It's in my mailbox and I'm downloading all 3.5 Mb right now. I have ADSL but the ISP only has low bandwidth channels for the email servers.
Jeez! that a lot of mb for such a little ship! :p
Hope all of it gets here in one piece :p

"engine functions" I was refering to the game engine.

Getting knocked around is a lot worse in MP than SP (because the bolts bigger and heavier). If you ever flew the "Pioneer" ship in MP you would see/know what I mean.
Of course it is a question of balancing too. Bolts vs. armor vs. mass vs. ship acceleration/speed ect.

Ahh, it finally got here: zip with 3.011 mb, unzipped 16.5 mb (actually 17.3) seems to be ok. Thats going to be a big mod!
I'll give it a shot first chance I get tommorow, gotta sleep now.

I would however like to link the flares to the throttle animation, if Shane would be kind enough to tell to me how.

I wouldn't be much help there. I've never done this. For the Terrapin I just used the existing thrust animation from the Puffin and cloned two extra flares, then moved everything about.

Might be best to take avatar elements from something that's near what you're looking for (like the Storm Petrel) and then modify.

And, if you get it figured out, please post the info. :) The Sim and Subsim document is a little confusing in this area.

Good Work Second_Chance! It went into the MP game with no problems at all using the avatar, setupscene and collision hull you sent with the second mail

Here are a couple of shots to click on:

Darth V. checks out casino station looking for a drink

He then inspects the local military. Who's in command of this Ship?

And continues on to inspect a cargo pod stash

before taking a Taxi over to the CMC Depot

I'm working on the flight model now and setting up the weapons.
(anyone remember which EOC weapon bolt was green?)

It is a little bit wierd flying in complete silence. Can you set up sound channels for it?

These lil' buggers didn't have any missiles did they?
What about decoys?

Sniper cannon bolts are green.

Damn, that thing's small. I wonder why it translated into Multiplayer but Spiff would not? Obviously points to a problem with my model and not a 'single player to multiplayer' issue.

@MajorTom - LOL! I couldn't stop laughing my ass off. Those shots are great! But the captions are pure gold! Brilliant! I'm so glad the model is working well for you. To be honest, I thought the same thing about the sound. I thought it at about the same time I went "Oh crap! I forgot the sound!"[:0] I'll get that fixed up for you right away. And about the decoys, sure, just give me a list of hardpoints you want me to add and I'll get them in there along with the engine sounds. Glad you like it. :D

btw - those are the normal size textures you have, not the huge working textures.

@Shane - Sure, I'll definitely post if I figure it out. How do you like the ship?

*edit*

Damn, that thing's small.

Bet you wouldn't say that if it fell on you. :p:D
