      Rather then guess, I might as well ask. What angle from the horizontal are nova graphics rendered at?

      Nevermind... I guess it really is 45 degrees. I've tried 10, 30 and 45, and out of those 45 looked to be by far the closest to Nova's graphics. If anyone's interested I can make my test renders available.

      I'd be very interested in seeing your test renders.

      Any news on the EV:MP project? I still play build 13 every once in a while, but Nova adds many of the nice features in it.

      Welcome back, kberg.

      If anyone is interested in the Mech canmera angles that seem the closest to me to Nova's graphics, I've been using either
      x 0
      y 1.5
      z -2
      or
      x 0
      y 3
      z -4
      Anything to those proportions seems right. I have two(almost three) shans done for Rift and they seem pretty darn good.

      Correct. I asked the same question a while back and I believe it was someone from ATMOS who confirmed that it was 45 degrees.

      Isn't there a field in the nova shan resource that one can garner this information from? The Up/Dncompress?

      The Up/DnCompress fields only affect the calculation of weapon exit points. They are not related to anything, merely gotten by trial and error.

      I would find the original topic, but that would be a waste of time.
