That's actually pretty cool and would make a neat Gef combatant.

lvlshot, damnit Ninja'd

Looks cool otherwise.

But why is it in the BP board ? You should have put it in Modding.

As follow up to the Gef discussion about light cruisers or modified freight vessels. A quick example, put in this topic as it's a screenshot.

That's a good way to recycle unneeded hulls, make them into something else.

It would really be a nice addition to the Gef arsenal. Maybe a bit overgunned for a juri-rigged civilian ship though. I'd either leave it's armor as poor as the Poseidons or reduce the number of guns.
Maybe remove the guns on the engine block and move those on the "wings" dawn a bit, so they can fire up and down (they already got good front/back coverage). If they get on the tops of the wings, they should have around 200° up/down coverage judged by eye.

Yea I've even been thinking of reducing the turrets to 1 top, 1 bottom, 1 left, 1 right and giving it a missile turret or cannon on front to strike with. Such a light cruiser probably would have strike capabilities to make it count.

[Kolgena]

I think it'd make a fine GEF ship. If you're going to up-armor it, please make it much, much slower. No sense in that thing outrunning Hercs like its freighter progenitor.

It is more a proof of concept right now, not yet a project or anything. It's very easily doable for anyone with some modding skills as it's an edited Poseidon model from the mediavps. However, if making such a ship I'd imagine a speed of 40-45, given it's slightly larger than an Ursa (but has far more mass) and it probably has a horrid turn rate.

[Snail]

What about a HTL version using BrotherByron's wip?

[-Sara-]

Thought of it but right now no intentions yet of making a project of this. Too busy making other FS2 stuff.

[Rodo]

You are actually quite good with character rendering right?, what are you working on Sara, if you are able to tell.

[-Sara-]

Finished a Noemi Laporte not so long ago, am now working on a brand new Lorna Simms.

[Rodo]

oh nice

Some random screenshots of my rendition of the First Battle of Neptune. The mission is inspired partially by the video on YouTube and partially by my own imagination.

Not sure why these are rather grainy looking...

That shot with the Bellerophon is gorgeous.

[Androgeos Exeunt]

Not sure why these are rather grainy looking...

The screenshots were saved into JPEG format which, by default, compresses the file and creates grains, or "artefacts", on the image. You will need to re-save the original screenshots either as maximum quality JPEG images or use a lossless image format such as PNG or BMP.

Also, consider using the neptune-htsb.pof skybox instead of background nebulae.

[CFInsane]

rather new here, well not really, just never post at all but this campaign is quite amazing.
i really like the design of the karuna so heres 2 random shots

[General Battuta]

Damn those are some nice shots.

[Pred the Penguin]

Is it just me or do the textures on the first screen seem kinda flat?

[MatthTheGeek]

Well, by definition, textures ARE flat...
