Space fighters with HCS

[the_stitch]

I'm planning on making an elite-like server, and i want to have open space. only problem is that i don't have any ships to give players. If anyone could model a few space ships (I might even make you some of my own if it gets far enough) and help me get it ingame, that'd be awesome.
All it needs to be is Magic carpet physics, HCS and spaceship model. Seats can vary, but it must have guns.

For those that don't know, Elite was a completely open world game where you can take your space ship wherever you want, and dogfight/trade around the galaxy. you can jump between solar systems and dock at space stations. It started out as an old computer game with wireframe graphics, but now is being remade into Elite: Dangerous, which will be one of the biggest online multiplayer space games to date.

Nobody? Guess I'll be adding it to my to-do list...

The better a mod would be, the more apathetic modellers are.  I'd model for you if I had the faintest idea how.

that space ship looks like a wedge with engines on the back of it
I'm sortof unsure of this but even when I suck at modeling I might be able to.
but no scripting because you know

can't be that hard. I barely knew anything about playertypes, but i jumped in with both feet. You'll figure something out. After all, its just

a wedge with engines on the back of it

I cannot model at all.  "A wedge with engines on the back of it" exceeds the scope of my modelling abilities.

Just to put something into perspective, here's the rough scope of my abilities in blender.


An image showing the first seven shapes under the first submenu of "Add".  The shapes are not aligned in any meaningful way.


I used to be able to add materials to shapes, but I've forgotten how to do that.  Whether I can export to .dts successfully is basically a 50/50 chance.

I know something about Blockland modification way better than Xalos. Cheers!
