*Shudder* It'd need to have the armor of a cruiser, maybe a Rakshasa, very slow speed and no anti-fighter defence to be even close to balanced...and yet it would still be a terror

Reminds me of a Shydow offa Space.

I think it'd be good as some MASSIVE (juggernaught dwarfing) sized uber-ship (non-shivan-terran-or-vasudan). Like a planet killer or something. But if you insist on making it a fighter, make it quite big (on a fighter scale)

No, that's genuine. She looks good with the angry red. I'd like to see custom maps on her, but that's outside of my league as yet. Either way, she looks excellent.

cut and paste is about as good as my custom maping skills go, but with Shivan ships its not so noticeable.

untouchable: sorry for the low res, but i was taking into account the fact that there are 56kers here, and i dont want to be rendering this thing for an hour or so for previews.

For those of your wondering: this ship has parts from the Nephilim, Mara, Astaroth, and Taurvi.

I've got this terrible urge to put her into I-war2 so I can play about with animation channels in flight. :D Wouldn't you just love to see it kind surge and  tighten down as you apply the forward thrust override, or flex as it cuts through a tight turn? :D

I'd heard Iwar2 ships were complex but do they really do that? :eek:

Do they? Most don't, no.

Can they? Um. Really terribly easily. :D The upgraded version of the Molly that I'm working on is using animation channels for all the directional thrusters and for moving the engine spines in response to forward and aft thrust. You can tie effects to thrust channels, the weapons fire channel, a couple of glow channels and, most importantly, to custom script channels. Very very groovy stuff.

Narol: Anti-Alias the renders. Or do a two pass openGL render or something but don't blur them.

Phreak is doing some work on this, as am I. Mostly, lately, we've been discussing how to mangle the Freespace2 game system into Iwar2's system without giving up too much functionality.
