The UEC Custos - Too small and useless to be much use in the current conflict, but Sanctus losses and a scarcity of hulls means that these are becoming employed more and more in front-line operations.
Model credits to Cadius for his X3 ship mod with some minor editing by myself (but we know Noah shipyards are the ones we should all thank for the first inspiration of the model. Thank you Noah colony).
It's got LODs and a sorrowful excuse for debris but it's ready for those who want to use it in FRED!

Congratulations on getting it done so fast and efficiently!
-
Nice very nice!
-
I always <3'd the shape of Nexus Destoryers and Cruisers. I hope you get an "Avalanche" inspired vessel too later on down the line. Props to you all.

That looks like a slightly elongated ships for Nexus: The Jupiter Incident.

Uh, yes. That'd be because that's almost exactly what it is, even stated by Darius in the first post.
-
Tiling factor for main textures is a bit too small, textures are a bit strained but it's not a big problem. Very nice model, good work :yes:. Good source of inspiration :).
-
Oh my god the Noah Destroyer, I loved that damn ship. :D
-
Later revisions will get a nameplate, better LODs and debris and (hopefully) UVmapping.

:yes:

Looks dangerous and sexy :yes:

Still a good-looking ship. Nice work!
-
Excellent. Congrats on the release. :yes:

Love this sucker, it also reminds me of the Excalibur from Wing Commander 3.

Accepting orders now. Where would you like yours parked? :P

You gorgeous sexy bastard. I always preferred this over the battleship. It just feels MEANER :)
-
Don't forget about Noah Battleship (Cadius Nagoya) and Carrier (Cadius Saitama) :)

Those could be UEF previous generation dedicated Combat Destroyer and Fleet Carrier/ carrier destroyer (well this might be not so good considering that there is no need for Carrier in Sol).

Yeah, I want the Saitama! :D
-
BTW this one could be UEF fighter logistic ship (coz if I remember UEF still use Centaurs):

That looks far too large though.
-
It would be a good replacement for ugly Kadmoses.

That ship was actually in War in Heaven at one point, but was pulled because we couldn't find the original modeler to ask for permission at the time.
The UEF does have a new support ship for R2.
-
I could see the Noah Cruiser (I think its the Sendai in Cadius' mod) floating around somewhere in the UEF armory, but for some reason the Colossus (Saitama) and Battleship (Nagoya) would just look out of place anywhere in FS, in my opinion. A bit too...curvy, I guess? Just my two cents though.
And now I can't decide if this is making me want to play X or Nexus. Dammit. :mad:
-
This release is missing the Warhammer#custos weapon. Can we get an update or if not, how would just having normal warhammers instead work?
-
They're pretty similar in power to Warhammer#Sanctus
-
:bump:
Updated (http://www.mediafire.com/?aag59jmbf2srozh) download with a resmoothed pof, and table changed to have a less ridiculous explosion radius. It now uses Warhammer#Sanctus, which means you can just add it into the mod without having to create the weapon or edit the table entry.
It would be a good replacement for ugly Kadmoses.
The ugly Kadmos is getting a replacement, along with a few civilian ships like the Florence, Demeter, etc.

I don't remember if this was on the previous download but the glow in these areas don't seem like they're meant to be there.
-
:eek2: Awesome ship!
Honestly, I'd download this and include it in my mod...but unfortunately, I really don't have a need for anymore terran warships.
Really like the Noah colony starships though. Only thing better would be a FS2 Angelwing - or those awesome jumper-ships from the Bridgehead mission.
-
Download link appears to be broken, could somebody please repost?
-
Whoops, forgot to update the first post with the new link. I fix.

That's a result of texture substitution from the original. It'll eventually get UV'd and those areas will be sorted out.

Thank you, Darius.
