Redo all ships windows to give the ship size some credit.

They should really reamp all windows on most of all the ships, cause they don't give a good look on the ectual size of the ship.

Take the Miranda class and Constitution Refit class, they have three windows at the front of the saucer section; Given the look that the saucer section only have one floor when it is in reality about 3-4 floors.

We can see on the new revamp AOY conny that it has been some improvement in terms of technology of the engine when it comes to windows to make it more grand.

    You do know you can alter most ship windows don't you!?

    Your ship is actually small. The Space stations and stuff you're comparing it to are all done in ground scale. Even in the foundry, all space stations are ground scale. The odd thing is. The ground scale for the space stations are smaller than a alot of the ground scale ships. Bu this is understandable, since to do an actual ground scale of a space station. Would mean that the station itself became the map.

    Take the new ESD for example. It's ground map is small. In the foundry you can spawn outside of it, and see the ESD interior. You can easily fit a few starships within just the upper dome of ESD.

    altering changes their shape....generally and excluding cases like the intel skins for example that hide them. He is pointing out that the various window skins we use for altering windows could use an update.

    I suspect they are as they are due to minimum graphics resolutions. Whereas PCs on the higher end would have no issue showing a model with that level of detail, the min requirements may not and defaulting to this is preffered over 2 or 3 different models for the clients..not saying that can't be done, as it is in World of Tanks for example.

    I think we're getting a little OCD here....
    Nothing breaks the tension better than a tankard of warnog - except maybe a good brawl...

    I have a GTX 980ti so I'm fine with doubling the graphics requirements to add extra teeny tiny windows.

    People with under-$500 graphics cards might be less happy :)

    Maybe they should use Apple for scale
