Starlancer ship - Coalition Corvette, Kurgen Class
So last night, I was playing Starlancer and thinking 'why haven't I upgraded the Kurgen'? So I did!


Thoughts?

I only ever played Starlancer once a while back and didn't finish, so I don't remember what that ship looked like with textures, but your HTL looks good.

Starlancer: the sol war might be interested! they aim to make a starlancer TC under freespace...

I completely forgot about that mod, I only read about it once and lost interest due to the lack of content.

Nice Job ! I liked the starlancer designs (well, most if them :)), some of the carriers where very cool and would also fit inco wingcommander. The fighters were also great. That would defintly be a great TC Mod if someone would start that

Great work, Hades! I loved the Kurgens in StarLancer.

Well according to the team (frequently joinable in moddb) it's not finished at all: they are simply concentrating their efforts on their freelancer MOD before they fall back on the sol war... Also, many of their assets will then be used in sol war...

Last I remember looking at it was some time around two years ago, and there is no change whatsoever in the ModDb article.

well of course, but that doesn't mean they won't come back to it, the leader of the MOD did assure me he would not let it go: I could get him to post perhaps at some point...

When did he state that, anyway?

Last one I can find is 29 August 2010 by someone claiming that it's making progress.

It's a recent claim, and therefore encouraging. :yes:

Re: Starlancer ship - Coalition Corvette, Kurgen Class
Thanks for the good feedback so far. :)

Update, added turrets.

Funfact: Starlancer was meant to be a trilogy, Starlancer 2 and 3 would bridge the gap between Starlancer and Freelancer, both of which were being worked on at the same time. Sadly, Starlancer 1 didn't sell well enough for a sequel.

True! actually I always wondered if that freelancer atmosphere could have been avoided in starlancer sequels but was purpously not chosen (think colony wars...). In the case of the sol war being a branching MOD, perhaps one outcome for the alliance might be a little more...encouraging?

The story wasn't great but battles were exciting. Too bad we had just one StarLancer.

That model Looks great, and It's nice to see Starlancer get some love. Thats another one of the great Under-Appreciated titles of the early 2000's.

I think the way the ship looks now could fit I-War as a complement ship to the Bastille Destroyer. Looking good.

Sure, the story wasn't all that original, but I thought it was pretty far from bad. The only huge problem I ever had with Starlancer were any missions where you had to escort anything smaller than a carrier, like the life pod mission, for instance, because the game didn't lend itself well to that type of playing.
