Preview of 1st Deadly Ship Mod for X3 (in-game sceeen shots)
OK...I have spent most of my time lately trying to tweak the various X3 functional capabilities (docking, rotating turrets, etc), and neglecting my ship mod.
I do not think it makes sense to simply port all 33 ships from X2 to X3, as some of them were very early models and left a lot to be desired
However, there are some useful ships that I have included on this 1st pass.
A quick comment before I get to the pix...
I will probably be bringing over a few more ships, although I'll likley be concentrating most of my efforts on new ships.
Some of the ships you see below still sport their X2 textures, and look a bit "washed out". Trust me, I'm working on getting all ships onto the X3 graphic standard
OK...here is what I have in-game so far:
The venerable Y-Wing (still X2 texture)...

The Monsoon Gunboat (X3 texture)...

The Grendel (aka Protector) (still X2 texture)...

As you can see, I've still got a bit of work to do getting the textures finished.
I am also working on a custom player HQ based on an asteroid...with docking for all classes of ships. Hopefully I'll have it finished by the time I'm ready to release the ships.

The gunboat is my favorit. Maybe it could be added as...goner corvette...as I don't want to throw out any other corvette model .

The Archeron and Charon are pretty easy, and the new X3 textures will dress them up really nice. I'll see about including them in the initial release.Please also port the Archeron and the Charon, together with the ISD they are the hottest ships I've seen in a while.
I am still working on a custom docking solution for the ISD (required because of the large docking bay on the underside of the ship). I'll also be using a full 48-laser loadout on the ISD (8 per turret). If I get the custom docking solution working in time, I'll include it in the release as well.
Once I get the initial release posted, and squash the inevitable bugs, I'll bring over most of the other X2 ships in an update.
As for new ships...I have several project started, with the most active one (after getting the initial mod release out) being a full set of X3 ship classes (9 ships) from the Babylon 5 series. I'm not particularly knowledgeable regarding B5, but have been getting advice from IKCBlade.
Finally, I also have a few more Star Wars ships started, which I really need to finish.
Sigh...so many ideas, so little time
I know what you mean..Sigh...so many ideas, so little time
Excellent work!!
