Title: Cool new idea!
Post by: Red5 on October 26, 2001, 12:05:00 am

Hey guys i am trying to make a mini cruiser gunship outa the Chronos cruiser. Instead of beefing up the ship itself, im gonna modify the cargo. I want to take the Cargo03 Tac1 or whatever and make it into weapon box, 2-4 cannon on left and right side and 2 on the top to compliment the already existing "weapons spoiler" near the bridge.  I tried Kazans POF editor but i guess it wont work unless i have some type of objects for the turrets?  can any one create little turret objects for me so i can make the cruiser work?  

 thnx

Yeah the cargo container needs turret subobjects. I thought someone had already made armed cargo containers? Still its a fairly simple modification, so I'll have a go at making one.

Hehe, Fulgrymm, now you've done MODs for both the Cronus and the Chronos! Let the confusion begin!  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)
