I'm sure that many of you have already guessed this but there's no way we'll make the originally planned 2011 release now. We had several issues earlier this year that slowed or stopped development in some areas which have caused the deadline to slip. However, I actually expected to not be as far into things as we are now once the slip occurred, so at least there is that

So we've prepared some stuff for this month, including a new trailer of the 'release 1' portion of the campaign, and 2 model dumps one of some of our current Shivan fighters and one of old models from previous Inferno builds over the last 5 years.

Release 1 Campaign Trailer:

2011 Model dump:
These are provided as development models and so some may still require POF data and none have tables included.

Last final teaser:

Model by FreespaceKing, it's still a wip though.

There will be a R2 campaign trailer once I have what I need to start making it, got plans for that one
Expect more updates in the eyecandy thread as more models get completed.

[X3N0-Life-Form]

Thx, you probably just took a couple items off my TODO list ^^

There's already a high-poly Rakshasa.

[Woomeister]

There's already a high-poly Rakshasa.

Which that isn't so yeah
Luckily the Rakshasa isn't on our 'to do list' since there's no need to thanks to FSU

[JCDNWarrior]

Awesome! The much anticipated model dump of these updated ships. Been waiting for this Will replace a bunch of placeholders now on my end. Hope it's not too much trouble for someone to .pof models if neccesary, I can do all the tabling and stuff myself. Once again thanks, cheers up a dull and bad day quite a lot for me.

[Woomeister]

All the models are POFs, though some are really old and will need resmoothing.
There will be more dumped ships released at a later date, but these ones don't require specific maps or other things I can't give out right now.

[Commander Zane]

****ing glorious. The trailer does nothing to satiate my eagerness to play this.

[JCDNWarrior]

Alright thanks for explaining, Woomeister. I look forward to see those other ships released too, hopefully completing the gaps of ships I've been looking for, particularly Shivan and civilian/economic based structures. Will take a good look at each of these when I get home.

[mr.WHO]

I hope that you still use Holler or something as EA super heavy bomber. Gagana is nice as heavy, but it isn't badass enough for super heavy class.

EDIT:
The dumped Amritaya is pure badass. I know that it's nowhere the quality of HTL Sathanas, but I think that she deserve to be upgraded to High poly level. This thing is like pure Shivan badassery essence.

The SOC Lyre is quite interesting design too.

As for the rest, it's like.... OMG MY EYES BLEED WTF?  , I hardly belive that couple years ago those were a quality models

EDIT2:
There is no link to shivan fighterpack.

BTW in trailer, when we see Vasudan fleet there is a scene from the back of the fleet (where Hashepsut is to the right 0:52)  there is a tall big ship to the left that kinda reminds the Ancient destroyer from A-S War mod - is it the same ship model?

Ah sorry, link added

It's the original lower poly base model, the ASW version was heavily modified from the base model though.

[mr.WHO]

Do you plan to use ASW version? Coz ASW used some models from Inferno pack, so I don't see why this can't done in reverse way to save you some time.

[Woomeister]

Because we'd have to modify it to look like the original, they cut off the entire back end of the ship and added the ancient style engine part which wouldn't fit our Vasudan style.

[Droid803]

...that would be my doing (the reason why its heavily modified at least, I didn't do any of the changes incoroproated into the final model).
But because I thought Ancients... -> TENTACLES! I chopped off the rear (from the modeldump model) and turned the supports into tentacles, and I don't think FSF ever saw the original before upgrading it and adding the ancient-style engine where I relocated the thruster points. (not that it would matter)

For all intents and purposes now, the two are entirely different ships. Though I guess I could ask FSF for the .blend of the upgrade version, which would indeed save time if we wanted a higher poly version in INF.

[Woomeister]

Well it might be possible to use that one as a base and just rebuild the back. Would be nice to upgrade it if they are willing

[FreeSpaceFreak]

I don't think FSF ever saw the original before upgrading it and adding the ancient-style engine where I relocated the thruster points.

I did come across it once, and well, I like our tentacley version better. The engine 'mount' on the original makes little sense to me

See attachment, have fun with it

Thanks, I'll give Rampage a heads up

[Woolie Wool]

How the hell did I not notice this until now! This has made my whole month! It's even got that super-sleek shark nosed Claymore I've been lusting after since 2006.

I will definitely be downloading this after work.

[ssmit132]

It's like an early Christmas gift, thanks a lot for this.

[Woomeister]

Yeah had a few requests for those which is why I put them in
