[Release] ADCK's FFE Ships

Post by ADCK »

Decided that instead of updating some of my older smaller OXP's one at a time, I'd combine some of the similarly themed ships into an all-in-one package.
So, introducing the combination of ADCK's Eagles, ADCK's Imperial Trader, and ADCK's Wyvern Explorer: ADCK's FFE Ships.

Which also introduces my previously unreleased Imperial Courier.

Imperial Trader:

Imperial Courier: NEW!
Image

Based on the original ships by David Braben.

*Concept and Idea: ADCK

Adds many new ships to the game, some with many diff colors. And a player version of each.
The Eagle Mark 1, 2 & 3 are from David Brabens Frontier/FFE. the Mark 4 is my own invention inspired by the other eagles. There are 8 different colours to each Eagle, and 4 player version (the color of these can be changed in the shipdata.plist by easily editing the "diffuse_color" line.)

There have been some small updates to the Imperial Trader and Eagles models and textures, removal of obsolete shaders (now uses materials), and some minor tweaks to the stats.

Installation:

Before installation, be sure to delete any previous versions of Adcks Eagles, Imperial Trader, Wyvern Explorer OXP's.
Extract the adcks_ffe_ships.oxp into your Addons directory of Oolite. Just to be sure startup Oolite with the SHIFT-key pressed until you see the spinning CobraMKIII.

The curved struts on the Imp ships sure look classy. 8)
Do they feature rotating engine pods like the FFE originals?

Very cool, ADCK. 8)
Take an idea from one person and twist or modify it in a different way as a return suggestion so another person can see a part of it that can apply to the oxp they are working on.

What's this? I have competition on the Imperial Courier Production Line?

Have you filled in all the necessary paperwork for Seldar Shipyards to release the Intellectual Property of the IC design to your workshops sir? I find no record of this in my database.

You'll be hearing from my lawyers.

If you wish to discuss this in person, you will find me on Tionisla Coriolis 2 (if it hasn't been blown up by Drew).

You can blame the Thargoids for that. Havn't you heard? The Bugs are testing some kind of plasma beam weapon. A nasty thing, it scarred my ship!

At any rate, the Bugs are converging on Lave for some reason. Mebbe they're searching for Raxxla. HA! I don't put it past them, they're frakkin' crazy.

Watch your tails out there, and if you see a Bug kick it's ass...and watch out for white beams!

Long Range Cruiser and Lynx Bulk Carrier are a part of my Bulk Haulers OXP.
At the moment I'm keeping the 2 OXP's separate because of various reasons, but will most likely combine the two at some future date.
Probably when I finish my changes to 1.75 for Bulk Haulers.
Note: The 1.75 version of BH contains many new ships from FFE/FE2 like the Lifter, Puma Clipper, Panther Clipper, IP Shuttle and some variations of other ships previously added.

I don't konw if this addon is maintained and if the author is still around, but I need to say that is great to fly AGAIN on the Eagle Mk1! :)

By the way, I think that in the pack there is a little issue with Eagles shaders. I mean, in deep space they are all colored, but if I browse ships selection under F3 screen, all the eagles are gray. :(

Hello

i just made a short look into that .zip

now my "conversion" XML-> OpenStep seems to be too late -- ok ... i have learned a lot.... ;-)
( Imp-Trader )

but this .oxp should not be used without changes
fx.
the actual oolite-price for the courier ~750000 / in this oxp 400000
trader 1000000 / in this oxp 600000

4/600000 - is much too cheap

( and there are some other things ... )
