Title: Planet Lander Exploration View Post by: storyteller on October 04, 2003, 03:35:53 pm Hi there!
good work, you've done, and are still doing. i think i have a suggestion for you to do an addon. i would do it myself, but i lack the time for that enterprise so: what about doing the large planet exploration view where you're moving the lander around into voxels? a voxel engine should be easy in c++ the back of the planet lander should be billboarded in 3rd person view or omitted if 1st person view please state your opinion Title: Re: Planet Lander Exploration View Post by: Chrispy on October 04, 2003, 06:48:08 pm well u said it fancily, but i understand right that u want the planate lander view behind the cockpit. i like it, but it doesnt fit starcontrol. u need the ability to c behind you.

Not if you used the entire screen and installed a radar screen or even a radar overlay. It is a bit of a departure form SC2, but IMO it's worth investigating.
