Have a great idea for the current or a future game? You can post it in the [L3+] Ideas forum.

X4 is a journey, not a destination. Have fun on your travels.

A couple screenshots of the new Crystal Fab L stations. (I get the feeling I've seen this kind of station before, but I can't place it.) There's a normal crystal fab near the L for comparison.

There's a new Screenshot of the Week online :) This time it was shot by me. I actually was just testing my new gfx card driver where I made this screenshot. I wanted to make the reward of the Treasure Hunt plot, which has been added in 2.1, to this week's SotW, but this could have spoiled too much, so I had to switch to another screenshot. I hope you guys can understand that :)

My own ones. I'm modifying the game look cause i don't like how big are the stars in the vanilla game. The use of enhanced goggles its not an option for me. I doubled the size of star textures for the entire game and now i dont see the skybox so close to my nose. Then i made some changes to the backgrounds, city lights and some teladi and split arts.
Now the split have green lights and teladi yellow ones , more alien looking and diverse. Its a question of taste and fantasy.

See you in space

The shipyard in Queen's Redemption is always worth a snapshot or three.

You've inspired me to try and pose a few ships with it, see if I can get something out of it. :)

wow, at that resolution, Terre - you should go for some "speck-in-the-distance" shots..
- you'd get a tremendous sense of depth..

- I love those dances the ships do when they dock in exterior-camera view..
- a few vids of those, set to the Blue Danube would make a nice montage.. :D

An explanation as to what/who the exchange is between, would help describe MadGizmos' image; is anything known?

An Angel in Queen Retribution.

MadGizmo's screen shows an Agamemnon in an UFJD sector fighting against a Xenon K. Hope now it's easier to understand what it is.
