Lego Shipyards

[Keptick]

Very very nice, the way you wedged the surface is a bit weird though, you should try using pentas/tetras to make it smoother (unless you like it this way, of course).

I would say that did it because I like it that way; but in all honesty, I just can't be bothered and has a nice effect as is. :3

Those are really great shots of the sun, you might want to remove the ships though, the kinda block the sight:p.

There will be a download up for Olympus in about a week, Prometheus will be up at a later date.

Awesome ships! How do you take such beautiful pictures?

He probably has all the graphic mods then edits the images.

What if I told you that no mods were used, and none of the images were edited in post. :3

That would be a straight up lie xD

The thing is though, they aren't really screenshots. All of the images for this post were rendered out using cycles in blender. :D

And it shows. To good eyes at least. xD
[The graphics are too vivid to be generated within StarMade xD]

If only it were possible...
We could make awesome movies with graphics this good

My guess is if LegoRobot17 posted how long it takes to render one frame it would become obvious why we don't have graphics this good in game...

We can come a bit closer than we are now, though, but at the cost of playability for lower-end computers (like mine). That said, a few things, like optional Depth of Field, along with properly-modeled stars and large planets (See the 'island planet' suggestion someone had) would definitely help this game look better at minimal cost if implemented right. (DoF might cause framerate loss, but can be disabled, so not an issue)

Graphics this good are totally possible for a game like this, just not in an engine that isn't meant to render in realtime.

This is FANTASTIC work!! wish i had half of your talent! .... and as soon as i figure out how to "like" this, i'm going to lol

I want beams like that in StarMade! Awesome work.

I doubt that a block based game would run very well with graphics like that (other games like Fractured Space running in Unreal4 can pull that off)
