[font=Comic Sans Ms]Would you mind posting your reasons behind each ship? A few of them jump out at me saying "Yes, you've used this and it's needing X and Y, but others not so much
' Wrote:Ok, Ive been going through the Wiki of ships that, personally I think need a replacement or changed in some way. I know some will agree and others still rant on that it doesn't need a change. List isnt huge, so not alot got on the list. Here is it:
Civilian Shuttle
Gitano
Sea Serpent
TigerShark
Raven's Talon
Moldy Crow
Bulldog
Waran
BHG Bomber
Civilian Freighter
Pirate Transport
Akegata
Firefly Transport
Perilous - Council Gunboat
Hel
Vidar
Obstinate - Council
Some are the Council ships, too similar to GRN and should emit a feeling that isnt GRN-style. Some are obvious, others arent. The Sea Serpent is one that isnt obvious and needs a change to a differnet model or something similar, but with different characteristics. Anyway, that my list.
Let me pose just one question, and it really is an honest question here.
How many of those ships, do you actively fly, like, in game, with actual characters outside of Open SP?
I think you should fly some of them first, before you go on a holy crusade to replace a bunch of ships.
As somebody who actually knows what they're doing;
Civilian Shuttle - Is fine
Gitano - Needs replace, import
Sea Serpent - Is fine
TigerShark - Could use remodel and retex, design is fine.
Raven's Talon - Needs replace, import
Moldy Crow - Needs replace, import
Bulldog - Not sure if this is an import or what but it needs replacing, texture looks done in MSPaint
Waran - Is fine
BHG Bomber - Is fine
Civilian Freighter - Is fine
Pirate Transport - Is fine
Akegata - Needs replace, import
Firefly Transport - Needs replace, import
Perilous - Council Gunboat - Is fine
Hel - Model done, pending update
Vidar - Model done, pending update
Obstinate - Council - Is fine
Civilian Shuttle - Replacement was asked
Gitano - Needs replace, import
Sea Serpent - Small alterations to model
TigerShark - Could use remodel and retex
Raven's Talon - Needs replace, import
Moldy Crow - Needs replace, import
Bulldog - Needs replacement, import
Waran - Replacement model, no one really likes the current one
BHG Bomber - Bulky, un-used, and otherwise unnecessary(BHG players are using the Civilian Bombers anyway)
Civilian Freighter - Minor alterations to model
Pirate Transport - Retexture, removal of Rogue Emblem
Akegata - Needs replace, import
Firefly Transport - Needs replace, import
Perilous - Council Gunboat - Need to be altered, copy of GRN Perilous
Hel - Been asked for a remodeling to replace old
Vidar - Been asked for a remodeling to replace old
Obstinate - Council - Needs to altered, copy of GRN Obstinate
And no, I haven't flown alot of em, cause I don't need a reason to. The fact is that alot of the models were done in a bad way, where they wanted to fill in the gaps of their promise of 100+ ships. They should have taken their time instead of importing many of the models. To tell you the truth, Crossfire has some originals, some from the ModDB user, Kuze. For those that don't know about him, here's the link to his profile Image Section, he posted some of the models and are up for download as well.
