      Just out of curiosity, were the Hawk's outfit graphics changed in 1.0.5b1? In full 1.0.5, only the large graphic for the fighter itself has been retextured, and I was wondering if it was done on the small and/or bay graphics in these beta graphics you've got.

      No.

      Indeed. I think the only third-party scenario that was developed before plugins was Star Wars: A New Alliance.

    • You can still destroy asteriods in version 1.0.5. You only need to create the most powerful weapon possible (beam weapon recommended) and use it against an asteroid for a long time.

      However, it's kind of pointless, since there isn't even an explosion.

      So what does happen? Does the asteroid simply disappear without even a sound effect? I'm curious, as I've never tried this myself.

      The asteroid just disappears. No sound effect, no eye candy, no boost to your combat rating. It doesn't even do any good, since the moment you destroy the asteroid, a new one floats off from the edge of the screen.

      no little secret weapon? (sniffle) no little easter egg of money? (whimper) no planets bow to you for your superior shooting? (all out bawling)

    • I used 1.0.1ƒ for about three years. I then was allowed on the internet, where I found Ambrosia's website while trying to find a plug-in. I then downloaded 1.0.5ƒ and I have been using that ever since. You know, I never really noticed that the graphics on the Fed wings changed. I guess I was to busy running.

      They're only changed in the shipyard and comm dialog shots. The sprites are the same as in 1.0.4. That's why I use the 1.0.5 beta 1 graphics file: it ~does~ have the updated sprites.

    • Perhaps is may be off the subject, but does anyone remember the terrible manta graphic (shipyard) in Escape Velocity version 1.0? I took a screenshot of it years ago, looked at is today, and was on the floor laughing. 🙂 I'm very thankful that Ambrosia decided to give many of the ships new graphics...
