It's just that there are already Vasudan everything-elses, but the only juggernaut is a bunch of other ships stuck together.

Cargo containers. There are hardly any.

 
Re: What kind of ships are in demand right now?
Well, looks like I have plenty of ideas to choose from. Right now I'm working on a Shivan Fighter/Bomber (how it's used will be up to whoever wants it really, since I don't have FS on this computer, so I cant do Tables or anything like that.)

I dont really plan on doing anything huge, for one because I'm kind of against the idea of anyone but the Shivans having Juggs, and looking at the Wiki they have PLENTY (There was also a Vasudan Juggernaut on there, but it was an old Inferno model,) and because I dont trust myself with something that large yet.

I'll also take a crack at a few utility vessels and cargo containers for the various races of they're needed.

Disclaimer though - anything I do make in the next month is basically going to be thrown to the public as a model and thats it. I'm sorry, I love you guys and all,  but I dont want to re-buy FS from GOG, plus I don't think Somerville hospital would take kindly to me engaging in Multi-Gig downloads.

You don't rebuy it, you pay for it once and hello unlimited downloads.

Shivan Corvettes.
There are none, except the Scylla, and that's low-poly, and in like every other mod.

There's the SCv Bryn from the early glory days of HLP.  It's low-poly but I don't think people have used it since its release.  In fact, I can't find a download link anywhere.

Anyhow, I have a copy, and if you guys want it, I can post it here.

I'd like to see it.
Also, on topic of ships, you could think about making any kind of container transport (and a corresponding container).
There are only a few of these out there and none (IIRC) Shivan or Vasudan.

Re: What kind of ships are in demand right now?
There appears to be also a lack of larger transports, even half the size of the Argo would be good.  The Azrael and Isis are the size of support ships.  Now, for the Vasudans, the Satis, although it is actually a freighter, easily doubles as a transport, though FS2+ era would be useful.  There are ones with Inferno R1, but they could use detail upgrades (hint to the Inferno team).  Shivans on the other hand, only have the Azrael and nothing else.  I think someone made an enlarged Azrael at one point, though it seems to have vanished.

There is the ST Xerxes, which is pretty nice.


But as far as I know no one has made any other new Shivan transports or any new Shivan freighters. So it would be nice to have some of those. Of course, I'm with the people who'd like a new Shivan corvette.

IIRC Axem's Lamia was corvette sized.
EDIT:



Apparently it's about 375 m :-(

  • What?
Re: What kind of ships are in demand right now?
Sath is being done by myself. I'm about one third the way through texturing it. Bobbmant was making one too, but I do not know its status.
I think I'll call REAL Mahjong 'Chinese Dominoes', just to make people think I'm an ignorant asshat.

A few more ships of that style would be nice.

Sadly the Cretheus and this are showing their age a bit. When Axem first made them they were beautiful.

They're still beautiful, and Lamia is currently the best released Shivan cruiser. Cretheus is awesome too.

I dunno I kind of think the Cain and Lilith look better than the Lamia.

By released he means non-canon/fanmade.
This thread is about non-canon/fanmade.

Re: What kind of ships are in demand right now?
Lamia had such awful mapping and texturing. :( It could look better if someone redressed it up a bit.

The Cretheus I think just needs a good normal map, maybe some resmoothing.
