Let's see, I can't really remember the names of the cap ships I'd like to see, but I'll do some digging in the next day or so. Off the top of my head, I liked the Ranger class carrier from the wc games, and the ships from privateer, such as the Tarsus, the one that looked similar to the Millenium Falcon, and the tank-like one, of and the Drayman freighter, too. Then there's the TCS Concordia, or the Murphy-class destroyer, also from wc. FS ships...the names of the ship classes escape me right now, but I'm sure members of this forum can chime in and help pretty quickly. I liked the Terran destroyers (Hercules? maybe) and the big carriers.

Oh and there is a site of starship size comparisons
( www.merzo.net/index.html ).

Unfortunately, they seem mostly interested in vessels from movies and TV shows, and not much in those appearing in computer games. Oh well.

That's actually on of my favorite sites, so I'll plug it a little.

This site has reasonably accurate size representations of virtually every ship ever seen in movies or television. It also includes well known real objects to help compare scale. And the best part? You can click and drag all the pictures (with transparent backgrounds) to rearrange them on the page. A truly awsome work. I highly recommend a visit.

If anybody wants to start throwing out some names I'll work up some comparison pics.

Heh, The Corp Interceptors are the same size as the 'location points' in the Intro Video (which was auesome). They were also a different model, They had blue thrusters, and the cockpit was further back.
It seems Mass scaled down the size of thier interceptors, and did not tell the modelers at Partical Systems!

And yes, i would very much like to have a fixed vesion. chears!

I meant from Wing Commander and Freespace, but which ships from aliens specifically?

And here's the repaired large_corp_interceptor.lws.

I hope you like it. It looks way better than the original.
