Ok, yellow has been used by the Shivans before, that's evident. I stand corrected. But does a grate strike anyone as more of a humanoid sort of architecture, something that seems out of place in Shivan engineering? :confused:

Absolutely -- but again, the original cutscene did have that grate right there, so canonically grates are a part of shivan architecture.

Shivan ships may look very different on the inside than they do on the outside.

Just like Shivans.  :D

To be fair, humans look plenty different on the inside than they do on the outside too.

Does that make humans pseudo-Shivans? :shaking: :shaking: :shaking:

I have absolutely no idea what the circled things have in relation to your statement, nor, for that matter, how you intend to make FS2 unplayable. All I can say is this: If you make FS2 unplayable, I'll give you such a pinch.

The only way it would be unplayable is if the guy in the options screen chair is not the FS2 Command guy.  :p


No really if the FS2 Command guy is not there someone will complain.

and that someone may-or-may-not end up being me

There will be a guy there.. and he will be the correct race with the same balding hairstyle, but I'm not a good enough character artist to make a human character look exactly like another.

As long as he's close enough and looks like him, then that's fine.  :yes:

Also keep the character model around after you make it, just in case Axem decides they want to make a ship that's a giant T-posing FS2 Command that shoots beams from his eyes.

Holy sh!t, that Shivan mainhall is suitably creepy...

...but thematically speaking, what is it good for? Shivan campaigns? Now there is a novel concept.... :jaw:

No it's not released yet. Aiming for tomorrow. Collabing with Asteroth on a few things.

Clearly you need to play Trimurti. I have the whole Shivan interior environment from the Hall Fight cutscene... figured I should make additional use out of it. (Same as I did the Arcadia interior from the FS1 Intro). Took 4-5 hours to whip up the various animations and one night to render everything. Efficiency, baby.

Re: MjnMixael's HD Mainhalls (Released)
So there actually is a Shivan campaign and it's called Trimurti? Damn, I really have been away too long....

Re: MjnMixael's HD Mainhalls (Released)
Droid also released one a long time ago called Tides of Darkness.  I'm not sure if it is still playable with modern settings, but I enjoyed the heck out of it at the time.  I'm pretty sure there are more, ToD and Trimurti are just the best examples that spring to mind.

Mjn, dude, the creep is real!
