Whoever did that texture on the MVPs Tauret has epic skillz.

[eliex]

Ugh. Retail models and/or textures always make me vomit in terror. But then again, they always succeed in elevating the appreciation towards the work done by the SCP and the FSU through the roof.

I can see why you guys like the Tauret.

I, however, like the new Loki.

[dragonsniper]

They're all a lot better than they were before. Whoever did them did a great job.

[Droid803]

The New Loki is HTL. Its obviously awesome.
The Tauret isn't but looks just as good, which is the whole point.

But yes, they all look great. The Cain has the least difference though, good thing there's a new HTL one in the works after the old HTL one died four years ago.

I love it how the Terran fighters and bombers have transparent cockpits.

[Commander Zane]

Yes, but so could the rest.
All that's left is the Myrmidon, Boanerges, and Artemis / D.H., though the Ares could use a little canopy touch-up.

[eliex]

I believe that the Myrmidon has been HTL'ed but it didn't make much of a difference.

though taken entirely out of context. Its a small ship, and it kicks ass (Terran Lilith, if you will). It has a blazing top speed of 8 ms^-1, and I chopped off half of the turrets, leaving only the AAAfs for defense (and the missile launcher, for launching missiles)

The Mjolnir is only attacked via a dockpoint. I wish I knew how to kitbash well enough to actually fuse the models.

EDIT: Crap. forgot to turn on normal maps.

[Goober5000]

Ooh, I like that.

[eliex]

Same here. 

[Commander Zane]

I believe that the Myrmidon has been HTL'ed but it didn't make much of a difference.

He was talking about canopies...not HTL models...
I said exactly which ships still need those transparent canopies...not which ones need to be made into HTL...

[Snail]

I, for one, think that transparent cockpits are kind of unrealistic.

If it was possible, it'd be cool to have it transparent when up-close, but from far away they'd be opaque. Could probably be done with detail boxes and LODs I guess...

[Aardwolf]

Reminds me of the gorgon cannon in Derelict. The one that exploded after its first use.

[GenericCorvette]

It exploded after a final desperate shot to destroy an incoming Ravana.

No GTCv Bellerophon?
But I spy a strangle little cruiser there

[Snail]

No GTCv Bellerophon?

We already have the Deimos, the Chimera and (our own) Barbados. Adding the Bellerophon would be 4 corvettes, which, IMO, is too many.

lol...never thought I'd see the Ragnarok in FreeSpace.
