Keep in mind that the modeler has no dictation other that suggestions on loadout or balance of ships.:P

more ships? really? I dont think we need more of them this will end up in tonnes of ships with different styles but with sabre/titan/werewolf stats

Is that a bad thing?
The Freelancer universe we play in is pretty large.
We're talking billions of people, mammoth amounts of resources and technology that we dream of.
I'd imagine there's quite a few ships on the market.
Much how original FL didn't let you fly capitals, this is something that Disco can help with.
In terms of the ship.
The men to talk to about the ship popping into the mod are Aeternus and Lohingren.
I would advise not paying the money till the ship gets in the mod.
I can't imagine folks trying to be arses but if the modeller doesn't fancy fixing up his model or doing better texturing, you're stuck paying him for work that doesn't meet the mod's standards and so won't go in.

Also the idea sounds like a redesigned Spatial with a smaller profile and no SNAC.
Yeah while it may not even be in time for final 86, they said they were going to be updating in a new much quicker way than the 85-86 transition, from now on.
And yeah, maybe it could replace the Spatial, which I hear is an import and needs to be replaced, it'd have to be quite a lot better than a Spatial to match up to a SAC equipped Arrastra though.
P.S. If you accept payment i get all rights to the ship. Not sure what those are, but I saw something about it in Igliss's ship submission posts. :P
Oh and Linkus, I said that I would pay once the Devs accept it, in the first post.

As soon as the ship is accepted into the mod, it belongs to Discovery.

2) The creator of original model retains the rights for the model, texture, and sur file (if the latter was provided). Using the model and texture in any mods for Freelancer (except Discovery) and mods for other games is not allowed, unless the permission is granted by model owner.
Dare you defy the almighty word of Igiss?

I meant in regards to balance, and there's not much you could do there anyway.

So... When you submit a model, the devs do all the balancing, independent of you, and they can do whatever they want with it, so you could submit a model for a fighter, and they could use it for a... transport? So... is there any point in me comissioning something, if the devs will just do what they want with it?
I dont really know how it works.

modeller can do wonders for balancing the ship if it takes into regard how ship will be used and shapes it and size it accordingly.
Also, part of ship submission is also its ini file that holds ship stats and that is written by modeller. So initial stats are made by modeller and later balance team changes it as they see fit. If done correctly stats change only slightly.
