Mini Death Star?!?!....I am betting you mean the torpedo sphere. I don't think that EvilleJedi was planning on adding a Death Star. Of course, once he implements the smaller ship scale, maybe it would be more feasible. Still, you can't actually destroy planets = so what's the point of having one!
Fair enough! It might only take 20 minutes to learn how to text ship stats and abilities. But learning how to make maps took me a few days of effort....and I never got anywhere trying to figure out all the ins and outs on models...well, I mean ship models.

I loved that series. But I thought the series ended once the Americans discovered faster than light drives and visited the Aliens homeplanet?!?
LOL!
Wasn't flaming, just trying to nudge you into learning how to mod for yourself. The coding and maps are actually pretty easy to learn. However, models are by far the hardest part to learn (and get software for). Perhaps you should request volunteers for a team effort where you'll contribute the work on the maps and stats/abilities, while another could do the actual models. An offer to work together will increase your chances in finding fellow modders i
Hi Third, your generosity knows no bounds! How's things budddy?
Hehe, do these requests for modder slaves ever work? "Hi, I'm looking for someone to spend a lot of time doing work for me. I want them to do the models for me AND I want them to also make the entire mod according to my exacting specs. Of course, I am likely to be the only one interested in the mod I envision. Once you are done, you willl be reward with the knowledge that I am pleased with your work." Just a suggestion, you might
EvilleJedi deserves the credit there. Him and I talked about it as an option many months ago before I suffered Sins burnout. In fact, it is only the quality of this mod that keeps bringing me back [e digicons]:dur:[/e]
Perfection!
Hi EvilleJedi. Just so I understand, you are considering making the ship scales smaller WHILE increasing the size of gravity wells....but only up to the point where camera panning/control starts to become an issue. So gravity wells would be bigger than stock, but smaller than the point where they get awkward. Does that about sum it up? If so, then that should be pretty darn cool.
Smaller ships should also mean smaller fighters/bombers = low poly counts for them will be even less noticable. Hmmm, another bonus effect of smaller ships is that planet:ship scales will be more realistic and epic.
As far as scaling issues go, have you considered making the ships smaller instead of making the gravity wells bigger? Would that not result in the desired effect? Just a suggestion.
Evaders99, is it possible you guys could make an Ewok/Jar Jar torture game similar to the SAW movies? I'd pay good money for that.
Impressive Ship List!
I don't remember the Missile Boats have multiple turrets. It was just a single canon.
That makes plenty of sense.
Hehe, thirded. In my defense, I tried to get the discussion onto real life issues instead of Star Wars versus Star Trek.
Aw man, that's easy. The Badger would eat the Platypus = instant win...and a free meal.
Well, the Empire targetting tech does seem less capable than Star Trek tech. That tactically puts them in a bad spot. If it weren't for the fact that Imperial shields outmatched Federation weapons by such a huge extent, the Empire would be toast in small tactical engagements. Of course strategically, the Empire wins every time. It can quickly jump from system to system and totally destroy Federation planets/colonies. The sheer strength of their shields ca
So true!
Oh, here is something I wanted to ask you guys. Many of you have likely read about our new Super Collider and the fears some people have about it creating micro black holes. The physisists are convinced that there is nothing to fear as Cosmic and Solar particles collide all the time and we are still here. So, do you guys think that the infinitely small chance we destroy ourselves is worth the risk of using the collider to increase our understanding and control over our Uni
Okay, the forum is acting up again. Double posts and can't edit them.
Hehe, best to turn off the brain and look at the pretty ships and explosions. Still, sometimes I like to look at what is possible versus probably impossible versus almost certainly impossible. As for energy sources, we can (and do) presently use antimatter (take that Star Trek!)....it just is insanely expensive to make and contain. Maybe our new Super Collider will help advance our understanding (and control) of physics. Who knows, may

Sigh, I've always thought that Star Wars was cool because they lacked the BS non-science technobable that Star Trek falls for. Comon guys, let's just stick with Imperial conquest, cool weapons/ships and mass destruction, and leave the technobable for the Trekkies. Hehe, I've always loved the Star Wars tech versus Star Trek tech discussions. People get so rabid about 'who is tougher'. The problem that the Trekkies forget is that their precious Star Fleet is a pol
