You could create a model based on the MST-Z Scorpion. When this ship was first released, the premise was that it was a combination of Mantis and Human designs. Since then, the developers have abandoned that creative opportunity for lower systems, focusing only on Raven-class ships or recycled models.

For example, a true hybrid Gemini ship (not like the Claw) composed of the following elements: Aggro Bomb, Stun Dome, Repair Field, ThermoBlast.

Its design could be a combination of the Marauder Mantis and the GC-3 Fusion Engineer. :mrgreen:
That sounds like a fun idea, I can give it a go. I am yet to try anything vaguely Mantis-inspired so that could be an interesting new challenge for me.

I would be highly envious if he really has 4 hands to make use of :D
I do slam my forehead into my keyboard when Blender crashes with unsaved progress, so maybe that counts as a third hand at least.

Just looked into my config, seems that 5.x auto save is enabled by default. :eek:
yes it is enabled by default, but on macos atleast the save directory for these backups is an empty string, so the auto save fails silently, on windows its in %TEMP% or %APPDATA% somewhere.

so basically
try {
save_temp()
}
catch(DirectoryNotFoundException ex) {
/* notify user that backup can not be saved? hm.. nah ..*/
}


i found out the hard way xd

Hey all, I just put my 2 cents on this cool thread with this (you can find amazing TC ship design made by StickManTwit (I've put an arrow in case you wonder where is it :sweatgrinning:):

The idea was so showcase the final boss of Erebos (which I'll not spoil the name if you haven't made to that point) that got destroyed and has crashed on a planet in another star system. The pilot discovers the wreckage with his super ship. I'll also do this in a vertical format (more like a poster). If you want the high-res image you can send me a message. (it's about 5760x3240).

Ps: I'll make a video soon for a breakdown. And of course, no AI :)

WIP shot of my own take on the RDX design language. It's a lot more straightforward than some of the newer designs, in the vein of the first few RDX ships (01 through 06).

RDX-20 Cobalt Falcon

"'Controlled chaos' is the Falcon's motto; excelling at both tactical movement during combat encounters as well as sporting an array of support equipment for squadmates, Cobalt Falcon customers are widely known to be favourites across combat fleets of all kinds across the galaxy."

Here's my take on a Raven ship, lots of winglets and hard edges, I prefer having the glass-dome cockpits nearer to the front so designed around that idea primarily.

@Eredin since you asked how it looks textured :)

Man, such a cool design!
I think the glow is a bit too much for a Raven ship though, but the model looks very good!

Based on the description I would give it these items:

That should result in approx. 95 AI / 1050 speed (slightly faster than Hunter)

The ship could be a teamfight support with both mass control and wide range support, and although fragile it is swift enough to evade most threats.

Let me know what you think :D

Ancient designs and blaster effects are clearly inferior to normal ones, specially golden blaster trails and sounds.
Plus ancient blaster trails are all the same instead golden blaster were different from system to system.
I missed the old days where golden blasters and rockets populated the universe.

StickManTwit's designs are refreshing to see, not only because the ships are incredibly gorgeous, but because he decided to pair them with golden weapons, making them much slicker and refined.
