Too much red in ship interiors
System
Member, NoReporting Posts: 178,019 Arc User
I know the Klingons have red consoles and such inside their ships, and there were some episodes showing this, but... it's overdone in the game in my opinion. They also had some orange consoles and such in the shows/movies.
But the overall feeling/lighting on the Klingon ship interiors feels *too* red. Can this be reduced a little bit please devs? I'm not saying get rid of it, just reduce it a little and add a little more normal lightning.
Look at the interior of Martok's bird of prey on DS9. Hardly any red in comparison to what we have in game. Can we more closely match Martok's BoP's interior lightning/coloring please?
Thank you.

Even the IKS Amar, our first look inside a Klingon ship was not exclusively red.

There is blue, green even a little yellow.
Especially due to the enhanced budget, Klingon ship interiors became more sophisticated over the years.
As did the computer consoles.
The interiors and equipment should look a lot more like this:

Sure, it's darker than a typical Federation ship, but it's grey, brown and the interfaces are a combination of red, yellow and green.
And I'm pretty certain they'd take as much time to create as the red ones we currently have, they'd just have to switch the colours from red to green and yellow occasionally while doing them.

I like the lighting and style on the K't'tinga from the Undiscovered Country film. Less dark and red, but still had a Klingon feel.
Do you have Anti-aliasing turned on? I had these same horrible glowing bits until I finally turned of Anti-aliasing and I'm running a 8800 GTX, so not like I've got a trash vid card, but something tells me it's a problem with the coding.
Nah, it's just that i have the bloom settings too high lol
Yeah I played with that too, but I still had this weird glowing ring around my character every time I went to Earth Station, the graphics glitches on here are what annoy me most.
And for cripes sake, add some normal lighting in Klingon engineering...That plus the exposed warp core makes me feel as though the ship could blow up at any time...Oh yes, I think my character standing next to the exposed warp core helped kill my gfx cards a bit...
I could definitely go for a bit more change in the interiors and bridges as far as lighting goes...perhaps to the motion picture idea.....But then again, what do I know...lol
When I walk into the mess hall and stand by the trophy wall you can barely see across the room it is so dark and murky. I need to see where my gagh is to make sure none of it crawls away
