' Wrote:As for the Upholder, I know people have been wanting a new model, but to be honest there's nothing aesthetically(don't get me started on the mesh) wrong with the current one, apart from shoddy texture job (appears Xing is great at doing that!).
We do not want a new model for Upholder. We want a new ship as trhe Upholder is a total POS. No one gives a dam about its looks. It is the stats that suck.
' Wrote:I like the new texture, but if the Grizzly is going to get any work done, PLEASE even out the engines
Didn't realise they were wonky, but I guess I never paid much attention.
I'll take a look and fix it, it's not something that affects anything but the aesthetics so I can't imagine the devs having an issue with me rearranging the engine hardpoints.
Keep dropping opinions on lighter or darker, it's literally like three clicks to change.
Upholder is about 1-2 thirds done.
As for the ship itself, I'm not aware of any new Upholder being submitted, and it's not like I can change it's stats through the textures, so the best I'm willing to do is give it a facelift.
Direct concerns about the ship being terrible to the balance team.
I hope you're aware of how the FL engine handles smoothing. Overall is nicer than the old one yes, but I notice a couple of hard angles on there that seem to have been mapped together.
