Sorry for the but I think this is too cool to leave drifting towards the end of this board.

Has this developed any further?

[Water]

Progress has been made, but haven't had a chance to work on it since Christmas.

The Galatea is a good check for wall dimensions. Sorry about the masterchief, sourced it from the net (no name in the archive)
The railings need to be sorted.

[Lyk]

love it, nice work

hmm with the Master Chief in the GTA, the shivans better surrender

[lostllama]

Thanks for replying, Water. Hopefully you can replace the Master Chief models with the new character models that mjn.mixael is in the process of making.

I think the Master Chief should be in one of the main halls as a background character, just as an Easter Egg.

[Water]

Heh, he's scaled to three meters, but as they're freespace meters, anythings possible.

What I'd really like to happen with hangar/launch bays/landing paths: actually landing and taking off from, even be sitting in a ship while is being moved from their storage position to the launching bay and then receiving the green light and take off for every/most mission. Also seeing this ships move and take off as the missions requests them: "Delta wing is taking off to support you Alpha" and being able to actually see the animation and actually have available for the mission as many ships as the Capital Ship has inside.

That would be a cool addition to the game IMHO.

Is this why this is being worked on?

P.S.: I searched for "aunch bays" and the most recent thread I could find was this one.

firstly a 1 year

secondly

No this is for an upgrade to the graphics for the FSPort menu, see http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=71036.0 for the current progress

technopredator, would you please stop resurrecting ages old topics all the damned time. Just don't do it unless you have very good reason to do so. Thank you.

[The E]

And no, in this case, you would be better off starting a completely new topic.

[technopredator]

So is only for a menu display, too bad.

OK I'll try not to "necro-tread" but then you complain that peole don't use the 'Search' function, you should have a specific time to consider a thread dead unless necessary to post in, if you don't have it.

I'll not start a topic on what I wanted because there is not point,  clearly the best advances towards it is this, older topics suggested something similar to my idea but no work so far that I can see, so at the seems nobody is working on it and nobody cares to. I know the game can work without it but I suggested it because in term of gameplay improvement I think it would be a "Cool++" feature, but well...

- There is a bit difference between a thread that is a couple of weeks to a couple of months old and one that is over a year old.

- Water says in the op that this is a project looking into updating the menus nothing more and the discussion in this thread never goes down the path you are looking for

- A search query that finds this should find the thread i linked to which is more up to date

- as for the features you are asking about some features along those lines have been discussed in relation to the catapult system used in BSG for the Diaspora team

[technopredator]

Oh that message... lol, yeah I overlooked it.

I over-read that too, I thought it was a remodeling of Orion for FSO.

Well obviously I didn't find it with the term I entered, all I ofund was 2003-2006 threads (odd enough) and this one, I even tried 2 different terms set.

See? that is so cool, it would be great that being an important FSO improvement  it could be easier to find, maybe on an admin. only edit master sticky: "Major FSO upgrade discussions" where you'd have only links to the actual threads, or something like that it occurs to me, maybe another with "minor upgrades" or something... I mean like a 'master sticky' that I saw, but engulfing the features/models you're working on FSO, FSU & by project, small/big ones, so you don't have so often: "you know what would be cool..." threads. Also another one with discarded ideas that are too far away from FSO game path.

 I have seen the stickies of FSU & SCP & there is not such sticky. I'd lurk more for sure and post less (since you don't like me here nor in RC, yeah don't worry, I notice it) if you had it and the search engine wouldn't give me pages of old threads
