[req] new ship Nyx from eve online

Post by spookyest »

Hi there I just started adding scripts to my game and noticed that pol are saying about adding new ships. I was just wondering if it was poss from someone to look into creating the carrier Nyx from the game EvE Online, this is by far the best looking ship I have come across.

Cheers

Edit: was just thinking that in EvE the nyx acted as a mothership so for another Idea it could even be a mini Phq, of course you wouldn't be able to create as much there but maybe be able to choose certain types of ships to build

er..
If you want an eve ship in your game, you have to either a) do it yourself and NOT share it
or b) send a mail off to CCP and ask for permissions to use their ships. This was done with HW2 (eve mod for hw2 at least). The catch is, the mod team working on hw2 were not allowed an open beta, just a final product, assuming CCP approved it.

However...

Get triexporter, and you should be able to extract the models with that. from there, you can get it to the x3 format using a converter of some sort, and then do the fun turret stuff...

the problem is I'm not very technical so wouldn't know how to convert or even add it. How about if it wasn't the same just similar styling would that be allowed?

It's just that there isn't any of the cap ships that I think really stand out looks wise

OR....you could build the ship and texture it yourself in Max.

If you remake it yourself than yes, its allowed. However, the ships of eve have like hundreds of thousands of polys, and are hard to really make by oneself... Especially if you havent done anything of the sort before.

Converting it is the best idea here, but it means you cant distribute it really.
There are guides, i know for x3r at least (they should be very similar), that will walk you through putting it into x3tc.

The biggest problem is converting it from ccp's format into x3tc's format, but once youve done that, the rest should be rather easy

Hi,

i've made a variant of the Nyx battleship. Variant because i wanted to avoid any copyright issues and i only had some bad angled pictures of the Nyx(still don't know what the engine looks like -.-).

This is one of many ships that will be integrated into next release of TGG's MG Mod: http://forum.egosoft.com/viewtopic.php?t=265490

We may localise it once we have near bug free version of the mod.

Hey Hey well i also wish an EVE Online ship, and screw CCP if they have something to say about it, i pay to play EVE and if not for us who paid their servers would shut down in a month, anyways i wish to have The Amarr Battleship Abaddon in x3 Terran Conflict and up to its real size ofcourse witch is apparantly between 800-1000 metres (real size can be found on forum),
the appropriate engine effects and the appropriate body textures would look really awesome if that is possible,

Please Add it in for me :)

I'm curious if the folks behind all these ship demands realize the amount of work required in designing and implementing ships.

be curious no longer
i am fully aware of it, i used to design 3D models myself and i know its not easy, i would do it myself but i cant afford the program needed,
just think of it as a long term hobby or something to keep you busy.
anyways if not want to make it fine, this is why we request so we can get a yes or no
