Author Topic: Starships, Revisited  (Read 4450 times)

I've noticed that there is a serious lacking in SERIOUS star ships, you know? As so, when I found a topic asking for one, I just had to. I jumped on it, and have been working on these two models for a month now in order to bring the best quality that I can into these ships. Now, their not the BEST of quality, but I've spent a lot of time coming up with ideas for these. So, Welknair, my main advisor, has come to the suggestion that I put up a topic here. So, I did. Three hours later, after much stuff going down. Namely laze. Suggestions? Critisizations?

I swear, if you say their gonna be huge I will slap you. Will post pics in a moment. And yes.. ~:Sigh.:~ I know the Warship looks like a rifle or something.

Also, I kinda need someone to work on the scripts, or help with me with them. I dunno how to make the individual turrets work and move and such. That, and I need someone that I can trust to export the .blend files into a .dts format for me.

Hopeful extras:
Emitters for the engines

Cool effects for the turrets

Landing animations

Hydra Cannons for the Assault Carrier's main weapon

(Suggestions are open)

Decided to give a useless bump as well as post pics.

First pic looks like some kind of snipper riffle.

The first one is quite decent, and the other one looks bad.

Also, I don't think we need this. If you want a huge ship, build it.

Personally, I dislike people who constantly say to just build it.

Yes, we CAN build it, and its not gonna be freaking HUGE. Nothing more then the pelican, maybe a bit bigger. Its still in its beta stages, and things are prone to change. On the same note, while we can build one out of bricks, it isn't going to be able to move very well, is it?

I rest my case.

Also, what part of the second needs to be changed up?

I like the Starship, but the Transport is ugly, imo.

The back's just a little too "loving huge"

Chances are thats because its hollow in the back. Its meant to carry troops and equipment and etc.

Do want that ship tested Ingame :D

I'd loving love too, but I still need exporters and scripting help. I've got the basic script done, however.

Making those guns are gonna be hard....scripting wise...


The turrets are seperate models, that's all the help I can give right now about turrets

And what's wrong with your exporter?

For some reason, it simply won't let me export. Also, thanks for the help in the turret thing.. I guess? Lol.
hi zombie clown
Hi. :P

I could probably look at the tank script to figure out more, but until the model is working that doesn't really matter.

Have you tried reinstalling, with the most current version of Blender, Python, and the exporter?
And are you setting it up correctly, with the empties and such?
