Your friend is spot-on. The CG in series one is made up of short clips here and there. By the middle of season two the CG really leaps forward. It's used to create entire locations for the actors (e.g. Mars) as well as many space and hyperspace scenes. The amount of destruction laid on in CG is quite excellent, massive ships and space stations getting chopped up by CG ships that are ... scary.
At one point I heard B5 held the record for the largest number of spaceships shown in a scene. I don't know if that's true but I can certainly believe it.
