Yeah, there's a dropship that was upped by Hristareya - check it out http://empyriononline.com/posts/36166/
Man you are ambitious! The Wraith = EPIC I can picture the Wraith as a highly maneuverable SV, the pulse weapon would be great, if only there were red lasers too, in addition to the blue. That Siege Tank is interesting though, I wonder if this is something that will/can be added in-game. A vehicle that can 'transform'. The Siege Tank was awesome in Starcraft 1, I remember positioning those things right in front of the entrance to my base, alongside rocket turrets and bunkers. Transform the tanks into 'Siege Mode' and it wreaked havoc on any incoming ground troops! Good luck with your progress on the Battle Cruiser. Please share your progress if you don't mind. Thanks! Edit: Was browsing through some Battlecruiser pics and came across some really nice ones!
Nice keep us posted on the progress please The battlecruiser might just be my choice CV in survival, if it ever comes to fruition that is! Haha Hopefully some additional armor/suit sets are added to the game too. I can envision some customization / modding craziness lol
I have only just now downloaded it, but my guess is it needs more RCS's and maybe power ok, I added RCS, Power and thrusters, see how it feels to you now
My attempt at a Minbari Nial-class heavy fighter. Edit: Forgot something on the bottom two wings, made it more maneuverable, and changed the weapons.
I liked this model . Others do all sorts of varieties of spaceships , and here - a flying pickup. Hope is version of CV as a large truck I took the Takean's model and made a restyling.
Ooh i like the idea of putting the cockpit behind Glass... that looks way cooler than a standard spaceship cockpit
Here mate, Show you what someone showed me! I did not touch your design. I left everything (except gun) as is. I added 3 rcs units in key points. Judge for yourself
This is the current progress of the Battlecruiser a collective of us is trying to get the interior design of it accomplished. The layout and the design of this current ship is by The Admiral. We are close to completion just have to add the aesthetics, color, interior and create the rooms. Don't mind the names that are collided inside the ship. That's our hangar and some of us are trying to get the docking pad to work properly.
Wow! Man u guys have skillz!! That looks AMAZING. can't wait to see how you guys spruce it up with colors and some lights and how you integrate the weapons. Thanks for sharing excellent job so far to you and your team good sir! Please keep us updated I'm itching to try it out. I can only imagine how many iron ingots would be required to create that behemoth!
Designed a new SV in survival today. She is a beast. "Floats like a butter fly, stings like a bee." She comes with 4 gattling guns, a constructor, 02, 3 cargo boxes 1 ammo box, 2 fuel pods. I give you the Bumble Bee -She has a hell of a sting.
Looking good so far... i am trying my hand at same design, but alas i am doing it alone so im focusing on frontal exterior detail currently. The bull head section has alot of detail in its contour, so i been playing around with diff blocks to acheive it.
OK for SV's I've noticed you will need 1 RCS per 2 tons of weight to keep it very nimble. Also the length and width of your ship will have a drastic effect on its maneuverability as well. Simply put, the heavier your ship, the more RCS units you will need to keep it turning faster than a cruise ship and also, the more blocks built outwards from center you build will also require more RCS units.
Found something in my research might help when you go to build that, https://www.google.com/imgres?imgur...d=0ahUKEwjd6-_xm8_KAhULyYMKHQ3qD2kQMwhFKB4wHg just incase you are interested
Ya thanks, I was contemplating on what the interior layout was going to be, I build all my ships in survival so since i plan on doing it along the scale of my leviathan I've been working on collecting all the resources I need. guessing it to be around 25 to 30 k iron unless it doesn't feel quite right. That and the motivation lol I do have a pretty slick layout planed for it, ill post it in the cap bp's when i finish it. Guessing sometime Sunday if I get the creative juices flowing ^^ I'll post here though some pics if you want once the hull starts coming along.
Ok this is just very sad, disturbing, and kinda ironically funny. I got the idea to honor the Challenger Shuttle by making one. WELL.... I had it completely almsot done, cheated CV large thrusters for appearence and all, all i had left to do was put a core in and save the BP. Well moment i placed core whole dang thing powered up on its own and exploded off my construction dock straight into a mountain. By the time i caught up with it, it had been almsot totally destroyed, fuel tanks and engines going boom........... Now all thats left is wreckage on side of mouuntain, so to respect the Challenger I will not be putting pictures of it up. I just had to tell this story what happened. Unless ppl absolutly have to see whats left.
cheers for posting this, i had thought it was best to place them along the center line at each end preferably, but basically your placing them at points as far away from the core as the ship will allow?
Yes as far from the core I think all 6 axis work but 3 is usually enough. the nose is definitely a must.
