Edited by: Chade Malloy on 12/05/2004 17:41:13 Edited by: Chade Malloy on 05/05/2004 01:48:00 Well, i remember a certain Dev-chat, not long ago, where the words "Dreadnoughts" and "super-battleships" appeared.
I think i¦m not alone with my opinion, that only 2 different Battleships per race in our current developed state of the game are a bit few...and i am eager to get something new between my greedy fingers.
As we all know, our brave DEVs are currently busy with coding for shiva and the next castor patch, so maybe they simply don¦t have the time to make new models for ships, textures, and so on at the moment. But nevertheless, i want a Dreadnought in the game asap , alone for the name .
Why not help the DEVs and CCP by providing Models or textures, or at least design ideas about new ships? I know that among the thousands of players there must be someone who knows about modelling, texturing, etc...
Why not have a modding contest for the upcoming Dreadnoughts, or Battlecruisers, or whatever you can think of to fly through the eve-universe? The coolest, best designed, best looking ship which wins, could actually be put in the game, as a persisting monument of a modellers dream 
I for myself had this vision of a gallente Dreadnought, called "Hyperion" class. It¦s only a model atm, i¦m still working on the textures...
- check it out! -
edit: UPDATE: have a new ship, check it out:
the "Morningstar"

Edited by: BlackMail on 05/05/2004 01:52:34 Awesome idea...although I don't know how easy/hard it would be to implement something modeled from an external source other than that made by the devs....but I'm definitely not a coder 
The ship looks awesome Chade...keep it up and who knows....maybe we will see it in game

Chade, Id love to help out, but I have not been able to get the hang of CG programs such as maya, and unreal engine. But, I can draw, and maybe you coulde model it after my drawing which will be ugly cause im not that good. It will how ever be for the amarr race sine I happen to like amarrians and the BS's. But yeah, you never know, maybe one of us in the world of eve will have there modles brought to life by the devs.  "The Tallest Person, Is The Last One Standing!" |

Looks closer to a cadari design, asymetrical shape typical of caldari designs.
I have the body of a supermodel. I just can't remember where I left it... |

Very nice model, seems to fit with Gallente design and with a nice texture I think would make a fine addition...
That said I don't see the Dev's taking any outsider artwork / models....though its good to dream.

Wow, nice model Chade. I don't think it fits 100% with the Gallente style but it's still very nice. If I were you I would make it a bit thicker, it looks too slim to be Gallente IMO.
BTW, what program did you use to create that model? Also how did you go about makeing it?

Very good work, even if Devs cant implement it from an external source they could still get a few ideas on how players would like them to look. ------------------------------------------

Heh, not a bad idea. However the bottleneck is not the graphical models, we need to change the ship UI to accomodate the Dreadnoughts.
I'll be following this thread, if there are more people interested in participating (and show their draft models) we might look at doing a formal contest. _____________________________ I say hey sky, s'other say I won say, I pray to J I get the same ol' same ol. |

I havent modeled a spaceship since what, 3dsmax 1.2 :)

Nice model. I would like to see a Dreadnought model based off a Thorax model (for Gallente). Sleek looking and deadly.

I hope we're going to have proper models with the new ship classes and not what they did with interceptors. Re-skinning and adding a couple of bits of muck from your prefabs directory does not make it a new ship, it just makes them look rushed and smacks of laziness. Even though at heart they're just a +2 hat instead of a +1 hat, new models would be nice.

Whow, i have drawed the attention of the devs *rushes back to drawing board*
Btw thx for all the feedback guys!
The model was made with caligaris trueSpace 6, imho the best and easiest-to-use modelling and animation program i know. ( - caligari.com )

I guess Im out unless I can draw something really spectacular and get Chade to model it in 3D format. Cause I sure don't have the experience I would need to use any type of 3D modeling program. But hey, maybe I can think of something that would look a little decent for the amarr class ships. YES more than 8 slots is gonna be sweet, if only the DEV's decide to implement them into the newer ships coming out in Shiva and later patches. Oh well, cya all in game and talk you you in corp chat Loxy Rider and Chade. "The Tallest Person, Is The Last One Standing!" |
