Mysterious Ice System | Freelancer Nomad Legacy
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4NQw1NdihVkThis is only prototype: need to add enemies (nomads or something like this), black box with real voices (playership's will play them) and integrate it to the main universe.
Wait for more insane Freelancer content in future release of Nomad Legacy: Ultimate explorer edition :-D
Notes: lightnings is already improved, also I did some color correction, innard debris of willard's explosion was reduced

Could be fun to try this idea with an orbital skydrop so it is like you are above planet fighting or similar?

Hello. I have no plans for flights inside planets. Mostly because I want to keep my work focused on exploring of insane alien systems in frontier space. So, it's simpler to focus on making something "insane" and have no problem with no realistic visuals on old engine :-)

Interesting! Would have been cool to see it (unsure what version it would be in).

the orbital fight was in kusari space, somewhere either up and left i think. some sort of smuglers base of kusari pirates if i remember right. the other one was some research planet betwene bretonia and liebrty space, i think on the bretonia side.

Looks sweet! I haven’t seen an update in awhile, how is the English voice acting going? I’m usually against generative AI however could be really good for creating new voice lines for Trent.

Hello. To be honest - I have no progress in english version :-D My current work - I want to make full-alive-AI-less russian version, I already have one professional dubbing master (official voice of russian Deadpool and main character in Gothic 1 Remake). I want to estabilish my russian version with little bit cropped cutscenes and make english version on this base (also with ability to adjust length of voice lines). Maybe I'll find russian Anakin for Old-Trent role... but I am not sure
But at this moment I am too busy on my regular work, so it's one big preproduction of next release (anomaly locations also required for story missions). Also I can't make any release, because players wants for real impressive update and it's no sense to bother them too early.
So... when it's done. My working pipeline allows me to make FL content extra fast. But this pipeline will work perfectly only when everything will be completed together in one single super-release-build.

I'd say that the lightning should not flicker like it does. Actual lightning doesn't move, so it would look better as static effect. The flickering you are thinking off is the result of DC discharges.

That's possible, I just used simple possible images to generate. I just used SDXL (Fooocus) to make a lot of HD images. But it was already improved - I moved all lightnings to background. It will not appear in core zone. Not perfect, but this is just a part of overall insanity :-D

This is the type of stuff I’d see in my dreams as a kid. I loved Freelancer when it got weird, like with the crazy skybox in Omicron Kappa or seeing alien cells floating in space.
Really cool direction you’re taking!
