[MOD] Rise of the Ossian Raider v2.0 and ashipmod

[swatti]

REQUEST: The Reiver "Titurel" super-freighter

Only small mount-weapons but could house ~20 fighters to act as a mini-carrier.

Is there still "universal" cargo-hold like there was in X:R ? If so, let it have such, and bit one too.

It was the ultimate hauler but slow'ish and hard to find. Would come in handy with building projects

[Buzz2005]

do carries have launch tubes like vanilla ones??? as in do they launch fighters faster

[BrummBear02]

do the vanilla tubes actually work? as far as i know only those on stations actually launch ships.

[swatti]

Stations seem to have "tubes" but they launch via regular launchpads. Aaaand once the ~90000 def drones come back the pads are jampacked for 10 min

And no, carriers dont launch any faster.

[Buzz2005]

are you sure, bc there are reports that its much faster with vanilla carriers

[Buzz2005]

I can confirm that in the new beta carriers at least Zeus do launch faster with launch tubes, its very

sadly no tubes on this mod ships

[sco1981]

Poseidon, Albatross and Bayamon have got launchtubes.
With the new patch, these should be used.

[Buzz2005]

hehe and I only got taranis, a new investment is in order

hehe and I only got taranis, a new investment is in order

In the distant future, i will change the ships to create more differences between them and add some tubes on the carriers too.

Any chance to see the X Rebirth Lepton as a destroyer? it will fit very well with the Sucellus. Don't you think?

[cicero111]

First I have to say I absolutely love this mod, already have the Arawn/Taranis with the massive turrets, and with the ai/flagshipo extensions this makes the universe a lot more interresting. Cuurrently I have a Xenon R in my universe with 5 K and 2 I wingmen melting through Teladi sectors and hoping they soon are eating into the core Paranid sectors - it is just beautifull.

Anywho, just bought a Albatross wiht "all the lazors" as a gate swarm crasher/bug swatter. First impression was is the ship flying backwards or is it just me? Seems the other Teladi "look" are jellyfish with strand" thing going on so the Albatross looks a bit strange. The engines attached to the 6 glowing rings on the other side of the dome and direction reversed would fit better perhaps? Yes, pedantic, was just a tiny minor thing that I found a bit weird

[cicero111]

..and have to add, landing on the Albatross docing bay just now watching the 3 rotating rings was majestic, well done

Ojump is converting the Lepton as trader. But i like the idea of a destroyer variant.

Glad you like the Xenon R invations.
And yes, it is you only. I didn't like the mushroom fronts, so i tried to change that with the Albatross Carrier. Someone like it, someone don't. But i am not a fan of the teladi ships in XR and X4.

Yeah, i like to run around the carriers. It gives a great feeling especially in fights.

New Mod (Rise of the Ossian Raider) released.

It has all content of ashipmod and can used together.
It brings a new sector with a new faction, which is enemy to all factions but HOP.
Many bugfixes and adjustments to the ships.
More at the detail page.

This is a whole new mod which includes all features of ashipmod also.

Oh I noticed after doing some reading.
I understand this will near certainly conflict with Variety & Rebalance Overhaul
and DeadAir Gate Overhaul (which reworks the entire sector list and map of the universe.)

I really would love compatibility with them both.
So I kinda took it upon myself to let them all know including you now that you should all have a chat see what can be done.
The first is probably arguably the best ship balance mod available as of now it would of no issue prior version 1.4 but they added the battle ships mod from nexus balanced into the main project and that may or likely will confilict with flagships and that is not to account for the entirely new faction in this latest instalment but it would be a nice thing to see two XL types to the mix and the new faction added by this balanced out properly by the Faction Fixes mod and VRO to see fleets using battleships and capital ships (flagship) would be nicer naming scheme anyway to see them as Capital Ships.


The latter is probably the best universe replacement around so far, I had some plans to eventually tac on an unlockable wormhole of sorts to tie it into an expansion which leads too a remake of X3:AP Galaxy+ Sectors, my concept for it would be to re-design X3's sectors around a time into X4's current timeline. However, I will be needing the SPLIT expansion DLC before I can really make much headway on that project.

Sweet! If it's possible to have new factions with dynamic relations and what-not, would corporation-like factions be also technically viable?

One thing I think X4 would benefit greatly from are smaller (player-sized) groups against whom to compete early on, ideally with their own major-faction alignments - or lack of - and area of expertise (mining/trading/combat/multi-role) for character. The idea of a turf war is so damn appealing

Could that be too taxing on performance? XD

Yeah, i talked to both mod authors already.
We will see what kind of compatibility is possible.

It is indeed possible, big and small factions/corporations. But yeah, more factions will hit the performance a bit i think. It depends how much jobs they have.
But Mysterial or mewosmith could tell more about this.
