for all you freespace 2 fans: a hercules mk2, perseus, and e

After a month of lurking, I finally feel like i did something useful. I converted the Hercules mkII, Perseus, and Enrinyes fighters from Freespace 2 into Freelancer. However, my hardpoint capabilities suck and the textures look kind of dull but if someone wants to host this, just tell me. Converting ships is easy, and I can probably do every single fighter from Freespace 1/2, but adding hardpoints is the hard part. You guys can tell me if you want any more.

A sig? Bah[! Who needs a sig?[!

Heck yeah ... we need more dragons too ...

all i would like is maybe a shivan sathanas juggernaut, a vasudan typhon class and maybe a hatshesput (or whatever his name is - egyptian god), the deimos corvette, and the orion class terran destroyer.

of course, that is if you have the time as if i can't do it why should somebody else take the trouble unless they want to do it because they like it?

Anyone want to host this stuff? I can cobble up a FLMM script pretty quickly I guess. I just finished a Vasudan Serapis and now I'm working on a Shivan Aeshma.

Try Hard Light (http://www.3dap.com/hlp) , they're pretty good about this stuff.

Dude! I'm thrilled you figured out how to convert them, i can't wait to see what you've done. Why don't you try the FLSDK site? (stickied i believe) As long as it's pretty polished they might accept it. Are you altering the infocards and names too? This is something you you can really take to a great level. I don't know how to skin stuff, but if you need help with hardpoints I'd be more than willing to give it a try. All i need is the ship in *.cmp format and I'll start workin' on it. The idea of FS2 capships is just crazy

how about some original freespace ships- like the apollo, valkyrie, or athena? or maybe a fenris-class cruiser?

hehe, even a lone orion would be overkill in the FL-try flying for two klicks and think of a ship taking up that entire distance, and bristling (sorta) with heavy weaponry. and then try to imagine a sathanas there taking up 6km-i think a planet would almost fit within it's arms (well, maybe not, but it wouldn't be for off :p )
great work Garion!

This FS2 ships mod is up for download in the FL Mod Manager sticky thread.
