that is correct dr. and so ends my reply on your comunition skills with a stupid/dumb person and i forgot that the mass of the ship should be 120 and atleast 20 cargo that should be enogh to do alll the strings right?

There are no stupid or dumb people in this thread, only those who can use punctuation and those who can't.
To everyone: If you can understand what is needed, by all means help. If you can't understand anything, please ignore this thread. Congratulations to those who persist, you might find some karma coming your way
zaku: You'll get many more responses if you spend half an hour or so going over your posts in a word processor checking the spelling and grammar. The message board does not need an instant response, even if it takes you a day to get the post right, the topic will still be here - each new message moves it to the top.

Sorry, Zaku! I was not trying to call you stupid. Sometimes even very smart people write things that other smart people have trouble understanding, so if I am not completely sure that I understand something that I am trying to explain, I say that I am not sure.
Actually, in another recent discussion on this board, I tried to say some similar things. That was partly because I thought that some of the smartest people on this board were having trouble understanding each other perfectly.

Okay so anyway i think that this is the best mass and cargo because if i want to change the mass to get it higher or lower i have room to work with and then it won't be AS cheaty as it was before and i think my spelling will improve.
My suggestion to help zaku work on his plugin skills is for Captain Phillips provide sprites for the Skyhopper whenever he finishes, and then a more experinced member attaches the sprites and shans to a ship above the normal RID set with the stats of the Shuttle or some other cruddy ship, and then from that baseline zaku can build his dream ship. What way we could give him a start without providing everything for him. I was going to suggest giving him an empty ship resource, but that could be rather daunting for a first-timer. At least if it's initially with a shuttle's stats, he can just change the numbers higher or lower and see what happens. Maybe give him his purple Graviton beam without attaching it to the ship so that he has to figure that out for himself. It's not hard to learn how to do those things, and he'll become more self-sufficient.
Zaku, while it's nice that people are doing these things for you, don't expect it to happen all the time. Captain Phillips is being very kind to provide new ship graphics for you, but under normal circumstances this doesn't happen very often.

actually, I'm partly doing this for myself. Some day, I would like to set up a free custom ship graphics site. But I know that my skills with 3D are not good enough to take on large projects. So I'm gonna start small, with simple stuff like Zaku's hopper. Besides, I do like to help people anyway.
Ok Zaku, could you explain whether you mean, the color of the beam fired, or the gun/weapon that fires it? that would be really helpfull. As soon as I get a better texture and add the lower gun I'll post another picture.

Well I'm doing that myself for several projects, but for zaku , send a plugin that while it contains all of the necessary parts to work without modification, the stats will be rather crappy so that he is forced to teach himself something about plugin editing in order to complete the plugin is the way that he wants. It promotes his learning and improvement without making him totally dependent on outside help. Obviously the next step is that he learns how to make ships from blank resources.

I thought I was doing all the programming and rendering? Or is Captain Phillips doing that too now? And yes, if I'm still doing them, I'll refrain from making them cheat level stats but I'll include a guide on how to modify it for Zaku. Hopefully, his reading comprehension skills are better than his typing skills.

hopefully you are still doing the spins, I said somewhere that my only method of spinning ships takes three hours per spin and mask.

If I'm doing that, I might as well do all the programming. Just send me the completed object files when Zaku is finally happy with the ship. Meanwhile, I'll try to figure out if I can somehow do a Polaris-like texture. The lights will probably be easier to do.

Do you mean a model without textures? That wouldn't work since I have a speciel texture that is for the light blasters.

I mean the completed models with textures and such. For the Polaris texture, I mean I'm trying to create one for you to use.

Sorry to confuse you, I was just using a general address to everyone who was helping zaku.
okay firswt of all the color of the beam is purple and uses the same stats as the adult grav beam in skipper cheat2 and i agree with the matrix on this one you guys should just give me the graphics and pics and i create the ship stats and other stuff by myself and then ll be able to do things better and wont have to ask for as much on the boras and i thank you all for all of your help now what do you think i should put on the side of my ship because i need ideas?

on the side???
on the wings their used to be long sticks off of of the wings i want tyo put some thing on those places
Originally posted by Zaku: **on the wings their used to be long sticks off of of the wings i want tyo put some thing on those places
This is like a chat. I put medium blasters on the model in those places, what would you like there?
I'm sorry Zaku, I lost my harddrive and with it your ship. It will take a long time to get Strata Vision back, then I have to register it all over again. It could be months before I get back to work on your ship. I'll try to get Srata Vision up next week and redo your ship, but I can't make any promises.
