I'd rather have no cloaking effect as it annoys the heck of me when ship comes onto my scanner range. Besides, I'd imagine if one want to cloak or uncloak, fancy light effects would be unwanted.

Well its there in the game files if anyone wants to change their cloak effect from the standard one.

I find this effect more in keeping with light - medium size battleships that cloak/decloak, since the length and diameter of the effect is about the same as that of a Dunkirk / Dread or Osiris, and its so pretty <3

Fairly sure that's the Osiris cloaking effect from vanilla Freelancer.

Yeah that's ossie cloak fx. However effects are per cloaking device type, not per ship. Ossie special fx was played via campaign scripts which could just attach and play anything to anywhere.

This is true Smile, but I think it looks great on a Battleship Mounted Cloak. Its something different Tongue

could probably be set as the Wilde cloak honestly--

It looks human, but its got Nomad coloration...

almost poetically perfect if you ask me

All cloaks are made with nomad parts anyway, I don't see why they wouldn't be in Nomad colours.

Maybe because we were hinted somewhen in the past that this gonna change and nomnom materials gonna be replaced with something else in order to make people quit farming nomads with their 22 turrets of neutrality mounted on a colony ship.
