The Jotun is essentially how I pictured how the GTVA would combat Shivan Juggernauts if FS3 was made.  Instead of building Juggernauts to match, I pictured the GTVA just building smaller ships capable of outmanuevering and flanking the Juggernauts to destroy it.  I kind of imagined a scenario of how it could be done.  I kind of pictured a bomber nearly the size of a small freighter, armed with essentially a single deployable meson bomb in its bombay.  The bomber would necessarily require a fighter escort and I pictured it as being something the player wouldn't fly, but would instead protect.  The bomber would be built kind of like a warship in that it would have an anti-fighter beam of flak turret instead of the normal laser turret for defense.  I called it a "stategic bomber" sort of like the B-52 or B-2 bomber of today instead of a tactical bomber like the F-111 or F/A-18, which essentialy all FS1 and 2 bombers fill.

The way it would work is it would be escorted by a wing or two of fighters, and once the bomb is released towards its target, the bomber, along with all of its escorts would fire rocket boosters to get at least two kilometers away before the meson would detonate.  I pictured one or two mesons as being sufficient to destroy or severly cripple a Sathanas.  This all came from my Freespace daydreaming.  Yes, Freespace Freak is an appropriate name for me.

Those ships look really spiffy, but the Danaus uses ubscure maps for the missile ports, I only noticed that now. Is the Ursa Mark II a new model or was it an earlier mushed up and spliced model? It reminds me of one of the concept shots for the Boanerges.

The Jotun is based on FS1 concept art, so yeah I guess it could get a cut into FS3 (the Tauret is one of the FS1 concepts).  And the Notus is bigger than the Jotun ;7.

Does it have the triple gun on both sides (gawd placement on the Ursa was bad)? The Peregrine was hard to aim with (yeah, 'fighter bomber' my ASS!).

The skins on the Herc III looked a little low-res to me.  Are those just temporary?  And what is the LPAC?  Is that the plasma cannon that is fitted on all the bombers?
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
Post by: Woomeister on September 11, 2006, 02:39:43 pm
It is low res, but I can't do anything about that.

LPAC is the weakest of the bomber plasma weapons.

Low Pac?

Will those Herc III textures be fixed before release then?

If Woo doesn't do them, no one will, I mean he hasn't been asking anyone for stuff that isn't on Inferno. Like he needed a Shivan Cruiser, but I don't think he asked anyone (unless he did it via PM's).
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
Post by: Woomeister on September 11, 2006, 02:45:37 pm
I'm not an artist so I can't do textures.

We have never needed a Shivan cruiser. Got plenty of those.

Oops, I mean destroyer... Aren't you a modeller? Didn't you make the Enceladus, the Vidyar and all that? Why not make a  Shivan destroyer yourself?

Sorry to say that, but I think  you have broken the Alves model Woo.

I really think that Alves looks much better with previous nose, like this:

Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
Post by: T-Man on September 11, 2006, 05:44:32 pm
Really cool screenies Woo! :yes:

I like the more specialised idea Inferno is going for, it will make the player think much more about ship and loadout selections for each mission.

Is the alves meant to be a next-gen Erinyes? Their designs are vaguely similar.

I'm really sorry to say this, but dude...the Ursa's bomb bays...urgh...they just...look...wrong to me for some reason. Maybe its just the angle of the pic, but i think they might look better flipped vertically (so the "spikes" were level with the cockpit). At the end of the day, its your descision though.

Still, cool pics! Look foward to more if you get the chance! 8)
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
Post by: Mobius on September 11, 2006, 05:50:28 pm
I prefer the Jotun,very very cool.

The Alves is supposed to...it's an heavy fighter.The Keres is the Erinyes mk II.
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
Post by: asyikarea51 on September 11, 2006, 11:06:19 pm
LOL, I was looking at Aldo's modeldumps and the Alves is called the Erinyes 2 in there. At least I think so. :lol:

I like the current nose on the Alves. xD

Though I have to say I don't like the Ursa II... I strongly dislike the design... I kind of feel like it's lost its character with that new mesh...  :(

Otherwise, really nice stuff. Me likes. :) :yes:
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
Post by: Woomeister on September 12, 2006, 03:29:46 am
Yeah the Alves is the Erinyes 2 in the modeldump :)

Well the Ursa 2 bays were designed like that by the model maker (not sure whos Ursa 2 it is) from a concept pic. I don't really like changing other peoples designs unless I really need to. It's supposed to look more sleak than the original. I like the FS1 big brick though :D

That's a newly textured Jotun that I completed about 30 mins before posting those first shots. The old one looked too blury.
Title: Ursa II and Jotun
Post by: asyikarea51 on September 12, 2006, 03:51:19 am
That explains things. FS1 big brick LOL :lol:

 :doubt: It's like... the Ursa II model is sorta stretched out and the textures look... "off". :nervous: IMO more could've been done to the sides of those boxy vent thingies (the ones above the bomb pods), maybe some sort of wings or... or something... to at least cover up the stretchy look of the thing. But I see a point in not changing the design unless absolutely necessary. :nod:

That Jotun posted in the first thread, me likes very much. :) I discount my little gripe about its bombpod/wing linkage points.

If I could model (I can't even properly import a ready-made model into FS2 :lol:), I would've made the Ursa II's batteries into a squarish shape of sorts, and added some attachments to connect the vents and the bomb pods together. But that's just me. :lol:

Maybe I should draw it later tonight. xD

Post by: Woomeister on September 12, 2006, 03:55:30 am

In the original concept pic the bombpods rotate underneath the ship at that point.
And no I don't plan on implementing that now.
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
Post by: asyikarea51 on September 12, 2006, 05:00:31 am

Rotate?

Going by the arrow and what I can read of the text, the Jotun missile silos would be underneath the ship in non attack mode and would only be in place for attacking its target.

Never noticed that 'till now. Well, it would have been cool, but I guess if we want it released sometime this decade, you've got to draw the line somewhere.

Is it just me, or does the Shivan concept on the left second from the top sorta look like Duck Dodgers would own that ship... :nervous:

Post by: Colonol Dekker on September 12, 2006, 06:24:56 am
With the animation code, could that be keyed into whether the bomb is locked or not, Either move into place as the Missiles a nearing a lock, or have a new flag for weapons,
"Bays open only" and have the "bays" controlled by a keypress? :confused:
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
Post by: Woomeister on September 12, 2006, 06:37:32 am
I'm not sure. I never planned to use the animation code so I didn't look into how it works.

Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
Post by: Woomeister on September 12, 2006, 07:47:27 am
Yeah but I don't want to animate the Jotun, because then I have to add things like animated fighterbay doors to all the capships or the Jotun becomes a gimmick ship as it would be the only model using that feature.

If you really want to do the Ursa 2 a favor, while still making it sleek, reverse the angle of the missile bays so they slope back. Seriously, it looks like somebody's foot or something right now...

Because I'm working on INFA solo and the last few weeks I've been getting the INF SCP staff modpack working again and doing the cockpitted fighters.
So there's nothing to report until either one of the testers plays through all 20 missions or I get a chance to do so myself.

As for the INF SCP modpack. Some code changes broke it so the staff version doesn't work anymore, so I fixed it and uploaded a new version today with the fresh new cockpitted fighters as well.

ugh,the number of missions has increased drammatically.
There are going to be 4-5 episodes,with 20 missions per episode :7

I'm sure that Steadfast will really speed up Inferno,bringing here more modders etc.
For these reasons we have decided to change some names,like the Icanus,to let them appear cooler/more appropriated.

You and FFreak are creating an INF campaign too,right?

Those teeth textures on the EA bombers look funny... and the edited Donar doesn't look EAish at all. And maybe the Stentor should have a sharp nose instead of a rounded one... GTF Angel Mark 2 anyone? Maybe say that it's created by the rivals of the Claymore creators? :lol:

I'm learning to live with my gripes about the wing/body link points, so I'll just say the new ships rawk.  ;)

EA craft firing Mace and Rippers?

 :doubt:

Have the weapons been changed so that they can be mounted only on EA fighters, or are the guns shared like in R1? Or is the story written in such a way, in that EA weapons can be retrofitted onto GTVA ships and vice versa (but GTVA and EA still use their own respective breed of weapons)? One thing I didn't like in R1 was that the EA had a rather poor selection of weapons once the GTVA ones were discounted. I find it odd that after being separated for years, the EA relies on only one or two guns...  :wtf:

But then again I recall a weapon called "Banshee R" from a screenie somewhere...  :confused:

EDIT: Then there's the Aquila and the Ripper...  :nervous:

EDIT2: Arbalest bomb... haha, the Arbalest's a missile in a mod that I'm working on... :lol:

Post by: asyikarea51 on September 14, 2006, 09:05:59 pm
Each faction has a seperate weapon set. Nothing is shared.

Yey... :lol:

Shocker? I use it whenever I'm extremely pissed off... The modded Alcyone in my on-hold campaign is also loaded to the death with Shockers and Flak... and the AI Class for the entire ship is set to "General"...
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
Post by: Mobius on September 15, 2006, 02:48:30 am
The Alcyone is far better with Helios/Executioner :lol: torps...
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
Post by: asyikarea51 on September 15, 2006, 05:19:43 am
That's only when it's teaming up with the "death squad" against the super capital ships... and I won't give them bombs THAT heavy... the most I'll use is the Helios and nothing bigger, unless I develop my campaign's story to accomodate them... :lol: and that is if I even bother to finish the campaign xD

Come to think of it, remember those screenies I shot? Death squad won using Assassins, but I think it was only a lucky run... in later tries, they kept going into places where the Luci's beams could hit, :wtf:. If it wasn't for that, a constant bombing run woulda killed the Luci, regardless of the type of bomb used...  :doubt:

Sure, the damage sucks big time, but it's fun watching the Alcyone spray flak and Shocker at the Luci all day long... hmm, maybe I should FRED another mission to see how many fighter waves can it shoot down before the hull drops below 30%... :lol: xD

:lol:, I remembered another thing about the Luci's side heavy beams - I shot a twin Armageddon salvo at it and instead of hitting the target, the 'armies kept spinning round and round in front of the barrel!!! WTF?!!!!!!1  :mad: :wtf: :lol:

Bloodhound is weaker than the Shocker, no? I always thought that was way to powerful. In 'The Great Rebellion', I fired Shockers at the Formidable's turrets and then knocked it out. Too easy.

The Shadow is the weakest aspect missile and can be fired once a second. It's used on most Terran fighters as standard.

The beam has to be reduced in dimensions,something between what we currently have now and a SAAA.

An SAAA size beam would look weak attacking warships.

The Vindy is a bomber and can't have a power reactor for an anti-warship beam.

R1 weapons, find a ship that has them and try them on a Vindhyachal.
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
Post by: Dark Hunter on September 18, 2006, 05:48:12 pm
ITDOH's Vindhyacal isn't that powerful, and I'm betting here that Inferno hasn't modified it too much (love the reskin BTW  :yes:). When you actually fight against them, they're not that tough, and they're too dumb to use their fighterbeams more than once or twice anyway.

EDIT: of course, ITDOH by that point has the Herc III and Firestorm cannon... :doubt:


Also, YAY THE TICONDEROGA IS IN R2!  :D

Love that corvette cruiser!

We seem to have lots of Fenris/Leviathan spin-offs.... Tico, Nemesis....
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
Post by: Woomeister on September 18, 2006, 05:49:31 pm
It's a cruiser, not a corvette.
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
Post by: Mathwiz6 on September 18, 2006, 08:19:43 pm
The vindycathal isn't to hard :wtf: :wtf:WTF? WTF?!

The only problem is it moves at 35 normally, and uses afterburner liberally (195). So it actually dodges. The shaping is evil. Eeeevil. and it has 3 turrets, which hit you from any direction. And it hits you with the big @$ beam. And it has so much hull it takes years to kill (well, 2 mins or so)

And the herc3 + firestorm still takes a while to kill it.

If the vindy didn't drain weap energy while doing the charging ani, only when firing, then it would rip cruisers. And corvettes. And destroyers.

Like, 2 vindy solo a Ca, in that mish where you cover the Het-Ka, and the Ca, and the Gabriel.

As long as you don't stop them :D. But 3x the hull/shield of a ser makes for some inane shooting.

Die! Die! Die! Die! DIe!dIe! d13! D1E! d1E!
(2 mins later) Whoops, the other one took out the Ca! WhTF are the anti-fighter beamz?
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots

The Vindyachal is destroyable,and fortunately it rather prefers to attack you when its hit during its bombing run.

Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
Post by: asyikarea51 on September 20, 2006, 09:59:51 pm
@ Woo

Just curious, but did you change the textures on the Holler? Or are you making textures resembling the Holler and using them on the other EA fighters (obviously to keep military uniformity)?

I found it too and was about to use it in a mod when I read that it had problems crashing the game whenever it died on-screen... but if it's already downloadable on HC and appearing in R2, then that bug's prolly been fixed...

----

Pity those bombers lack cockpits; I can imagine 4 men controlling the Notus (two seats below, two seats above). When I first saw the Notus, there was something I didn't like about its boxy appearance, but add another 30 seconds to that and now I like it a fair bit... :lol:

If only someone did Vas models so we could have Vas cockpitted fighters... :lol:

Wonder what the Keres and Wraith will be like... (evil grin)
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
Post by: ToecrusherHammerjaw on September 21, 2006, 09:29:11 am
I seem to recall that the Wraith, formerly an SOC bomber, was not going to be a part of the main release.  Then again, perhaps it will be in an archives pack of some sort?
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
Post by: asyikarea51 on September 21, 2006, 09:35:51 am
Speaking of the SOC, is the Lyre an SOC craft? Since it sports the SOC paintjob...  :blah:

Wonder if the EA has their own version of the SOC... maybe the ex-GTI? :lol: Since the Vas have the VCI anyway...

 :D
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots

The SOC is no longer a separate force from the GTVA in Inferno.  Their fleet has been scrapped, though some ships have been kept on as Alliance craft, like the Solaris.
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
Post by: Woomeister on September 21, 2006, 11:23:03 am
@asyikarea51
The Holler textures remain the same, not every EA ship uses the same texture so it fits in fine with the others.

The bug is easy to fix, you need to set the turrets to have a rotate axis in modelview as it's required by live debris.

The lyre is standard GTVA.

@Trayus
The Wraith is not part of the main mod.

The map is 1024^2 but doesn't use the space well, it's also over 3 years old and used low res textures as a base. Upgrading the original map isn't possible.

I don't want to cockpit the Vasudan stuff really, there's too many different types of shapes to their cockpit areas it would be a major hassle for me to do. The Terran ones were pretty straight forward.

The EA should use Alpha,Beta ecc. because they were GTA,but of course they don't communicate with their enemy,saying "we have launched Omega" or "sorry,but we don't have reinforcements available.You may strike our Lycaons unaided!"

The more I look at the ships on the first page, the more an idea develops in my head via daydreams...

I'm picturing myself sitting in a cinema watching an animé film (complete with Jap speech :lol:) based on INF R2... a story involving two pilots, one pilots an EAF Claymore, the other a GTF Ezechiel... and the opening of a Pandora's Box in the form of a huge Shivan fleet... and somehow or another the Ancients also get thrown into the whole thing... hmm... and I picture them wearing oversized robes that cover them up to the point where you can't see a single feature of the Ancient organism... And they're levitating OH NOES!!!!!1

Great, now I'm getting carried away. :lol:

I had the Andro fight the Sath in a test mission once (involving a #@$%-load of Katos and I forgot which class of Shivan fighter). Ancients waste the Shivans as though the Shivans were nothing... and my poor Vesuvius kept getting pounded by huge vollies of Pharnec fire... ><

And I had another one yesterday: Ancients hallfight... the Ezechiel pilot coming to the rescue of the Claymore pilot... :lol: GTVA pilot's sidearm is a scaled-down, rapid-firing Subach blaster rifle, the EA pilot uses an assault rifle akin to a Colt Commando+M203+accessories... :lol: :lol: :lol: And the room is really dark and lined with ambient purple on the walls. Something like those red liney textures on the Gorgon, only purple. And them Ancients are levitating and flinging energy balls from their hands OMG...  :shaking: I even had another version of it (where there's no fighting), but I think I'm going waaaay overboard now... :lol:

My current daydreams suggest that what you say is true... (HELP! :shaking:) but I think I know where to pin down an ending to the whole... "show". At the expense of not being able to sleep right yesterday night though... :lol:

Probably a short story (a huge universe just to tell a short story :wtf: :lol:) if I could ever make it, but that in itself is another far-fetched dream... 13 episodes? (like the animé VCD packs sold over here?) 26 (13x2)? 40? 70? Or maybe a two-hour film, but then I'd have to rush the plot... :lol:

Another far-fetched dream... :sigh:

This time it's the same two friends, spying on a yet-to-be-discovered Knossos portal because of the huge Shivan activity there. Funny thing is, my brain interprets the laser weapons as ballistic ones. Maybe it's because, to me, the visual impact of ballistic weapons and muzzleflashes is better?

Which means that you're going to work solo on it=other 12-24 months.Steadfast will be the first campaign to have a lot to Shivan stuff, and the only one until Gateways...

But they should have developed fierce techs when they crushed other civilizations...

I had an idea for an Ancient campaign time ago:
GTVA archs find more Ancient relics about Ancient weaponry and shipment.Using simulations,GTVA pilots could control Ancient crafts and fight important battle in Ancient history....

Maps and design,if we put together the Zagreus,the Orion and the Hecate we can notice the difference.The Zagreus(probably thanks to its maps)is exactly what a pre-Orion should be.What about its armament?A pre-Orion should have only a few weak turrets,or not?!?
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
Post by: starbug on September 25, 2006, 04:50:28 pm
i love the Zagreus very terran and it looks brilliant with the Fenris texts, the Tyr looks like it was inspired by Homeworld. If the Capships are all using that kind of texturing great it makes them look like there all from the same Species. Great work there.

I can't seem to stop thinking about the Hercules battles/comparisons... (I don't really like the Hercules fighters myself :lol:) What if after the EA and the GTVA stopped fighting and allied with each other, both sides did some sort of a "war museum" visit or something? Have a look at the older fighters in use by both sides? XD

Who knows, maybe the Antaeus was indeed called the Hercules II on the Sol side, but since those ships are long phased out by the time the EA-GTVA war starts, the GTVA prolly won't know that till the so-called museum visits... :lol:

Meh, I'm making theories up again... :lol:

There aren't only sentence changes to do. There's some balancing,and Command messages are too delayed.

<you destroy or defend X and passes too much time before Command says "RTB">

Of course such comments cover the new models ;7

Post by: Woomeister on October 04, 2006, 11:44:50 am
Command messages are too delayed.

<you destroy or defend X and passes too much time before Command says "RTB">
That happens as I give the rtb message enough time to count the waves of fighters. You don't want an area is secure message and then more fighters show up a second later. If you've already killed them then there's a slight delay.
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
Post by: Mobius on October 04, 2006, 11:52:10 am
But too much time passes!!!

This happens also when there's a ship to escort and it departs.No destr. of waves this time.

You should think about the mission objectives,not the directives. They activate themselves after a few seconds.
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
Post by: SadisticSid on October 05, 2006, 03:20:47 am
It doesn't make any sense for Command to know the area is completely secure, given that they can't always predict when or where enemy ships are going to arrive.

Only in INF:A Command is so ritardato...
In any other campaign Command says RTB shortly after the mission objectives have been achieved/failed.
is-destroyed-delay <wing> becomes true when all crafts in all wings have been destroyed.

About Shadows Of The Great War...it's bigger than expected so I need time. Also, we are preparing Steadfast Episode 1 for the release. I have to work hard.

Do you want a small mission pack or a pirate mini-campaign?I can create such things....
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots

Oh, yes, a little side campaign to come with INFA... Nice. 8)

And a few more single missions shouldn't be so hard for the likes of you.

Yes,but about what? I have in mind something about pirates(poor pirates,they are hit hard in SHGW.....)but a 3-4 mission campaign is a bit idiotic,so I think I will make some single missions...

Ah,I need a grammar checker for that....

I bumped their stats for INFA2. Though only a few are actually used as it's all INFA and EA ships that are used for the most part.
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
Post by: Mobius on November 30, 2006, 03:54:33 pm
Which means that even if some INFA:2 ships have designs similar to FS1 ones their stats are much better.

Which means that even if some INFA:2 ships have designs similar to FS1 ones their stats are much better.

The FS1-ers ships have probably gone through mny upgrades by the time of INF:A2, better systems/guns/armour. Much cheaper to update the old stuff then to churn out new designs.

Post by: fsi.scsi on December 25, 2006, 04:07:11 pm
Like Snail, I fail to see how that proves anything about Vasudan monetary systems.

I'm guessing that since the Hatshepsut was commissioned, some amount of financial capital, backing, investment etc. was involved.  A fairly weak argument BTW.

My own theory is that Vasudans have developed a capitalistic economy similar to our own - independent companies competing for government grants (Mekhu Enterprises, Akheton, and the Colossus)?  Sounds suspiciously like Boeing and Lockheed Martin.
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots

Confused...why? It was clear. Money is important for the Vasudans too.

Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
Post by: Snail on December 26, 2006, 04:50:10 am
The Shivans are either a hivemind or a MEGA DICTATORSHIP. Besides, they're different from the Vasudans and Terrans, they are not independent or are very afraid of their government. If the Terrans or Vasudans were not paid, there would be one hell of a rebellion. Think, man.

Anyway there's a difference between the Cain/Lilith and the Rakshasa. The Rakshasa could be 'recent',as demonstrated by its design and weaponry...the Shivans develop technologies too,maybe after seeing what other civilizations are capable of.
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
Post by: Snail on December 28, 2006, 09:56:23 pm
Perhaps they integrate the technologies of the civilizations they destroyed, like in FSFreak's mod with the flak.
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
Post by: Mobius on December 29, 2006, 11:51:08 am
It could be. They could have the technology but not a valid design concept, so they need to look at other civilizations products of engineering. Just check how different Shivan ships are each other...
Title: Re: Woos Glory Shots
