In case anyone missed this

Higher quality ship images and sound effects are now available for download.

ooo purdy!

When I first saw you do all this HD-addicted shit, I thought you're too enthusiastic with all of it.

Now I see you in a new light, similar to Arobas+.

Gotta try out. :P

Can we see some screenshots?

[Stabwound]

Uhhhhh, this isn't HD. The ship graphics, from what I can see, are pixel-for-pixel identical to the stock ones that come with Continuum. I don't even notice a single difference when using them in-game. Don't install this thinking you're going to have high definition graphics...

Uncompressed example:

Someone really should make an HD graphics pack for Continuum, though.

[Cojafoji]

Yeah, there's literally no difference.

[Xog]

Some of the previous graphics included in Continuum, in comparison to their originals, had hue and tone differences with GIF-like compression artifacts (just a mixture and different combination of factors). For the most part, the graphics were not as affected as were the sounds.

The newer graphics remove a lot of the artifacts created by compression.

Yeah, I understand what this is supposed to be, but calling it "HD" was pretty misleading, because I thought this was going to be high definition graphics like the HD remakes of old games on xbox live and whatnot.

i should note that i didn't actually look at the graphics before i made my initial comment, hah.

i was at work. couldn't download the files and take a look.

sorry.

The sound effects are much much better in quality than before.

[Turban]

ITT: Turban knows how to read other people's posts.

ITT: Turban doesnt give a damn at 6:00AM :wub::wub::wub:

^EDIT^

also, Stab wanted someone to "make better looking graphics" so I gave it a shot. blow me.

[Bioture]

I play continuum for the graphics!

[Nockm]

I haven't tried it out, but removing the transparent bit from the terr would be good.

Also nice to see the term HD misused, as ever.
