I decided to show that we are actually doing something here. Some pics of raider frigates being blown to bits by Kushan missile destroyers.







And here's a turanic raider corvette:



Lastly, some size comparison. From left: Taiidan target drone ( ), Taiidan interceptor, Kadeshi advanced swarmer (may need to be scaled down a bit), Taiidan Heavy Corvette, Kadeshi Multi-beam frigate and Taiidan Ion Cannon Frigate:



All pics were taken with Komets great looking effects mod, many thanks to him.

I haven't looked much into AI editing, so I'm not sure if it can be done or not.

If bobbau gets his fighter beams to work(which I'm quite sure he will) the Multibeamer will use a fighter AI to make it act more like the one in HW. Otherwise it'll just have to be a capship, which looks a bit strange.

Are you sure that MBF is the right size? Cause I remember it being bigger, almost as big as a frigate...

I'll have to check that, it may be a bit too small right now. Though I remember it was really small for a frigate.

Twice as big as that 'Vette....

They are the "afterglows" of explosions. They look a bit strange(ie. remain there too long after the actual explosion) because I used the wrong effect. They're a lot better now

Christ1 I'm overcome! A new thread? Here? Surely not? And it reports on TAP's progress? Dear God, no, this isn't possible!

Sorry about that, I just find it hard to cope with the fact that this forum is being used again, after so long.

Fighter avoid beam, fighter live

Something will be done to keep the beams in balance, don't worry.
