300th post!!

Ok, here is the Enigma. It is a very advanced Light Interceptor. Here are the stats:

Name: NE-17-S "Enigma"
Class: Light Interceptor
Faction: Kusari Elite "Nazo"
Armor: 2400
Guns: 3
Missiles: 1
Turrets: 0
Mines: 1
Optimal Class: 7
Max Class: 9
Nanobots: 50
Cargo: 25
Will probably be fairly expensive...Will be very expensive if we do custom equipment with it...

Here is the first picture...Texture may change, I'm just trying to stay in the orange-red look that Kusari ships have...

will you hold on to your system ?

oooh one last question
what is diffrent between a rantak or cranik , not only the price

Post Sun Jan 11, 2004 7:07 am

we may not include systems in 2.4...too many bugs...we may just add the ships and put the systems back in in version 2.5...isnt cranik a star?

I'd like to help you with the beta test, but I'm not sure where the new areas are in the mod. Where should I go? Where are the crudest new areas? And an idea, how about taking out shield batteries and nano's all together? An option would be great.

Saber, I'm not sure if you are Chips himself or just a fan, but don't advertise other mods in our forum...We don't do it to them, and don't do it to us

I think my only comment/critique would be some of the models almost looked soaked in their textures. It reminds me of a plastic plant pot painted bright red. Not to say the textures suck, which they don't, but I can't tell when one section of the ship ends and another begins, as each section stretches its cover over onto the other side.

For example, the Enigma has a standard gird pattern for its texture. This works in some parts of the ship, but especially on the wings it really looks off-key. If the textures were manipulated to construct the model, rather than covering it like pulling a blanket over a bed, then it would make for a better model in the final version. There are several places in the models where the skin has been stretched or shrunk or even neglected, affecting its quality.

Understandably this is still work in progress, but I thought I'd still bring it up as simple critisim. Refine the textures so the new ships go from good to great.

Yarr...

Pixie: Don't worry about the textures, they will be refined, that is one of the reasons the ships you've been seeing won't be used until a later version of the mod is released, one of the versions later than 2.4

The next version of the mod is ready and is about to be sent to TLR...keep an eye on the downloads section

The Icarus, very simple, quick and easy...

Stats:

Name: Icarus
Class: Medium Fighter
Armor: 4200
Guns: 5
Missiles: 1
Turrets: 0
Mines: 1
Optimal Class: 5
Max Class: 7
Nanobots: 32
Cargo: 30
Light and Fast for a MF, vulnerable from behind but with a good pilot is a very useful ship.

Hi guys I tried your new Epsilon Ships Mod version 2.5 and found a problem, Nightstalker weapons do not work, So I unmounted them and remounted and the game CTD's when I try to fire them. So I sold all guns and threw a set of other guns on and it works fine now. I was not running any other mods with this one so that can't be the problem. By the way I really like the new ships you guys have in this mod, keep up the good work
