Hi all,

I am happy to release a bundle which adds 6 new paint jobs for the Fer-de-Lance for both the player and the NPCs. This work is based on Griff's Fer-de-Lance.

Good stuff. What are those first images, though - the ones before the heading, 'Paint Jobs'? Are they images of Griff's original Ferdie?

Thanks! But I don't understand what you mean by first images before the heading, do you mean the 4 screenshots I posted above the Paint Jobs section? If so, those are some screenshots of the new liveries included in this OXP. Basically, I tend to post some random "in action" screenshots after the description, and then under "Paint Jobs" I post one of each with a black background and neutral ambient light, so you will see that those 4 first screenshots show the red and black variants which are listed after. Makes sense?

> I don't understand what you mean by first images before the heading, do you mean the 4 screenshots I posted above the Paint Jobs section?

Yes. That is what I meant. So, those four screenshots are 'in action' pictures of (some of) the ships with your new paint jobs, whereas the other images are what we might call 'posed' images of the same ships? OK.

Yes, that's exactly it

Important note: I have update all my OXPs to the in-game extension download manager, so I am removing the links from all my posts. Please use the manager and report here any issues.

Version 1.2 released with three new paint jobs:

Very, very nice! You’ll have to have a go at some of the other ships, like the Moray, Boa and Anaconda. Maybe even head for some npc only ships like the Mamba, Gecko, Kraft and Sidewinder. Wait, I think I’ve just about asked for everything now...oh well. I’m going with it...if you don’t ask, you never know!

In any case, some very smooth designs I can’t wait to see in game.

These look fantastic!

I love that you and phkb have, with various oxps, drawn influence from another space game of some repute and allowed us ooliters to cherry pick as we wish.

Once again, these textures really suit Griff's detailed model. Bravo

Agreed to that, a great addition to Griff's models, easy to pick a specific color for every organization

Thanks all, I am glad you all like them

@phkb I do intend to create texture packs for all default ships Do you have a preference for the next one?

Hmm, maybe the Moray? It's player flyable, but hasn't received a lot of focus in other packs before. Your call, though.

I had a ship in mind not mentioned yet, the viper. But as phkb said, completely your call.

Cool, I will take a look at the Moray next

I did consider working on the Viper once, but the thing is that only the police use it so a texture pack would not be that useful. Also, phkb and I worked on some improvements for the Dictators OXP and that includes a couple of new textures for the Vipers used in those systems.
