Title: So it's not exactly the REAL Eve......
Post by: Singh on July 05, 2005, 09:13:58 am
But she's my own at least. Still a WIP, have to do the rear/bridge properly, but wanted to show off the new primary turrets (ignore the small little ones, those are hte bog-standard DoGA ones) and the general design of the new ship :)

It's the model number for the first BattleMech I made with the custom design rules from BattleTech. Standard n00b walking PPC battery o' doom.

Improve on the front side.

Otherwise, it's excellent.

No, my dear friend, that would be this:

Topace: Thanks. I'm trying to re-do the front, but hte lack of appropriate parts makes it sorta difficult.

Progress on the bridge section is approaching completion. The total number of turrets is currently less than what I expect - its just that I have to make proper multi-part turrets, and then put those on. The final size of the turrets will be smaller as well, to give a proper sense of scale.

neat, but 18 fps, w/o maps? I assume it's just for fun, and not actually meant for FS2?  
I like the design, just seems the mesh on the sides of the big turrets is quite messy.

When you take a screenshot, the FRP value ribly drops down. That's the reason.

In case you two haven't been paying attention those aren't ingame pics. Singh's simply using pics he's taken in FS2 as the background :)

The font, the size, position and the colour of the FPS reminded me FreeSpace.

It is the Freespace FPS counter so it should remind you of the Freespace FPS counter :p

The barrels look a little plain. How about some muzzle breaks or somethin' ?

Those are some pretty damn good baclgrounds too.

Anyways, the rear is complete. I'll begin texturing the body, before I begin work in making the multi-part turrets and then turreting the entire thing :)

Looks like it'd be pretty stuffed should anything come up from below it...

I assume it can bank, like, huh, spaceships can bank.
It's too flat for my taste, tho.

I know, I know....I'm working on making the bottom a little less flat, and maybe putting a turret or two underneath.

Texturing is complete though, so that's a plus :)

Ok, she's textured now, and I've added some stuff to the bottom to make it less flat.

Check your engines, btw, looks like you have doublons on the top exhausts.

Woah!

Nice stuff.

That's a lotta guns. :D

Hmm....noted. Looks like a mesh error - will have to correct it a bit (I assume you mean the little bit that's sticking out from the nozzle, right?)


Grug: Thanks. :D

I take it you like battleships, Singh?

Nice - but learn Max so we can have these things in-game. ;)

What can I say except hell yes. I've always wanted to build model ships, just never got the oppurtunity to really do so. But with DoGA, I can actually play with them now without fear of breaking expensive plastic parts and weeks of work :D


Learn Max? NEVER!

*Will have to write a free DoGa like proggy that can export to FS2. :p

on each engine pod, there's 4 brown exhausts (well 5 because of the one that should not be there). The top ones, it's obvious there's 2 when there should be only one

How long are these taking you to make... =o
Title: So it's not exactly the REAL Eve......
Post by: Singh on July 14, 2005, 10:59:05 pm
ermm...mostly just a few hours, depending on the complexity. The mongrel (see other thread) only took me 2 hours to complete. It also depends on if you have a clear concept in mind, in which case completing it within an hour is not difficult.

Hmmm, I guess I underestimated how fluid you are with DOGA by now... :)

I wonder how long it took turnsky to make his stuff considering he's new to DoGA...
