Domanating Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 I've built some things. I assume they don't need introduction Tie Fighter Practical Tie Fighter and IRL sized Mini-Tie Fighter (for the lolz) are now available. A few tweaks were made compared to the original pic. Resources needed: Iron You have 1 slot right beneath the cockpit to fit the gun and it's locked in place just like the real deal. Of course you may change that. Only .3 guns can be fitted in the slot. Resources needed: Iron and Titanium Downloads Tie Fighter 1:1 scale Mini-Tie Fighter 1:1 Imperator Class Star Destroyer Resources needed: Iron, Titanium, Naonite and Trinium It's a pricey ship. Hope you can afford it After learning about the hangar clearance needed to launch fighters I've made a modified version of the ship bay so that they can be used. In the last picture you can see how the modified Star destroyer's ship bay looks like. Whether you want fighters or an aesthetically pleasing hangar without fighters is your choice. Downloads Imperator Class Star Destroyer Imperator Class Star Destroyer - Fighter modification 1:1 Victory Class Star Destroyer Resources needed: Iron, Titanium, Naonite and Trinium Smaller and more agile than the Imperator-Class, it's a better suited option for early growing empires. Like it's big brother, it comes with 2 variations: with or without the ability to launch fighters. Like the "real" deal, the broadsides of the vessel have 15 slots on each side intended for seeker missiles of size .5 or 1.

Domanating Posted February 12, 2017 Author Share Posted February 12, 2017 Cheers :) I'm not releasing the Star Destroyer yet as I believe more details are needed (ex: more superstructure parts, more armor plating bulges in the main fuselage and secondary hangar bay) but the tie fighter I can make it available when I get home. I can give you the practical Tie fighter and the 1:1 scale variant (good for nothing except scouting) if you want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Kuat gets that Star Destroyer up and running I'd be insterested in that as well. Great work on both ships! I look forward to admiring more of your builds in the future.

Armada115 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 nicely done, been trying to build a Star Destroyer but i can't seem to do what you have managed, look forward to you releasing it and giving a bash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Domanating Posted February 13, 2017 Author Share Posted February 13, 2017 Cheers guys! Just to say I've updated the Tie fighters (nope not the Star Destroyer, yet). With the building skills I've gained from the Star Destroyer, looking back at the Tie Fighter the solar panels were giving me cancer so I refined the corners. Also the engine is slightly more powerful The downloads are now on GoogleDrive since it appears to be a popular way to do it here BEFORE AFTER Another thing I was thinking about is the fact that limited to 5 crew it's not possible to have the Tie fighter controlled by AI. Not with 2 guns it can't. 4 gunners and 1 mechanic but no captain. I thought about having only one gun slot and removing the massive crew quarters cube inside the cockpit. This way it'll be 2 gunners, 1 mechanic and 1 captain. In addition with the free space it would allow me to make a much more powerful engine. Let me know your thoughts.

ddark16 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 I would really like to be able to use the tie fighters as patrol vessels in my sector to accompany my larger combat ships, so for what I would use them for a captain is a must. However, I am having a hard time mounting guns to them even small guns come up red and don't fit on the larger model. Am i missing something?

They must have Size----------0.3 on their description Edit: Tie fighter with single gun mount available. The engine is more powerful and it's AI capable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddark16 Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 I'll double check when i'm on again, and try out the single gun fighter, i want to flood my system with patrol craft that assist the main ships i have guarding my mines. these should work well until you release your star destroyer which will become a primary ship in my fleet.

Domanating Posted February 15, 2017 Author Share Posted February 15, 2017 I just realized my Star Destroyer cannot use fighters because the hangars require a ridiculous amount of clearance to launch them. I'm so sad :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmpireEmpathizer Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 I spent sometime with it in creative mode, I love it! Well done and very detailed. Do you have any ships planned in the future? Maybe a Gladiator class or a Victory class? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
