Do I have to ask?

Ah heck, I'll ask ya if I can, I could really, really, really, really use these for my mod. You saved me like thiiiiiiis much work.

You're really a cool guy Baene, I like you

Your posts are SPAM . My posts are WISDOM SPEECHES .

Over many months of playing this game I've flown most all the ships out there in most of the mods. I have to say this ship pack by Baene is one of the best I've come across yet.

Just finished flying a mission in each of the 10 ships he created. They were very well balanced, flying and fighting just as you would expect. Each ship was original, but wonderfully derivative of the original design style from each house. There was no doubt you were in a Liberty, Kusari, or Bretonian ship.

The only thing missing was a few freighters, but was happy to read you're working on them now as well. Excellent job Baene. Not many out there have your talent for understanding the spirit of Freelancer, while able to create an extension in that same feel.

Baene,

I really lik eyour mod.. It has some cool designs and i'm looking forward to see your new ships.
In your version somthing got mixed up in leeds i guess. I can buy the silver fish very heavy fighter for 60 k while there is a worse heavy fighter for over 100 k. Also the trade value of the new ships when buying a new ship is really low... ($ 150 in stead of $100000+ ? :S) It is pretty frustrating to have weapons with a trade value over 4000 on a ship with a trade value of 150
I must say this is a good mod for your first time so keep up the good work .

Thanks, Jet_Black! I did the prices that way on purpose, so everyone can buy the ships no matter what It helps in the SP missions, and you get to fly something interesting hehe...If you liked those ships, keep your eyes open for the Upcoming God Squad Studios release of Dog Fight Mod...I have done all but one ship for that mod (the very excellent Antaeus is included, it's one of my favorites from Konfliction)...The mod alread has almost 30 of my custom ships in it, and more and more are on the way

Again, thanks for the kind words, they certainly go a long way

Baene, I love your ships. They're probably the most true to the FL universe that I've gotten a chance to play with. (the Enfilade is too cool for words) For some reason the guardian/marauder/and elite defender all show up without textures in my game, but as I seem to be the only one with that problem I'll figure it out on my own. I certainly hope you do decide to make some freighters, they're overlooked alot and it would be nice to see some new ones.
I was trying to learn how to make new commodity icons with Osprey's excellent tutorial and since he used a ship I decided to practice with ships. I used yours because I have them in my game at home and they didn't have personal icons. If you want I can send them to you with the script I use on flmm to get them going. They're not super high quality(my first go at this after all) but you can tell what ship is what.
If you like them but want better quality send me small jpg of them in a good profile in milkshape with a monotone background(preferably white, it's easier to get rid of) and I'll do them up after I finish off my commodities. I ought to be pretty good at it by then. If you don't like them then never mind, just trash them.
Thanks for the great ships.

Kaegogi,

Words cannot express how grateful i am for the icons bro Thanks again, they totally rock! I've been sooooo busy designing and getting ships and weapons into my new mod that i didn't (and won't) have time to do the icons, nor do i know how...But yes, thanks MUCH to Osprey for the tutorial, and again, thanks for the icons!!!

oh and guys, keep an eye out for the soon to be released Dog Fight Mod...I think it's going to be a winner in MP! I am doing ALL the ships for the mod. The teaser will be released this friday (tomorrow, at the time of this post) and it has 22 of my ships in it. 10 from the pack i released, plus 12 new designs. I currently project 25 to 30 more BRAND NEW SHIPS to go into the final first release of DFM, to make a total of 50-55 new ships in the mod. I also will be doing custom ships for the clans in the mod on all host servers, and custom textures with the clan's logo included, for a unique clan ship. No more using the same old ships in this mod! So keep your eyes open for the Dog Fight Mod. Myself and Tank have worked VERY VERY hard on it!

Baene,
You're welcome. I actually enjoy doing the icons. Send me jpg's of the other 30 or 40 ships and I'll make one for all of them that you can stick in your new mod.

On the Enfilade, one of the gun doesn't show up.
And either the CM or Mine is not on the same plane with the other.

You place a square mount, and then you place the hardpoint triangle on top of that. And that should works.

I like the Guardian fighter. Cool.

lol thanks for the "advice". The Enfilade was my first real attempt at making a .cmp file...Since then i have gotten the hang of it, and that problem won't happen again, trust me. I will fix the Enfilade and the Draconji (which has the guns mounted away from the hull) in another version.
