Author Topic: Can anyone help?!  (Read 2931 times)

I am working on a campaign and need a new cruiser.  I asked a modder but he is very buisy and told me to try here.

What I need is a Leviathan cruiser that has had stuff added onto it so it is more like a corvet class.  I can Draw a picture of it from all sides.

I also am hoping I could get someone to do a new fighter, the GTF Icarus, and a new reskinned Perseus class fighter, with 2 new gun mounts and 1 new missle rack.  

Can anyone help?!?!

Firstly, welcome to HLP, Shadowcat!  

As for the Leviathan - I'm not 100% sure what you mean, do you mean a new model entirely, or just added weapons? Yes, the pictures would be good.  

As for new fighters, there are lots of new ships, as well as a new reskinned Perseus, in our mod database.

THE HARD LIGHT ARRAY. Always makes you say wow.

 
Well......what I mean by it is like added engines and a fighterbay added on and stuff like that.  I'll try to get a picture up soon, so keep looking

Ok, I did an rough layout of the ship.  Take a look at the website(Its still being developed).  It's under the Screenshots section.  

If you want to possible help, I can send you a bigger version so you can read the turrets.

The up and down lines indicate the kind of grey metal(on Leviathan class) texture.  The right to left lines indicate that kind of brown metal found on the Hecate class destroyer.  And, the diagnal lines indicate the original texture found on the Leviathan.

Well, its carrying something similar to the ETAK, but, it acts like beacon for Shivans.  The Neptune jumps in activates it self and then jumps out and soon Shivans will jump in.  My campaign is about trying to track it down, but, it has many engines (4) so it is hard to disable, but I dont want to say what happens at the end of the campaign  

Can you help model?  UGH...need...moddeler...

this is something I made recently it's looking for a good campain or two, and ironicaly it's called the GTSmC Neptune, it's suposed to be a SSM strike cruser\corvette, but you can change it's loadout to what ever you like. and if you absolutly have to you can change the name as it may conflict with your campain artisticly.

I also must say that is a Very nice concept, so good I may make it if no one else does and I can find the time.

two things that are very unlikely though

All I can say is wow Bobboau.

That's one of the best models I've ever seen. Kudos to you and if you get some time I may try to wrangle a few tips from you

Harg! I'll definitively never agree with that lol, but eh, nevermind  
Ship beacon for shivans? Hehe you played Starcraft, don't you?  
SCREW CANON!

 
I can't get the zip file to work...it says its corrupted or something...ugh

Man, so many people want to model this ship....lol (ugh)  It you can help, yay!(and thanks for just considering it)  As for the neptune, I had no idea that you made a ship called that.  I can change it if you want.

As for the Starcraft thing, hehehe, that never actually came to mind      But, my story is kind of like that...I guess...

Here's the pic (if GeoCities decides to behave, that is...); people generally like to see the object in question in topic.    
     

EDIT: CRAP! That's big!!! Isn't there any way to limit the display size of pics in the forums? HTML, oh HTML, whereforso art thou?

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

I already knew that one even though I don't stick religiously to it

I'm trying to get away with one on the Morrigan fighter but single map texing is a pain in the a$$.

By tips I actually meant "what gives you the ideas for the design of the model" it's very asthetically pleasing

I listen to heavy metal music and play FS and just think of stuff I get the basic layout of the ship (guns, engines)

or I just get a flash of the shape in my mind.
