Okay, I lied.  I'm back early;)

The only major change is really on the lower port side.  I've tried to keep the starboard side the same as stock (in fact at first I was simply tracing the stocks armour plating onto the new one).  Also I forgot to mention this is an early WIP.

Subsystems would remain where they are (unless they had to move), and I would most likely create several versions with different turret layouts.  1 Stock, 1 refit, 1 my own beliefs....etc

I like the idea of this being a product of Vega/Chapella shipyards, rather than Sol's...

Cobra, was that link to Hammano's super Orion? (link didn't work for me, but thats okay, since I already have it:D)

And Roanoke, I am carrying on with my own stuff.  See my other new thread (wait, you already have:D).  As for the GTD Hera.... You try texturing 2 2560x2560 maps, on a cpu that hangs for a couple of seconds every time you resize/crop/paste/flood fill in PSP7!  It an't fun!:shaking:

I didn't really see any difference. Bob's looks great ingame, too; I much prefer it to any other version I've seen.
Wh00t!? Vinyl? Is it like an I-pod 2 or something?

Why don;t you crop out the bottom quarter and edit it as a 1024x1024?

You mean work on it a bit at a time?

May do that, but it won't help my bizarre problems.  No matter how big or small the bit I'm pasting/filling, It always stutters for a couple of seconds.

Besides, after croping I'd have to paste the edited section back into the orginal...

You overdid the lights, imho.

That's because you're working on such a big image. Using just, say, the bottom quarter should elimiate or minimize the problem. Plus pasting it back in isn't so hard if you use the corner as a reference.

No, it won't.

It dosn't matter how big or small the image is.  It's been doing these bugs on 1288x128 images too.  Heck, even if I cut'n'paste one pixel, the systems hangs for a couple of seconds.

I'm guessing some kind of hard/software glitch.

Fortunatly, the bulk of the tools aren't affected.  So while these bugs are annoying, I can still work on textures (not that I'm much good at them anyway).
