Title: RELEASE: GTC Marauder
Post by: Apollo on May 07, 2011, 03:03:13 pm
A cruiser I made using Dekker's GTC Baldur retexture and some modified effects from mediavps and Inferno. It is heavily armed, but most of it's anti-fighter weaponry is only effective within 600 meters.

I like idea of evolving original Fenris design into newer ships, and I like that teal beam cannon.

The beam cannon is simply a recolored SGreen. :D

That beam reminds me of an Orion. :)

What should I do next? I don't want to release another Fenris, but I don't feel ready to work on a campaign.

Adding wiki articles for reskin weapons on a standalone ship release is maybe a bit much, but otherwise cool stuff.

Good job; you've taken the right step forward in learning how to mod for FS2.  But don't stop here!  :nod:  Pick up a free modeling program (eg Blender, Wings3D, etc.) and start making your own mesh.  And before you know it, you'll be making your own original stuff.

There's a criterion applied on most wikis called 'notability'.

Well it's not a problem until someone tries to monopolize the Wiki by saturating it with articles for some unreleased mod. I guess on principle it should be prevented though, before that happens.

Good stuff :)
You should look into learning to reskin Apollo. I think a black stealth/black ops Aeolus/Elyssium could be the next thing. . . As I lost my ones.
