Title: MOD request. Civilians?
Post by: Pegasus V on September 09, 2001, 08:56:00 pm
What about the civilians of the GTVA? Surely they have some means of transport of their own, rather than the military transporting them to their destination all the time. Can someone make a PCS (Personal Communter Shuttle) and perhaps a Space Liner?

What do you think?

I made a largeish transporter. Well, it's just out of texturing phase, so it'll take a while to finish.

I think [V] meant the Elysium to serve that purpose, but without a military transport, they had to use theElysium in FS1, so it's image got muddled.

I might knock together 1 or 2 once I've done some other stuff.... I have to finish a semi-pseudo-geo-moddable ship type thing at the mo.

Somebody did a "space SUV" a while ago, I never tried it out and have forgotten who did it origianlly but here it is- just find the author if you use it for a campaign, OK?

And I do have 3 civilian vehicles in production- if you want 'em you'll have to texture them, but I can knock one up by... say... Saturday.

Would you be able to release them just to me? I'm not currently making any campaigns so it will only be for my personal use... Pretty please?  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/evil.gif)

Well the GTVA had to have done SOMETHING with all those old GTS Centaur support ships. Selling old hollowed out support ships to the public as personal space vehicles would be a great money maker. I mean according to a number of campaigns, they already sell their old fighters, why not their old support ships?

Hey that's good... maybe i should add a civilian Centaur to the Eden Project... time to open WordPad!  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

Hey, that's a great idea! It's a shame that I've already decided that the Centaur is going to be a worker bee. You know, the ones that fly around ships to fix them and construct them and to give them maintenence, etc?

I could use the Scarab support ship as a Vasudan civilian transport. I had assigned it to be a new light fast transport though...

Maybe Drone02 could be used as a civilian ship. (you know, the old Chronos ships - they were civilian, right?) But I've used Dark's medical ship skins for that ship.

I've got it! I'm not using Drone01... I should change that into a civilian ship..... Yeah?

 I would think mothballed military freighters and such would be prime choices for civilian transports.

yep. the Chronos is a good choice, although i personally would get the proper, turreted, POF, since drone02.pof is unarmed.

Hmm... (looks at status of MODs)

If I still have a few of my old StarLancer ships some of the cargo haulers in it would make great Civy ships with little work to convert to FS2

I'll look one or two MIGHT make for a good shuttle....donno about a liner thou

Thankfully I had this one uploaded.

It's by definition a civilian cruiser, but then again, all those big ships that cruise the oceans are called cruisers  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)

I need to LOD and convert mine. But before that I need to find it. I've got about 200 model and scene files in about 3 folders, and Pete only knows what I've named them.

Also needs a few turrets and docking port graphics.
