Title: Looking for a Terran bomber
Post by: Galemp on September 17, 2004, 10:28:00 pm
Hi guys.

Listen, I'm looking for a medium-heavy Terran bomber for use in Neo-Terra Victorious. It should be somewhere between the Artemis and the Boanerges in size and capabilities.

It should also look 'old school', that is, have little to no Vasudan influence in the design. This is a Neo-Terran tactical bomber, to slightly exceed the performance of the Bakha. If anyone has any full POFs, textured or untextured meshes lying around that fit, please post 'em here or PM me.

Thanks!

I've got a couple of variations on a theme that need texturing.  Digging up some shots...

Obviously Medusa inspired.  Actually GE, you've seen these before.  But I guess they're technically up for grabs since I can't map the things to save my life.

NTV? Pick one and I'll map it Draco style. I've been getting practice at that recently.

[EDIT] I prefer the wingless one meself.

I've got that interceptor that needs a treatment sometime too, if anyone can use it.  And speaking of the Draco, it looks like it's an abandoned stepchild.  You mind if I LOD it and release it public-like?

I'm doing the interceptor now. The process was kinda complicated. I started doing the interceptor, but Venom had just released his Ezechial pics, so

a) I was fascinated by the whole Black/White contrast thing he was doing with it and
b) Anything I did looked crap by comparison.

I recently wanted to texture something, went through my texturing file and found it again. It’s still pretty cool looking, so I eliminated the old texture and started working on it again, trying to meld it in as closely as possible with the Draco's texturing style. It's actually coming along pretty well - I can send you pics if you want.

Hmm, neither of those really tickle my fancy. I'm looking for something chunkier, and preferably already done.

I understand, and with the way community projects go these things take a while.  Add them to the release pile I guess.

BW: send away :)  Do you still have my e-mail address?

Phoebus for CoW, Holler from Reciprocity.  holler is huge, though. (see siggy for links)

May also want to try and look for the Berserker, which is based off one of the V concepts for the boanerges... I don't have a link for that though, and it is quite old and hence somewhat ugly.

EDIT: actually, there's also the Sthenno, which was designed as a pre FS1 era bomber with a large railgun.  I think it may be being used to TVWP, so obviously there'd be an exclusivity issue in that case.

You mean NTV is ALIVE!?!?[/u] :p

I have the GTB Kronus, if you want it. Very chunky, very Loki-derivative in its skinning. And two turrets to boot! But it's heavier than the Boar IIRC (about Ursa-sized) so I'm not sure it'll fit the bill for your requirements.

I'll pretend I didn't see this topic seeing as how I was told on the FRED Academy thread that all the NTV mods were already done :p

Hey, we have a full VP ready. This wouldn't be necessary until the last missions of Act III. And note that I'm looking for something that's done.

If you're interested... but let's move that discussion to the appropriate thread.

As for the bombers, the Holler looks very interesting. I may reconvert it at a smaller size and with the two side guns fused onto the main body, though, to make it useable. Any other options around here?

It was huge, and it was designed to take out juggernauts.  Wrong era. :)

Yeah, 72 m. long... perhaps I'll reconvert it, and just scale the whole thing down by half. It looks the part, after all.

StratComm, those bombers are very good, but that square thing in the middle needs to go.

Post by: StratComm on September 19, 2004, 03:25:25 pm
The "square thing in the middle" is the third bomb bay.  I could round it out some (probably will around the edges) but the idea stays.  It's really intended to be a medusa-derived sucessor to the Ursa, not a medium bomber.

whatever suits you.

Albeit don't expect any help, because I deleted all the reci cob & max files a long time ago. :)

I'm not in a position to quickly make ships at the mo, unfortunately.

It gives you the privilege of a 22-kilometer tombstone.
