Oh? There's not much in the way of distinctly unlawful civilian ships, and the ones that there are tend to be associated with the Outcasts. Maybe the Corsairs decided to make something for their allies (and some freelancers) to use?
It does need some refinement, but I can see a role for the basic design.
' Wrote:Alright, dick comment aside, heres some REAL critique.
Cockpit, too far down, looks like 1 rock impact or laser hit and pilot dies. perhaps make it more like the traditional FL ones.
Wings, practically no detail on top, just a curved surface. perhaps add some more lines or somthing, but atm its pretty featureless from above.
engines, actually quite good, makes it look sorta like a attack craft.
Texture, doesent fit any Freelancer textures. try experimenting with the Civ and borderworld textures perhaps. Its a good start, but frankly needs more work to match up to what we alread have. Id also suggest it as a HF, as LF and HF classes need more love, and that ship looks designed to be low profile.
Thanks, i?ll try to change textures to be more freelancerish. The cockpit could seem not very strong but we cann?t know what material could be used in the future for the glasses of the cockpit, and the shield must do that job i think. For example, the cockpit of the Valkyrie, Defender, Anubys,... not seem to be more strong.
The wings...well, with other textures i think it could seem more detailed; for example wings from Titan, eagle, aren?t more detailed. And I think a **** must be very aerodynamic to fly better.
I will change the textures. I would appreciate your opinion after that change.
Although I disagree on some things I appreciate this kind of criticism.

Yes, it seems Corsairish in my view.

Thanks, i?ll change the textures to see the effect.
Once again sorry for my limited English, I find it hard to write some things right

Well, I think it looks great. Maybe a pregnant Eagle, Waran, or Havok MK 2 replacement? Right now, we have 3 civilian/vigilante/mercenary/freelancer ships. I believe that is enough, but the ships above could really use a replacement.

Thanks, i like havok tto (i have a player with that vessel).
Actually i did prefer it to be a mercenary ship, freelancer or supervisor, but I haven?t problems with other options (may be even to some other non-military faction as scientists - to collect nomad brains for research can be a dangerous work - or any commercial or mining faction which need escorts from their own people) anyway the freelancer or mercenaries should be available for a large range of ships because i think independent factions haven?t to submit to discipline as would be the police or military factions. But of course this is only my opinion.

i can upload the complete ship mod with all mod files if you want to include in the discovery and you want to change some things (infocards, weapons ,...) in principle the ship is sold on the Leon base (omega-41)
how can i upload it or send you?

Er
Preagle has been replaced since 4.85 came out. Waran is perfectly fine. Havok is.....ehhhhh

The overall shape is quite nice, so don't give up on it. As others have mentioned though, the cockpit - and indeed the entire fuselage - appear to be a little on the anorexic side. Try simply increasing the fuselage size perhaps and extend a little more out from the cockpit? From your comments I guess that you like the idea of a cockpit with a good viewable area, but right now it does look too flimsy in my opinion.
Quote:Why does it have kitty ears :/
That's all I can see when I look at that ship. If it ever gets implemented, the ears must stay and the ship should be called Fox!
That said, you commented about Aerodynamics - remember that we're playing a space shooter, and that there's simply no place for aerodynamics in space. In theory, a perfect cube would fly just as well in space as a sleek fighter - it's simply the objects mass that determines it's agility, not it's shape.
