Mr. Standoff
Now THIS is a good-looking cruiser :D
Weights in at about 1600 polygons... Which is actually less than I thought I'd need for all those round areas.

So what do you think, people?

BTW there's a big news update on my site so you guys should go there to check it out... I'm not gonna write it all again here, plus, you guys know the URL :-P

Eder- I think the Raptor and Ferret look amazing. And much better than they did in the games ;). Keep going with this, I'm sure all WC fans will love the mod.

WOW!

hey, can I use that pic for my Prophecy roleplaying game? I still need a carrier next to the Midway.

That is, if that carrier doesn't already exist...

If so, I challenge you all, Yes, ALL OF YOU, to design a UNIQUE carrier (w/pic, if possible) I can use!

TIA,

Zim


TADAAAH! Another succes for the ZIM!

A) That is not a carrier, it is a cruiser. (Though it carries 40 fighters, IIRC)

B) It exists, it's a Waterloo class Cruiser from WC2.

Also, why do you need a new carrier... just use an existing class. Or, look at what's around and derive some new statistics that seem balanced.

I imagine it would also require a huge amount of effort and imagination to design a new class.
 
Yeah, Zim, like TC said, that's a Waterloo-class cruiser, it's about 500 meters long and carries 40 fighters... So it's kind of far from being a carrier.

And BTW, I'm glad you guys liked my work :cool:

I've got a number designs at my WC Web site (URL in my sig). Check out the Science Labs section for brief narratives and an image for each; I also have full specs for each vessel listed that I could provide if you're interested.
 
I have always thought the TCS Warterloo was a carrier... but if TC says that it is a cruiser, it must be a cruiser... (damn' I hate this class of vessel, it reminds me a defeat :) )

Well... stat-wise, that's fairly similar to a Ranger CL...:)

(But to confirm some of the doubts -- it is, indeed, a cruiser!)
 
Thanks everyone :)

Things are really coming out nicely for my mod, except for the cutscenes which I have no idea what I'm going to about. I can't make drawings or models of human forms... well actually, I can, but they look just so... deformed :p

--Eder
 
Yeah, I actually like that kind of thing, and I'll probably include it in some missions... but I was talking about the "not-in-flight" cutscenes... I want to include something like the WC1 style... you know, talking heads, briefings with a commander instead of just a map table, and the like.

I really prefer the idea of cartoon cutscenes than 3d rendered ones (mostly because unless you're really good at 3d rendering, any attempts at animation will look pathetic) but the only cartoonist I know that would do this for me is buried in more important work nowadays :(
