Title: I'm looking for very special ship...
Post by: HermeZ on April 16, 2007, 12:58:00 pm
Hi everyone :)
I'm thinking about creating my mod (not first but first to be released though) and I'm in need of very special ship...
I'm looking for a mothership class starship... at least 10 clicks long... The ship should be able to construct other, smaller ships, defend itself and rest of the fleet and ehh... everything what was (for instance) Pride of Higara able to.
Does anyone knows about such ship :confused: Or maybe someone could model it for me :D
Thanks in advance ;)

Well, I believe he knows as much about Freespace modding as a heavily lobotomized parrot knows about theoretical physics.

Use the TFDx Apocalypse or something. It doesn't have a fighterbay IIRC but you could add one.

If not, use the GTSI LieutenantGeneralMobius'Signature!

I used to havae a large construction vessel liyng somewhere around. I think Noise used it in ITDOH... Not quite up to hte high HTL standards...I think I still have it.

The Colony ship from ITDOH would be OK but it's too small and the model itself is low-poly :(
As for Apocalypse - I've only found beta01 (or alpha) and it doesn't look like a mothership and it's ugly :P

Hm...teh webspace where I uploaded it is no more.... It might be on Hades-Combine, but I doubt it.

I'm not even sure I have in on my HDD (prolly do, I keep all my old stuff). Eitehr way, I can't get it to you before Friday. You might want to ask Noise to forward it to you..

Kepp in mind that it's a constructor and has only a few weak turrets...

And you're right - it isn't on HC :P

If you can :D

BTW I've started using Blender but it will take some time till I will be able to model such big starships...
