Post by: Flipside on March 07, 2006, 07:37:46 pm: Yup, they were an Easter Egg once you enable the cheats on FS2, you had to type YARRWALKTHEPLANK or something to make them magically warp in and Flak everything ;)

I still think we should HTL it and put the faces of the SCP team on it for FSO ;)

Also, if you remove the No_Fred tag from the description, you can create missions with fleets of them. Tough as Lucifers, but not quite the Firepower ;)

Post by: Nuclear1 on March 07, 2006, 07:38:31 pm: Nothing new. We've all known about the scurvy Volition brand of pirates on th'open seas.

Actually, if you've played Derelict at all (or JAD2) you've probably seen it in action.

Post by: Dark Hunter on March 07, 2006, 07:40:40 pm: Yeah I figured someone would have found out about it earlier... it's not what you call well-hidden. I just wondered what was up with it.

I have played Derelict actually but I'm trying to think about which ship it was.........

Post by: Flipside on March 07, 2006, 07:41:53 pm: You'll know it if you see it ;)

Post by: Dark Hunter on March 07, 2006, 08:29:27 pm: HOLD ON!!

(this could be a spoiler alert, so I'll use a cheap trick ;))

Spoiler:
It isn't the Marie Celest is it? I just thought that was and imported model.

(I think I screwed up on the cheap trick mentioned above.....heh)

Fixed. //-Taris

Always kinda wished they had a description of it in the tech room :D

Post by: StratComm on March 08, 2006, 03:08:42 am: Can someone tell me why that's indexed into the translation table? It's not possible to see that without cracking the VPs on a standard install.

YARRWALKTHEPLANK

Close, but it's arrrrwalktheplank. It's easy to mess up on the number of r's. :D

This ship actually rather sucks by default. I modified most of its weapons (the Shivan super laser works well for turret08, the Vasudan figurehead) and changed the supercap class to cruiser, so you can give it orders.

Post by: Dark Hunter on March 08, 2006, 12:06:49 pm: thank you whoever fixed my above post!

It would be very interesting to actually use these ships in a campaign..... I think Derelict was the only one who has, right?

Just Anouther Day (or was it JAD2?) used it to hilarious effect... (knew the destroy-universe SEXP was a bad idea)

Mrah! Spoilers //-Taris
Sorry... :blah:
