' Wrote:Jinx, looks fantastic. Only bit of feedback is have the ship white in color and/or some type of bright effect. That way the ship is easily visible against the dark backdrop. Seeing the ship from a distance is important as new players would naturally fly toward it to see what the heck it is.

Thanks for all your hard work,

Sass

Or we could petition Administrators to be able to mount one green buoy effect light on our Angels, which allows the same thing?


Jinx, based on what you said to Gurjiv here, I was too going to ask for a bigger cockpit and front part of the ship, until I read that we are mounting GB turrets and the ship is large?

I have no problems with the model, but why is it so large and why is it a GB?

Awesome design. The wings are just subtle enough to be plausible in FL, and just wing-like enough to be angel-like in design. Well done, and thank you.:D

Large = Noticable
Gunship = For making Missions with new Players for repping them.

Fair enough.

I suppose we do end up doing missions, but I only see that being used for our auxiliary Angels.

Oh well, I would like to fly one.:)

why do i think it is beneficial to feature gunboat weapons and fighter weapons at the same time?

now, such an approach would be unbalancing for any real starship - but angels are rather tutors. - and it may be beneficial to explain and demonstrate the differences between warship weaponry ( gunboat turrets are basicly warship weapons like battleship or cruiser weapons ) - as well as demonstrating the use of fightermissiles, torpedos and fighterguns.

fightermissiles behave different to warship missiles for example, gunboat gunturrets are different to fighterguns - etc.

having all those aboard means that one single ship can show players all that is to know about weaponry and general pvp. - it can remain stationary and fire gunboat missiles teaching dodging of low tracking missiles, it can charge / joust them in a practice to show how the missiles danger changes when fired from a thrusting ship.

it can demontrate the use of fighterguns - as well as the use of gunboat guns - etc.

why must the ship be that large then?

its an aesthetical answer. - gunboat weapons have a specific size - and in order to leave the ship a certain aesthetic value and appearence, the ships size must be sized against the largest weapon. gunboat turrets are some 5 to 10 times larger than fighterguns - the ship needs to have a sufficient size - or it ll look like a few gunturrets flying with a ship - and not the other way round.

Quote:the questions are:

- is the ship fitting the angels faction?
- should it be more abstract?
- can we imagine such a ship to be used in freelancer, even by a faction that is not necessarily part of the core roleplay - but might just chose to either participate or be ooc.

The ship its fittng for the Angels very much!
The cockpit looks too much with the Raven Talon but I guess that could be fixed
Of course we can imagine it in Freelancer, but it will be out of the storyline (complety OOC) but since The_Angels its a OOC faction designated to help players I dont think it matters.

Quote:Could the ship actually be abstract and.. transparent and with some long "tentacles" like that angel from Diablo has?

Abstract and transparent sounds cool, tentacles dont.

The ship its a piece of art. Great job, jinx.

Excellent.

I'd suggest a light slot on each tip of the feathers is in order.
