If the Empire has leased the property,
any local city council trespassing,
is potentially creating an international incident.
That will allow their Emperor to get involved,
disbanding the council.

from serving in a government position.
Mission briefing is not generally held in a launch bay.
It might happen if you have a rapidly changing situation
and need to brief everyone right before takeoff,
but this feels more like something planned well in advance.
I have no idea if drawing a briefing room would be harder
or easier, so feel free to ignore if it makes it harder on you.
Family members of the now defunked wanna-be empress?
Someone trying to lay claim on their land maybe?
Last minute briefing, usually a sign of a intel that was just
updated maybe. Either way, a small, fast, Dagger screams
a gas attack. knock them out, inform them of the latest
Motha BS, move on to the next targets. I’m guessing, who
knows but PC where this is going.

PC, I give. I have tried everything I can think of
including following the directory path you gave me
and absolutely CANNOT find any of those ship 3D
models. I’m going to work on various ideas and
send you screen caps of the basic models. I also
plan to put screen caps up at my DeviantArt page
to let the gang here look at the preliminary work
and vote on what they’d like to see.
In the interim, can someone recommend past epi-
sodes with decent views of core warships? If no-
thinig else I can hokey up reasonable stand-ins for
PC’s actual models.
Okay. Gonna have to think about where they
might graft FTL equipment onto those shapes.
Looking at the capital ship I’m getting ideas
of what their FTL gear might look like. I see
it as very angular and almost rough looking.
The Empire’s will be similar but sleeker,
cooler looking ’cause it’s the Wolf Empire.
It’s pretty evident that whoever executed those
models was more heavily influenced by Star Wars
than Star Trek. That gives me a direction.
Can you resize/reorient as needed? Otherwise
I’ll have to buy at least the Capital ship to get
the size right.
Also, any place I graft FTL gear onto any of the
shapes it’s gonna occlude weapons’ arcs. It’s
unavoidable. I’ll try to design the FTL gear to
go on as far aft as practical.
simple: 2 generic rings, fore an aft,.
just big enough for the biggest,.
6 connecting tubes each, 3 per side,.
IF left on, ships are at disadvantage.
(expensive, easy to damage, interrupts normal ops..)
IF removed, tubes have Q.D.’s..
then biggest ship brought a tug,.
to pick up rings (an tubes) an hold till depart…
this way, art in the long run is not changed.
just the arrival an departure.
Except I’m trying to build something that looks
like it was made by the same folks who made
the Daz models PC is using. Also I want to do
something that is worthy of OC’s art.
FEKKING GREAT! I spent the money to get the
Capital Ship and it won’t install using DAZ install
manager and the manually downloaded ZIP file
will not open! Okay it was only $14 but it still
hurt! {sigh} I guess I’m still gonna need the
.obj files to get sizes/proportions right. But
until then I’ll keep plugging on.
It might have been a bad download, I’ve ran into that
before, did you try to re-d/l it? Some .stl and .obj files
I’ve d/l-ed did the same thing from both thingiverse
and printables websites. .zip files are bad about that,
sometimes I use Winrar to get them to open.
I just found the original zip files in my downloads
directory and unzipped them to “My DAZ 3D Library”
with 7zip.
If that doesn’t work, you might have a faulty download.
would it be possible to email me the .obj and .mtl
files? That’s all I truly need. I need those files so
I can get the model size and orientation correct.
The .obj files are the 3D models and the .mtl are
the materials. with those I can use the same ma-
terials for the new models as on the existing.
Note: Unfortunately I cannot spend more than a
couple of hours at the computer. I am an in early
of heart failure and my hands and feet swell. It
gets pretty uncomfortable.
The files are far too large for email, and my copy of the RAR
creator is out of it’s trial period.
Can’t you download the files from DAZ manually and then unzip
them to a folder on your desktop?
I just did that and it worked fine.
If this is the same Ariste Jaerkan as in the hunt sequence,
she has lost some colour. Then she was pink(ish)…
Top story. someone seems to be aiming for some hurt.
I suspect it will not go as the party crashers had imagined
Catman, Isuspect it’s gonna take some time to
construct decent looking FTL add-on gear for the
core ships. I have some pictures in my head but
actually realizing them (and regaining proficiency
in the 3D modeler) is gonna take some work.
Unfortunately I’m sure it will not be ready in
to be used for the attack on Lepordia. I’m gonna
keep plugging. I’ll send you screen caps of my
WIP to see if you approve of the direction I’m
going in.
Frame four suggests it is MEOW time.

But the launch bay is more visually
interesting than a briefing room.
Dramatic license plus it is more visually interesting.

Was thinking the same thing.
Shades of the little red hen?
I’m doing a re-read now,
I’ll catch up soon enough.
I think I know who you mean,
but I’ve slept since then,
heh.

These are all three ships that I have:

The Empire’s will be similar but sleeker,

Also I’m assuming the smallest
class ships do not get FTL gear.
Only the 2 (or maybe 3) largest
classes can go FTL.
You agree?

i thought this was a.. greble build anyway,,
2 different ships thrown together,
as last ditch to work..
also these are all free daz ships…

an will not copy.!
manually open the file.
manually move each file.

Except I bought this at the Daz3D site.
