Neddy Seagoon posted:drat, that Frigate is nice Thanks. Yup, Grav cannon works, I've been messing with it to make the blast door open/close automatically and display everything with the LCD script. I want to setup rapid fired too, maybe with a smaller round. But, the recent patch changed the way grav gens and mass blocks work, I think its gonna effect gravity cannons.

How've you gone with integrating the Gravity Cannon? All working properly now?

Another week, another round of teasi-holy poo poo.  quote:Summary Can anyone who's played with the hacked-in version of planets tell me if the reach of atmosphere is under 800m? I want to know if I can glass the surface clean of spiders from orbit  . Also I am quite, quite thankful I built orbital-deployable Bunkers now, though I should probably stick a gatling gun on the roof. Or make a deployable perimeter defense tower.

I hope they're space-spiders, or that they can grab onto your ship/lay eggs on/in your hull while you're not looking, so you get Alien'd once you lift off and hit space  VVVV Just build poo poo wherever and call it Minmatar

Hey everyone. It's been a while since I've played SE or been on the forums. You can blame Hideo Kojima for that. If there anyone here who uses 3D import software to compile hulls, specifically ships from EVE Online? The things I build solo have zero aesthetic form, looking more like giant floating space bricks unless I pull specific sections from imports by other users. I do also like the challenge of making all the systems fit inside of a pre-built hull with little external modifications. Anyone here gently caress around with that stuff? Neddy Seagoon posted:Okay.

Looking at the bug forum and apparently it's a wee bit crash-y at the moment, so as always; wait for the daily hotfix. (I'll update the bug status in the OP when it drops)

I can't wait to misjudge the gravity and my ship's thrusters so I eat poo poo from orbit. Then try to hunker down in the busted wreck while alien hellspawn tries to find a way inside.

Imagine how hard it's gonna be for the pubbies who have never played this before, trying to weld together spider legs to shove into their reactors when they have no oxygen in their suits, unable to take their helmets off.

To be fair, there are tutorials now. Though of course there'll still be pubbies ignoring them and complaining about why they just fell over dead for no reason while standing inside an oxygenated ship.

I can't help but wonder if it'll be an option to start on a planet or in space when you start a new game when planets hit. Starting out on a planet would certainly help the whole "rush for oxygen" thing and probably help protect you from pirates, while giving you the challenge of building something that can reach orbit before you can go explore.

They will probably add some to the custom starts. Easy Planet Start 1, Very Easy Planet Start 2, a new crashed Red Ship, etc. This patch is way buggy though. Nvidia driver crashes and cargo ships isn't checkable in the options. Mercutio Martino posted:Hey everyone. It's been a while since I've played SE or been on the forums. You can blame Hideo Kojima for that. I tried messing with SEToolbox's 3d import. It uses most standard files types, you can choose to have the ship solid or hollow shell, smoothed or not and adjust the scale. I used some free stuff from model sites and a star trek mod site, but nothing really generated well. They all required more hull shaping and fixing places where the smoothing didn't work. If you find some low poly/low detail models it might work better. Jigoku San fucked around with this message at 03:21 on Oct 16, 2015 |

I've been dicking around with it, but the models I'm looking at are all in various formats and getting them to open in TriExporter are proving to be a hassle. Anything available online in .3ds is from 2012 at best. Anyone know how to convert or find the files from 2015? New ships from EVE and so forth...

Unfortunately I have forgotten all I learned about converting models, and I used to know quite a bit. I do know you can use most any type of file though, as I was pulling .alos out of Star Wars: Empire at war, running them through 3DS Max to drop the polys and It is nigh impossible to get a no-rework needed level ship out of the conversion process though, it just an inherent part of what you're trying to do. Nothing you're going to convert is going to line up properly to the 1x1 grid of large ships, so whatever program you're using to convert is going to make some sacrifices, and then some more to make up for that and then some more... If you really want a nice ship, you'd open it up in 3DS max and rework your desired ship into cut up blocks, so you can just legit build a properly shaped nerd fest. Hell of a hassle though. Edit: I say that is hassle as someone who half modeled their own star destroyer before going down the ripping .alo route. E2: All this talk of models makes me wonder how hard it would be to swap the spider model with an actual proper alien model and lovely animation 1st year animation.

Surely they would have considered the strength of such weapons when making the spiders? You might find the turrets unable to target smallish lifeforms like this.

McGiggins posted:Surely they would have considered the strength of such weapons when making the spiders? Someone dug the models out of the source code a few months back and they're anything but "smallish". Besides, turrets can shoot a moving 1x1x1 Small Block by tracking motion at 800m. A bug the size of a person's not much of a stretch.

Do we know if the modder did the scaling on it at all? Models can exist in any size and can be scaled around in most game engines.
