Oolite Bulletins

Shortly after Staer9 Industries had it's assets frozen by GalCop a new company was formed, known as GHOST (Galactic Heavy Ordnance and Ship Technology). It is rumoured that Staer9 has some place in the R&D team, but so far nothing can be proven.

The Ghost Gunship is the first ship to be officially released by GHOST, although several others have somehow found their way into the black-market. GHOST requested a special grant from GalCop to produce ships Tax-Free, which the corrupt officials quickly agreed to after acepting a shipment of the Gunships for their fleet. Because of this the Gunships are quite good value-for-money and were quickly snapped up by many pirates.

Changelog:
version 1 - original release
version 1.1 - unreleased test version (unreleased due to a misspelling which was thankfully found before release)
version 1.2 - made the lasers frangable and added two more front lasers, which was the original intent, also changed it's name to GHOST Gunship (Thanks EV) as well as heavy polygon removal which chops it from 6400 to 3600

crikey, that looks nice. how many polys is that?!

That's awesome S9 - very impressive.

Added to the [wiki]OXP List[/wiki] as well.

ah, it's a little player thing - from the screenie i thought it was some humungous mega gunplatform thing.

Ha! Yes I thought it was HUGE.

ASAD Gunship.


a sad gunship? ..............


You might want to change the name.


That's a very interesting ship by the way. As Smiv's and KW have said it looks like a much bigger ship. I wish I had your ability to model. Just looking at that threatens to crash my netbook.

yeah well.... Got a better name for a company specializing in advanced weaponry? (just an excuse to make some uber ships )

Don't think I'll be adding that, my little Netbook will slow to a crawl...

Large or small it's one gnarly looking ship. Good job S9!

It only causes problems if your average FPS before installing is less than 24, because it causes a 6FPS decrease when in veiw and in scanner range and a 3FPS decrease when not in veiw, but in scanner range.

I runs on this laptop at 19FPS, which isn't all that great, but I was in the middle of an asteroid field anyway...
