Thanks. I'm not sure if I'll make it a carrier though. I might make it a sort of Battlecruiser.

I am thinking about GTD Pleides.

Because this is such a commonly used thread, can an admin make it a sticky?

Well if you want. I didn't turret it to fight though that's why it only has 2 beam cannons. You'll also have to explain the 4 fighterbays :)

I'm thinking about that. Anyway, I am trying to get a superpowerful weapons to stick on it. Right now it is a destroyer.

Okay, I've been looking on the net for some more stuff. Here's what i got:

A Vasudan Mine

Vasudan Installation; Its actually an Arcadia reskin, but I've come up with a VERY good explanation for why it looks like an Arcadia.

Terran Bomber, Jotun.

Weapons platform, its now the Sol Defensive Battery.

And some other stuff. If anybody can convert models, can you help us? We need to Ticonderoga converted.

Also, does anybody know of a site which will give us FREE webhosting with no upload limit. I know we'll have hlp, and I've already uploaded, but I'm impatient.
:)

EDIT: Also, that thing is a butt kicking machine in the TVWar time period. I wasn't going to put beam cannons on it anyway.

Ah the Ticonderoga, I loved that ship when I saw it a long time ago :D

I'll try to convert it, but I can't gurantee it'll work since it looks high poly.

If you want me to try send it to:

Sure I guess. If it looks good enough, I'll put it in the MOD.

Do you think I should make the Vasudans Shivan? I'll change the engine glows so they still look Vasudan, but they will be hostile by default. It would make it so much easier if they were hostile by default as you will fight them through the whole campaign.

Why would you need to do that?  Just set the enemy fighters to hostile and be done with it.  I couldn't make a mission to save my life, but I know it doesn't take that much work to make a group of ship hostile.

I already did it. It isn't that much, but having the Vasudans hostile kind of fits in with the concept of the Terran Vasudan War. I'm probably going to remove the Shivans, so it would look funny with no hostiles. I might try to get some ships and make a sort of mercenary race that uses the Vasudan stats. They will have some of each races ships, modified a little to make them a little less powerful. You will be both allied, and not allied with them. Or I could make the GTI a whole new race in FRED. Since they are superior to the GTA.

That would be cool:nod: I was hopeing for something like that, it dose say that the Vasudans were at one time intuch with the other old (first ones in this cace) but I don't know how we could fit them in, I mean we could do it like in WingCommander were they were all wiped out bay the 2nd year of the war?:confused:  I think that would work

If you mean the Ancients, the Shivans exterminated them 8000 years before the T-V war.

No, Since the Vasudans are now hostile, or red in FRED (Hey that rhymes:D ) we have none who is Green. I was thinking maybe we could have something along the lines of the NTF, mercenaries. Instead of them using GTA and PVN ships, they will have slightly modified (Only modified tables) versions of the standard GTA and PVN ships.

Or, instead of mercenaries, how about the GTI.

Or, I'll just screw the idea with the mercs and GTI because nobody understands it. I have the Vasudans as hostile, and no Shivans. I might just take out the Great War era ships (Medusa, Hercules, Ulysses, Ursa, and that) and weapons ( I will probably leave the weapons cause they are so cool) because there are no Shivans.

Well that all sounds good but not all the weapons were made yet and they should not have just a bunch of run down verents that gets old fast. If it would help the FS weapons I know would be in use at least at the middile would be:

I have a older laser that is like the ML-16 but with a far longer fire rate
ML-16
Disruptor
RailGun
MX-50
Fury
an old rocket no space bombs yet
Things not and should not be there are:
Banshae
D-whatever you call the other verent of the Disruptor
Fail
Hornet
MagPulse
Interseptor, mabe an older verent one that has a bunch of drawbacks
Promethius
Culster Bomb and nothing like it at all!
Dsiruptor missile
Nukes of any kined
Boolits! no! no! no! this is FS not some WW2Fighter game
Avenger
or any thing like a Beam Cannon!

Heres whay:

1: in FS they are not light or laser focest beams at all they use particals, and or Photons, you get the point

2: not that advanced yet need to have like a Plasma cannon or something, or just have the Tarren Huge Turret take that role

3: the power corse of ships back then would not be able to use them I.E. read the tech info of the Tiphon

4: it's coolr not to have anything like them I mean this would make it a uneake mod, and story.

I am making the turrets have a high velocity. I mean, they are the ships only means of defense. Also, we have a cool weapon to use in the place of beams. These turrets aren't that powerful, so won't break anything in a single shot. We still need some models. Mostly fighters and bombers.

Also, in the beginning of the TVWar, did afterburners exist? How about support ships? Maybe afterburners were new in the Great War. Without afterburners, an Apollo isn't as great. An Anubis is almost evenly matched with an Apollo without afterburners.

Well how about this then in the etch data bace of the game it said the Apollo was first made and used in the T-V war so we could have a ship in it's place for the start of the campigan, and as for all the other FS ship I think we should keep the Madusa but the Hark and the rest should not be in it and we don't whan't too many new ships or this will be too big. I thought we could have a few fighters and or bombers like one or two. and as for capships the Vasudans should get a new old cruiser class, as it never said in the Tech info for both games that they only had one cruiser did it?

I might try to make this thing compatable with the main fs2 campaign also. Make it sort of a "Silent Threat" for Freespace2.
