A spin-off thread of this one (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,11379.0.html).

Very nice, are those turrets on the top, or docked fighters?
-
They be turrrets. :)
-
The Tennyson is indeed lovely, Ryx. :) Simply stunning. :)
-
Is it available for in game use?
And if yes, can i use it for my Rise Of GCA campaign?
Thanks,
Zarax

I'll fix0r a download soon! ;)

Download!!! (http://w1.520.telia.com/~u52019065/New/Tenny/Tennyson.rar).
You may have to use WinRAR 3.0 (http://www.win-rar.com/index.php?lang=eng&bereich=&prod=) to extract the files correctly.
Note: just the model + texes. It still needs the POF stuff etc.

This is Uber-Cool. You wouldn't want to join LM, now would you? :p

Glad I don't use your naming scheme... otherwise I'd be finishing the Shivanthingy6a.
Nice ship, btw. :)

Its the Iceni-Adv! This time with an etak device that dosn't broadcast the shivan message "Board us and rape us!"
edit: o btw, im getting a crc:cannot copy error when trying to extract from the rar...
-
the model is really excellent, i just don't like *so* much the textures
that model shape also remind me a lot matsumoto's style, wich i love:)
-
Beautiful :nod:
It really is :nod:
-
Turrets are awesome. They better be laser cannons, not beams. Or even better, Vulcans.
-
Should have a greek name. Otherwise truly well done!

Why?
-
GTA ships do in FS.
Looks... armored. Very armored. Though the turrets look like you could snip them off with a coupla Subach shots apiece.
-
especially the front beam cannon. One of my artillery frigate designes looks like that.
I like it, but I have to agree with Stryke and IceFire.
The turrets look hella vunerable and Tennyson to me just screams Civil War Confederates. Unless you are going for that kind of a thing.
-
I can't mod worth a damn, so I'll wait for the final version. BTW, how big is this baby and does she have a fighter bay?
-
Well, she is comparable to an Orion, though 10-20% longer, and she has 2 hangars.
For the turrets, I would want something special, of course. I would like them to be able to punish big caps, but that's not very realistic. Cruisers and down are perhaps more realistic (offset with a longer recharge time).
As for the name, if it doesn't fit your mod, change it (Same goes for textures). :)
@ Vadar: Winrar 3 dude ;)
-
I like the look, for some reason it screams, "Hammer Head" shark! or "Cyclops!" cause of the single beam cannon in front.
As for the turrents, they are ultra cool. Someone link this puppy when it is completely .pof'ed PLS!
-
VERY nice looking ship! And I like the turrets too. :)
:yes:
-
;7 :yes:
-
If you're looking for a Greek style name ... Minotaur,... the outcroppings on the front ... with the angle of the top set I think that name would fit .... unless it's been used of course (Can't remember it's been toooooo long since I've played FS)
But she is a really sweet lookin ship :D

Fenris is Nordic.

where are you going with this?

I think the point is that the names are classical mythological (Greco-Roman and Nordic; anything you could find in Edith Hamilton's Mythology is fair game). The Vasudans and Shivans (Egyptian and anything Evil and/or Hindu, respectively) use mythology almost exclusively as well.

Nordic != Greek
The point was that not all Terran ships were named after Greek stuff, thus discounting Stryke's statement.
Stratcomm's general rule is far better, I'd say, but one I'd not bother to follow, myself. Tennyson is a perfectly good class name, in my opinion.
-
Well, I don't know, I personally could never get over a ship class named after a poet. I am in favor of a rename, though I agree that it doesn't have to be mythological if you don't want it to be. Just please don't name it after a star system or a Victorian era poet.
-
Damn nice ship dude !:yes:
Believe it or not, i once called one of my models **** stain:D
All my models suck though:D

Ryx, if you keep on designing NTF-esque ships, I'll bug untouchable to death. :p
-
That is a very nice ship!! :eek:
-
Looks so much like the Taiidan Destroyer from Homeworld... :nervous:
But nonetheless, it looks A1-SUPAR!
-
thanks:)
-
Very good, but the front is a bit too blocky, try smoothing it out a bit.
BTW, about that turret in front, does it work? I heard FS2 had probs with vertical turrets.
-
Personally I think the entire thing kicks a hell of a lot of ass. Incredible job!
-
Is this ship slated for a specific mod? If not would you be willing to allow it to be used in Beyond Redemption?
-
It's a public release. If you can get it in game, you can use it.
-
NICE!!!
I can't mod to save my life, so when this is fully converted (i.e. you can use it as-is, without messing about with paths etc.) PLEASE put it up for download somewhere!
The turrets on top look a wee bit fragile, so you could just make the stalks a bit shorter and thicker (I also like Hades' Vulcan cannon idea). A Deimos/ Hecate - style skin would be cool too!
Kick-ass ship, so keep doing stuff like this.
-
I concur with pyro-manic; is this bad boy available for public download yet? :D

These are the 'raw' model files. It still needs the pof/ts stuff. If anyone has converted it properly, I don't know.
-
Great model man!:yes:
Well done texturing...
B.t.w. - you should do something with the forward beam cannon, it doesn't look like it has a very good FOF (field of fire).
-
I will post my results. My best work is secret and more frustrating is after I found it and said (that's an evil looking ships I wanna make this bad boy scream (fear me) I spent 16 hours texturing it... Then I red the little note placed with the file (this model not ready for FS2)... AARGH!!!.. I don't wanna bother anyone but is someone is willing to take a look at it and keep it to themselves (not the model, but how it looks) I'd appreciate it cause it's an important bad guy ship and I'd like it in game.
[EDIT] HAhah I am so lost! I expected 1 model not 4! So what do you do just convert to cob and then PCS?
