Hey Everyone! 
I'm relatively new to EVE online, and i must say that i normally dont play games for pretty long time before i get bored, but EVE is holding me and keeps amazing me. So my idea is to make an EVE inspired casemod as an tribute to this amazing game. 
Well, let's get to the questions. - First of all i would like to know what peoples opinion on making an EVE casemod is. - Secondly i am asking someone that own's an Augoror, either want to take pictures from almost every imagenary angle of the ship or maybe a "rich" person would like to sponsor an augoror for me, so i can look at it my self. 
concerning the sponsoring of an Augoror, please contact me (Akularen) in-game. 
NB: I'm also very interested in constructive idea's (anything from entire 3D-model's, to sktechs' and just ideas) related to the casemod. 
Regards Rasmus

Edited by: Rebal 88 on 20/06/2008 14:52:44 Edited by: Rebal 88 on 20/06/2008 14:52:19 I think you should go for it, It would be a great idea. I think a little while back i saw some company do cases with eve graphics on them, ill see if i can find them.
Edit- Found the page, Linkage Really awesome graphics on the cases, but i dont think I would pay 300$ for a case.. well... idk.. lol I wish there was a template of each races emblem. I would so buy one of those to paint on my case and possibly other things.

i think so aswell, and i haven't actuallt seen any "real" EVE casemods done?
the cases that you're talking about might be the commodore cases? - Link: http://www.eve-online.com/offer/commodore/  Noob (2 mil SP) Searching friendly, social and teamplaying corp. drop a mail in-game to Akularen if interested. ;) |

I've always thought the hull of the Obelisk would make a cool case. It even has drive trays pre-marked.

hmm.. haven't thought of that yet, think i'll have a closer look at it? - thanks for the input 
so far my modding plans are not to make a replica of one of the EVE ships, i'm only wanting a sample/pics of the interesting ships to get inspired by them.

The Abaddon probably mods into a case relatively easy aswell, the main hull has the right shape. The hardest part there would probably be the spine and prow.

i think you're right, but as i said i'm not going for a ship replica.. i'm just using the ships so i can get some inspiration from them. - but thanks for the input, i really appreciate your ideas, and suggestions.

Well, for inspiration, i'd say look at the following ships; Bestower, Obelisk, Fenrir(spelling might be off?), Rokh, abaddon, Dominix and Megathron to be honest.

thanks! - i find especially the Rokh and Fenrir exiting, but i can't find any good pics of these ships
anyone that has a Rokh/Fenrir, who might take a few pics?  Noob (2 mil SP) Searching friendly, social and teamplaying corp. drop a mail in-game to Akularen if interested. ;) |

or just something based around the line of pirate ships would be cool.
but I'd say in the end ammar would be pretty sweet, use real gold!
a vexor could work...
Also you could do some INSANE modding and make it a long flat motherboard case and make it the ammar industal ship :P

Are you gonna pay for the gold? ^^ - if you look at the amarr ships, it seems to me as they are chrome/polished metal and somekind of yellow/sand color?
thanks for posting that link! - you just saved my day. ;)
Well.. Back to the actual modding plans. I've been thinking of putting watercooling in it, so i have to decide a color for the coolant, as i think plain water is a bit... boring?

Well, plenty of dyes available for cooling, either UV-reactive (meaning you'll need blacklights in the case to get the most out of them) or conventional dyed coolants. Most coolants tend to have very intense colours though, so they'll be bright compared to the somewhat muted colours an EVE ship hull normally has.

i know, i think i saw a pair of UV CCFL's for a pretty good price at the local computer store 
concerning the coolants, i have been thinking about the same.. but shouldn't you be able to damp the colour of the coolant? - by mixing the coolant a bit thinner than normal, or maybe by mixing two different additives? 
Originally by: Lilan Kahn charon
and what colour is that? 
But if i have to decide a colour/colour-scheme, then what colours should it be, for an Amarr mod, except of the normal Amarr colours (gold, chrome)? - I was thinking of yellow?

Soft desert sand yellows/browns probably, fairly pastel-ish colours, or those colours in a metal-flake version. (since most Amarr ships still have a metallic sheen)

Well, guess it's time for a small update on my design progress? 
So, yesterday i was drawing a quick sketch of how i think i want the case to look like. So tonight i'm going to start on the sketchUp model and see what interesting things might come out of that. 
so far i've decided: - it gonna be an Amarr mod primarily inspired by the Augoror. (ofcourse it's gonna be way cooler than that ol' bucket of a ship ). - it's gonna be watercooled. - the colours are going to be Amarrish ( if you can say that?). - it's gonna be build around a completely stripped old ATX case of mine (dunno if it's a full tower or just midi-tower?).
what do you think about that?

Edited by: Celric Gunsiri on 23/06/2008 03:32:25 i found a relativily cheap but high quality case by Thermaltake called SopranoRS, I got mine for $60 (in US online). Think it would be an easy case to slap some decals on for PC's. Theres a model with a plastic see-through window with extra fan options and one that doesnt. Would be cool to see someone strip the case and probably change the color and slap some nice decals on it. oh boy... |

This is just a thought for a way to get 'engines' on it Like This Case
Also the Navitas, Bantam would also make good starters,
The navitas you can use just the front part as a design and the fan at the bottom.
the bantom would have to do without the wings but thats some food for thought

well.. i've got an idea with the Sigil concerning casefeets - but atm i don't have the money for it.
so i would REALLY appreciate if someone with more cash than me, want to sponsor it. (just mail me in-game if interested - thanks.) Signature: Noob (2 mil SP) Searching friendly, social and teamplaying corp. drop a mail in-game to Akularen if interested. ;) |
