What about stations and IA ships ?

[( Tchey )]

Hello,

I've been out of Evochron for several months (almost a year !) but i'd like to play again. I'm downloading the last version (it takes almost 2 hours with with my poor internet), and graphical mods.

HUD : ok
Cockpit : ok
Stars : ok
Nebulaes : ok
Rings : ok
French translation : ok

There is nothing about stations or IA ships ? Any WIP ?

Thanks you for your lights.

Welcome back Tchey, I do not know what you mean. Are you talking about the Costumizing kit of EM?
If so then Stations can not be modded in EM and you can not mod AI ships either, you can only mod their textures I believe....

Thanks.

I'm talking about textures yes, not IA. The game is not "ugly" but it's not really beautiful. With the textures from the community, it's much better. I think the ships and stations are the last things to improve in ordrer to have a good looking wonderful game.

The hires ship texture mod does change the textures of AI ships too.

Thats only the "normal" hulls, not the cap-ship/battleships, thus far at least.

Think about the "Alien" films and many SciFi films that followed - space isn't pretty - actually it's pretty ugly - sort of industrial factory in space - even "Space Above and Beyond" had the idea early on !

Starship Troopers had the "hotel in space" look - StarTrek had the "home in space" look - StarGate avoided it all by avoiding the space travel bit (for the most part, then it has the "US NAvy in space" look )
