No its just beam free all, and fire-beam going off at the same time from the same turret.

Re: Inf outtakes download question
That Gigas is just the Moloch, Sathanas, and Rakshasa models combined with extra turrets. A mix of parts. I did say long ago that it wasn't very original and for a SSJ class, it should be more original since it is a special class of ship.
No.

It is not a kitbash.

The original one was, the current one is not however. Though it is designed based on the Rakshasa, like the current INFR1 one was actually, there is definitely no Sathanas, Moloch or Ravana in there.

Re: Inf outtakes download question
I like the new Gigas. Still as big as ever, but more Shivan-like in appearance. My first thought was that it was a 20:1 scale of the Rakshasa affixed with the prongs of the Ravana in front. In short, I think it is an excellent combination of appearance and terror. :nod:

Re: Inf outtakes download question
And I hope there are more massive Shivan ships of similar size where that came from in the Inferno canon. Sadly, it will be a while before we can touch Inferno, and seemingly INFA too.

Don't worry. There's always INFR1 and all the other mods to keep us occupied, not to mention drooling at the FTF MiG.

Get a fake identity and attend the Uni for me so that I can have more FreeTime for INFA. :p

Re: Inf outtakes download question
This new Gigas is awesome ,but as lo-poly as previous ,so if I had choice I don't know which one I would choose. I agree your Gigas is better than my Shiva ,but keep in mind Shiva is not a replacement for Gigas ,but for Gargant. I like current Gigas and as you could see I have retextured it ,but the Gargant really looks like modyfied Sathanas and Gargant was the reason why I released Shiva. The only flaw of your current Gigas is it's a bit too similar to Rakshasa ,and previous one better fitted Shivan "tradition" of not making two similar ships. So can you post current picture of the Gargant? I wonder how does it looks right now. Shiva really has nothing to do with Gigas
(I don't think making him second largest Shivan ever released does count).  :)

The Gargant is so much bigger than Superjuggernauts. It's a Hive.

While the Cain and Lilith use the same hulls the Rakshasa is basically a mini-Ravana in terms of design features and loadout.

Re: Inf outtakes download question
I fail to understand how the Ravana and the Rakshasa would be so similar in terms of design. :confused:

Re: Inf outtakes download question
They both feature many prongs that shoot beams and do not curve inward.

They were made with offense in mind, their beam weaponry is concentrated all on the front, with the prongs, and even a spike on the bottom-aft of the ship that houses a AAA beam.
They certainly weren't designed to look alike if that's what you think I was trying to say, they aren't but they do share certain similarites in their designs.

Shiva is also a hive ,it's 40Km long.

Cain and Lilith are exception that confirms the rule ,as for Ravana and Rakshasa I agree with Commander Zane ,they have similarities because of offensive role.
And they don't look like made from the same parts ,the thing which Gargant and new Gigas does.
I suggest to play around with textures.

What's so special? That's the description of the average Shivan ship. The Shivans tend to mount their turrets on the front because, unlike Terrans(example), they don't fear flanking maneuvers(or better, they don't care if they lose ships that way).

That Gigas actually has about 3x the polycount of the one used in R1. I think it's around 1.8k without turrets
The original design premise for the R1 Gigas was actually to make a giant Rakshasa looking thing. Which I now believe I succeeded in doing :D
The current Gargant is the same mesh as the one used in the current renders, just with more tiled mapping (to match its size) and an increased turret count
