awwww.... that is a lot more complex and time consuming...
I think that I'll redo it with bigger ships and a white background. (still less time consuming than modifiying older images)
(the terran ships have some small problems so they will be a special case...)
stay tuned for further updates.

Phoenix and Condor in addition to their normal destroyer armaments also have very big cargo bays, biggest in the whole class.
That's how Teladi work, even destroyer has to be able to double as a freighter.
I remember in Reunion one of them could even build stations, only one ship like that in the whole class. It was changed in TC though.

why cant you dock like m6s and some of the smller m7s into that beast of a ship that is the phoenix ?!
also, anyone else think that the designers got bored of designing ATF ships? look at the similarities between odin and valhalla, cut the odin down the middle and the replicate it, space it all out and fill the gaps in withsome tubes and you have the vallhalla haha

because Egosoft said that no M7/M6 can dock to other ships.
I don't agree on the M6, but M7 are better in space than docked imho.
no other rational explanation available...
for Valhalla... yeah, it is the uglier ship of the game files (because, thanks god, it is not in game)
and for Dev's lazynes... please don't even talk about that... I'm doing a mod and I have to wrestle all the time with "their quick solutions" and other stupid things never fixed even if that was to correct a simple number (like the Ghoul missile).

Have you continued to modify the ship pictures so its more printer friendly?

I'm waiting that exogenesis makes some improvements to his program, to let me shot images with bigger ships, a white background and decent lighting (to have more image quality and still being printable).
Reworking the old images is long and difficult, and the final result is patchy at best. Not worth it.
when I'll redo it it will be good, but for now I don't have the right instruments.

For the DDRS and now DDTC mods we've done some printable size comparisons as well, but not with the systematic professionalism you've displayed!.
The size contrasts between M6 and M7 class ships is the most shocking, imo, though size differences within the same classes can be pretty surprising as well.
For DDTC mod ships (70 and counting!) I've done my best to give our ships specs commensurate with their actual in-game displacement volumes. So while there are still some pretty odd discrepancies between vanilla ships and the specs their sizes would suggest, our own ships are pretty well scaled in that regard.

I know... to have better resolution I need to have a shot on bigger ships in Model Viewer, and that is impossible until exogenesis upgrades the program.sferum wrote:It's just a pity that the resolution is so low
I'm waiting the update to make a wallpaper-ish comparison (with white background).
@DeadlyDarkness: obvious it is so small! it is a Light Destroyer...

No, but you better use a gateless jump mod, because the Valhalla is bigger than a gate. But it is worth it because it has external docking clamps, which is badass (yay, it can dock M6/TS/TP!), and a 60 fighter hanger capacity.
However, it makes the Teladi Phoenix look positively lithe.

UPDATE!!! Gates Added to comparison. (mild spoilers)
FIX!!!! that wicked Sky Drive was RESIZING MY IMAGES. Changed host to imageshack.
@all those who want a wallpaper: go harass Exogenesis until its program isn't updated to include the things I proposed i cannot make a cool wallpaper.
or suggest me another tool.

Whoa! Nice picture. I agree, the Valhalla looks like a pretty sweet ride. It would be totally awesome if those side nacelles could retract or fold inward to make it slim enough to fit through gates.
Also, where can I find that Terran jumpgate? I thought maybe it was the Asteroid Belt gate, and I hadn't noticed, but there's just a regular old "Commonwealth" gate there.
