Here is the mesh to it, (I am very bad a texturing). The cockpit is off to the left, the thing in the middle is to maximise loadout. What do you think? I think it needs a few tweaks here and there.

I like the overall shape a lot. It would make a good vasudan craft but the problem is that at the moment it looks like a bunch of Booleaned polys.

With a little more work though this could be a very nice ship :D

I can't see it :(  I also try to click the links you have there and it just pulls me back to this page.

Copy and paste the link in a new window.

Odd looking ship... methinks maybe a civvy design...

I agree with karajorma. If you soften some of the sharp edges, it would make nice Vasudan ship

do you think I will be able to port the offset cockpit correctly?

what, when you convert from cob. to pof. ?
I wouldn't have thought it would make any difference.
(though I'm new to this myself)

no, I mean when I fly it in FS2, will missles comeout in the right spots relative to the offset cockpit?

your laser shots and missles will be offset (depending on where you place firing points) a'la SF Dragon and GTB Ursa, but I'd thought that would be more realistic.
I'd be inclined to get it working and see how it looks. :D

mnftg64, FYI, you can specify where the cockpit is and where the engines are, and where the weapons are fired from, all when you make the POF file.

thanks, I wasn't sure because I haven't gotten into that yet, I still need to texture it. But I did play with the POF editiod, is the cockpit setting the eyespot?
