My 2 cents is that I care more about game play and new GVs/AC than "improved" graphics.  I also care about frame rate.  There are other games out there which emphasize graphics, usually at the cost of plausible flight / vehicle models.  Their rationale is that the majority of naive users will never notice so long as the graphics are snazzy-looking, and they are probably right, unfortunately.  Let's not go down that road.

I don't have a "greater than God" computer either. However, he is talking about updating a few of the minor things. Hit sprites, and (for me) colors of tracers, which I like the idea of the historic colored values that moot posted  :aok .

They aren't talking about FULL UBAH UPGRADE UPDATE OF DA GRAPHACS like a few others have been.

Just clearing it up for you and anyone else.

Respectively,

Tinkles

Here's one example of what I have in mind. Notice the ball turret firing towards the end of the clip.

Well...he was right. I wasn't asking for any huge environment/terrain graphic updates. I was asking for what I believe would be a relatively low impact modernization of the gun fire, hit sprites, water splash, etc. Guess HTC could throw it in as an option if it did end up causing problems with some rigs.

Tinkles, He is saying -1 because he wants to look cool around the people who have bad computers.

I'd like to see the correct tracer colors for each gun, and new hit sprites wouldn't be a bad thing either.  :aok

I have created everything the OP asked for but I dont think HTC would use them if submitted.

you should ask them, if it sames them time, and is workable, why not?
