Ships for Starsector

Post by 366storm »

Since the Delphineaus Gulf War or whatever is dead as a doornail, and no one is using any of the sprites here, I was wondering if I could get permission to convert some of these ships into sprites for starsector. It would require a bit of modification on my part, and if I wanted to make a complete faction (SAR, Novian, etc) I might need to make some ships of my own to fill in the gaps.

If you want to give permission either post here or send me a pm listing exactly what you are giving me permission to do (Use your ships with minimal modification for weapon mounts, add ships to fill out the faction etc) and to which ships. If you just say something like 'yeah sure, use my stuff for whatever' I'm assuming the answer of yes to all above questions.

Or don't, that's you're perogative.

You're not likely to get many responses, this forum has been dead for a while now. I only checked in on a whim. You can use my AIM ships if you want, though. It seems all my old links are broken, so here's some pics.

I think I still have the files for these somewhere if you'd like me to upload them.

I only asked just in case. Also, since the forum is so dead, I figured that if anyone else dropped by (like you for example Anna) they would probably see my post since it will be sitting at the relative top of the pile for a while.

Also, the pics are fine, that's all I need for Starsector sprites.

The Starsector ship size scaling is a little different from what was used in DGW, so there are bound to be some problems.
Honestly at one point I was actually considering remodelling the SAR ships to fit into Starsector properly, basically making a brand new set of ships sized and balanced for SS but keeping the same basic visual style. I might be able to do that for you if you're interested.

Hilariously enough, I was considering the same thing.

Oh yes, very interested, otherwise I would have to do it myself in photoshop :lol:

But seriously, it would very much streamline the process and I would be very grateful.

I honestly wouldn't recommend my faction for you to use, it's complete shit and I don't think you would want to waste your time photoshopping some of it just to make them fit, it's best if you just take the beautiful ones that has a matching scale with starsector

Been a while since I checked back. With the addition of the EZ faction Mod, the work to implement BSF ships has become almost negligible.

Also, it really doesn't matter of what quality or quantity the ship(s) is/are. At the very least they will serve as inspiration for my own projects, and if they have nice 'parts' I can always use them to kitbash, that is if you are willing to let me mangle your hard work.

I think the only quality stuff I ever built was fan ships but if the links are even still working you are welcome to them.
