Re: It looks cool, but it breaks!

The shape is cool, and the general design is good. My only two criticisms are the liberal use of the "Generic" sections, which lack fine details and don't look good in large quantities. Also, the holes in the ship make it look very fragile and don't look good in general. That's not to say ...

Re: The NSF

The first two are halfway decent. The main thing with them is the mixing of stock sections with SW ones. This includes having the core showing. When using SW sprites, this doesn't look good. The shapes are interesting, and despite some section repetition, put together relatively well. The third... A...

Re: My first fleet [By JaKeRUS]

As of these latest, I'd say you are improving. Rather than critique each ship, I think I'll just point out the common shortcoming, something I think every builder goes through at some point. Right now your ships are very two-dimensional. One of the main barrier between good and great ships is buildi...

Re: IMT Fleet

Actually, I think these latest ones are excellent. I don't see any particular drop in quality and seeing a couple small ships fill out the fleet is a good touch. My only criticism isn't even on the build, but the design. I just think the Ba should have a weapon the Ka doesn't. Otherwise they strike ...

Re: Star Fleet The Biggest Ships!

There is no way to prevent ships from passing through, but since the shield is a section, it should impact any debris on its own. Now that I can actually see the ship, I like it. It's not a masterpiece, and I maintain that the stock style sections shouldn't be mixed with SWA sections, but it's much ...

I just have to say I'm thrilled to see you post these. They were great and I very much look forward to playing with them when I can put them on my better computer tomorrow. I'm glad to see this place isn't totally dead, and I hope you build more.

Re: Star Fleet The Biggest Ships!

The parenting lines are covering a lot of the ship. You ought to turn them off before you take pictures. From what I can see, it is a definite improvement in your building. However, mixing stock and SW style is generally bad, so you may want to try out some custom weapon sprites, or just not use wea...

Re: Ordanian Fleet

The only three causes I know of for this error are an incorrect file path, actually missing sprite, or some kind of typo in the name. If you're positive it isn't any of those, then I don't know what to tell you.

Re: Ordanian Fleet

Is it possibly stored as a .PNG and not a .png? BSF doesn't like upper case in file types.

Re: Ordanian Fleet

That means that you don't have the sprite, which shouldn't be the case, or it's in the wrong place. Make sure the sprite is in the correct filepath.

Re: some new ships ^^

These are gorgeous. The progression of design on the fighters is interesting and the carrier is rather fine as well. I usually shun the use of the sw stock sprites, but in this case, I think you've made them look pretty decent. I would love to see this thing in combat. It's nice to see someone decen...

Re: Shipmaker's FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

The core is always the master parent of sorts. It is impossible not to have at least one section as its child. Not everything needs to be directly "childed" to it though.
