    If you cropped out the extremely ugly spectator bars on the top and bottom of the screen and stopped taking pictures in first person, your pictures would improve 1 billion % dragonmech

    (nothing personal mind you)

    Yes guys..

    Please remember.. Niteowl isnt interested with pics which include swearing, any form of text, custom sprite/model material and anything modifyed. Just interesting and nice looking screenshots with JUST NS 3.0.

    Sorry if I ruffled your feathers niteowl. Hopefully these will suit you better:

    I got this one on accident, but I think it's a good shot of the radial menu.

    I've been shackled.. uh. I mean.. entrusted with bringing you the 3.0 bx manual. Work is about 65% done. However, I need the NS community's help!

    I need about 5 or so screenshots to put in the intro, as well as the Classic and Combat explanations. If your screenshot is chosen, you'll get credit in the manual and live on in posterity (or until another manual is made).

    Here are the shots I need:
    Alien
    in Combat
    in Classic

    Marine
    in Combat
    in Classic
    Commander mode looking at structures and marines.

    Make the shots really show off the mod, great action shots are what we are after. With that in mind please remember the following.
    -default models/skins/sprites/etc.
    -default maps.
    -no server csays and custom messages please. <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd-->
    Isn't that the Guides job? Why are you delegating responsibility for something you signed up to do?

    Take your personal crusade against the guides out of this thread. If you actually care about helping new players, you won't turn this into a drama fest and not derail this thread. Variety helps, and the guides *have* given Niteowl all these shots, he just wants more variety.

    Can we see the new manual as it gets updated? according to the 3.0 manual on the website it hasnt been changed since February. Which I assume isnt correct.

    I assume that many folks taking nifty looking screenshots will most likely get a better shot than me trying to get it on my own. It's also a way that the community can contribute to NS.

    Do you need diagrams? Someone needs to make an autocad image of the Nancy vents to illustrate the superior mobility allowed by skulks' smaller size and ability to go almost anywhere on the map.

    It would be really easy to take these pictures if there was a third person free roaming camera. Isn't there some trickery in console you can enter in order to get something like that? Because trying to take screenshots while playing side by side is a good way to be no help at all to your surrounding teammates, which they tend to resent.

    Anyone wanna start a 12 person sv_cheats photo-op server? <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> plz?

    The reason I ask about third person free roaming cameras is because you can illustrate things like how to hang just above a doorway waiting for a marine, with both the skulk and the marine further in the distance behind the doorway in the same shot. Or get into positions you wouldn't normally be able to playing as the other team or even playing at all and take all the shots you want.

    This would be great for gameplay articles, but not for this manual perse.
