Nice. I think that Terran Bar would be nice for ready room. Well that's just my opinion anyway

Cant wait until 2.50 is out public so I can start using your mod again(don't want to use mods when im testing beta).

Another thing what bothers me too much is my 50 marines. Where are they packed in the Skunk? I put them on the deck for little stretching and got FPS drop from 35 to 14. Sadly I have to comment them out for the better future.

This looks great, can't wait to have a play with this when you finished it

Pity about those marines tho, they looked good in that pic, but a frame rate drop that severe I don't blame you for commenting them out.

I was recently traveling with my Taranis, and just happy to finally have a bridge.
Since shadows, if enabled, flicker and cause very disturbing effects, I have all shadows disabled but the bridge looks a bit "sterile" if you disable shadow effects. So I wonder if it would be possible to do something though to have shadows, but no flickering when you change your line of sight.

But I fear that it belongs alone to Egosoft to remedy this situation, since the same problem occurs also in the cockpit of the Skunk, but due to the small and very narrow cockpit its not so drastically noticeable.

You bastard *looking at you with an angry face*
It is fantastic and absolutly brilliant! I have a job, you know!? I have a private life!!! I have people to care for!!!!
And now there are even NPCs WALKING(!) around!?

No but seriously it is really brilliant. I love it very much!

Sadly I got a huuuuuge performance drop on my newly built PC (I got a few days ago) when looking into the garage area with all those NPCs around

@Tamina - what FPS drop do you get? How much FPS on the bridge and how much looking at the garage?

Graphic settings everything on the max and I have 35 FPS on the bridge, around 23 FPS in the garage and 14 FPS with these guys (I miss them a lot):

Just did a quick test, in the hanger on landing I get a micro pause while everything draws, then my fps sits between 20-35. (average about 29) - going to the bridge, it stays the same.
On the bridge around 20 to 30 panning around everywhere (average around 27) even looking towards the hanger..
Heading back to the hanger down the stairs it drops for a second to around 17, but once I enter the hanger it goes back to 20 to 35 (average about 29)..
So actually I get better frame rates in the hanger than on the bridge.

So no problems for me..

Thank you again

EDIT: I just noticed the prisoners on the hanger deck surrounded by guards

- amazing work.....

Truly amazing, and no noticeable fps problems. ... The only thing that bothers me is that the lift can't be used to enter the hanger!

Yea, I was thinking the same thing, I was half expecting to be transported to the bottom of the hanger so I could wander around and then eventually board the skunk..

Not that I am complaining with what we got tho, we are extremely lucky to have someone as talented as Litauen that can make our wishes come true

@Tamina - what FPS drop do you get? How much FPS on the bridge and how much looking at the garage?

I am playing the exact same situation as in this video on my crappy laptop

Tamina wrote: Capitalshipbridges in Action in Action ("little" fight is ongoing in the background)

So there is already lots of fighter and capital action going on around me!
To be exact 2x Arawn with 25x fighters against 3x Taranis + 1x Heavy Sul with 15x fighters (+ all the other standard stuff in a zone like a couple of solar stations and other caps and civilians...).
> Keeping this in mind, landed on the capital ship, I get around a constant of +20FPS and when looking down to all those people in the hangar area it changes to <1 for a couple of seconds and I can't move or do anything at this time and shortly after it is about 6-7FPS.

It is okay in calm areas though, slight non-bothering FPS drop.

I just tested the new version with the ready room and the hangar bay and have to say: Simply incredible. This is exactly as I had imagined. Thank you for this mod and thanks for the hard work.

Just threw up a new video showing off several mods (this one included)

http://youtu.be/jOMArNRd0Ok

So if you are wondering what this mod looks like, go have a look...

Sorry about the quality, you tube decided to do something to it and I do not know how to fix it

Peter Hull · Post by **Peter Hull** » Tue, 7. Oct 14, 21:38

@Litauen
found a small problem (sorry), Just capped a freighter, landed to pick up my Marine Officer and found her occupying the same seat as an npc in the captains room. Looks quite funny actually but needs an over 18 rating!

Litauen · Post by **Litauen** » Tue, 7. Oct 14, 22:00

@Peter Hull - Thank you, should be fixed with v1.41

v1.41 Fix for active NPCs locations

@Litauen
Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I found a slight problem with the new hanger and bridge...
It tried to put the hanger and bridge on my construction vessel, I ended up falling through the ship over and over again...

methinks the construction vessel is a little too small to take the mod
