I have made a new ship...as I would do anything else...
Pics and backround of the ship you can find here Templar (http://gevatter_lars.tripod.com/templar/)
It has about 890 polys and at the moment no turrets and textures. If someone would texture it I would give the model away. So its a simple exchange. I get it textured and who ever made the textures gets the model.
So any volunteers?
-
Very cool! :yes:
-
If I find a texturer, can I have it?
-
As I have said, who ever textured it can have it.
Naturly I want a copy of it ^___^
-
Wow - very nice design! I love it! If I had the time, I'd texture it, but I'm afraid that I wouldn't do it justice... :doubt:
-
I like the design, although I'm not quite sure which end is the front...
I think of the narrow end as being the front, personally, but I might be wrong, which is why I'm asking :)
-
->Mad Bomber
Yup you are right the narrow is the front.
->Sandwich
Hope you find the time to work on it. BTW do you have the original FS textures?
-> Who was it that dosn't like my designe??? No just joking, tell me what you don't like. Maybe I could change that to improve it.
-
:yes: I like! The bridge structure in particular. Very nice. Too bad I can't texture.
-
Awesome...so awesome...

Huh? I have FS1, if that's what you mean... (and FS:ST... and FS2... and FS Thre - oh, drat! ;) )
-
w00t!! starcraft background!! no opinion on the model..to many flat surfaces...
-
Ahh...kinda confusing to look at that perspective view...
-
->demon442
What do you mean with to many flat surfaces? All the FS ships have flat surfaces, they just hide it better ^__^
->Analazon
Confused? Thats good, if looking keeps you from firing at it the design is better then every shildgenerator could be :-)
-
That ship has a fairly unique style going on. It's pretty cool.
-
The link doesnt work..
-
I can`t really tell much about the ship. Can we have standard top, side and front prjections as well as the perspective one?
-
Why do so many renders contianing a star completely ignore the most prominent light source? Those planets should be lit around the edges only, not from the direction of the view.
As for the ship, I like the design I think. It's a little hard to figure out from the views presented; along with the front and top views, lets see a couple of perspectives showing off the underside/aft sections. It looks like it has a lot of potential, at any rate.
-
The ship is great, but I looks Shivan to me, of course it needs textures, but I think it should be shivan.
Don't worry, it's just my opinion and I'm not sure of that, so It might be a terran-vasudan ship as well.
-
I don't think it looks Shivan at all. If I had to try and fit it with the stylings of a particular race I'd go with the Drakh from Babylon 5. I don't even see that fit as being perfect though.
With most ships I can spot a likeness and say "Looks like the Liberator" or "Looks like the Mega Shadow" pretty quickly. I can't do that with this one. Am I missing something anyone?
-
My guess is a terran vasudan hybrid, but it also looks like it could have a little shivan running through it`s veins;)
-
How big?
Also, you might add a comparison to the Orion, as that seems to be the one everybody uses for comparisons in Destroyer class.
-
-> Size
I don't know the exact lenght, but I think it should be something between the Orion and the other destroyer from FS2 (forgot the name, Hekate?)
->Human, Vasudan, Shivan???
Basicly its a Human Vasuda design, but it has also a Shivan influens. The Shivan part is there, because of a quite easy rule in Warfare...learn from your enemy!
( Friends teach you what you want to know, enemys teach you what you need to know)
But it follows also a new way in fleet designs. With the advantage of Bombers and Torpedos, small vessels (Fighter/Bomber) become a real threat to cap ships. Beside that fighters and bombers can be produced faster and easier than Capships.
-> Differences in the Design
There are two designs in the new Carrier class. Human use more bigger guns(beams) on the Templar combined with a heavyer armor. Drawback is that the Human Templar is slower than the Vasudan one. Also it leaks the point defenc capabilitys of the Vasudan design.
The Vasudans use manly antifighter beams, flak and only 2 heavy longrange beams. The armor is weaker than the Human design. Advantage is that its faster and it carries more fighters.
-
Dang it! Very nice, but I want some newbie that thinks he's all that and makes a crappy ship to come post it here, and ask us what he thinks about, because I want to press the "looks like crap button"!
BTW, voted that it looks good ;) But try adding something on the side, like maybe a
*looks around for Zeronet*
hangar
-
It is nice to see that nearly everyone likes the design, but isn't there a texturer that would like to give it a try?
All I can do is taking existing ones and past them one the hull. But I leak the skills that are needed to make a good UV map, all these things involving "art" and whatever is needed to make textures like the other people.
-
Great design, i see it as vasudan. hey, that might be the inspiration i need to get my creative lego juices flowin' !
-
if you hack into it get into the freespace.vp file and slap some shivan or typhon class skins there all the same practically and i think the typhon ones would be better because all the typhon is a brown backround with blue dots. or you can put some galetae skins or something
i wouldn't know im new at modding and im having my own problems right now but as i said a brown backround with blue dots would look good. and how did you make the wireframe i want to make my own ships i already have a stockpile of skins
-
let me have a copy of the ship ill apply old skins and mod them to look great on the templar im realy artsie at times and im bored out of my mind so let me work on it ill make skins fit them and givce it back to you
-
I need you Email or ICQ.

yeah, me too, it's cool, very anime-like in fact.
If you want, in one week I'm back home, and I might want to give it a go then, but I'd give it anime-like maps ( so very smooth plating ). I see it, mmh, how to say that... Silver like ( if you know vandread or Sol Bianca you'll know what I mean )
What do you think?
-
I have seen some of your work..I think.
They where quite good, beside that, anyone who gives the ship a little bit (good) color can keep it.
Let me see you magic notify me with an Email when you are back and you have time to work on it.

check the "Over the top" forum to see what I can do.

Ahhh I see clearly now...
Nice textures, I like the dark part and the turrets. Especial the turrets...they remind me of something but I don't know what it was...
Btw what do you mean with Animestyle textures? I haven't see the Serie you refering to. Could you post a pic or give me a linke where I can find a pic?
-
Hey Venom I have tried to get you Email to send you the model file, but I haven't found it.
So it seems as you have to send me an Email, or post yours so that I can send you the model file.
Or just confirm me at ICQ
-
is that two diffrent kinds of ships???
the pinchers infront of the ship dosent look right
-
mmh, I'm really too busy for now anyway, I hope you don't mind waiting some time?
-
Since I have no other choice...I will wait
-
where has the webpage gone
-
I can see the page...where is your problem?
