MY idea for a Terran Knossos
I'm no expert on FS2(cuz I don't have it) but the reason FRED2 is "crapping" out is because you have too many faces,polygons, and/or vertices on you ship. Here's a saying I thought up last nite, "The bigger ya make em' the lesser ya can detail em".
I have big plans, now if only I could see them through.

eh, I got it working    Didn't have to delete any faces or reduce the detail.  FS2 just doesn't like something about Cob2Pof, but it can handle Kazan's converter.

What do you mean by incompatible?   Does it not just need its own table entry yet?  If you got it in the game then what else oculd be left to do?

It's soooooo good, but i hate those plates araund em.  Only inner circles would be cool. And you can add some turrets on it if you know how =)

Ok, for those of us who are interested, I've just sent the ZIP file to HLP to be added to the mods section.  In the mean time, anybody who wants it before then, I can ICQ it to, I guess.

Excellent work. I'd only make one change, make the outermost ring of plates (the smallest ones) rotate in the opposite direction. Right now, they are padlocked to the ring farther in, and move at exactly in the same direction at the same speed. If the outer ring was moving in the opposite direction, the eye wouldn't notice the correlation and it would look more convincing.

I see four rings. The two outer ones rotate clockwise to with respect to the Hades, the centermost ring rotates counterclockwise and the second ring from the center stays in one place. I was suggesting that the outter most of the clockwise rotating rings actually be a seperate rotating subobject, going in the opposite direction of the next ring in.
