Title: 3 more MODs left to go...
Post by: Mad Bomber on September 28, 2001, 08:20:00 pm
While the Boreas is done, and the Peleus, Tuket, and Atropos are all in progress, nothing has been done about the GVF Heptu, GTB Cronus, or the GTD Hades MK2.

I need people to do the Heptu, Cronus, and Hades2; they are all necessary for the Eden Project. Once they are done I'll shut up about it  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif). Anyways if you want to do one of those three, sign up first by emailing me at  [email protected]  or ICQing me at #83934967. Drawings of the ships are found on this old thread (//"http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/Forum2/HTML/000658.html").

And a hearty and gigantic thanks to all the MODers and FREDitors who have helped me so far: Jabu, Psycho, Stryke9, Fozzy, Ulala, BlueLion, Akira, the guy who did the Pulsar Cannon (i'll edit the post when i remember his name), and Aldo_14  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

The Eden Project is the collective name for the campaigns Winds of Fate, New Frontiers, and Echoes. I have 2 reasons for calling it the Eden Project:

1) something in the systems past Adhara... you'll see...  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)
2) I needed something to call the larger project other than referring to all three campaigns. It takes less time to type "The Eden Project" than "Winds of Fate, New Frontiers, and Echoes"  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

Besides, all three campaigns will use the same MOD package, and THAT needed a name too  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

Oh. Righto  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

And one other thing. The SVas beam cannons were all supposed to be towards the center of the front, not in the middle of the arms. The ones on the middle of the arms were supposed to just be Teran Turets.

Oh well  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

I'm prob. going to start on a new bomber (design unconfirmed) as a 'bonus' ship for my campaign.... you could have it (the only other campaign) for the Chronos if you want  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

You mean the Cronus. The Chronos is a freighter.  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

Chronos = the god of Time
Cronus = Biggest baddest Titan. Had a magic sickle. Ate Zeus's brothers and sisters, and hawked em back up when his wife Rhea gave him a nausea-inducing herb.

And I need to see if i want to accept it or not. The whole premise behind the Cronus was that it should have 2 turets, since turets increase survivability by 40% in battle. If your bomber is gonna have 2 turets, sure. If not, then I'll keep asking around.  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

Question: Why would you change your name if you are so worried about everyone knowing who you are? It's like getting a fake ID and then telling the store manager you're 12.

Well, I'm not sure yet.... I have a vague design premise that seems quite good.  It'll be an 'elite' heavy bomber (somewhat simililar to the Gagana) offered as a bonus - like the Artemis DH and Ares.  I'm not sure on 2 turrets - definately 1 rear mounted Maxim / Raptor or something.  I'll post a picture when it's textured, so you can decide.

Okay. First, as for Treize, the MODs are not done yet. Just the Boreas. And i dont want to send the MOD package until all of them are done and stuffed into a VP file.

As for Aldo, whether i use the bomber or not depends solely on whether it has 2 turrets or not. I'm downloading it either way, of course, since i am a MOD collector, but I personally won't use it in the Eden Project unless it has 2 turrets, preferably on different faces of the ship.

Ok, no bother.  i'm afraid I think I'll only have 1 turret, as it's more designed around that way.

Cool. I look forward to DLing it and adding it to my collection  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

As for the Eden MODs, the Cronus is not that hard to make. I intentionally gave it a boxy design, to make it easier to create.  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif) The only real trouble is the 3 thrusters and the 4 turret subobjects (they are double barrel multipart turets).

The GTD HadesMK2 just involves adding 21 turrets to the original GTD Hades model.

Vasudan ships are inherently more difficult to MOD and the GVF Heptu is probably no exception. It still shouldn't be too bad, since the curvy parts are pretty simple as curves go, and it's part boxy.

because treize kushrenada is so played out. if i was trying to hide it, i wouldnt say, "fabolous_blood aka treize k." i needed a new tag name. just look at my signature.

also, i didnt tell madbomber i had this as my screen name in this forum.

Okay. I REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY need someone to do these MODs. Cmon... the Cronus isn't hard to do, aside from the turets... and the Hades2 is crucial to the plot of NF and Echoes...

Hmmm... Slight prob. I gave it better turrets (you'll see them when my server goes back up, along w/ my email), but TrueSpace is the program of pure evil and I only have a vague idea of how to do stuff in it. Might be a few weeks, thought I should let you know.

Okay, as long as it gets done. Thanks for the turet changes :-)

No, that was just Mad Bomber fainting when he saw all his lovely new ships.  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

Thaaaats right  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

Someone did say "bump" though... about two months ago... lol  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

Fulgrymm has been l33t tho, doing almost all of the models for the Eden Project so far. Thanks again dude  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)
