Giltone Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Vorgra, gottaa say, i love the DCV. Though i will admit, i did tinker with it, swapping out the iron armor in the forward section. was causing way too much drifting for my tastes. Even so, keep up the good work in the designs.

MrVorgra Posted February 20, 2017 Author Share Posted February 20, 2017 Wait, its iron? I thought it was trinium.... AHHhH!H!HHH!H! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunamik Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Just copy it to clipboard and paste it as trinium, problem solved.. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giltone Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 You can also just select the "Change/switch to" tool when you have trinium armor selected. It's an easy thing to miss at times! though i did replace all that delicious armor, with cargo, shields and moar powah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not to much of a fan of using shields (mainly due to the infuriating fuzz-blur when trying to make gifs, or building intricate details) I like to go for a 150% shields vs Total HP.

Yeah that makes sense, one way i could see getting around the whole issue with the shields blurring is to not have them for it, keep em somewhere easy to reach and replace em with another block for the purposes of the gifs or while building.

MrVorgra Posted February 21, 2017 Author Share Posted February 21, 2017 Good Idea, too late for my other ships but Ill keep that in mind, I've never really understood why they constantly flare up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerpSuper++ Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 God damn, the amount of fine little details put into your ships, it's just amazing. I spend time on some of my designs, but never do I have the patience (or time, anyway) to go that far in. :P Amazing work, right there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xeranes Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Your ships are absolutely gorgeous! It's mind-blowing what people can make in this game! Any tips on how to improve the maneuverability a bit, while keeping with your design aesthetic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giltone Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Cant find the download for the MultiPurpose Carrier Ship.. Would love to get it :) Same here, been looking for a good carrier type ship (aside from modifying one of the 40K Imperial navy ships from Zajc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrVorgra Posted February 26, 2017 Author Share Posted February 26, 2017 Rightio, XML is up, In terms of improving maneuverability (for Beta at least) I have been "digging" into the ship where each external thruster is and subsequently increasing the volume of the thruster, this sort of retains the look while improving on performance a bit.

Sgthavick27 Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Would it be possible to get the cheap distroyer? I love the scale plates an the desgin of it as well. It would be awsome to have as well! You did a vet nice job on the ship!! Great work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giltone Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Vorgra, love the carrier's look so far, but man, you and me gotta have some words, specifically the words Turning and Braking ;D I've seen bricks turn faster, but i'll have some fun at least, hunting down all those little bits of iron and converting it to Trinium! Also, i did note that the under side hangars were being blocked! Any idea on what parts are causing it to register as invalid? EDIT: And painting it! looks nice unpainted but my fleet gotta match ya know. thinking of either dark Avorion/grey or Dark trinium and ivory! Edit #2: As a Side note, while i was replacing pieces, the computer cores near the bow of the carrier, do not contribute enough increased volume it seems to bump it from 8 to 9, as far as i am aware, they're better off in smaller ships where the amount of volume from one upgrade slot to the next is significantly smaller.

MrVorgra Posted February 27, 2017 Author Share Posted February 27, 2017 The computer cores bumped it up from 7 to 8, unless he changed the stats for the core, Ill look into it soon. Ive fixed the lower Hangers, it was a few angle pieces and plates of Armour that although didn't look like they affected the hanger, their bounding boxes intersected ever so slightly into the hanger "Clear Path". Id love tho see your color combinations, The Ivory and Blue sounds nice, I rarely paint unless its to blend, or accent parts, or if it is for glow/hologram, or if the ship look identical to another but has a specifically different setup for a different purpose, that way It's easier to tell apart. I think you'll find just replacing the Iron cargo with trinium Cargo will improve the turn rates.... The carrier is actually the more nimble of my vessels, if they seem to be stalling or not moving at all then rotate/roll the vessel and it should begin turning quite rapidly. I've gotten to the point that I don't actually use the large vessels beyond them being a station or primary combat tanks/standoff vessels, I usually have a fleet of combat/Salvage/Freighters/Miners with me to do all the dirty work. I have also updated the Multipurpose warship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have also updated the Multipurpose warship. as far as all the Iron and titanium bits, they add more total weight to the craft, which means you need more thrusters to counter it. Most of the higher tier vessels i've seen use use trinium for almost everything besides major internals (which is made of avorion) out of all the materials Trinium is by far the lightest, while Iron is the absolute heaviest (though only slightly heavier than Ognite) Keeps the mass down means you don't have to utilize as many thrusters to bring it to a halt (As a side note, trinium is only 6 mass lighter than Xanion, though the benefit Xanion gives does not quite make it worth it from what i have read.) As for my paint schemes, i'll see hit up creative and paint the DCV! EDIT #1: Did a quick paint job, and here's the DCV ready for action Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
