Venator's Stock Remix

Venator · Post by **Venator** » Fri Dec 05, 2008 1:03 am

I'll do a few of these per day till I've got a full complement (most or all of the stock ships). Just a side project during exams.

Thus far...

Hestia Superior:

Cronus Magna:

(The forward pair of Beamers are Teslas; I've since changed the sprite.)

Generally speaking, all the ships will have the following features:

* +50 HP over the originals.
* 300 HP bubbleshield on Destroyers, 100 on Patrol Ships, and 500 on Battleships.
* Slight weapon changes; slightly improved accuracy and slightly greater AI ranges.
* Cores, bubbleshields and doodads in team colours.

Those are decent (well, as much as ships with just few sections can be...), but what the hell is up with the ugly green shield and even worse background...?

Boredom

.

The shield, as I mentioned, it stock coloured; I wasn't going for dashing aesthetics as much as putting a simple-but-different CE spin on the stock fleets.

It doesn't look nearly so weird in space.

Suggestion: Make the shield have ADDITIVE blending. The box where it says "Blending" in the Edit tab -> make that a 2.

*Headdesk*

I knew there was something I'd forgotten...
