cell shadeing has been added activated via the comand line '-cell',
3D shockwave models, and a transparency method I'm calling edge and center alpha that could be usefull for other things, ask for details
useing a phong lighting model I have made specular highlights
that are mapped to the model,
rendering them is still slow, but they look real purdy
also 4 new (untested) comand lines, the XX is a floating point value
-spec_exp XX
the n value, you can set this from 0 to 200 (actualy more than that, but this is the recomended range), it will make the highlights bigger or smaller, defalt is 16.0 so start playing around there
-spec_point XX
-spec_static XX
-spec_tube XX
these are factors for the three diferent types of lights that FS uses, defalt is 1.0,
static is the local stars,
point is weapons/explosions/warp in/outs,
tube is beam weapons,
for thouse of you who think any of these lights are too bright you can configure them you're self for personal satisfaction
collideshipweapon.cpp line 262, beam.cpp line 2771, and modelinterp.cpp line 2949.
it needs a better renderer, but is in prety good shape for now,
I also (think) I squashed a bug in the warpmodel code
