That would have made more sense.... I should have said that, damn it why didn't I think

ah...er....yeah, that particular Anaconda is actually flown by the giant lobstoids of Xequerin (G1). The lobstoids themselves can reach heights of er 10 metres, the tallest lobstoid of all reached a whooping 12.3 metres. And um they really like Anacondas. All the er other Anacondas have got much sma...

actually I've just noticed that dish should be textured. i'll check the code again.

I nice looking ship. Good job. I’ve noticed a couple of problems with this OXP however. There is something up with the collision detection as I could pass through the body of the ship without a scratch. Also, and this may just be a coincidence, there was 4 outside the station after I added this exp...

i think it'd be more realistic if the parts were built in Veticite but were shipped out to the other planets. The actual stations would be built in orbit around each planet.... ...or.... instead of building a massive transport ship, they just attached thrusters and a witchspace drive externally to t...

thanks guys. I'm glad you like it. The coding is a little rough in the shipdata.plist but I've been trying to work out those external camera positions. (what would be nice is if we had a camera.position #,#,# and a camera.target #,#,#). Anyway, it sort of looks okay, here's the cargo bay view (it's ...

Okay here it is to download: Ramon_Anaconda CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD http://www.bluelocust.com/inhouse/oolite/oolite-062.jpg And here's a picture of the Asp I'm working on. Based on the speed at which I churn stuff out, I reckon this'll be finished in oooooh another 2 years!! (I'll try and be a little...

Hi think they are planning or thinking about doing a couple more series now. If they could get Rob Grant back on the writing team then I think it'd be good again. Rob Grant and Doug Naylor wrote the first 6 series (which were funny). Then Doug Naylor wrote the last two on his own. Not that Doug Nayl...

Yep, that'll be the over-use of bump. I'll tone it right down.

The' Bump' is now the right way round, there is just waaaay to much of it, think it needs to be toned down a bit - I've stopped using Photoshop for this as GIMP really does handle it much better (!!). Thanks again to Griff for the tutorial: https://bb.oolite.space/viewtopic.php?t=3460&start=285 ...

I've just noticed the normal bump map seems to be inverted.....hmmm where's my big red 'Griff Help!' button gone.

good idea. If you want to DeepSpace I'll pm you the UVMap for this Anaconda. Here's a shadified picture. I've mapped some fake shadows onto it too which is why there seem to be dark bits on the top. When the sub-entities are added it'll all look right.....I hope. http://www.bluelocust.com/inhouse/oo...

getting there (with a lot of Griff's help):

I agree, I'm really liking the look of Deepspace's new textures. They'll make a great replacement pack.

It looks like the tank museum, i was there last year watching the tank show - which was pretty cool. I got very sun burnt though. Yes I know they sell hats in the museum shop, I bought one (just before I went home - it's the sun, doesn't make you think). Annnnyway, I'd love some photos, I'd find the...
