What did you do in Empyrion today?

Those are really good.

 

Agreed. Bug Report worthy.

... While being too stupid to path Stairs any well...? That's kinda a tough sell there.

 

Hi all, relatively new player. Published my first blueprint to Steam recently and very interested on any feedback/comments/suggestions you may have. Hope you like it and appreciate any advice. Description of the ship and features is on Steam. Thanks.

DFV CV-5 Horizon

I've been working on my end-game BA which I've called "Midas Base". I just published it to the WS so feel free to use/abuse/critique as you see fit.

Here are some pics along with my favourite CV/SV/HV combo which are now also published.

 

Lovin that BA. Very cool weaving of the angled and curvature. Especially the rounded landing pads.

Nice, simple, utilitarian ship. Good work!

 

In fact, when you are done, post that to the workshop. I would love to take a look.

 

Front and underside are almost done. Painting, turret placement and a few thrusters will need a bit of nerfing.


Weight is at 50.4 kt for now

 

It is in the workshop.

The one thing I want to work on is the lighting.
I built it on a custom planet that doesn’t get very dark and when spawned in total darkness the interior need more light.

 

Playing around with a possible 4th variation of Crystal moon.

 

For some reason, some of the images make me think of the old Dune movie.

Not often you hear people talk about nerfing thrusters on a BP. Looks sweet.

 

Tomorrow (today?) I will go through and set the deco for the biomes and make a custom POI set for this moon using some of @piddlefoot's POIs from his amazing Lost City of Sol scenario.

The moon should have cloudy weather about half the time, and mostly clear the other half, providing two very different appearances, assuming I set it correctly.

For now I better head to bed.

 

Finally did a new video!
Here's the workshop link:

And here's the video:

 

Now as you have sayed it, i got the dune vibe from the used forms, too.
Almost like Sting has walked there!

Nerfing almost goes naturally while building. I like them with strong and a few week parts. So my brain has to adapt to the situation before me while playing. Perfectly balanced vessels aren't my cup of tea.

These screenies are a bit dark but i hope you can see enought.
The front top with details almost done

and somethink like the Enterprice bar...

 

I often leave a weakness in my designs for character.

The white fighter drift strafes excessively in combat for example.

 

Little progress on my Citadel Station. Retextured a bit the R level and added some more walls as placeholders. Future storage for reactor level equipment marked.

 

Back playing some Empyrion . Built a little Sv today out in the desert.

 

Converted 2 of @piddlefoot's POIs from his scenario for use in mine. Welcome to XCorp, a Zirax aligned top secret civilian research group. Their traders can be found scattered among other faction's POIs, selling rare and experimental equipment such as epic mining drills or heavy armor to anyone regardless of reputation. Their research and development operations are kept under heavy guard, however, and all feature a self regenerating shield generator and numerous ion turrets backed up by laser turrets.

 

2nd Picture reminds me of one of the PreFab-Starter Bases. A lovely conversion anyway

 

A fresh started "Dead-Planet-Food-Race". Without even a single seed of food you are really f'ed!
Again I found myself re-building one of the COMET Wrecks. This time a bit different.

I also found some weird POI's while in a mating ritual...
