The Skate reminds me of a space butterfly. What a beautiful craft, unless of course you show up red on my radar

Pretty nice..

Some recent screenshots in the past 2 days.
Havent been taking screenshots alot lately. But then, I havent been playing much lately either.
Screenshot one looks like a UFO flying over the house on a rainy night, lol..
Screenshot two looks shows a fantastic shot of a nebula covering a planet or moon. I had to grab a snap of that. Really cool looking area in that sector.
Screenshot four looks like the cover of a SciFi book. I caught that planet and solar sunrise and moon in 'almost' perfect alignment. Its funny how you will enter a system from the jump gate and never look behind you. Then, when you go to leave and turn around, there is the MASSIVE blue or tan world right there, filling up the sky, and you never saw it, lol..

Wow man, that last shot is simply brilliant, good job Mr Eyebrows
Leaving the shipyard in my Skate
Marlin,
That is one really wild looking bird. It has to be the most different of all the craft in the game.
How is it on firepower? Is it considered a corvette or a fighter or heavy fighter?

Awesome looking ship Marlin.
Side note:
Now I can see how all you guys have such great looking screenshots. With my new 23" LCD Widescreen I can now run at a much higher resolution and get the same look..... 1920x1080. I'm still using the GF6800XTreme GPU, but it sure brings out the details much clearer now with this new monitor. :d

My first shot...
wooo hoooooo!
Docking at the main Argon Free Trade Station. I never get tired of looking at those things. Sometimes I try to fly between those huge rotating arms when I accellerate away from them (stations). I have been hit though, lol....
Mason, if you get a chance, go out into space in your ship and stop, aim your craft at the planet and just watch the clouds move. They have shadows on the planet's surface, and the work itself will be turning slightly a different direction. The planet is also bump mapped and has 3D mountain ranges and craters.
If you get as far as finding Earth and the Terran sectors, you have to find Jupiter and check it out. it has stripes of mini hurricanes going in the opposite direction of the planets rotation.. Wild stuff. .

It is either Shft H or Ctrl H to turn off all the HUD symbols.
Don't forget, you can get out of your ship and fly around with your camera. To view the outside without having to actually get out, F2 and 8 2 6 4 on the keypad to move the camera + and - to move the camera closer and further.
Congrats on getting it going.
Now this is getting pretty cool looking
Thanks
dang..my pics won't upload ...
Gonna try another pic ...Not sure where this is, I forget what its called..But its cool...
Outstanding HM
This one is for Bill and I titled it "GUNS"
This one is titled, "Claiming another one"
It sure is nice to get out of the cramped cockpit and fly around freestyle in space every once and a while if only to claim a new ship or repair the damage.
I hope you like em.
EDIT; I forgot to mention that there are still two gun slots that are not filled yet.

Man...I like *Guns* cool looking ship....
Took a few shots tonight while out looking for 'boogahs'..
Took possesion of a pirate fighter craft from a pirate that wanted life more then death in a ball of fire. Fixed it up, installed some nice equipment. Tuned its engine and retro's, then I took that thing for a hyper jump to the farthest point accross the Galaxy and toodled around a bit, then returned to base and parked it to the HQ fighter defense fleet.
Love it... :d

OK here is my latest addition the Heavy Centaur, talk about a nice ship...
This thing rocks, it is loaded for Bear, and has a good size cargo hold, the speed is not quite as fast as the Vidar, but this thing is nice, and check out the scanner dish on the lower stern, I have not compared but I would say the scanning and com range is better on this ship, it looks like it has better gear on the outside any way.
In the attached shot I am bringing it back to my HQ to be ripped apart to make blueprints out of, I want a few of these in the fleet.
I am still working on preparing my fleets, I had to go with 2 seperate sectors and fleet groups, I ended up with the system grinding to a hault when I got too many of my own ships in one sector. It was not FPS, it was MPF (Minutes per frame...lol) I guess I have been collecting too many ships and got carried away, I am getting rid of the junkers now and putting things in order to start the GiGa-Campaign "Ultimate Control" of the XUniverse" well that or domonation of a sector or two at least...lol
