Well I think it's been made clear that the issue is not 'the Valerie's waypoints can't be improved' (they obviously can, and it would have clear benefits for 'immersion' and all that ****), but that the labor involved would be pretty sanity-stretching given that it's a mission we've already spent more time on than nearly any other.

I can't stand working on Darkest Hour any more.

Also I'd like to point out that the Diomedes 'sweetspot' is pretty narrow, and that when we designed DH with the original Dio model, two beams on target was considered pretty much the optimal. By this standard the Valerie doesn't do half bad.

I understand. As I added into my previous post (sorry if I was confusing), this reason is very valid for not going with the 'rework the waypoints' route, leaving me with the possibility of having the Indus's opening salvo or two disable the Valarie's engines from the Indus' (possibly coincidental) flank-attack from subspace. Chaotic schedule for the moment aside, I'll give it a shot and see if it has sufficient merit. 

[Aesaar]

I might try this just to practice fredding.

[Col.Hornet]

So the Bel is finished What's going next  Aesaar ...? Please tell me it will be the Raynor. Knowing your skills and style I can almost imagine right now how awesome it would be. You are (in my opinion)  the only modeller who should re-make this destroyer.

I was astonished when I saw what You did with Chimera and Bel, two the most ugly ships in my opinion. Now I like them Thank You once again for your great work

[SpardaSon21]

If you were hanging out on BP's IRC channel you would know Aesaar is already working on the Raynor.  It simply looks awesome.

[Aesaar]

Yes, the Raynor is being worked on.  But it will be a surprise.  It'll be released with the last part of WiH, and you wont see it until then.

The Draco, on the other hand, is currently being textured by Esarai.  Depending on how fast he works, release should happen this month or early Feb.

[Col.Hornet]

Okay, thanks for the info. I hope that it will be similar to this what we have seen so far (I'm sharpening my teeth for her, because tilemapping doesn't give me such possibilities to create something uniqe) It would be cool for the texture pattern to remain like on Diomedes or Chimera. And it's also easy to modify to make the ship look not BP'ish.

[Molaris]

is there any chance that what you did to these ships will happen to the Raynor and Titan?

He's working on the Raynor right now

[An4ximandros]

You bastard.

Edit: Will we at least get to see the neo-Hyperions? And what about the GTD Titans?

[Drogoth]

So what you're saying is I should wait till the end of WiH to order my Raynor 3D print from Vasudan Admiral. Good to know.

[Aesaar]

An4ximandros: Hyperion, yes.  Titan, maybe.

Drogoth: Yes, that's probably a good idea.

And if you guys had been on #bp, you'd have gotten Raynor previews!

[Drogoth]

I'm so looking forward to the new Raynor. Allthough your diomedes is still my all up favorite FS Ship ever. Very sleek. Shark like.

[Crybertrance]

His Raynor is epic... really epic... 

[An4ximandros]

Holding us back from both destroyers would be a... titanic cruelty.

Wait, he finished the Bellerophon?  When and where was this announced?

If you were hanging out on BP's IRC channel you would know Aesaar is already working on the Raynor.  It simply looks awesome.

  Does this channel have a history section I can look at, or are those images gone forever?  I've never used an IRC channel until today.

[Phantom Hoover]

there's a p3d link he posts periodically, your best bet is to lurk until he does so

[Ryuseiken]

The updated Bellerophon has been included in the WiH builds since Tenebra came out.

[Valiran]

I'm in luck, he posted it!

Now all I need is to find out whether or not sharing the link here would be a good idea.

[An4ximandros]

JU DO TIS! HWY! Don't post it, I want it to be a surprise thing. But it better blow my **** brains out in awe Aesaar!
