The old website is no longer online since the new one is in the works.

[starlord]

Pity: there was a nice little instalation I loved.

Never mind, though. How's the project? (although since I'm asking in the exams period, I think I know what the answer will be).

[ShadowGorrath]

Will there be battlecruisers in the initial/demo/first release?

[pecenipicek]

depends if we get modellers and texturers. for example, we have the interceptor done (modelling side only), carrier halfway done, probe, destroyer i think and thats about it for now. i'm currently the sole modeller in the TAP.... sooo.. any help is greatly appreciated.

Just a little extra, this event takes place very early in HW2. Where destroyers are only a myth.

[ShadowGorrath]

I hope you're joking about the destroyers-only-a-myth thing ?

[pecenipicek]

i think he is, cause we already have a destroyer done. (in model at least...)

neways, the demo will be pre-HW2. or, at least with the beginnings of the Vaygr incursion, so you wont be seeing too much. (initially )

[ShadowGorrath]

Ah, that's all fine, I guess. Cause the demo can be used for custom made missions, right?

The only thing I don't like about Vaygr is that they look lame in person... You got the concept pictures of Vaygr in person, right?

[pecenipicek]

*looks around nervously*

weeeell... nooo?

pm it. we'll see what we'll do

(that is if you're not talking about Makaan... if you are... well, he looks human enough to me)

[ShadowGorrath]

Well, it's in public. Here- http://homeworld.wikia.com/wiki/Vaygr. There's an image with concept art of them.

[Turambar]

Homeworld pretty ribbon ship trails:  Do you have them?

[nubbles526]

Yep, surely we do. We still need to change the agility of the fighters to match the ones like HW.

This screenshot is a bit wacky, but will do. Perhaps we'll change it in the demo.

the planet is a oval....

[Droid803]

I think you're not the point there.

[General Battuta]

Whoa! Suddenly I'm excited about this project. Those trails look great.

[nubbles526]

the planet is a oval....

I do not think we are using the planet - not pretty enough.

I think you're not the point there.

I didn't make the screenshot . Bug the other members.

[Droid803]

Damn it. That came out wrong again.
I meant (at Titan) "I think you're missing the point of the picture".

Also, the warping of the planet is probably due to the FOV.

[nubbles526]

Again? Hmmmm....either my brain's memory is aging, or that didn't even happen.

And with FOV, I think it's just the planet settings for that mission. But as mentioned, I think we'll use a skybox.

[pecenipicek]

we're definitely using skyboxes and i have no idea how old that screenshot actually is

[MechMantis]

If one is flying a scout, will Command order you to kamikaze the nearest frigate occasionally?


In other words, will the non-bomber strike craft be useless against larger ships without suiciding, or will the treatment of strike craft be similar to FS2's, in that strike craft COULD ruin a larger ship's day?
