I used the same texture combo as with the python and raptor so could be the smoothing groups messing up the lighting on the hull. I'll sort that up and see if works.

Sounds like it could be the culprit, there is a definate colour difference between what taken from the tiger to form the front section and what was adapted from the python to form the rear, other than that its a really nice bit of design.

hiya all darkstar one here

long time no see

ive noticed something about the gungnir OWP the bottom turret (if i remember right

) camera is inside the OWP itself this makes aiming with that turret rather hard

love this mod and im also liking the valhalla remake, the vanilla model was far too big and ugly

cadius

as you have made the split more split lol
could u do something about those weak, cheap xenon ships stats, please fix the xenon Qs 2 non working turrets, the Ks and the Js cargo bay is too small for max loadouts, are cheaper than the Q (should be other way round lol).

The fighters N,M,L need poweplant boosts LX should have bigger weapons choice (currently can mount less types than L and maybe 200MJ shield) than other xenon fighters and the PX is same price as normal P although much stronger

those xenon are supposed to be the biggest threat to all life i laugh at them in my M3 in thier current state

these upgrades would give your ships some worthy opponents

Anyway your mod your rules

many thanks darkstar one

I wonder: what about the ships of "Tachyon - The Fringe"?
Some of them (both fighters and capital ships) are truly nice; the ship of "Galspan" are rather Paranid, while the ships of "Bora" are rather Pirate...

Hi Cadius,

are you going to implement ships like this one:

I would really like a mobile base with me, where I can dock my M7.

Or are there other ships that can already do that?

Thanks again for this mod!

I think it's a bad ida to include the other ship that is still in beta phase. I'd like to see it too, but not before it hit v1.0

Sorry guys, I was wrong: no new ship in "CEO's Spirit".

But they are still available as NPC, since some of them fly here and there.
I wonder: the new ships should be available in any proper shipyard (that is: Split ships in Split shipyards) or they are available in just one shipyard for each race?

Thanks!

Hehehehehehehehehehehehe...

Yesterday I've used the "X3TC Cheat Package" (http://forum.egosoft.com/viewtopic.php?t=216691) to create one of the ships that I cannot find (it was the "Sendai B", if I remember well): voilà, the ship! Not too close to my own, not too far!
I've noticed that the "X3TC Cheat Package" allows me to add ships to any selected the shipyard, so I can add... Let's say... the "Aomori" to any Terran shipyard and then buy this ship if I have enough credits.
That is: a cheat but not truly a cheat.
Now I wonder: maybe the script that adds the new ships to their shipyards, Cadius, is somewhat bugged?
If you, or someone else, tell me the name of that script I can try to activate it (if it is possible) and see what's happen.

Qaplà!

Could be this neat lil thingy that gets added somewhere in the game folders, I've seen it before and all I remember about it is its was either called or contained the word Modified.

Maybe your game is set to Vanilla mode still

@Cadius: Hey was just doing some pondering, if that USC Freya M7+ design I proposed goes over well, would be possible to add an Argon equivalent?

ilricca · Post by **ilricca** » Fri, 17. Dec 10, 10:09

English is not my native language, Chobit-389, sorry...
Can you explain me better what do you mean with "neat lil thingy that gets added somewhere"?

Besides: I don't think that my game is set in the "vanilla mode": the "vanilla mode" is avaialble only with SPK files, if I remember well, and this mod is just copy & paste...

Cadius · Post by **Cadius** » Sat, 18. Dec 10, 10:52

@ilricca: Yes you may be right, the script is called "Cadius ship pack" and can be found in your director folder. It could be bugged or it might've misfired, I've made the script to only fire once 5 seconds into the game, and it will not fire again afterwards, unless theres another update. I'll see about setting it to fire once everytime you load the game instead in the next patch.

Speaking of which, next due 25/12/10. There'll be plenty of new toys to play around with.

@Chobit: possible, but Teladi first. Since I'm still in the mood for them at the moment.

@SimB: mr.WHO is right, I'll wait for urbanfreak to finish his work first.

@ Cad: Sweet deal, I like what I've seen with the profit lizards so far. Raven is pretty damn good cept for that framerate bug with the FAA (Lulz, Flak Artillery Array, not Federal Aviation Administration... wonder if the Argon have one of those though...)

Bug could just be my comp though, if anyone is willing to test this try firing the Flak Artillery from a turret on the Raven manually. If others have the problem then it my be a glitch with the custom turrets.

@Cadius: Yeah!

Thanks!!!

SimB · Post by **SimB** » Sat, 18. Dec 10, 17:57

So there is currently no ship in the game that can dock a M7?

Chobittsu · Post by **Chobittsu** » Sat, 18. Dec 10, 18:27

Hakata (USC) and Aran (Goner?)
