Title: GTD Agamemnon, modified GTD Orion
Post by: SFN-Darkwarrior on January 31, 2004, 11:13:05 am

Because I don't know yet how to modell new Ships in TS 3.2, I've just optimized a little bit the good old orion destroyer ;)

Within the rar package you'll find the needed textures (Attention, default orion textures will be overwritten as well! So make a backup), new beam weapons (there's a triple beam in it for the triple gun mounts of the orion), some needed sound, the sounds.tbl (backup it!!) and a test mission, you can watch the GTD Agamemnon killing two Ravannas with the new weapons.

Download the package here: http://www.sci-fi-network.de/Agamemnon.rar

I hope you'll enjoy this nice little modification, I know it's nothing awesome, but it's my first retextured ship, the weapons I gave him are brandnew  from me, too  ;)

So, just give me plz a little bit feedback :D

Greetz,

Dark

Edit: I forgot the beam textures...D'oh...

Here they are: http://www.sci-fi-network.de/effects.rar

Sry...you're right.

Here are some screenis of the Agamemnon. Of course the name plate of the ship is made with the Babylon 5 Type Font:D

OUCH:eek2:

How on earth did you get three beams to fire at once?

Must have closer look....

Can do that using multiple 'fire-beam' sexps' on the same turret with no delay, IIRC.

Well, from the tech - point of view it is just ONE beam, not three.

Fire-Beam sexps' won't help, becaue the beams would hit different parts of the target.

So I used a new bitmap for this, I it is just ONE gun with a triple beam bitmap in it.

And as you can see, I runs ;)

Hmmm, interesting idea. I might want to adopt something like that for some prototype ships in Starforce. They're classified level Omega, so you won't be able too know anything more about them until you play the mod.
