Greetings everyone:

This will be my first post on the HLP forums.

I got this idea, but it is a little weird, so bare with me...

Some friends and I are doing a *ahem* "lego space based story"
I know, I know, it's lego, but hell, it's useful!( I built an Orion once!)

I came up with a WHOLE lota ships, from cruisers, to battleships, and a Flagship(like the Collossus, but not so much eye candy, if you think 30+ beams is eye candy, bet wear eye glasses, lol)

But, they have an enemy, The Vhishnue, a diabolical alien race, which is numeruos in size, but they aren't like the shivans, they can be killed/massacred, but they can still kick butt, they don't have a flagship, but the have LOADS of cap ships, cruiser, corvettes, and a ship called a "BattleDestroyer", with the same capabilities of a Battleship.

So, I'm just warmin' up, I would like(if it is possible) for some of the modelers out there, if they have the chance, to make some(not all, dear god, there's like...30 different ships!) of the ships from it, I'm gonna give the url soon, hold on.

What ships, easy, for the ITA(good guys)
 2 cruiser:Superior, and Toho
 1 corvette: Dagger
 1 Battleship: Draco 2
 3 fighters/bombers: Herculanium MK2, Hawker, and Raptor

 And for the VE(Bad guys)
2 cruisers: Thunder(not named after the guy, sry thunder), Lightning
1 corvette: Fensilling(don't tell me how I figured that one up)
1 BattleDestroyer: Battleaxe (cause it looks like a battleaxe )
3 fighters/bombers: Venix, Vulture, Shandrakor

well, that's about it, now, for the URL,  there are two of 'em.

and...

/\/\ this is the ITA(Intergalactic Terran Alliance) website, has all the info you need on the requested ships, go check 'em out!

well, that was a long post but if anyone would like to give it a shot, they are more than welcome too.

well, that's it.

WELCOME TO THE HARD LIGHT PRODUCTIONS FORUM!!

[Reaper]

Yes, welcome, we hope you will feal nice here...

And i see you like lego  :yes:

[LtNarol]

a few things:

1. Tanks wont work well in the FS2 engine, fs2 only supports free moving objects in all 3 dimensions and last i checked, you couldnt (using fred2) prevent an object from rolling.  Meaning a tank wont stay right side up.

2. I can help you to an extent, but my models always end up with geometry problems (small gaps between polys, forming see-through seams).

3. Legos rock, many of my better modeling creations are based off of Legos.  Here are just a few:

[CP5670]

I'm into Legos a lot as well; check this out: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=10501 (somewhat outdated now; I'll put up more images when the model is complete)

[Corhellion]

Every and all the help is GREAT, the more the marrier!

and LTNarol thx for your help and yes, LEGO'S ROCK!!

And I don't plan on use "ground" warfare in a space sim, might be interesting, but it will never fly.(execpt the tank in starfox, it hovered)

I plan on making a small campaign right in the middle of the ITA/VE war(around 2308), There will be 1 (playable) squad in it, and you're going to be the wingleader of the 666th Hellions(the logo is already in the game:)). They are a space superiority/heavy assault/bomber squad (so if anyone who likes those kinds of squads, then they are gonna love this mod!!)

I'm also looking for a name for the campaign, anyone who has an idea for it is greatly appreciated

I'm going to be doing some of the missions, although my fred2 keeps f***ing up on me ( sry had to swear)

But, I'm not going to post another long post, so I'll end it here.

everyone loves multi-purpose squads, they're the most fun.  I suggest you get the mod done before you start fredding, and since this is going to be a total conversion, i suggest you find someone who knows tables like the back of his hand because you're going to be doing a lot of screwing with tables.

[Corhellion]

THX for reminding me, I almost totally forgot, I need new table files.

If anyone knows how to do them, or can send a link to how I can learn to use em, it would be GREATLY appreciated.

But, that would be...about...3 new primary's, and......about......6 secondaries, maybe 7

should've thought about that earlier :doh:

Anyways, if anyone else wants to help out, there is more than enough room for people to join, still waiting for someone to come up with a name for the campaign

well, that's it

[Kamikaze]

I can do tables so I might be able to help ya. Look at the "can someone make a weapon for me" thread for an example...

[Corhellion]

I like, you are quite a weapons dude

Could you possibly do the RKN(Archon) Cannon, like the Prometheus only bluey white, instead of greeny white

and the Pharos Cannon, that is like the...Flail, or Morning star, but less kenetic and more hull busting capabilities, and it's red, and orange, medium fire,

and the Rail-gun, nothin but a Hull buster, extreme hull damge, about 12, and only 3 shield damage,(it's an anti-cap ship weapon)
it will be blue, and green, with a trail, and take up a considerable amount of energy, like the kiaser, only more engery consumption

So, I hope you can do all that, It' pretty stray forward stuff (I think)

But, other than that, there will be bombs too(Oh joy, Oh Bliss )

And, still:

I NEED A NAME FOR THE CAMPAIGN, PLZ SEND IN YOUR IDEAS THEY ARE ALL GREATLY APPRECIATED

Well, that's all for now

Cya

GADM. Wes "Corhellion" Prewer

[Kamikaze]

Okay, I'll get working on those ideas soon. I'll post screenshots when I get them working well

BTW: have you considered getting the campaign hosted at HLP? It'd be good considering they give us space.

[Corhellion]

Woah, now, uh...OK

How do I get HLP to host the campaign, and do I have to make a new site? If I do, that's better than Ok!

I am still wanting somebody to think like the devil and think up a name for this Nameless Crusade...wait..just..a..second...Nameless Crusade, It has been crisanded, the Name for this Campaign is: Nameless Crusade, uh, maybe someone else could give it a shot (it's 9:30, that's late for me..brain..not..work... )

And thx kamikazee, you shall get rewarded...although I don't know with what..yet, maybe a character in the TC...oh wow, ya!

Woah, 4 posts in 1 day, that's for me, I'll reply tomorrow

I'm goin' to bed, and think about the wonders of space, subspace, and beam cannons piercing my head.......ARGH!!!

ewer

It says in the on the main page somewhere under "hosted" - I can't remember off the top of my head. You shouldn't have to make a new site they'll just put yours on the HLP server. (unless you want to of course)

Also 'bout the name - Give us more story/plot details and it'd be easier. Like my campaign is called what it is (in the sig) because... uhhh.... ermm... I've gotta stop talking (there's a reason)

Cheers,
Kamikaze

[Corhellion]

I'm gonna give Setekh an e-mail right now and send him my website, I will probably need another website too, to upload the campaign.

Now, about the campaign itself, It takes place about 3 months before a HUGE battle, in the campaign, you do everything, assault supply ships (which will be cruisers), bombing big cap ships, and defending cap ships, reconnaisance, and be on the recieving end of a HUGE battlefleet, and no one knows about it, so, you have to get home alive and report everything you saw to the CO, and the last, I think 3 missions, are gonna be BIG cap ship action, 2 BIG fleets duke it out (about 15 ships per fleet, about 30 cap ships in total!!). Hope that was informative, if not, uh...I can't help you

And Kamakazi, THX THX THX, if you can get them working, could you see if I could get them to work on my FS2? Just test it before a public release (I'm gonna release the components in small public releases, weapons first, then the ships, then the campaign, hopefully, it will cut down on the size of the campaign (hopefully, I hate loooooong downloads )

Well, that's it

The minotaur looks like my Phoenix!

[LtNarol]

nah, the minotaur looks better

[Anaz]

where do you guys get the lego cad software?

[LAW ENFORCER]

From Lego Software(TM) The ULTIMATE modular software!

[Anaz]

and I get that where..?

[Stryke 9]

Showoffs.

Upper left- there's a reason it looks cubic.
