    Does that mean i have to paint over my pwetty black skins ?
    I'm inclined to find a good pvp server soon, and i just checked my ping with red vs blue, wich is 163 ...:eek:
    So if you don't mind, i'll keep that gauntlet till some better playfields cross our paths.
    May that elemental spirit guide you & not consumate you in to false definitions. ;)

    Hi guys. Could somebody refresh my memory on how to attach a blueprint to your post in this forum? I think I can remember how to add images, but the blueprint attachment part eludes me. I think they need to be zipped, right?

    Zip yes, then drag and drop onto the reply box and it should upload (any modern browser). Otherwise you need to go to "Upload a File" or "More Options..." and find the upload mechanism there.

    You can find your blueprints in your steamapps/common/Empyrion - Galactic Survival/Saves/Blueprints/(some number)/(name of blueprint)/

    Zip the whole 'name of blueprint' folder (it contains a .epb and .jpg).

    Alright, that explains that quite nicely. Thanks! I'm glad you added the part about what exactly to zip, because I was wondering about that too. Awesome.

    Afterthought edit: I see a lot of workshop links. Can you also just link to your Steam Workshop page in lieu of the zip file method?

    You can, for other players. However to be considered by Eleon, I am not entirely sure if they accept workshop link posts instead of the raw blueprint files? They need to chime in on that.

    You have a penchant for answering questions floating in my mind before I even asked them lol. (about Eleon's acceptance criteria) I really appreciate that piece of info. I'll have to sort out my zip issue.

    Ok, I think I got this Noir Cruiser blueprint uploaded properly. Didn't seem like I could add it to the above post with an edit, so, here 'tis.

    Good looking ship 68plex. I gotta say though when i first saw it, it immediately reminded me of a squirt gun, or a nerf gun XD

    Ha Ha. Yeah, I see what you mean. It's kinda got that 50's retro sci-fi feel to it, like something you'd see the Fallout Boy from the RPG of the same name flying lol! That's why I named it Noir. I'll say this though, it's no squirt gun when it comes to wreaking havoc on drones!

    So I made the First Order Transporter (aka Atmospheric Assault Lander) from Star Wars: The Force Awakens. I have virtually no idea how to precisely allocate thrusters and RCSs but w/e. It actually handles pretty well. No idea if what I did for thrusters is overkill or not. If anyone has any ideas about that I'm all ears.

    Try to include the ship statistics page and building cost requirements pages when posting on steam workshop. Just a tip from someone who has seen how much it helps when publishing stuff. People like to look at their stats and see for them selves if its something that fits their requirements, those two pages makes it alot easier for them to do that =).

    Aside from that. Cool looking replica, i like your interior work, but those 3 sets of fuel tanks are gonna make a large hole when they get shot XD. Poor guy in the last row seat LOL.

    Done and done!

    Yeah, didn't really have any other place to put them :-/. I had already thrown some extra armor around that area because of the core and cockpit so I ended up just up-armoring the hull exterior around that entire section on all sides. Hopefully with all of the hardened steel buffs it should make it a bit tougher.

    But if anyone has any ideas on a good relocation of the fuel cells I'm all ears.

    I dont include those things, as I like to let people discover it for themselves ;) Adds a little mystery to something they are visually interested in.

    Doh! That reminds me, I keep forgetting to Update my Workshop Page for the Tyrax Dragonet & other Creations with that info. Shame Steam Workshop can't Automate that.

    UPDATE 16 JUN 16:
    Changed a few things. There's now real glass in front of the cockpit for working first-person which is nice. Added downward facing spotlights to the bottom of the craft for better night operation. Currently two there and I may even upgrade to four to really flood the ground. Not sure yet. I also up armored the interior in both versions by lining the backs of the passenger pods with thin plates. Then I went around and numbered each pod inside and out so you can keep track of who's in what seat if you really want.

    -------------------------------------------------

    Well, I wanted something small and Star Wars Galactic Empire themed for the BLG server so I decided to make the K79-S80 Imperial Reconnaissance Troop Transporter!

    There are two versions here, regular and hardened steel. Seats six dismounts and a pilot. The interior features all of the usual amenities and the armament consists of one 15mm minigun and two 135mm rocket launchers.

    The cockpit on both is fully enclosed. I could have made it work if there were L-shaped glass plates but as it sits I only would have been able to have a single glass panel dead center so I said F it.

    The regular steel version is very resource-lite and easy to construct so it would make a great early game shuttle.

    Regular steel: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=701227174
    Hardened steel: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=701222404

    Mission Log: Outpost Recovery Evactuation

    Enemy: Scarab Legion Wyrm and Stryker Platoon

    Stardate: 2492

    Location: Sector 38, -1022, 405

    =====================================================
    CLASSIFIED
    =====================================================

    Our Lorien Skydrone assembly plant is under heavy assault by the rebel legion.
    Lorien forces are in need of assistance, please re-direct your route to sector 38,-1022,405
    and provide emergency air to surface reconnaissance.

    and escort protection the Lorien Federation Evac Shuttles while they attempt to leave contested airspace.

    This is a grave hit to Lorien's drone factory and it will not go unnoticed. When EVAC is successful, please retrieve any remaining parts and remove any additional Scarab Filth from whats left of our plant with extreme predjudice.

    This is your mission comrade: become a hero of the federation.. or die a legend.


    ======================================================
    END MISSION LOG
    ======================================================

    This is the X-9 Nova Mid Class Fighter

    Vessel is designed with heavy cargo capacity and a strong body.

    Both fuel systems are completely isolated in the wings to prevent any unneeded destruction of the main vessel. Due to vessels currently not requiring structural integrity, the wings do not need to be directly connected to the body, This gives it a unique look as well as some benifiets in pvp and drone fighting. This vessel IS intended for survival =)

    ===============================================
    Most important stuff is located internally, Pressing P to go to the control panel and selecting boxes is a must!
    ===============================================

    This is the Lorien Federation. This faction is the direct rival and antagonist to the rebel Scarab Legion. I will be producing a steady line of both for players to use in wars as well as RP. Please subscribe and give a thumbs up if you enjoy my work and want to see more! Without you, we cant achieve success!

    Remember, modifications and re-uploads of any Scarab or Lorien Federation ship is strictly prohibited unless you have contacted me and provide the proper credit or mentions. I love to see modifications and changes done to my content, just make sure to ask first!

    *Looks at your Hull Blocks placed DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE ROCKET LAUNCHERS & one of the Holes that fires Rockets & Initiates the Double Facepalm...* :eek: o_O

    I'm starting to think people should have to pass a professional Rocket Launcher Course & earn a License to use them...
