What do you mean exactly. I am currently unable to texture for about another week but I can make the ship however better or worse as you would like. I few more specifics would be nice though.

Basically I want to remove the two ventral projections from the bottom hull of the ship, move the two lower engine pods to the end of the wings, mirror the wings so that there are two on each side (both wings on each side being connected to the engine pods) and flip the wings so that they sweep aft instead of forward.

As far as texturing goes, the entire ship will have the same hull paterns except in brick red and with stragecially placed beige striping.

If you visualize it, the general design should seem familiar... three horizontal engines, whole ship is red with beige stripes, is unarmed... figure it out

"Prepare to jump to slipstream..."

Ok. I'll post again later today, about 2 o'clock website time (PST). I think I know what you mean but I want to take a good look at the dromedary again. If I can find a good picture before I get home then I'll post sooner.

How about this anti-anti-nuclear-missile-missile I've been hearing about? Holy crap! I've just come over a paradox!

A nation has nuclear missiles (ICBMs).
A nation wants to protect themselves, so they make ANM (invented abbreviation for Anti-nuclear missile)
Nation A wants to get their nuke in, makes AANM.
Nation B wants to be safe, AAANM
Nation A makes AAAANM
Nation B retorts with AAAAANM
It'll go on forever!

Quick quesion:
What do nuclear missiles, anti-nuclear missiles, anti-anti-nuclear missiles, and anti-anti-anti-nuclear missiles have to do with my ship request other than as a means to blow it up? (Which I must admit would be kinda fun! )

Besides, diplomatic ships are either lightly armed or not armed at all...

"Prepare to jump to slipstream..."

...Until suddenly, Nation C launches an ICBM at Nation A.

"Crikey", the President/General/Queen says "Launch the anti-anti-anti-anti-anti-anti-anti-anti-anti-anti-anti-anti-anti-anti-anti-anti-anti-anti-anti-anti-anti-anti-anti-..." *** BOOM *** "... Bugger."

Sorry it has taken so long but i finally got started. However i am having slight difficulties. I will post again soon cause my trial version of MSD runns out soon.

@Capt Byron: Thanx, sorry I haven't posted here in a few days.

@Everyone else: Stop spamming my thread PLEASE! Its bad enough my other ship thread didn't get replied to but spam is even worse. So please, with all due respect, cut the spam.

"Prepare to jump to slipstream..."

Sorry man, only kidding around

If you or CaptBryon need any help with the model I'd be happy to help (Just registered my copy of MS3D)

Thanks Accu<o>shot.

Actually I do need some help because I can't move the enginepods up to where I need them. Working in Milkshape is incredibaly harder than I thought it would be. Also, in removing the lower portions of the ship I remove the lower wings too, which is not the desired effect, and leave great big holes in the cargo bay. If you can think of anything to help I wout sure appreciate it, the ship is the Dromedary.

Can someone make models of ships in priv. 2 and send them to me (ms3d plz i cant make ms3d from gmax myself) especially ships like the icarus and the heretic are very welcome....

TommY out

Movin' in for the kill

@TommY_4_life: There is a 'Privateer: The Reckoning' mod hosted here on TLR if that's what you're interested in. To be entirely honest, I never played Privateer or Wing Commander and I don't too much care for the ship designs anyway, but that's just my personal opinion.

@Accu<o>shot: Sorry if I seemed harsh. My bad!
Well seeing as CaptByron has asked for help I assume it's appreciated, 'cause I sure appreciate it.

@CaptByron: Actually, the original engine pylons that extended from the protrusion on the bottom of the hull are supposed to be removed if I understand you correctly. The idea was to duplicate the larger wings on the side of the ship and flip them over so they sweep the other way. Geez, I must sound nit-picky...

Well THANKS so much to both of you Accu & Capt, this means a lot, especially since I can't get these darned 3D modelling programs to work, but hey, I'm still trying.

"Prepare to jump to slipstream..."

OK.
I don't know if you've noticed that there are two wings on each side of the ship. I sure didn't until recently. Do you want both sets of wings or not? 'cause if you don't that would be nice...
I'm working on flipping the wings but it is difficult to duplicate them as you cannot select the whole wing piece at once. For some reason when I move something it sticks out wrong or leaves a hole... lol
So I'm still working on it and will keep doing so.
