I heard some people clamoring a while back that Dark's PVI Karnak is in 3 pieces. Well, I've fused them together into one POF (the reactor is still seperate though.) Fully turreted, with subsystems, dock points, and fighterbay paths!

Just like on the original, you can blow open the doors to the reactor vents, fly inside, destroy the reactor, and try to get out before the shockwave consumes you. Using this with turret-lock-all on the main station is recommended.
NOW WORSHIP ME YOU UNWORTHY SWINE!!

:blah:
meh, i don't think you spent enough time on it. Just a hunch tho..
;)

*damns KT to an eternity in the firey bowels of... NEW JERSEY!!*

woa woa woa, you don't have to go that far. It was only a joke man :nervous:
I just kinda realised, the Karnak looks less Vasudan and more early terran or something. It has those odd amun/typhon textures that don't look all that alien, just old.
Just to toss around the idea, maybe the Karnak could be reskinned more like the Cairo or maybe to look a little more terran. Or is the skin what makes the Karnak vasudan?
-
ooh.. sweet. G'job :yes:
Yeah, that skinning is a bit bland.... never liked the typhon, 'specially its textures. I wonder if adjusting the brightness/contrast/hue on those skins'll make it look any better...
BTW: Has cardinal spear for FS2 been released yet? haven't heard abot it for a while...
-
Dark hasn't ben seen for years so I would guess that nothing has happened
-
Does it have a site?
And yea, The Textures remind me a lot of a Deep Space 9 kinda. :devil:
-
Pretty good. :yes: The icon looks kind of weird though; try having it shown from the top instead. I actually really like that old-style Sahr texture style, but it does look a bit repetitive on this model, at least on the outside.
-
Leave me alone. I didn't texture it. :nervous:
I tried a top-down icon and it didn't look so good. I'd rather not have to re-do it. (You're lucky you got an icon at all. :p)
-
Looks a bit like DS9...
-
WOOT!
Oooh... suppose the inside of the shaft doors, the reactor, etc., were glowmapped? ;7
Nice work. :yes:
EDIT: oops, never mind... it is glowmapped :o

People have been saying that since Dark first released it.

yes, it is ds9, but it is nice indeed:yes: :)
-
DS9 or no DS9, it's about time the Vasudans got there own station for FS2! If it works, use it! I know I will. :yes: :cool:
-
Check out Casualties Of War. There's a real beauty of a vasudan station in that.

Flamethrowers are under the seats, but you have to wait in line to refill at the tanks in the back. Stay out of the ventilation shafts if you don't like Shivans. Read Karajorma's FAQ, do the FRED walkthrough, and enjoy your stay. :wink:

I edited it cause not everyone knew that particular abreviation :)

Cool - thanks for going through the trouble, GE. :yes:

YEAH BABY, This is great GE. This will open up 2 entries in my ships table for those models I couldn`t use till now, woo hoo.. Was going to give you a big hug, but I don`t know you well enough, so instead i`ll say :D thanks a million dude:D
This is the best idea for the Karnak, or any model yet..
And thanks again:D :D

I kind of agree, so did redo the textures to be more terran. Not much, the doors, insides of hanger bays and reactor chanels were completely replaced, but the outside was same texture with main colour changed from redish-brown to bluely-metal.....
I'll post a pic if people wahnn see...

Oh, just that, to me, my reskins are nothing compared to those produced by the people who have been here longer:(
I am in the middle of seting up a test mission (nasty weapons array on this battlestation ;7). I'll get some in game pics..

Ummm there's another V station out there ,.. Cario or something ,.. basically a station built into an asteroid.
and the Karnak retexture....awsome!

The Cairo is the tall pyramid-looking thing. The asteroid base is the Cheops.

Which Vasudan stations can be extended to the FS1 era, besides the Karnak?

You see, to play FS2, I need my screens gamma correction on full, with the ingame brightness on full as well....:rolleyes:
As for downloads, er, can people download files from Angelfire?
If not, is there a kind soul who would host the download?:nod:

If you are refering to that Earth, Moon, and the station, I think I can find somewhere to stick them. It'll have to wait until next week (when I'm back at my school comp) before I can do much with it though. E-mail me sometime.

I thought people wanted just the station, but I could include the backgrounds and a sample mission as well...;7

I wouldn't mind both ;7

Looks Like G.E. is letting peeps test out Karnak huh? OK I need a modling whiz like aldo to step forward to do some work on this baby (Link to picture.) I have to make it BIGGER not quite big enough to get starships through the doors but almost there... Oh and the other stuff is interesting too ;)

Ok so SDF-3 comes outta quantom fold and we see this huge station wi fighter deployed. Also some cruiser/battleship is nearby. We get hailed immediately and turns out this sector is controlled by "The Federation" The other forces are reprresented by "Earth Dome" and "The Narn Regiem". Man I tell you the Narn have Nice ships. I also talked with some of the fighter pilots. The big grey WWII looking ships are called EA BUlldogs (one of a new line), might not be pleasing to look at but man do they pack some firepower. 8 cannons forward, 2 backward, and 5 rocket pods forwar & Backward! no wonder they have 1 pilot and 3 gunners per ship! I tried to get closer to these "Psi Corps" fighters, but I was firmly told to maintain a discrete distance. The pilots were very tight lipped and creepy. All the info I got for now. Maybe we can swing a cultural/military dialogue/exchange with these people... L8tr peeps!!!

Star Trek & B5 meet Robotech on steroids!!!!!!

Due to uncompatibility I've just about reached the end of the Star Trek conversions. Here's most of what's left in story form... Enjoy!
Getting a scoop from the "Star Base" I headed out near a sector called "Wolf 359". Scuttlebutt suggested trouble from some entities called "The Borg" and since that is the route they took before to get to Sector 0,0,0, this time the Alpha Quadrant would be ready. I was allowed to come pretty close to the assembled ships once my identity and intentions were know (and indemnified them against my 'accidental death' while in the area. :rolleyes: Anyway this is what I saw when I got in system, not that only HALF of the assembled fleet can be seen due to my cockpit blocking the vidcamera.
(http://photo.starblvd.net/Star_Dragon/6-4-4-1049585813?m=0&pg=5&ro=3&co=3)
Next shot is a small craft they call a type 9 shuttle. They were buzzing all over the place like bees along with 2 other types of small craft..
(http://photo.starblvd.net/Star_Dragon/6-5-1-1049361685?m=0&pg=5&ro=4&co=0)
These ships are the Federation fighter, and standard Runabout. Wanting more interesting viewing I started to get closer to the bigger ships when SOMETHING appeared in my way out of thin air, er, I mean space! Yup it was Section 31 (but since they are creepy too I guess it could have been that 'Psi Corps'...Whatever.
(http://photo.starblvd.net/Star_Dragon/6-5-2-1049586264?m=0&pg=5&ro=4&co=1)
There was this one capital ship that looked very much like an Eagle (very Pretty). This ship is crewed by a race called Romulans (look like Elves to me!) :lol:
(http://photo.starblvd.net/Star_Dragon/6-5-3-1049586456?m=0&pg=5&ro=4&co=2)
I digress... After looking at a Klingon Strategic Command Ship, the Federation SteamRunner, Norway, and Constitution classes I figured I'd seen enough.. Preparing to leave I stumbled upon something NOT friendly! It open fired immediately so I terminated it with extreame prejudice! (Later I was to find out that this was a 'shadow Fighter' a living death machine with bigger and meaner brothers).
(http://photo.starblvd.net/Star_Dragon/6-5-4-1049586499?m=0&pg=5&ro=4&co=3)
Shortly after that incident the lead flagship ordered all vessels to immediately depart for DS9 (aka Karnak :lol: ) seems the enemy intentional let 359 route slip to section 31 personel so it would get the whole Alpha Quadrant riled up. It worked. I never seen so many huge ships take off that fast in close proximity to each other. That's training!.. L8tr peeps!
(http://photo.starblvd.net/Star_Dragon/6-5-5-1049586540?m=0&pg=5&ro=4&co=4)
I hope you enjoyed this post (I don't make many like this). Both pimping and entertaning.. (crosses fingers) ;)

:eek::eek2::eek:
Give this man a site for a ST-FS2 TC, double quick!
I'd love to create some weapons for that lot!
-
I have over 10 different sets for torpedoes and beam effects sitting in a folder cause I don't know hot to do more than basic torpedoes. If I have 30 images for the quantom to Fluctuate in flight, can I make it an animation and fire the animation???? There are a few cool weapons that would be made (and a few photon varients too like the heavy red and blue micro torps with long spkies!)... Ahem...
The Federation rushed to Karnak, er, I mean DS9 and sure enough the Enemy turned out to be some dude calling himhelf the Galactic Emperor (like I voted for him or something) ;) . Truns out he used the borg and shadows as patsies and got the Bajorains to evacuate the station. He forced th remaing Fed personel into an Orion blockade runner and dropped them of in Jersey somewhere (with no wallets and no shoes!) What a jerk...
Anyway we tried to liberate DS9 from the evil villan but to no avail. The station is one tough nut! It had 5 Sreds, and over 15 launchers of Photons and Quantoms (total of around 30!)... Here's what happened visually (I hope you like G.E... Oh and THANK YOU!!!!) :cool:
All ships open fire!
(http://photo.starblvd.net/Star_Dragon/4-1-1-1048615956?m=0&pg=3&ro=0&co=0)
Watch out for those weapons!
(http://photo.starblvd.net/Star_Dragon/4-1-2-1048616077?m=0&pg=3&ro=0&co=1)
Too Late...
(http://photo.starblvd.net/Star_Dragon/4-1-3-1048616128?m=0&pg=3&ro=0&co=2)
Well that's it for a while... If anyone (like Diamond Geezer ;) ) Feels like getting these .pofs set with weapons and subsystems ect.... I will send them over the weekend.. Right now I am resizing the cobs. fizxing texture glitches, and shielding them... After that it's up to someone else :) If you want I can send the torpedoes, and the extra wepon GFX files... In a few days.. I tired and busy now! :nod:
-
What, no BVas? :blah:
I would convert the models, but I've got plenty to do already with Star Wars. Oh, and DS9 has the arms facing inwards, not outwards.
-
This will be the "poor man's substitute" till I can get a proper model aquired. And the weapon loadout for the station was just for the screens. I was thinking of that episode when the Klingons Attacked and Sisko opened a can of Whoop-A$$ on them! Especially with all those photon in the air!!! (my favorite weapon... ;)

I only found it in the Unholy Alliance mod pack. I'm in the process of adding LODs, debris, dock paths etc. so I'll re-release it when I'm done like I did with the Karnak.

The one-piece one's good, as well. :yes: :yes:

Congradulations on wasting your and my time replying to msg you don't care about. I appreciate your help mate.

No thanks mate. I was just hoping for a single pof. I've had a few goes at assembling it in FRED2 myself. It's a pain huh...
-
Pegasus: bumping is bad. Simply post a new thread and link to the old one next time.
That said, FSCZ would be very happy with a Karnak pof too.
-
Meh, leave him alone - he only wanted to know if the model was available.. not exactly worth starting a new thread for, although he could've PMd the creator.
Whatever... what's done is done.
-
I must say that the Idea of putting Star Trek, B5, Robotech and Star Wars together is .... to put it very mildly...intruiging...

Download the FSPort. It's included there.

Yeah, but it's still in three parts. Just wondering if there was a joined .pof. Thanks anyway guys.

???
The FSport Karnak I have is whole. Do you have the very newest version?
If necessary, I have a single-model Karnark that I can stick on my low-budget website and you can get it from there...
-
Yurr. You'll still need the central reactor thingo though.

BTW: Has cardinal spear for FS2 been released yet? haven't heard abot it for a while...
I've sent an updated version of the campaign to the FS2 upgrade people. It's now a little more consistent with the canon.
I'll release an FS1 version soon. With BWO moving over to HLP this would be the place to release it at.
Anyways, as for the DS9 comments. I asked Dark to make the design similar to that because it would have a central reactor and the spoke setup would allow for drydock pylons and such to be added in.
It should look a little better in the new FS1/2 version due to some small tweaks here and there.
-
Is the Karnak the Shivan installation?
-
No. Vasudan.

No, the Port includes the joined version (at least, the latest version does). All three spokes are joined to the central chamber. The reactor is a separate POF, but that's to allow for mission scripting involving blowing it up.
-
Thanks a lot guys! I really appreciate this. :)
