Can't beat that I own you all when it comes to who has the fastess P.C.

Um..... a P3 isn't exactly a great processor, anyways.  

FS2 is a space combat simulator. There is no ground in space. Live with it.

I don;t remeber TIE fighter having any surface missions either, and that was a good game.

If I remember correctly their is a traning mission where you have to do a 'Beggar's Canyon" like run. Because the Tie has no shields its a more dangerous ship to fly so command wants to train you to have better reflexes and piloting skills. (watch out for those walls!!!) I hated it and barely got through it...

I whant a Battle of Endor!:nod:  That would be sooo cool to see that, and with no Beams on ships you could rilly cranek the number of ships up high.

lol, intentionally recreating the worst habit of new FREDders - could be fun actually...

[Vasudan Admiral]

if a battle like that was fredded properly, it should work really well. just having a load of ships with "attack ship" orders isn't going to get very far.

The BOE is a real pain in the ass to do - not even LucasArts got it right in XWA.

[Star Dragon]

I love the re-release of the X-wing. It's got that "used" look.
The Y wings are cool too. G.E. did a smashing job, I especially liked how well he got the sounds right for the ships/weaponry (assuming he did it all himself) :wink:

   Karma,
Sorry if I came on too strong about sci-fi3d. I figured mentioning it was taking a shot in the dark, but seeing voyager blast an AT-AT on hoth got me inspired to keep looking for useable things (genre related)...

That was Rebel Assault 2

Yeah they did do it right, you just think that because you could not beat that 3 mission battle, Thats the best BOE I've ever played, and I bet that the Gamcoube one sucks ass, that game should have been made for the Xbox.

BUMPITY!

Been a while since this was bumped. Waiting for hosting and all... Seeing as Karma is working on an A-Wing I've decided to toy around wih Rhino and make a Sun Crusher to go along with my Resonance Torpedo and the supernova code in FS2. Here's a screen of the WIP. I don't know how to turret or texture but I'm working on it. If I can pull this off I'll know how to make a fighter in Freespace from start to finish! Yay.

[Black Wolf]

I've been meaning to post on this thread for awhile, always forgot

Anyway, Karma, what are you waiting for from me? I've lost track of what I have and haven't sent you.

[Knight Templar]

Oh, and the Imperator is supposed to have more than 12 turrets...
6 Mega Turbo-Laser Cannons (Long range anti-cap, mounted on top, 3 per side)
2 Quadruple Mount Heavy Turbo-Laser Cannons (Long range anti-cap, each one is mounted on the side of the 'trench' of the ship)
9 Defensive Turbolaser Turrets (Medium-Range General purpose, 3 in front of superstructure in a line, four underneath and to the rear, 2 near fighterbays,)
2 Mega Ion Cannons (Long range anti-cap, 4th in the series of the large turrets on top of the ship on either side of the superstructure)
30 60mm Point defence Laser turrets (anti-fighter/missle, even distribution)
20 80mm Point defence Ion cannons (anti-fighter/missle, even distribution)
4 Capital sized Proton torpedo batteries (General purpose, two on each side in the 'trench', one close to the front, other furhter back near the midships.)

wow , where did you get those statistics?

[Galemp]

Gee, look what I found! And with a little work, a POF.

It has really bad geometry though. Bobboau did some work on it but it didn't help much; I'll give it to BW when I see him and he can work on it.

[Black Wolf]

Oh...My...God.

I never thought I'd see it... GE, you seriously are the man.

But, um, what was it you wanted me to do to it? I'm not a modeller unfortunately, I do 2d stuff, shield Icons, interfaces, command briefs, etc., and I'll probably end up FREDding when we get that far, but no modelling, sadly.

[EDIT]

Found this on a site, it seems fairly standard -

WEAPONS:  550 Taim & Bak Heavy Laser Cannons;
   500 Taim & Bak Turbolaser Batteries;
   75 Borstel Ion Cannon Batteries;
   100 Phylon Tractor Beam Projectors;
   10 Sienar Fleet Systems Gravity Well Projectors;
   Axial Superlaser (Planet-Destroyer)

We're probably going to have to tone that down just a little, yes?

[/EDIT]

Okay, the geometry is all fixed, it's a completely layered 3DM now. I did all that myself, with Rhino... whoopie! If KARMA can take it into trueSpace, glue its 70 turrets, and texture it, I'll do the PCS, ModelView, and table post-processing.

I'm looking for a tutorial on LODs and debris... Sandwich's tutorial didn't cover those.

[KARMA]

niiiice;)

[Galemp]

New forum graphics, to be used soon (I hope!)




Which of these do we want as an avatar?

[Black Wolf]

Death Star! Go the Death Star!
