[Video] X3TC - The White Star Movie

I have made a video in the X3 universe showing of my favorite sci-fi ship the White Star (aXeL_UK). The video will be available in different format.

Took some hours to put it together, so hopefully you will enjoy it some

This is a repost since I initially posted this in the wrong forum :)

I think I'm a little bit in love with you!


Wow, where is that mod and is there more where that came from?!? Great work!

Some more questions:
What class of ship did you set it up as (my guess would be M6 although it would be a very overpowered m6 as in the TV series it was overpowered for its class)?
What where the weapons you loaded it with (I'm still new to the game so dont recognise them all yet!)?
How easy was the model to make and are you thinking about making a total conversion?

Not really using a mod, just added the white star made by aXeL_UK. Or, the game gets tagged as modified, but all the "mod" does is add the white star.

aXeL_UK white star can be found here : http://forum.egosoft.com/viewtopic.php?t=229125

There is currently a B5 total conversion mod in progress : http://b5.hc-gamer.de/

Very well done! That was a fantastic video.

I liked the caption "Protector of the Federation" that flashed up after the first skirmish with the Mambas. Was that fight rank promotion part of your design script or was it pure coincidence? It was perfectly timed.

Also, I might be wrong, but I think the Split capital ship was upside down in a lot of the initial fly overs. But that's good too, b/c it illustrates just how barbaric those Split are. They can't tell how to fly right-side-up. :P

Congrats on a fine battle won (and terrific cinematic documentation). Are there any models of Shadow ships that you can use in your next video?

First seeing as Babylon 5 is my fav sci-fi show you have already won me over, second that was brilliant stuff!

Congrats on a great video.
I personally cant wait to get my grubby hands on the B5 TC to re-create some epic b5 battles :)

Nice work Z, made me look at the ship in a very different way. My office kept asking me for a video of the ship but I never got around to it and I wouldn't have done anywhere near as good a job as you did!

Now I'm going to pop the 1080P ver. onto USB and annoy the team at work.

Thanks again. Think there'll have to be an honourable mention in my next release following TC XTM.

Thanks aXeL, glad you liked it. The White Star truly is a beuty and i must say i am impressed with the way you have made her look in X3.

Currently have a couple of other movie projects on hold. This one was mainly done to experiment abit with the movie capture possibilities in X3. Atm i am writing a script for a "short story" in the normal X3TC universe.

Like you I am really looking forward to the B5 mod as i wanne use those ships to create a proper B5 movie.

That was really great, esp in hi-def,
also really enjoyed the B5 music score.

Got some good B5-like White Star moves in there,
looks like you could fill a reasonably believable mini-story line,
good luck with the project !

Very nice especially for a ship once described as a plucked chicken an image I could never quite shake.

I have a fondness for Minbari Cruisers myself they always looked so graceful. Reminded me of tropical angel fish.

Of course the Whitestar was I believe a bit Minbari and a bit Vorlon.
