Title: We Love Shivans
Post by: Rampage on January 08, 2004, 06:20:16 pm: Hey Woomeister,

What have you been doin' to those Shivans? I'm just curious, can we have some screenies on some new Shivan developments (I know I sent you some of my AS Shivan ships months ago.) you have on you? Come on, I need some inspiration for Attempted Suicides (yeah, it's still alive...).

Plus, I think this post will put some action to the Inferno general discussion forum.

Cheers!

Post by: Rampage on January 08, 2004, 06:52:42 pm: Yeah. It's just that AS is right now a one-man project. It's hefty job taking care of a teaching job (real life) and a FS2 project (hobby) at the same priority and time.

Oh yeah, the associate principal of my high school propositioned that I won't be teaching American history next year (I failed a good 1/3 of my students first quarter.) but instead AP Physics C. We have a Physics B at my school but not C, so I'll be teaching it. The project I'm working on at a steady pace, but yes, it's alive and breathing, and so am I.

So how about those Shivan ships? ;7

We've been concentrating on the Terran and EA fleets and other parts of the mod recently.

Post by: Rampage on January 12, 2004, 05:11:34 pm: Kewl! How about some Shivan strike craft? I prefer things smaller on scale...

Okay. I'll mull to the point. Are you using any of my Shivan fighter/bomber models?

If you mean the spiky one, i think its the SJ Amaritya (i think i spelt that right)

Post by: Woomeister on January 27, 2004, 03:57:27 am: Amritaya
Title: We Love Shivans
Post by: Goober5000 on January 27, 2004, 02:14:17 pm: The Amritaya just looks ugly. Even in ModelView.

Post by: phreak on February 21, 2004, 06:43:38 pm: i doubt the shivans take aethetics into account when building space craft.

or their standards are different

or they were drunk

Post by: SadisticSid on February 22, 2004, 05:46:05 am: I don't like the Amritaya much either, would look nicer with a greater tiling factor on the textures.

Post by: T-Man on February 22, 2004, 07:18:57 am: I think the main yuk point about the Amritaya (Yey i spelt it right!) is its spikiness, it looks like some demonic porcupine. Also, the fighterbay looks a little too low for my taste.

I think the best option for the Amritaya is for a member of the Inferno team to take it, rip off all the spikes to just leave the basic shape, raise the fighterbay slightly, then just start adding some spikes in places where they would benefit the model.
