    <span style='color:red'>Coil: shutup, will ya?</span>  In the last shot, that is the builder HUD, and the two aliens in sight are (left) placeholder Level3, and (right) Level4.

    The see-through thing doesn't affect performance at all.

    How are marines seen?  They're seen as normal, unless you get the upgrade - then they can stand out in the same way.  Remember, things only show up that way when your "flashlight" key is on.

    I only want to know what these "Energy" at the right side of the builder-HUD means. What do you use energy for and how do you get it? First i thought it was your health, but that is displayed at the lower left of the HUD...

    The Energy meter is something that all aliens have, and determines how much energy an alien player has to perform special attacks or use abilities.

    /me looks at sixth shot: "Hey, I'm famous!"

    An alien's "energy" is his "ammo" - all attacks use energy, as do some special abilities (blink and flight, for instance).  Building a structure requires resource points.

    Cyon: wasn't an attack at you; just making sure the forumgoers get their facts straight.  (:

    /me tries to desguise the n00b question

    What does RC1 mean?

    Because NS is 'feature complete' does that mean that only maps need to be tested and de-bugged?

    If so, how long will each map take?

    How many maps will make final release?

    Why does the level 3 still have a placeholder? When can we see the level 3 for real? How long will it take to implement him?

    How does resource points for alien buildings work? Does the builder use his own rsonal resource points?

    Do all alien abilities need to be researched or are some auto-equipped?

    RC1 == Release Canidate 1

    What we're waiting for now is artwork, models, tweaks (minor additions, bugfixes, and adjustments to things like damage levels and the like) and just making sure all the maps work, and are complete.

    <span style='color:red'>**Removed because of blabby Coil**</span>

    And on the subject of the see-through models: that's a default HL look. Just set an alien slave model(or whatever HL alien suits your fancy)to additive in WC before you compile. you'll see what I mean.

    The see-through vision looks a little odd in the screenshots, but I'm sure it looks really cool ingame.
    <span style='color:red'>**removed because of blabby Coil**</span>
    In the 3rd and last shots, that's supposed to be Pudgy? But Pudgy has hooves, not claws :\

    About the builder HUD, I think SpyderMonkey suggested in my reply that is isn't finished ... but I'd rather have someone confirm that since I know diddly squat.

    Ohhh, Coil was bad.

    Of coarse I wasn't on when Coil was "blabby," I was off helping my friend get his comp working right.

    Prophecy: The flyer is currently a placeholder model, it'll change once they animate the existing real flyer model.
