Update: The Mobile Fortress is being resurected in a new improved version going into beta testing for the latest (Bali Gi compatible) release of the Xperiment Fusion Project (XFP). This new version includes a custom internal fighter docking port.

Yes, this ship will be made available in Cycrow's XSP format for adding to your game regardless of which/any mod you may have once it is released in the Xperiment Fusion Project mod.

Sweet!

Many thanks to you both Observe and Cycrow

BTW if is not asking too much

any thoughts on releasing a customized (not vanilla X2 version) cockpit (and if possible turrets window) for the ship?

The next Fortress version is planned to include all of the above in addition to the new X3 2.0 animated advertising billboards on the side of the ship. However, I have no ETA for these further enhancements since I've recently reduced the intensity of my modeling activites in favor of a more "balanced" lifestyle.

I haven't looked into the billboard thing yet, so I'm not sure where they are. But would it seem even remotely possible to put your own items on the screens?

That in itself, would be a lot of fun.

Heh, I haven't even seen one in-game yet.

The new billboards get their videos from the mov directory. For example, 00002.dat contains videos played on the billboards. You can view these files in Windows Media Player. I haven't looked into the details yet, but it seems quiet feasible to me that custom videos could be presented. This is something I'm now investigating.

sweet mod

Thanks Elwayno! BTW, the Fortress has just completed initial pre-beta test phase for the soon to be released next XFP mod version.

ive put it in a few xenon sectors and its better than any destroyer because of its shield recharge rate and GPPCs.

a problem with it saying ST containers but im not able to load stations on it.

Hi!
I have interesting moment....

I send dock command to my MOBILE FORTRESS (from Navigation menu).
And i can see my own MOBILE FORTRESS in listing station aviable for docking...
If select it - begin fantastic show...

MOBILE FORTRESS tries to dock on most itself... It's bug?

Here is a short video clip of the revamped Fortress soon to be released.

There is a problem with the links and i keep getting "page cannot be displayed" on all but the ddrs link which works fine

. This looks loke a great mod but i cant get it. Its torcher as i need a better flag ship as my m1 sucks

. Even though i am like 3 months after the last post which may be the problem i may just need a fresh link so if some1 could help it would be appreciated.

Try looking around on tensin's site or cycrow's site. It's hosted on either one of those sites or both. I'm sorry I'm on my laptop right now and I don't have the link (being late in the night over here I really can't get myself to look either =/ I almost hyphened over-here, that says something about my state of mind

)

Not that this isn't great or anything, but the ultimate M0 IMO would be a Super Star Destroyer. That would just be awesome to use as a mobile base ship. And yeah, I know it's not exactly original and doesn't fit in with stock X3.
