Fate of the Galaxy Cruiser Scuffle

2 Carrack Cruisers from each side with fighter escorts go at it. This is my first vid showcasing the new shield icons, the prettier starfield, new weapon effects, a new scripted warpout effect (looks pretty sweet), and lastly, user selectable (and bindable) primary firepoint grouping.

Note the switches between 1x4 and 2x2. 4x1 is also available but I didn't feel like using it at the moment. Groupings are calculated dynamically at runtime per weapon bank.

Fate of the Galaxy is an in-development total conversion for the FreeSpace 2 Source Code Project. See http://swc.hard-light.net/ for more info or to talk with us in IRC (#scp-swc on EsperNet)

incredible !!!

[millenniumf1138]

This will be awesome! It's like the incredible graphics of Rogue Leader with the simulator aspects of the X-wing series. I can't wait!

I have the feeling that it's going to be a worthy X-Wing sucessor. :)

[Lu666Ka600AA]

This is like Star Wars X-Wing Alliance 2!

Can't wait for its release.

@ytmndman I suppose we could, but so far the consensus is that some newer, more refreshing music would be a welcome addition. For the most people the people that have heard our latest samples have agreed that they should do the justice, and then some.

@chief1223 What about remixes of the original music?

[chief1223]

@ytmndman Because that's the one that they tend to care about? Using the universe itself doesn't usually cause too much trouble, using previously released unmodified assets does often cause a problem. Distributing exact copies of the music would violate the copyright of the music. The universe itself is the IP of Lucasarts, but they have allowed works based on the universe to exist before, so we're not as worried about this causing a problem. Just can't do certain things.

@chief1223 If you're already using copyrighted spaceship designs, names, and such, why not music?
