Borderworlds Armored Transport

View in 3D - 19 April
Comparison with the old model

	Borderworlds Armored Transport
Mesh		Texture

This is Not intended as a replacement for the existing "DL" Borderworlds Transport.
The current transports will be staying as-is, and this remake of the old BWT is intended as a new addition to the line.

Not much to say about this one. If you were a fan of the old BWT, here's a sort of a belated apology for taking your favorite toy away. Not strictly a remaster, but a close remake in the style of current transports. This will be submitted as an armored transport and its final stats will be up to balance devs to decide, but if I had to wager a guess I'd say it'll probably end up being the same size as the original, while having slightly less cargo (2.9k-ish?) in return for beefier stats.

Also,

Quote:There's now a Discord server for Disco Modelers to share their on-going projects and gather feedback:

Main updates, major discussions and polls will still be handled via forums, but if you're interested in keeping up with the more incremental updates and providing real-time feedback, feel free to join.

Update:

It's still in the extremely messy sketch phase, but refined some of the shapes and added a few extra bits to fit better with the new armored transport nature of it.
(also moved the comparison to old BWT to a separate p3d link - included in the first post)

Update:

New mesh is up.
Unless some feedback results in a change (and apart from some technical cleanup), the mesh can be considered final at this point.

Why less cargo?

It's a trading ship,ppl use as much cargo as possible,5k is out of the question off course but what's wrong with old 3,5k?
If you want ppl to actually use it in game for trading/smuggling then don't lower it,otherwise it will be used only for nostalgia sort of reasons...

Newer understood that need to fix something that doesn't need fixing,it has been like curse for this game,
so many things gone to waste,so much energy and time spent for meaningless tweeks...

Please,don't change 3,5k cargo and just leave it as it is,it's much,much better then one we have now.
Buffing few stats here and there doesn't mean nothing compared to a beautiful ship flying through space.

P.S. Also use old colors if you can please Smile

Perhaps it's because this transport will become similar to Gallic Assault Transport (3k, 1 heavy slot for flak, a few normal slots, cd and cm)?

Didn't we already had a model change of that ship "recently" ?

Edit: Why not buff it to 3,6 like the Serenity?

^ Added that to the first post to avoid further confusion.

I hope it will be good for cargo piracy.
