:D:yes:

Like to see some more angles of the second one - the tail fin thingies look kind of strange from that angle. :)

I have to agree with Pyro, the whole rear end looks a bit odd, the engine area (assuming the bit that goes of the screen to be said area) looks now SW in my opinion, it needs to be more bulky with posibly a seperate section for the housing.

Good work mind and real like the freighter and front end of the frigate, very old republic black fleet Dreadnought style, Nice!

Looks much nicer with the specular lighting turned down and a bit of smoothing.

pyro, comic, it might look odd but its accurate to the few pics that exist. I'd didnt design it, just modelled it.

btw the ship is a modified old republic dreadnaught. As for it not looking very star wars I think it has a fair bit in common design wise with the Neb frigate.

there wasn't smoothing at all in the render, my fault.
and for being starwarsy, well from the non canon ships I consider she one of the most coherent with the starwars style.
She is a modification to another ship, so it has an incomplete/patchwork look. In this sense, she reminds me for example the second death star.

To be honest, despite I am a staff member, I have not seen these ships before. :).

I mean the models, of course I have already known these ships before while playing XWA and of course Rebellion :D

"Diseased" is the word I'd have used.

Give it a soft shinemap and it could look even better.

agreed, the shinemaps will make this ship look sweet in game

AH! Now I see...

I wasn't saying I didn't like it, btw - just that the angle of that shot made it hard to tell what the shape of it was. I like it a lot. :)

That be a purty model there.....

I have a question tho, which conflict is this mod supposed to take place durring?

Post by: KARMA on January 29, 2004, 03:14:50 pm

It will be mostly a shipset, focused on the canon trilogy. The esact period will depend by mission designers, we'll release only few campaigns, the rest will depend by the community

Post by: Dough with Fish on January 29, 2004, 03:26:44 pm

Oh.... Well, if it is just a shipset, any chance of seeing ships from the books like Yuzzhan Vong, the Hapans, the Ssi-Ruuvi, or the new fighters like the K-Wing, E-Wing, TIE Avenger, etc?

Post by: KARMA on January 29, 2004, 03:32:28 pm

yes, if you do them:) (except the TA which is almost done)
all the non canon ships, as for those of the new trilogy, are very possible, but have a low priority
