MUCH less ambitious attempt, please criticize

Archives for ships and fleets. 'nuff said. Most of the ships here are very very old and will not work in current versions of BSF or SM. You have been warned!

How do you turn off the ship glow? I've only been able to change it to gray, which funnily enough is what it's at right now. I will try to find a color that doesn't turn brown, though.

Pitch black glow color is about as close as you get to disabling it.

In BSF, go to Options > glow. Set it to off. Alternately, set it to black either through the INI file or in BSF > Options > Color (Click the button til you get to "Ship Glow").

Here's a picture withought the glow, but dim for some unknown reason. Same question though; should I use Commodore's colorscheme or try to find another?

By the way, I really am curious about which engine people prefer, normal or double-aegis.

I'm no master of coloring, but I would change either the light blue to a darker gray or lighter red, or change the dark red border to blue or something.

Also, a lot of those weapons look like they were just stuck on as an afterthought.

No afterthoughts, I just use different criteria as to where my guns belong :D. Does the new color work better?

Oh, and since no-one's offered an opinion, I'm doing the double-aegis after this.

Yeah, that color works a lot better.

As for the engines, I think they look fine as-is.

That colorscheme is great.
