When you look in front view of a model, the front of the model should be facing upwards and the top of the ship where the front would normally be. In short, I believe that means you should rotate the ship 90 degrees over the X axis and 180 on the y.
Only thing I hate about them is when you turn them off, though they don't leave their area to attack, they're still there. I started one game in a map I slapped together...and got screwed. There were three pirate bases all randomly placed that blocked my way to my sun when I only had 4 planets. That's a real game killer. Otherwise, I think they're OK. It's nice when you have extra credits and can't have more ships or you're waiting for something and want to harass your enemies.

what type of files do you need to do make the 3d models for Sins? If I made a basic model and put in .3ds .obj or .vtx, would you be able to make detail modifications, skin it, and use it as an object? I've never made a model for a game or mod before, but I have tinkered with 3d animation. I'd like to try adding to the Star Control area. As a side note, your Kohr-Ah ship looks great! Just a suggestion, but could you add some ship lights in slits (like the Enterprise D or other Star
I first plated Star Control in middle school - my explorations class had old computers for use once you finished your work. Star Con dueling was a daily adventure (along with Cow Wars, but I won't go there now). Ever since then, I've tried to get the original working. I like Ur-Quan Master (SC2), but it's a little weird. If it were the Alliance of Free Stars vs. the Ur-Quan hegemony, it'd work fine. There were some ships with obvious other weapons. The Chmmr Avatar (I think, it had
