As I considered his work, it became clear to me that Aesaar hasn't made a fully modernized HTL of the Raynor, but instead created an entirely new class of vessel that is quite obviously descended from the Raynor. This makes changing the name to "Erebus" all the more appropriate.
That's not how it's working. The Erebus is the new Raynor in BP and all references to the name 'Raynor' are going to be removed, as far as I understand it. Basically, BP is using it as the 'htl raynor' and renaming it.
That's actually what I meant, that Blue Planet has discarded the Raynor in favor of the Erebus. When I said "descended", I was speaking from a meta perspective. The Erebus evolved from the Raynor in the sense that Aesaar used it as a guideline when creating his own ship, which Blue Planet is now using instead of the Raynor.
Just clearing up the misunderstanding.
The way i am understanding it these new models are being made for the BP cannon and not as general 3rd party High Poly models. I remember reading post by either Daruis or GB about the Raynor and Titan etc being place holders until new models where made specifically for BP. So i really dont know what the beef is as they have said the new model is Erebus and not the raynor anymore, its a new ship to replace the Raynor, that has taken insperation from the Raynor design by stratcomm, nothing wrong in that.
Exactly what I meant.
BTW starbug, are you perchance a denizen of Spacebattles.com? Your screenname is identical to one of our better writers there.
No, I just delete them from p3d after they've been released to clear up space.
Really?
Then why is
the P3D model Droid803 posted not visible on
your profile? The link works just fine, as of this posting.
Hyperion is next on the list. It's getting a total redesign, much like what the Diomedes got.
*cackling with glee* Has anyone told you how awesome you are? Because I am possessed with an overwhelming urge to remind you of it.
I didn't set out to make a proper HTL Raynor. I set out to redesign the thing, clear away all the bits I didn't like, and make it mine.
And I'd say your efforts were a complete success there.
Please dont name that thing Erebus.
Sorry to say that, but someone else was faster than u guys to pick that name.

And yes, that is a picture with New York City below it to show u its size. And dont think anything in FS2 can or even should rival that monster.
Also, even if u finaly decide to keep the name, think at least about changing it to Erebos instead.
Other than that, pls keep up the good work.
