lordkabal26 Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 To get the material costs there's a mod that adds a /price function you can use from the mod section that can give you the credits and raw material costs of any ship. easiest way is to load the creation in creative mode to get the costs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shieldmate Posted February 6, 2017 Author Share Posted February 6, 2017 Thanks, I'm definitely going to use that mod. When I try to load a ship in sandbox than no numbers appear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yodarkore Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 http://www.avorion.net/forum/index.php/topic,830.0.html is where you can find the mod. I havent installed it yet, but i sure will, the /price command is what we are looking for. Good job at designing those ships, battlefleet gothic: armada ahead! :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shieldmate Posted February 6, 2017 Author Share Posted February 6, 2017 Thank you. Somebody had to start to build the Gothic Armada. I'm going to need a cargo hauler ship in my playthrough soon, so that could be next. It would be nice if somebody helped though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ertil87 Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 iv just been waiting for a 40k ship <3 you sir deserve a emperor size cookie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenegadeKraken Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Oh this is just beautiful, absolutely and positively beautiful. Have you considered doing a Firestorm or Sword class and make it out of basic material or maybe make one or two versions of your ships for starters to work toward? I am terrible, like absolutely terrible at creative things so these ships are a godsend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shieldmate Posted February 7, 2017 Author Share Posted February 7, 2017 Sword was little too big for a starter ship imo so I built the Cobra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shieldmate Posted February 7, 2017 Author Share Posted February 7, 2017 There is a problem with larger iron/titanium ships. The warp drive takes a while to recharge. And Cobra is the smallest W40k war ship I know of. So you are better off using jump gates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenegadeKraken Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Sir I've got no idea how you do it but this is just so well done. Thank you, I'm going to start a new game using the Cobra and working my way up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shieldmate Posted February 7, 2017 Author Share Posted February 7, 2017 I look at a picture and try to match it. Probably not very original :) . I am very pleased that you like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SageThe13th Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 These look spot on. Good job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenegadeKraken Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Please, please, please tell me you plan to do more Imperial ships and even branch out into Space Marine ships. Your art on these is just too amazing to not continue. Maybe even set up a Patreon for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shieldmate Posted February 7, 2017 Author Share Posted February 7, 2017 I think that sooner or later the community will supply all the cool ships. I will build a titanium/neonite ship that can fill in the gap between the Cobra and the Dauntless hopefully soonish.Than I will actually play the game (I don't even have the Dauntless yet) and than I'll think about some mighty battleship when I need a better ship. I might build an original ship that ressembles W40k imperial navy, but better suits my playstyle and the game mechanics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenegadeKraken Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Could you consider doing a cruiser and then a battlecruiser? Maybe a Lunar and an Overlord? I understand the community would provide the ships eventually but these are just too good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shieldmate Posted February 7, 2017 Author Share Posted February 7, 2017 I might build one of those eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenegadeKraken Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Now, how exactly do I port these ships over? Not quite sure where the .xml goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shieldmate Posted February 7, 2017 Author Share Posted February 7, 2017 Hit the Windows button + R, type %appdata% A window opens. Find Avorion/ships and paste it in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenegadeKraken Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Got it, thank you. Cobra handles beautifully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenegadeKraken Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Can you enlighten me on how you built these and usually how long they took? Information regarding this would be great so I may be of some help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shieldmate Posted February 8, 2017 Author Share Posted February 8, 2017 First I try to determine scale of the ship. When you write "W40k ships" into google, you can find most of the ships in one image and compare them to each other. Then I set length af a ship section I want to build in single blocks (0,5 scale so far). Find images of the ship from different angles. The start is the most difficult, because I can't compare the ship to itself, but once you have a section done, the other ones are easier. Most importantly try to copy the ratios and angles.

RenegadeKraken Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Well I am extremely envious of your ability to produce things with this high of quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenegadeKraken Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Well so far the Cobra is a great little ship but the problem is that there's not really a bigger upgrade from it. Maybe consider doing the Sword class as an upgrade from the Cobra because while the dauntless is great it's just extremely expensive in the beginning-ish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shieldmate Posted February 9, 2017 Author Share Posted February 9, 2017 I built another ship. Sorry, it is not a W40k ship. You see, I wanted large squadrons of fighters and there are not many dedicated fighter carriers in Warhammer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenegadeKraken Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Well the Imperial Navy has a significant amount of carrier ships, but they are only different in aesthetics from other Imperial warships, such as the Emperor-class Battleship was a dedicated Carrier. https://andygomez.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/dscf1461.jpg Then for a lighter Carrier based on the Cruiser design you have the Dictator. http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/warhammer40k/images/2/28/Battlefleet_Koronus.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20130414172243 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
