Been a while since I updated this. I've finally managed to finish off a new hull design for the Asp. I'm happy with this one, and even happy with the texture.
It's dark.

Just finished packaging the Asp OXP and defining the ships. There are three variants: an active Navy version, a 'Shadow' variant (the so-called Vector one) and a navy surplus one for the player and pirates to fly.
In total, that means that the following ships are available in Dream team versions:
Adder (in standard and wingfolded versions)
Asp (Naval, Surplus and Shadow)
Fer-de-Lance
Krait
Moray (in Starboat and Medical Boat versions)
Moray-R (reversed hull Moray, in standard and Medical schemes)
Python
Sidewinder
Viper (standard, Interceptor and Escort variants)
The OXPs for each of the above are ready to run, but might need tweaking with viewpoint locations and laser origins.
Currently working on Cobra Mk I and Thargoid (the latter of which is low-priority).
Re: the Thargoid thing.
With the development of V1.68, is it possible now to have a ship with an internal 'glow'? That might work for the Thargoids, with pseudo-random flickers of lights eminating from within (possibly tying the flickers with the ship's speed?)

Define “internal”.
As in 'appears to be beneath the skin' internal......
So not technically very different from an external glow?
Not really knowing what the original writer meant, but I think "internal glow" would really require support for transparent textures - you could make the texture slightly transparent (or some parts more transparent than others) and then place a light source inside the model and, voila, internal glow is here!

Author of Marcan Rayger adventures - unofficial fan-fic novellas set in the Frontier universe.
It's coming...I'm looking at tweaking the performance as we speak, then I need to recalibrate the viewpoints then I need to check the laser emissions.
Once done, I'll slap a valid MOT on it, tax it and off we go!
...not that I'm suffering from Courier withdrawal. 'S jus' that I like the original oak panelling in the cockpit and the walnut burr dashboard. And the fully stocked liquor cabinet beside the real leather Comfi-Sorb body conforming Commander's chair with optional built-in back and shoulder shiatsu massager nodules...............
FINISH THE COURIER, MAN! I'm Jonesin' fer it!
