Title: Newbie needs help, I'd like to start building ships ;)
Post by: SFN-Darkwarrior on January 29, 2004, 06:02:01 am
Hi there!

I've already got some experience in designing beam- and fighter weapons, creating campains (I already released a Freespace Mod with campain in Germanys largest gamers magazin) and so on, but I never checked out how to design my own ships and texture them, or just retexture some existing ships.

Could someone give me a short instruction which programms / convertes I'll need and where I can find some tutorials?

Would be terrific if someone could helps me.

THX 'n greets,

Dark

PS: Please excuse any mistakes, but I'm German and English isn't my motherlanguage ;)

Target SFN-Darkwarrior. Target locked. Fire.

:welcome:

Welcome to HLP. There are exits to the left and rear. Do not attempt to use them. Under your seat you will find empty beer cans, cookie crumbs, corpses of newbies, dog eared dungeon Porn mags left by Shrike... oh, and a Flamethrower. Unfortunately, we're out of napalm, so you'll have to bludgeon people to death with them.

In the event of serious conflict, there are plasma rifles in the forward locker, though these can only be opened by an Admin, [V], God, or Hyperintelligent shade of the colour Blue. If, for whatever reason, you find yourself crawling around in the ductwork, there's a better than average chance you'll encounter a Shivan. They're easy to spot with the five legs and all. If you're lucky, it's just Carl, who responds well to food rewards. If not, then at least you die quickly. Be aware that the entrance to the main control room is guarded by subspatial claymore mines.

Do not mention FS3. Karajorma's FAQ is your friend. Worship SCP team as Gods. Have a nice day.

Welcome to HLP, Darkwarrior - great to have you here. :) What's the name of your campaign? What's it like? Would you be willing to translate it into English so we could play it too? ;)

It wouldn't happen to be Revenge Final Conflict by any chance?

Yes in fact, I'm the Author of "Revenge: Final Conflict" How did you know?

Well, translating would be a really hard work to done, the story plot is as massive as a whole book with more then 400 pages.

There would be approximatly more than 140,000 words to be translated, I don't think I could make it without help of others.:rolleyes:

Maybe I'll start some day of translating a mission, every day one mission...would be 3 month of work, but maybe I'll do, would be a challenge ;)

But I have to inform you, Revenge FC is really hard to play, considering the advanced weapons and so on, I wouldn't say you should play higher than medium skill level. ;)
