Heh...I had to play the images side-by-side to see the difference...I was looking to see which of the uncoloured bit had been coloured in... You added windows and made the ship a <bit> longer.. Nice. Enjoy yourself in Cuba (I assume that's what "Cua" means ) and we'll see you in a week. |

Very nice Can i see a wireframe frame view please to check the geometry and how u built it, i know its weird ask but many modelers like looking at wireframes. It helps us to understand which way peopl go with thier models. |

Looks good, thanks for the pics. I'll try to get some wires done tonight or tomorrow of the station. |

Quote: Hopefully this is more buggy... It took me a while to realise what you meant by "Buggy"... It certainly looks more evil than the old one. I'll post an update in my shiplist thread, and i'll post a new picture when this one is more complete. I've also posted your Serpent class ship in the shiplist thread if you hadn't noticed, Zahadoom. |

Post subject: | Re: Dominion ships and stations |
I havent taken a look at that thread yet but i am assuming that my ship will be the first available in the game (tech 0) That was what it was designed to look like (to look more primative) |

Post subject: | Re: Dominion ships and stations |
Cool. I was wondering how ships would be able to dock with it...and now they can. ... To save you the bother, here's the Serpent class from the shiplist: Quote: PROBE SHIP I -Serpent Class TECH 0 Created by Zahadoom: Zahadoom's Serpent Class Zahadoom's Serpent Class from below So yeah, it's the first ship the Dominion starts off with. |

Post subject: | Re: Dominion ships and stations |
this station is absolutely massive.......In the center there will be a set of space doors wide enough to accomodate their largest ship the doors will be 1000 m wide... to give you an idea....Their spacedock is even bigger |

Post subject: | Re: Dominion ships and stations |
thats the idea, dom ships are very big, and they need room for the hords of jem hadar sorry i didint see that i meant 1000 m but its still huge. and you have to remeber that ships are getting bigger all the time |

Post subject: | Re: Dominion ships and stations |
Isn't DS9 1400m? So 1km sounds rather small to be honest...remember when Dominion ships were docked with the station? They were almost as big as it! I've done some checking, and Ex-Astris-Scientia has come up with the Dominion Battleship as being 1.5km - so their biggest ship would be bigger than DS9 - the Dominion station would then have to be considerably bigger than this to even be able to accommodate two of their ships, let alone an entire fleet!

Post subject: | Re: Dominion ships and stations |
Yeah, DS9 is 1,451.82 m in diameter according to DS9 TM and that seems realistic. Jem'Hadar battlecruiser was frequently seen docked with the DS9. According to shots of JH battleship that vessel has to be at least 1500 m long if you take Defiant's lenght of 120m. But still the main strenght of Dominion fleet was attack ship in huge numbers. As for the stations for the Dominion, have you thought of Car-Dom Repair facility?( seen in 'tackin into the wind' and 'WYLB') I don't know it's exact size, but I would estimate that it's at least 1127 m in diameter if you compare it with JH attack ship's lenght of 68.32 m from DS9TM. But many spec. effects say that attack ship is around 100m so that gives this station a diameter of over 1600m. |

Post subject: | Re: Dominion ships and stations |
when i said 1000m i was refering to the opening of the hatch where the ships enter |
Author: | zahadoom [ 09 Apr 2006, 00:06 ] |
Post subject: | Re: Dominion ships and stations |
ok i just did a measurement ck and the official diameter of the station that i drew is about 47km with the hatch being about 3000 m wide |

Post subject: | Re: Dominion ships and stations |
Wow...imagine that in the game...I hope Jig's engine can cope with that kind of size! 8O |

Post subject: | Re: Dominion ships and stations |
Jig replied to my PM. Apparently his engine will be able to cope with a 47km station, so go for it! Did you make the station bigger during the last update, Zahadoom? The pylons look like they are longer than in the first pic. You did it to fit more ships in I suppose? |
Author: | zahadoom [ 12 Apr 2006, 11:02 ] |
Post subject: | Re: Dominion ships and stations |
no its not bigger i just filled in the pylons to make it more pleasing to the eye, and i dont think size was ever in the equation matress just the # of polygons (could be wrong though) but i remember jig saying somewhere that it didint matter how big or small an object was, he could scale it later. Since your in comunication with jig, mention to him that my scout ship is complete and ready to leave drydock:) |

Post subject: | Re: Dominion ships and stations |
I think it looks great, Zahadoom! Just one question though, where are the doors to let ships in/out of the station? If you forgot to include them, prehaps you could put them inside the three "prongs" that stick out of the station? I've added in the picture that looks at the station from below into my shiplist thread. I think that picture looks the most cinematic and really shows off the station. I hope you don't mind, Zahadoom, but I decided i'd have a look at what the station could look like with Skeeters changes. As you can see, my paint skills leave a lot to be desired, but if you could make the changes Skeeter suggested, then i'm certain the station will be one of the best structures in the game. The places where i've put the windows are just examples, and there should really be windows in many more parts of the station, but you get idea. The "holes" are where I left out some windows to make it look more realisitic. |
