New ships

  • Just had a good idea for a couple more ships, and an area for ideas for more ships


    The first was the colonial fighter from galactica that is out there that can be recoloured painted black or dark metal colour and called black viper? or some other cool name that could be thought of, modify the statistics of the ship a bit make it more acceptable but its gotta be a good and expensive ship, coz lets face it, Battlestar Galactica rocks lol.


    and the other idea i had was, from a playstation game called Colony Wars, the ships from there are quite unique and cool and with a bit of fiddling around could make a good edition to the Crossfire collection. and also a look at the fleetships in colony wars merit a look aswell they are cool.


    so some ideas there if anyone is willing to take them on.

  • maybe you want to make the models?

  • think there might be a copyright problem with the ships fromColony Wars and i dont think Op wants sci-fi ships in his mod (i could be wrong be i think i read that somewhere)


    however sieto you might want to take them ships and mod them enoth to avoid that prob.

  • the chance that these "ideas" come into crossfire is very small. The information is just too small. It would be too much work to create this ships.

  • Ok, I said I wouldn't post in threads like these anymore but this is just too much to ignore. This is CF... this mod is built on a Lancer franchise of ships with very few exceptions (the Ragnarok gunboat, for example). Perhaps I am wrong, but this is not going to be a mod polluted with Star Wars, Star Trek, Babylon V, Battlestar, or any other kind of ship from an outside franchise. OP has done a very good job keeping true to the plot of the Lancer games and to wander from that would do a lot to spoil it. If you have a ship design that is unique that you have made, show it to us or give specific details, but if you bring something from another game, show, or movie to us we're probably going to flatly reject it.

  • well there is one SW ship in CF... and there are ships from other games and tv shows in the mod aswell


    ... im willing to add those if they fit into the whole concept of CF

  • i will do some internet research, gather some data on it as for modelling i'm not able to do it but will have a look at that aswell maybe i could take it up.


    as for negative posts i understand that you don't want loads of stuff ruining it for you, coz maybe its crap to you but unless you know what ships and style i am talking about please don't judge the idea.


    as for the copyright there shouldnt be a problem coz of the fact that star wars ships have been used and stuff from other places aswell that would fall under copyright so.


    OP when i've gathered enough data i will post it on forum.

  • What about adding ships from Atlantis serie? i think the deadalus could be a good battle ship, or the Cylons's ships from Galactica? even de the vipers as light fighters


    See animes! is the best!!

    The Daedalus is really a kick ass BS. But i think all Atlantis floating in space would be just an eyecandy ^^ or at least a Puddle Jumper or F-302 :D

    Assumption is the mother of all fuckups.


    Being a Cynic isn't that bad. Either I'm right or I am pleasantly surprised.

  • Now hold it right there everyone. Do not we already have enough ships (and even some of them are bugged...)? Besides, what would be the point of it? Half of the people on the server are flying with shrouds, when there are 100 costum ships, don't giving a sh't at them. They would just add more space to the installer, but no one would use them...


  • Yep there is not much point adding ships that are not competitive with the Shroud.


    If the agility, hull stength and wep slots are inferior to the existing elite ships then they wont get used by most people.


    Its true that it does add a small bit of fun to swap ships around. However, as soon as ppl start loosing in pvp to the shrouds and saracens they will quickly change to them.


    So OP I would not waste your time unless u are going to make any new ships truly competitive.

  • There is some ships better then shroud atm, only need to try them.


    most of ppl buy shroud cause it is used by the most of the aces, but there's better then that in my opinion.


    But is true, we could live with maybe less 20 or 30 VHF.


    maybe would be more entusiastic to have more class 10 guns (with difrente configurations).
    so we could use difrete sets of weapons. (or at least try them)

  • What about 'fixing' the ships that already exist?


    I was proud of my Predator as it had a Coalition Turret fitted to it until I found the turret fired backwards, same for Naginta and Eagle.


    No doubt this is NOT a bug and some ships were designed that way, but if this were fixed it would encourage people to use them. The Predator, for example, has a turret and this is balanced by its lower armour strength, but the Turret wont fire forwards!!


    It may not be possible as I heave read many times OP say that playing about with ships is quite difficult.

  • all i'm saying is i had an idea for some ships and fleet ships that people can buy and fly that might be good for the server and its rp i don't know its just an idea, i'm gathering data for OP, and if he says no then that's a no, at least i gave it a try. all it is at the moment is an idea nothing to get worked up about it might not even go through just yet.


    i havent even gathered enuf data to present to OP so be patient the idea might not work

  • OP i have now found a website for you to look at just some of the Colony Wars vessels.


    here is the link
    http://www.colonywars-redsun.com/gs_index.html


    it should bring you to the Colony Wars Red Sun website, you can look at the other two for some more idea but...


    click on the main picture
    you'll get a choice between three installments of the colony wars story. go thru all of them and basically look at all the visuals and stuff and see what you think.


    as i've said, you might not like it, its just an idea. all i'm doing is trying to contribute to the server, just try and give back something so.


    see what you think.
