[QUOTE=teh pirate;42627442]Supposedly the spheres on the bridge level are sensors but also have local shield projectors in them for extra protection, not that they did the Executor any good [editline]24th October 2013[/editline] Seriously the Executor was the most useless fucking ship ever if the command deck being wiped out caused the entire ship to stop working and crash into the death star[/QUOTE] iirc it had backup control centers but they wouldn't work well or some shit due to the damage so it fell into the death star despite the fact that it was literally outside the death star's firing range which was pretty fucking huge [I]rebel scum[/I]

Apparently they are deleting steam forum threads that are critical of the game. Does anyone know if this is true?

I just found a 25% coupon in my STEAM inventory. Saved me 3.50€. :dance:

After getting the game, I made this shitty little thing: [t]http://i.imgur.com/tUvJIsh.jpg[/t] Vaguely resembles the pelican from halo, but with a tiny-ass cargo bay.

[T]http://i.imgur.com/CyBBEjE.jpg[/T] [T]http://i.imgur.com/pjYa6l1.jpg[/T] Made a little chicken looking shuttle to get through the cramped parts of the asteroid. It's pretty quick, too.

[QUOTE=Doctor Zedacon;42627119]After playing around with gravity generators, I had an idea for a ship useful in combat. Take a small, highly agile ship, leave it as barebones as possible except rig it with numerous gravity generators. Then fly that towards an enemy base or ship. Completely mess up their own gravity and drag people inside around, and with any luck drag loose people out any openings in the ship either from damage or open doors and hangars.[/QUOTE] Those things should be some kind of gravity-missiles or something. Blast it through a ship and it drags stuff along. Blast it through the bridge for maxinum effect.

I'm using designs from the D20 Future section on Starships to design mine right now. I worked on the smallest one in the book so far but there are many more I'd like to do as well that would work great I feel. Where are screenshots saved, I'll post the few pictures I grabbed. I'll also post pictures of several of the ship art they have in the book in case anyone likes one of the designs and wants to create it. [thumb]http://imageshack.us/a/img4/2072/wyvi.jpg[/thumb] This is the one I was attempting to recreate, using a small ship for it.

Is there a free demo of this anywhere?

Here are the other pictures I got of ships from the D20 Future book. I think many of these would work well as ships in this given how they are designed.

[QUOTE=latin_geek;42628545]Is there a free demo of this anywhere?[/QUOTE] I don't know if it's possible to have a demo at ths point, considering how little content there is.

Huh? I've been making the MCL for a week now, it only crashed once, and right after a save

I went and repainted the cargo shuttle, so it actually looks a bit better now.

[QUOTE=LoLWaT?;42628922]I'm about to give up on my ship. I'm so close to finishing it but the game just isn't stable enough. Maybe I was a bit too ambitious but it's pretty damn tough to build when the game crashes every three to five minutes. My advice to everyone who bought the game today, don't try to make your ships or stations too large or detailed. The game can't handle it right now and it'll all be for nothing. I'll see if I can do anything to find a way around the crashing. [editline]24th October 2013[/editline] Oh and it's funny how i've gotten a coupon for a discount on this game long after i've already bought it :v:[/QUOTE]If you're hitting the memory limit, there's a guide to increase it in the latest patch notes on their forums.

Macrostructure will come nicely from my previous image, once I slap enough measurements on it. Oh, it's just to create a schematic, it doesn't import or anything. Go this far but SINGLEPLAYER LAG ruined starmade for me. [t]https://hostr.co/file/dDgMPyY8QB8n/javaw-2013-07-30-06-18-56-70.png[/t] Cool work! I'll look through them.[/QUOTE]

I'm curious as to how the 2 different lights work. I know the reflectives are basically like HL2's flashlight i.e. dynamic, directional shadow-casting lights, which'd explain lag they cause, but the smaller ones I can have (and indeed do) hundreds of them with no FPS hit.

[QUOTE=LoLWaT?;42629194]It's kind of like a winding maze.[/QUOTE] I get occasionally lost in my own ship because there's no signs or anything in the game yet, and I kind of grew the corridors organically instead of using sensible decks or anything.

All bask in my blocky piece of ship. I wanted to ram it into the red ship at spawn but as I was flying away to get a good run up at it, I lost my bearings of the spawn area :( Now I'm just flying around aimlessly in hope of finding spawn again.

My game froze, I shut it down in taskmanager, steam still said that I was playing it then I shut down steam, tried to start steam but it didnt work, restarted pc and it didnt work still, looked on the steam store site and it says its experiencing some heavy load. Only offline mode works for me now.

I got the game! Holy shit, seeing the model deformation for the first time is just [i]hnnnnng[/i] The controls are really clunky right now, if only the jetpack control is as smooth as the one in Dead Space 2 :v:

[QUOTE=NoDachi;42629889]Except they'll just hit X and not be effected by gravity anymore.[/QUOTE] But it would still be a problem if the ship is moving.

Quick question. Is this game worth getting?

What are the dimensions of a huge block? Looks like 3x3x3 m to me

I started too big project again god damn it this game takes all my time. Anyway I was trying to build the Goa'uld mothership but I have no idea how I should make the structure around the pyramid. So I just started doing my own stuff and added hangar in the middle. Not sure If I should make another hangar under it or start working on the outer structure for weapons and thrusters. I also need to make small pyramid ships..

About to buy and give this a shot. Earlier I mentioned I wanted to build the Valkyrie from Titan AE. But I can't find any decent reference pictures of it. Is there a website that has some semi-decent starship schematics?

[QUOTE=Civil;42629896]But it would still be a problem if the ship is moving.[/QUOTE] Oh right true~
