Is SHTUP responsible for radioactive barrels? The texture on them says:

Caution


Danger
Radioactive
Material

To me "danger" after "caution" feels a bit redundant. Maybe "dangerous" instead of "danger" could work better?

CAUTION: Danger: Warning: This barrel is heavy! Oh and also radioactive or something

It's low-key bugged me for years that the PDA and keycard buttons on the HUD are in a different style from all the other buttons. Well no more!

probably intentional, but yeah, I like the fixed version better.

Fun Fact: The HUD icons for nanites, cybermods, the PDA, and keys are set by the gamesys instead of being baked into the interface graphics. The controlling gamesys objects are FakeNanites, FakeCookie, PDA Soft, and FakeKeys, respectively.

Interesting, but not terribly useful.

MFD being slightly bigger is what always bugged me

That and the fact that they keycard is just slightly too big for it's button

I wonder if this could be used to change the disk icon to have a star/exclamation mark etc if you have unlistened logs.

It's kind of amazing how approximate the automaps are when you pay close attention to them.



EDIT: This was supposed to have been posted in the SCP topic, not the SHTUP topic, d'oh.

Forgive me if this is the wrong place to ask, but I'm curious what the sources are for the images used for the magazines used in the SHTUP mod, specifically the old man one.

Unrelated, but for the sake of consistency, is the magazine shown on the far left of the attached image going to receive an update in the next update (assuming one is planned at some point)

Cheers!  :)

The old man is Jef Raskin, the "Father of the Mac".

Leather jacket guy is just some catalog model I found years ago in a Google image search.

I would have preferred to use the original high-res sketches for these covers by Gareth Hinds, but he probably lost them years ago.

Ah thanks. Had no idea it was someone so prolific. Going to read up on Raskin now.

There is always more people turning up deserving of Macintosh credit then we hear about in the mainstream associations.
I have heard of Wozniak but this is the first I have heard of Raskin.

Meanwhile Jobs seems to get most of the credit.

Playing around with making all the wall screens in the Citadel part of "Where Am I?" fullbright:

Original SS1:



SS2 + SHTUP:



I'll admit it looks nice in the above shot, but in larger areas with lots of wall surfaces that are supposed to be mostly dark, it makes Citadel look more like a disco than a research station.



I suppose to people with the aesthetic sensibilities of a teenager this all looks super-kewl, but Looking Glass clearly designed these wall panels with the intention that they'd only have a selective few blinkenlights twinkling here and there, so I'll be respecting that.

The plant on the left there could use a facelift. Or maybe it's just something you leave to Vurt perhaps.

SHTUP-ND updated to Beta 2.
- Up-rezzed some previously un-up-rezzed textures.
- Up-rezzed versions of new SCP Beta 5 textures.
- Up-rezzed and increased frame rate of all explosion bitmap animations, using the original explosion footage.
- Upgraded resolution of many previously upgraded textures.
- Increased frame rate of many animated textures.
- Reflective surfaces (screens mostly) now have environment maps.
- Improved small anti-aliased text font.
- Incorporates latest fixed models from Olfred's Fixed Objects v14.

Wow... I survived the simultaneous release of both SCS Beta 5 and SHTUP-ND Beta 2!

Seriously, thanks ZylonBane and happy new year.

Tiny hotfix posted to Beta 2. I accidentally made the metagame cursor the same color as the in-game cursor. Should be blue in the former, green in the latter.

If you'd like to patch your install to correct this instead of re-downloading the entire thing, just extract the contents of the attached archive into SHTUP's "intrface" folder.

Been lurking for a while and decided to give SHTUP-ND beta 2 a whirl. It is looking great and I noticed that on my side the UI doesn't look like your change above. Was this reverted in the latest version, or is this just a classic PEBKAC error?

..\SHTUP-ND beta 2\iface it seems like the mod files themselves are in the "old" style I'm seeing on my side, but  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I ended up not changing the PDA/keycard button style for various reasons.

Who says all the buttons have to be the same, even within the same grouping?



No taste! Looks to me like they wanted the MFD button to stand out, and from an aesthetic standpoint I prefer the original.

Still, I am poking at you over something largely subjective and extremely minor. Carry on.

Why is there no minimod for this at least?

It bugs me constantly
6667090c9824e
well I have to say, these textures look awesome. I want to play this game again but I have to check out what mods to use.
