Epsilon mod - Comments and feedback

  • Hello again <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> An update.... since we have been asked by several people we plan to do a weapons mod.... not just weapons effects... but new cmps as well... I have done 2 new turrets designed for heavy freighters and capships plus one new small ship gun - the &quot;Green Terror&quot; level 5 Tachyon gun..... plus I have several more in progress including a capship rocket launcher, a small ship rocket launcher, another turret and small ship guns ... including an alien gun type. Parabolix is working on new sound and visual effects to go with them <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> <img src=smilies/icon_smile_tongue.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> a couple of pictures of the &quot;Green Terror&quot; follow: <img src=´http://members.optusnet.com.au/~audioele/mypic92.JPG ´> <img src=´http://members.optusnet.com.au/~audioele/mypic93.JPG ´> Neat huh<img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> Also, Dark Dragon has joined the team and will be providing new systems, there could be as many as 30 new systems when he is finished... they are being tested now so you can expect to see contributions from him from time to time... We hope to have stage 2 out just before Christmas (all going well).... <img src=smilies/icon_smile_cool.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> Will keep you posted.. more ships and weapons on the way.

  • jj001, Yep got your email, I will discuss it with the other mod team members and will get back to you... why settle for one weapon when you can have several... very good idea, thanx. <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> see above piccy´s (another very high refire rate weapon) LOL! MajosEa, Thanks for the logo... keep your eye on this page - very good job - very nice <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> Harrier. <img src=´http://members.optusnet.com.au/~audioele/mypic76.jpg ´> Retreat[![! ---- I´m too badly messed up now[![!

  • There are 24 systems as of yet... a few are almost empty but i assure you they have a reason. Some are for MP as well you see <img src=smilies/icon_smile_wink.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> *Aka Darky*

  • Well all, Time for another update lol, weapons pack is proceeding as per plan.... A new ship has been completed.... <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> The Tiapan - Heavy fighter: 6 guns, 2 missiles, CM, CD... rated 6/8 will be flown by Golden C - so if you are on the wrong side of them... watch your step when in kusari space.... will be very fast. Also we hope to make AI and NPC ships faster plus add regen shields ... just to even the odds a little. There is a good chance that not only will there be battlship encounters - you will be able to buy the Nemisis... with it you should be able to more than hold your own.. lol <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> so long as you have deep pockets and long arms.... <img src=smilies/icon_smile_tongue.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle><img src=smilies/icon_smile_wink.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> Harrier <img src=´http://members.optusnet.com.au/~audioele/mypic94.JPG ´> <img src=´http://members.optusnet.com.au/~audioele/mypic76.jpg ´> Retreat[![! ---- I´m too badly messed up now[![!

  • Cool ship. I really like the lines. Just curious, but the paint scheme looks similar to the &quot;rainbow chickenwire&quot; pattern used by the German air force in WW1. Is that where you got it?

  • von Murrin, No.. it is a replica of a pattern I created by ´accident´ if you like in ps7.. much repeated and sized then split down the middle and mirrored.. Though I am interested in colour and would appreciate any odd shots you may have.. I prefer to create ships that are sleeker so any ´odd ball textures´ are appreciated...<img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> thanx for your response....

  • howdy. this is one absoltley cool mod, similar what i want to do. there is a couple of things that bug me. 1. the cockpits are all reflective, with no sight of the pilot. 2. the raipier sport. its a great idea, with the flames and all, but have you thought of flames similar to these. <img src=´http://www.ishibashi.co.jp/rep…02/DK2-Hot-Rod-Flames.jpg the colors could be changed from faction to faction. otherwise, me being a hot rod fan, its cool well ive rambled enough, and im just waiting for the file to download. ´> ----------------- Diminutive. that word contradicts itself.

  • jake_langley, Thanx for the comments...<img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> Nice flames... hmmm... I have something in mind if I can find some more similar.. can you point me to some more.. colour is cool. A little ship called the Electra for the poor cannon fodder Xeno´s, small, powerful, fast------ a surprise for those who want to get a better factional relationship... lol <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> <img src=smilies/icon_smile_tongue.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> ... who go to Colorado and expect to find easy meat... the Xeno´s have had enough .. recruiting is hard.. what with all those minerals right on their doorstep.... maybe with better training and better equipment... The reflective cockpits .. keeps the sun out of your eyes.. lol .. yeah I can do tinted cockpits semi clear but most of those ships were done before I learned how... I will work on doing it for some of the new ships..... Glad you like the mod. <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> Harrier. <img src=´http://members.optusnet.com.au/~audioele/mypic76.jpg ´> Retreat[![! ---- I´m too badly messed up now[![!

  • harrier, i got a heap of flame pics in magazines, but i havent got a scanner to put them on my pc. if i knew how to texture, and had ps7, i could retexture it for you. that is unless you know how to do it in corel photopaint. i downloaded your mod, and it be trippy one more thing, if you want some rather oddball-style ship designs, i got some in the works. so if you want em, just ask. ----------------- Diminutive. that word contradicts itself.

  • jake_langley, I have sent you an email.... thanks for your interest Pity about the textures, I have had to make all my flames from one tiny sample that I got off the net... If you can get em to me then I would be grateful... <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> I have only ever used ps7 for textures.. but if corel is able to do layers then the same principle applies Glad you like the mod.. a lot of time has gone into it... the second part is well along now.. <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> I would like to look at your models... could you send them to me please along with whatever ideas you have for texturing them.. I will look at them and get back to you... I have quite a lot of models made and still to be done but good designs are always welcome.
