Some time back one of the modellers whipped up a "modernised update" of the hecate destroyer. Given how long ago this was posted (and the fact that I can't seem to get the search function working :( ), does anyone know who created this item or where I might be able to find it?
It was a more fluid "stealth" looking design, though still similar enough to recognised as part of the hecate family.
-
The only Hecates i know of are, the one i made for inferno the GTD Icelus(sp, and my very first model). The other one was made for a campaign called Dark..... can't remember the full name of it but i'm not sure if it was ever released, or do you mean the HTL version of the Hecate?
-
As I said it was some time ago. I should probably dig out said mod campaign and take a look if its the one I remember.
-
I think you're talking about Raptors high poly Hecate. Am I right? You're just looking for a better looking hecate and not a completely new model??
I dunno if that was ever released, you'd have to ask Raptor.
-
The HTL Hecate is in the MediaVPs...try Hades Combine. Trashman made some variants that are up there.
-
Was it Grim's Hecate?
-
There's also the Hecate 2 from Dark Alliance:

I inherently despise anything with a "mk*" in the name.
-
Stealthy looking? Well, if by stealthy you mean having some buish glowing parts, then that could be mine..
It has blue engine intakes and some bluew part next to the front beam cannons...
-
I think that may have been the one actually trashman... I'll take a look.
-
And I actually started to add slighly more detail to it (particulary the front wings and hte two rear towers).
But that wil lhave to wait till I finish the Demon..It's not easy to maek that griders sorata look...
-
to my mind there shouldn't be a "mk2" terran destroyer, as the hecate is the successor to the orion, so the successor to the hecate could be a "GTD Themis class" (look it up, greek titan of justice and order, mother to the fates, etc.) or something along those lines.

I think that's the first one I thought of when he was describing it. Has a sort of gently curved neck doesn't it? Was it originally posted as fancy renders on white BGs?
-
That is teh ugleh.

Glasshouse, meet stone-thrower.

I never made a Hecate MK2. Some people called my GTD Hera a Hades[/i] Mk2 though... maybe that's were you're getting confused.
And yes, that Hecate 2 is just... nasty.
even Viper mk II?
:(
The better version. Especially when it's the 1978 one. :nod:
-
Just so I don'thave to open a new thread - finished tinkering with my Hecate (again)

This is a very crappy shot:

Hey! A TM design I don't not like! :D
-
Looks good.
Sorry Raptor, don't mean to besmudge your name. Maybe it was Raven's Hecate?
It was funky though. In a good way. Seemed to have a lot of new green colouring in it.

It's okay. And likely yes, you meant Raven's Hecate.
I've never really been a fan of the Hecate myself. Too flimsy looking, all those bits hanging out. It dosn'st have that 'solid-block-of-armour' feeling that the Orion has.
Then again people could say the same thing about my Hera...
-

My design? :confused:
It's the Hecate with more detail..
The correct wording would be - TM's "refit" or "version"
-
You got any plans on finishing the Hera, Raptor? It was looking a hell of a lot better than the original hades. No textures had been added though, right?
And as for flimsy... well, I definately say its a big step closer to the engine-fitted-rectangle design ethos of the orion when compared to the hecate. Again in a good way.
Plus it has that main gun that promises so much lovin.

Well, I tend to think your designs are too blocky for my liking. They give me a certain vibe. But I can't really explain it. Not my style. This one is good though. Nothing drastically changed...
-

Plan to, but it's going slowly. Texturing is in progess. Lots of lights/windows added and some details. It's the main hull plating that hold things up. Plus I doubt I'm doing things the best way... (ship hull uses 2 2560x2560 maps, reduced to 2048x2048 for in game, plus 1 nameplate.)
And as for flimsy... well, I definately say its a big step closer to the engine-fitted-rectangle design ethos of the orion when compared to the hecate. Again in a good way.
That was the idea :D. It was intended to be a 'throwback' design.
Plus it has that main gun that promises so much lovin.
Main gun? :confused: It had (small) moon cracking missiles (once I figure out where to put the launch tubes again...) but no super massive gun... just a heck of a lot of smaller ones :cool: (we're currently looking at 60+) ;7

First entry. ;)

They are utterly ****e and ludicrously overpowered. They were my first and last Mods.
-
Hmmm, I seem to remember a big main gun on the nose. But then maybe it was just a very close up shot of a normal cannon. Plus its also been a while.
-
Trash,
Oh man, I totally forgot to tell you over messenger when you showed me that pic. I did not like the barrels. I think they could be much more detailed... Since it's a HTL model, shouldn't the guns be also? I'm not talking about the bases (they can get by) just the barrels. :D Other than that ROCK ON!!!
@Raa,
"Hey! A TM design I don't not like! :D" - Why am I not surprised...
@ Trash,
"My design? It's the Hecate with more detail.." - :lol:

The gunz look better up close..alltough they could be better..
ahh..it is finally cleared for download (AT LAST!)
