In this Mod I start again at 0. The story is complete but I start with the campaign after Darkest Dawn. I first want to see what shipnames Saga use to avoid named a ship twice.
-
jasonrockz has a few firekkan fighter designs for collateral damage! I'll try to contact him for you!
-
An interesting design.

Ahhh gotta love the old kilrathi hanger textures LOL
Good job with the Pelileu.

I like these, especially the bottom one.

Rapiersquadron of the TCS Adanauer over the Harrier Class Carrier.

So here is now a little update:
Story is done. You fight in the Enigma Sector again to hold here the Line of Defence. Your Carrier Battlegroup will not enter the Vega Sector. There are enough ships. The Kilrathi can use the Enigma Jumppoints to easy travel beyond the Confed Line in Vega. So its your job to not let that happen. A few ships are missing buts not much. Enigma 2666 cannot be done in Saga Final until another build is release by the Saga Team to allow more models then just around 20. Last Line of Defence and Operation Serpent needs only a few models. And that is possible.
In Last Line you fight with complete new Charakters. But I make the pilotlist very little, I want here Speech, so I then need Actors for the Pilots and a few Captains. I don't wanna tell much until some things are done. What I can show you, are some Ships in Last Line of Defence. So here we go:
The TCS Adenauer (Harrier Class)
Your home Carrier

The TCS Glory and the TCS Justice (Yorktown/Concordia Class)
(http://imageshack.us/a/img193/6196/screen0003nl.jpg)
The TCS Reagon and TCS Nixon (Lexington Class)
Part of the Homefleet in Sol Sector

Another Ship from the Homefleet. The TCS Apocalypse.

Gettysburg has a little update: The rear hangarbay, turrets and communication are done. Just the side-launchbays, windows, thrusters and textures needs a change.
Here in fight with a heavy cruiser and a light destroyer. But hey... they fight against a battlecruiser! With heavy anti mater turrets ;)

rear bay. From the size big enough to land 12 shuttles at the same time
-
Another one: I was not happy with the size of the Hvar'kann. Between a fight of a Confederation and the ship its look very little to the Confed. So I change it from 2.2 to 3.4km. To avoid a conflict with the Saga Main Campaign I renamed it to WC3-Movie Edition ^^
Here it is. Even with the new size (or now) the turrets of the Confeds match with the Kilrathi turrets.
(http://imageshack.us/a/img441/4608/screen0011.jpg)
and here how big it is against the size of the Saga-Campaign
(http://imageshack.us/a/img26/8264/screen0012g.jpg)
I think now its ok :)
-
Before its destruction:
The TCS 65-Concordia ;)
(http://imageshack.us/a/img88/2871/screen0013.jpg)
and the updatet Clydesdale and Gilgamesh from Scooby. Also the Nameplates thanks to him ;)
-
*Update* Without FPS-Display and more ships. I used the old Relay Station with a few textures from Scooby as a Stardock. Its about 800m long and 4 capital and several shuttles can dock.

xD The Captains view of the Gettysburg front :)
-
Holy cow... I like how you placed stuff in the hanger bays nice.... That's exactly why I built them for that. :)
-
Thank you :) You should know me ^^
To show you how I want to see the Gettysburg I try to make some other things on the old model. The Intake, Windows, a few Details and the front I cannot change :( I would build in your Capship launcher but it looks ugly :/ I use again your textures. Not so bad but I have not that experience to add details like you did :(
But I build your sidelauncher from the Essex on the Gettysburg:
(http://imageshack.us/a/img825/4640/screen0036.jpg)
And this is then your point of view before the start:
(http://imageshack.us/a/img823/7780/screen0035i.jpg)
Its looks good, to get outside with full speed ;)
(http://imageshack.us/a/img20/4350/screen0039.jpg)
The Turret-Barbette are on the old texture. I try to copy on of yours over it.. but the old textur is still there.
(http://imageshack.us/a/img845/9813/screen0040m.jpg)
Add also your turrets-destroyed on the ship :)
-
And this is then your point of view before the start:

Awesome :yes:

I think I'll actually never get sick of seeing that skybox. It is the single most epic atmospheric skybox.

PS:
(http://imageshack.us/a/img7/9643/screen0046k.jpg)
Start from the Adenauer. I used here the WC2 Fighters from Saga because I think the Rapier and Sabre are better then the Hellcat and Thunderbolt. Later I use the WC3 fighters too ;)
-
(http://imageshack.us/a/img191/5944/screen0047q.jpg)
First mission work in Campaign-Mode. Add the second mission and the 2 cutscenes. Its much easier to make the missions as the prologue does ;) I soon can ask for the Voice-Actors. I need a few more then I think before. I hope I can give you more infos in a few days.

(http://imageshack.us/a/img507/6478/screen0006c.jpg)
The Armament is change - instead of 4 tripple turrets it has 6 dual turrets - 3 up/down, left and right are capship launchers, 13 Laser turrets and a fighter complement of 28 (8 Ferrets, 8 Epee, 8 Rapier (start from the side launchtubes (4) and 4 Sabre (launch from the landing bay in the rear - or 12 Arrow, 12 Hellcats and 4 Thunderbolts) Longbows or Broadswords are not on this ship - the destruction of capitalships are the work for the heavy amg gunners.
Credits goes to Scooby Doo ;)
On Patrol with a Northampton destroyer:

She looks beautiful. I'm looking forward to see her in action. :)
-
I thought she looked actually better with triple guns. Why the change?
-
The rest of the confed cap ships are double barreled (tallie, south, jutland, confed..)
-
The ships has now more balanced guns (up/down) and I perhaps use another turretdesign but the barrels from the AMG. So its 6 Dual AMG.
But another thing. The ship has now 2 AA Turrets for point defence and capshipmissile defence. The damage is less then the Laser turret (down from 18 to 3) But its a maschinegun cannon. Swarm of 4 and rapid fire. Its like the Phalanx on todays destroyer and cruiser.
Here some pics:

Long time ago no update:
10 Missions are done but I overworked it again. Would be nice if someone can do the missionsbriefing like in the Saga Campaign. Otherwise its just the Freespace 2 Style briefings. I have a movie ready but upload it first after the last 2 ships are done. Scooby gives me the missilelauncher from the Southampton/Hunter for the Adenauer. The Getty is also outfittet now with it. Damage is decreased from the Phoenix missiles - to strong. Also the AA-Turret from the Getty is delete and the AA missilelauncher from the Jutland, Harrier has replaced it.
Here the pics:
(http://imageshack.us/a/img405/776/screen0006x.jpg)
The Getty has two launcher now on the rear-side. Adenauer in front of the tower
(http://imageshack.us/a/img69/4071/screen0004j.jpg)
(http://imageshack.us/a/img546/130/screen0005.jpg)
Here the Phoenix-missile is leaving the launcher (hit the print-button just in time ;))
-
Very nice. The backgrounds are nice too, it reminds me of the nebula thread. Those are good backgrounds to me, not filling up too much space and not bright enough to mess with your hud.
I wonder how fast the missile travels. Nice capture of it launching.
What did you mean about overworked it again with the missions?
I'm looking forward to being able to play some new missions on Saga, keep it up Deathsnake :)
-
The Phoenix have the same speed (and model) of the Lancer torpedoes. If you look on the pic of the launch and the second and watch the time - both pics in the same second.
Overworking the missions because I changed the story (again... :/) Reason was some timeline problems... Between the Battle of Earth and WC3 are less then a year. So are the ships from Saga already at the Battle of Earth? Or just the WC2 ships? How fast the new line of ships are in aktive duty? Are the Fralath light cruiser attack Earth with the bombs? Or the old Fralthi 1 (light cruiser - the heavy was the Fralthra)? How can the Kilrathi and Confed build a complete new line in under a year? I first want to use the old models of the Ralatha and Fralthra. But I already used to much new models for LLoD so I'm at the limit :(

Ah, timeline problems. Very annoying, such story-related problems when you just want to make some good missions. You don't have to waste the missions though, if there are any missions which need to be drastically changed, why not include them as seperate "bonus missions" or something in their old format?

18 Laser, 2 Missilelauncher, no capshiplauncher and 4 AMG. Scooby did that problem with the AMG solved very good. He make one AMG on top/bottom on these sidepods. In that case the ship could fight 4 fregates at once:

4 hangarbays for fighters, 4 doors, 2 bigger doors (for Broadsword hangar - they too big to start from the launchtubes) and 2 elevators to the lower hangarbay storage and the 10 launchtubes on the lower level.
Thanks again @Scooby. The ship is a tribute to its class.

I really love how this mod is looking. :) Are you still collecting assets, or did the FREDing also move along? I would really like to see those ships released, both with original textures and with WC2 ones. I wish I could volunteer for help, but I'm now on the university, so I will probably have little time for testing in the coming days.
-
:eek2:
-
So this is set in 2669? Or am I getting that wrong.
-
So a quick Reply:
The Mod as it was is dead. No time for making a campaign or the Need of many changes to the Saga campaign.
But I know try to make several Videos in Engine to Show a few Scenes as a Movie. Some Tests with camera or try to Change many of the old models i have from the old Enigma 2666 campaign into Saga. With the Change of Wing Commander Saga into Knossus I can use much more models now.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePW5yhYVN90
Test of the old Standoff Exeter Model with Scoobys textures, turrets, engines. Somey parts I cannot change so I show the ship not with those.
https://youtu.be/mQMDn_iC43M
Scoobys Bengal in the same scene
-
Glad to see that you are making good use of all of these assets! They look good with the 3.8 lightning effects.
-
Why not try some of your mini campaign ideas like operation serpent? Or even team up with talon on his hostile frontier project?
-
Not much time more for that. Since last year a Daddy and more Focus on Star Citizen ;)
And as I say - cheap copy and paste work on the old models with some textures, engines and turrets from Scooby.
(https://abload.de/img/2018-01-2865gnu7f.png)
The shape of the ships still not match with saga and also the windows and other parts. And Talon give up long ago.
Here the destroyers and cruisers. You see clear the difference. Some ships are not done but I don't think I can replace everything. So I have to show it in the Videos from front or side and not the unfinish back. As a Mod there would be a lot of errors.
(https://abload.de/img/zwischenablage038tu7j.jpg)
So I cheat for the Video ;)
