I do see a TShips item when viewing the Types folder through X3 Editor.

I may have to wait until the first official release version when the Venator is made to work alongside other installs.

Yes, it is a problem child as far as getting it into the game. I tried converting it to a .spk file and upload it with Cycrow's Plugin Manager but no such luck appearing in game. Hopefully an .spk version will be created so the ship can be installed with other mods.

So far I have the SSD, ISD and the Corellian Corvette installed within the X3 -Time Of The Truth Mod using Cycrow's Plugin Manager with no problems.

All is gone quiet.... Hmm - what's the status?

AgentX250 · Post by **AgentX250** » Fri, 11. Feb 11, 08:04

work is still being done. Anubitus has some personal stuff to attend to so there will be a slow down in progress.

not much is left to work on though so sit tight a bit longer and you shall be rewarded

hi guys, im very sorry for the slow progress but it is beyond my will.. (or how do you say that..

)

my personal life is a bit full atm and i can barely turn on my pc these days.. let alone actually work on anything..

the good news is, the hangar shields are there.. i have tried two different textures and i would like you guys to pick the one you like..

thanks to Observe for permission to use his textures..

the first one is a bleuish transparant texture with a glow..

the second is also bleuish and transparant but this one has no glow to it..

tell me wich you like most..

besides this, there is a little turretwork, but nothing big so all should be ready by the end of the week..

friendly greetings..

Anu

I'd like a mixture of both. Make the second one more like a dark blue, and add a little bit more glow. Then it's perfect I think...

reason why i am using someone elses texture is because i cant make textures myself yet..

so that is not an option yet striker.. unless you can provide me with a texture you where describing it is going to be one of these two..

maybe later, when i have mastered the art of texture creating, there will be a update with more canon textures, but for now this is it..

i need more votes ppl.. c'mon.. when the decision is made, dont come complaining..

I like the second one more, isn't hurting the eyes so much

Then I'd like the second one, but in blue. You could also send the texture to me and I'll change its color. That's no problem

second one

AgentX250 · Post by **AgentX250** » Thu, 17. Feb 11, 15:53

"beyond my control" is how its said

i must also pick the second pic, the first would be perfect if the glow wasnt so blinding.

HogMaster · Post by **HogMaster** » Fri, 18. Feb 11, 01:07

Second one please.

Anubitus · Post by **Anubitus** » Sat, 19. Feb 11, 01:37

can t download it

Edit:
Ok now it s working

DL doesn't work for me. It always says: 'The file you are trying to access is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later.'

Edit: I was lucky, now I got it.
But I recommend to use another file hoster than Megaupload, as at Megaupload it is only luck if you get a working download.
I clicked on the download button, accepted the download and then reloaded the megaupload-page. And it says: 'The file you are trying to access is...'

So better use another file hoster.

Great work, guys! I love your Venator and the other ships!

Are you going to make some more ships? If so, how about making this one?

http://www.jedipedia.de/wiki/index.php/ ... leitschiff

I'd love to see that ship in X3TC. Unfortunately, i don't know the english name of it, and by translating the german word Geleitschiff (which means something like convoy ship), i couldn't find it. There's a pic of the ship on the page. It's from the Gamcube Game Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike.
Here's a (very short :-/ ) video of the ship:

It appears in 1:05. Also, the TIE-Hunter (appears in the video, too) would be a great addition to any SW mod

@ maxurugi
