Oolite Bulletins

Wow, didn't meant to leave it so long between uploads, can't believe its been a year since the Adder

I've added a Moray to the shared folder on my google drive (link page 1 of this thread)
I'm having problems uploading screenshots for some reason, page just keeps timing out, suspect it's my internet, will try and add one later

edit: does this work? not used this image sharing site before

yay! success!

Edit2: forgot to mention, the Google drive folder has 2 zips, you just need the moray v0.1 zip for adding the ship to Oolite, the other Resources zip just contains the textures and ship model in a format suitable for modding if anyone wants to make their own version

Looks most impressive!

This one is absolutely fabulous!!

We all live in a yellow submarine...

Keep up the good work!

Thanks for the kind words guys! I'm hoping to give the Moray Medical it's own model but i might tackle the fer-de-lance next, been collecting various speedboat and fancy billionaire yacht photos for inspiration and turning green with envy

We all live in a yellow submarine...

On the world, where I was spawned
It was mellow and serene
And the peace from dusk to dawn
Spoiled by execs from Trench Marine

They in-ven-ted their Yellow Submarines
Their Yellow Submarines
Their Yellow Submarines

I'd like to shove their Yellow Submarines
Where the sun has never been
There's a sight they've never seen

That's a tough one... Meanwhile, love the cockpit on the moray, really looks like a submersible.
Thanks for another great ship!

something a little bit different from the usual - another attempt at an ice asteroid! must be my 4th or 5th go at these - this time i used Modo's (a 3d app) built in procedural textures to displace and texture a sphere into a spiky boulder shape rather than try and model or sculpt it myself, worked out OK i think
I never got that sub surface shader example to work properly so i'm just faking it here with a glowmap and the night time lights code from Oolite's planet shader

Ice shader test:

Note: the oxp contains a script.js file that keeps spawning these everytime the player launches, so just treat this like a curiosity oxp rather than something to play in game, will probably make a few more of these and release them in a proper pack

It looks best with shaders enabled - it does contain a Materials section in shipdata.plist so will work with those, but it looks a bit too bright in Materials mode at the moment i think

Looks like a dirty icesteroid (that's a good thing by the way ).

The detail and contrast between smooth and rough, with those little highlights, world really well I think.

I like it
