That's a lot of missiles.  Spoon needs to put this ship in WoD2.
17:37:02   Quanto: I want to have sexual intercourse with every space elf in existence
17:37:11   SpardaSon21: even the males?
17:37:22   Quanto: its not gay if its an elf

[21:51] <@Droid803> I now realize
[21:51] <@Droid803> this will be SLIIIIIGHTLY awkward
[21:51] <@Droid803> as this rich psychic girl will now be tsundere for a loli.
[21:51] <@Droid803> OH WELLL.

See what you're missing in #WoD and #Fsquest?

[07:57:32] <Caiaphas> inspired by HerraTohtori i built a supermaneuverable plane in ksp
[07:57:43] <Caiaphas> i just killed my pilots with a high-g maneuver
[07:58:19] <Caiaphas> apparently people can't take 20 gees for 5 continuous seconds
[08:00:11] <Caiaphas> the plane however performed admirably, and only crashed because it no longer had any guidance systems

Don't forget to fix MP turrets firing points (they're a bit off barrel).
Also, I think that you should start a new thread with all your ships, Esarai (I've just uploaded Ioa to FSMods, so you may want to include that too).
It's like that on purpose, because it fires from the barrels in game from the misaligned firing-points for some reason. Putting the firing point from the barrels made the weapons come from them from below the barrel.

I don't know if it'll be in WoD2, but it's missiles are on it's level of spam.

Exactly.  Why do you think I suggested it for WoD2? :P

Not sure really. There's a huge gap in style and quality for it to fit in. :nervous:

Should be hosted on FSmods under 'frigates' now, if there's anything wrong with the download please let me know.

Re: Esarai's Fleetpack (Emperor Flagship and Phoenix Multirole Frigate)
I've been redoing some of my own stuff as well and it is taking a darned long time. I bake shadows as well but recently, having been reaquainted with a certain awesome normal map generator, I can generate an additional occlusion based off of the normal map details. It pops out the details even more.  :D

which normal map generator are you using. i completed what i consider one of my first successful normal maps fairly easy when i was working on the htl seker. i mainly use ati's normal mapper. i came up with a technique for rapidly generating a high detail model. i use a turbosmooth modifier in max, i also tweak smooth groups to get better boundry isolation, so the ship doesnt end up looking like a blob. i then use displacement with a height map which i created in photoshop based off the texture (my source texture files are layered to make them easy to remix, for shine and env maps, the same technique worked well for height maps). i tweak the map with an airbrush tool to get the correct model topography in max. once im satisfied, i crank up the iterations in turbosmooth, creating roughtly a 3 million poly model and export it in the model format that the normal mapper wants.

i exported the stock model as the low poly. generating the normal map was only looking good for about 30% of the model, so my first attempt was crap. i then isolated the problem areas, by removing them and generating normal maps seprately for each. most of the problems occured where there was overlapped uv mappings. for example the engine nacels were essentially the same model, translated (no change in orientation) and attached to the ship. so by isolating a single nacel and generating the normal map, i was able to get good mapping on both.  once i had all the problem areas cleaned up i composited all the normal maps, keeping the good areas and discarding the problem areas. had a normal map that was 90% awesome. the remaining 10% of the trouble areas were fixed with the clone brush in photoshop. and this is the result (no img tags cause i dont want to hijack the thread).

theres room for improvement but i think it was a pretty good first attempt.

Ahh... Never tried mapping high-poly normals to a low-poly object... I just hand paint my heightmaps and go from there.

Anyways: This accurately sums up What Has To Be Done: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PDoB66M1OL4

And this is what had to be done:

Ooooh, pretty.

And the right most missile looks a little like the rockets in Half-Life 2, which is very cool (If maybe not intentional) :P

Thanks!  And yes, you should thank HL2 for that one.

Ooh Your building more ships :). Saw the pics of the fighter and bomber added to the first post too. Assuming they're going to look like the phoenix or emperor's textures, i reckon they'll look awesome. Looking forward to this!
