If you have, in Linux, 2 XF86 servers running on a ti 4200 and switch between them, you get the most amazing effect in vendetta. I call it GIANT ROID-LIKE SHIPS! http://www.roguelazer.com/Giant_Roids/

Enjoy!

Updated with pics of the station. Please note also that in some sectors (5), everything is invisible, including your ship, other ships, roids and stations. I did not post pics of this, but have them if anyone wants them.

You can also get that to happen by doing alt-ctrl-keypad + and alt-ctrl-keypad minus (switching video modes on the fly). It's a NVidia vertex buffer feature. I'm bugging our NVidia contact about it.

Nice feature. What's that one?
