Can some of you point out some good transports...
I've started doing something and like the direction it's taking, but I want some other transport than an "somewhat ugly" Argo
-
As in people transport, generic cargo-or-people transport or cargo transport*
(i.e. internal cargo, not a freighter)
-
yes :nod:
-
I think transports have to be ugly :)
I'd like to see another heavy armed transport. Like the satis.
Something like a special operation freighter for important cargo.
-
You know, I really need to get that tug/pickup-truck POFed and tabled and released, since Venom did such a good job texturing it. :D
-
the rar I sent you contains the pof alrady, it just needs the data and tbl :)
-
You know, I actually KNEW that and still forgot it. I remember looking at it in a POF viewer. Oops. :)

I have been meaning to make a transport-cum-flyable heavy fighter thing (alal the millenium Falcon), but never got round to it yet...... ach well, maybe after the exams are done (eep)
As for transports....terran ones should have flat, long edges that meet at an angle IMO. i.e. chunky. 2 key things, I reckon are - a) placing a docking hatch (which is kind of a focal point) and b) deciding if it's atmospheric (which determines where the docking hatch /any doors are, the overall structure, etc).
I'm not sure if I have any decent ones I can show (can only thing of one, which is kind of under wraps).... but there'll be no shortage of examples in other games, that's for sure.

There is actually one about already. Can't remember the name or who made it though so don't let that stop you from making another one :)

The GTT Hunter? Reskinned Amun, damned good job too.
EDIT - Almost forgot. (http://www.sectorfiles.com/ti-file-dump/Shinobi/Tethys.jpg)
The Tethys, by Flipside. Technically it's a courier ship, so it's a transport, or a light freighter if you add on it's specially designed cargo pod. It'll be out with Operation Ragnarok in a few months.

That sounds spookily like something I was planing too, except mine also had a bit of defiant in the mix:nervous: Current desgin also includes SW Assault Transport.
