You should have a go at adding a few more sub-entities to the models too. Like a scanner dish and things like that (maybe not with the Thargoids though?)

BBC for me too (I think it might have been the BBC Master though).

ArcElite was my fave though until Oolite came out......if I ever get time I might do an ArcElite.oxp (same colours, cockpit)

You can edit the shipyard.plist in any text editor (I use Crimson Editor - it's a free one). here's a typical shipyard.plist: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyLis...

weeviloid2-PC.oxp

I vote for scaling down the pods INSIDE the Anna only.
any ejected pods should be normal in-play size.
I tend to agree with this line of thought.

The easiest solution is scaling down the cargo pods. In actual fact, if you look at my previous post I've put a scale bloke in the shot (2m high) and the Oolite sized Anaconda looks about right, it could be that crafts like the cobra 3 are too big and it's not that the Anaconda is too small. (Assumi...

The Anaconda in the background is the ArcElite version. This is probably a better size for it isn't it?

Oooooooookay then. Not going to fit 100 tons in this Anaconda. 2 options here then, 1. make the Anaconda bigger (which'll probably mean making the stations bigger) or 2. Make the cargo smaller (which is bad because it'll make them incredibly hard to spot when scooping) or the third option (or er my ...

VERTEX 4.80024, 3.20016, 0 -4.80024, 3.20016, 0 It's these two lines to look at. 4.8 is the front and -4.8 is the back so if 0 is the middle then add those two numbers together and you get the length. Same goes for the other lines to work out the rest. Cheers Arexack_Heretic, I don't know why I didn...

Selezen, I don't know how you work so quickly! I'm STILL working on the Anaconda. Progress is slow as usual but here's a quick work in progress. http://www.bluelocust.com/inhouse/ana_wip02.jpg I was thinking when this is done it would be easy to change the colour as well as add on other peoples' log...

Yeah, I thought I'd try and do about 10 different variations. In fact we could do a "your company logo oxp" like the 'Your Ad Here' one couldn't we.

I agree with dajt. If there was a better trading part to Oolite then there would be more reason to buy some of the bigger ships like the Anaconda or Boa.

Also, and I know I keep harping on about this, but I really want to be able to land on the planets!

is there water in space? Nope, the water is in the spacestations :) It’s the old rolled-out-tin-cans criticism again, although this one’s reasonably subtle about it. What’d really be nice would be the rolled-out-tin-cans thing in a specularity map rather than the diffuse map (Star Trek did this, on...
