Alliance Ship Set (Ready)(B5ish)

[Atrocities]

Its no Whitestar, but it is as close as I can get it for now.

I may not even continue with this set. I might just change it into something else.

Those are great-looking ships. The sleek, bird-like design is perfect for fast ships. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif Very nice.

[Fyron]

Just make a new race. Stop limiting yourself to canonical sets. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif

Oh, and it does indeed look good... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

[Kevin Arisa]

ooooh. pretties. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

[narf poit chez BOOM]

Arisa stole my line! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

[Atrocities]

Thanks.

If I can make a nice copy of a well known ship and then make 20 odd variants of it I would hope they become new cannon and people will appreciate them and use them.

Really I just want to make nice pretty ships that people will want to use.

More to come tomorrow I hope. Right now I am about 3 shades to the wind... Damn Jack and diet coke.

[pathfinder]

AT: There are several B5 races where there are no examples of ships http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Also a couple of races, particulary the Gaim, bought other races ships and heavily modified them.....

[Ragnarok]

Awesome ships, AT! I cannot wait until the completed set is here. There are just so many awesome sets coming out right now, it makes life hard. I can never decide which to use on PBW. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif

[gregebowman]

Ditto's on the awesome remarks. Can't wait to see a completed set.

[Captain Kwok]

I agree with Fyron and just make this an original set. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif

[Atrocities]

Thanks.

Was wondering if there are any updated shipsets that are out there for B-5.

I want to see these as true 3D models in Starfury as well! Now that would be truly cool!

[Atrocities]

Like won't happen. The ploy count is way to high for use with SF. (Remeber the beta and the ships I made?)

I have completed the basic ship images from Escort through Baseship. Fighters and Carriers are done.

I need to come up with an idea for bases, troop, mine, satellite, and weapons platforms.

Oh ya, and a colony ship.

I have named the set Atrocitonian. (For U B5 Fans, you can name it what you want for use with the B5 mod)

[oleg]

If anybody wants to use in B5 mod, why not make Rangers a separate race ? Like if Delenn get really pissed off with Grey Council and set up a separate force ? A very plausible twist somewhere between season 2 and 3 http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

[Atrocities]

Actually Ranger One is Ivanavan (Sp) now. She took the job after Sheriden died or whatever it was he and Vailen did. (Sorry I dont' know how to spell their names.)

[ April 24, 2004, 10:04: Message edited by: Atrocities ]

[Timstone]

Sheridan and Valen are one and the same person.
And Ivanova is/was one hell of a babe. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

[Atrocities]

Sinclair and Valen are one in the same.

Sheridan is not. However he and Valen (Sinclair) both vanished into thin air. They share the same fait and are rumored to some day return. Should be interesting.

[Atrocities]

The Transports and colony ship are now done.

I formally request to use Susan' portrait as a race picture and as a declaration of war in the speach.txt file the following:

"I am Susan Ivanova, commander, daughter of Andrei and Sophi Ivanov. I am the right hand of vengeance, and the boot that is going to kick your sorry *** all the way back to Earth, sweetheart, I am death incarnate, and the Last living thing that you will ever see. God sent me!"

I would certainly surrender my empire next turn http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

[General Woundwort]

I just started to get the boxed DVD sets recently (if B5 is still rerunning somewhere on cable, it's not available with the package we have). Seeing those old shows again reminded me how much I missed B5. Lots of great quotes to be had...

"Xanthras lead very sad life. Zanthras probably have very sad death." (pauses, brightens) "But at least - there is symmetry!" http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

[Ragnarok]

This is now my favorite shipset!

[Timstone]

Very nice design!
But look at the shadows of the troops. They all match the Small Troop. Little error.

[Aiken]

Very sexy shipset, Atrocities. You're very productive these days http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif
Keep it going!

[ April 26, 2004, 17:57: Message edited by: aiken ]

I also like this set. Can't wait to add it to my shipset folder.

[Fyron]

[pathfinder]

Looks good to me Atrocities!

[Atrocities]

I have decided to go with the name Alliance for the set. I have set it up as a new set but any one who wants to spend the time to set it up for B5 can help themselves. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

I suggest using the EA as a basis and adding a new portrait imae and back story. I am far to lazy to do this.

Oh ya, the troop images have been updated. The shadows are now correct.

Not yet ready for download. This race can be used for B5 mod exclusively, but it is also my Atrocitonian race. (Name Pending until I come up with something better.)

Brilliant. Specialy like the base design...

[Atrocities]

Thanks Trooper. I should have the set ready for download tonight or tomorrow.

[Timstone]

Ha, thanks for updating those shadows. Nice set indeed.

[Raging Deadstar]

Very Nice Work Atrocities. Very beautiful and sleek, which is definitely testification to your skills in doga.

At Play By Committee II (SHAMELESS PLUG) http://www.se4.cnrhq.com/index.php We voted to use this shipset as our races, Your Shipset won the voting with 80% of the votes. Congratulations http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

I can't wait to see the Neostandard Pictures for these, it looks incredible. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon6.gif

[Atrocities]

I will work on the neo images today. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

[Ragnarok]

So when will we be able to download this wonderful set? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

[Atrocities]

I am lazy my friend. Maybe even a little depressed at the moment so the best I can say is soon. Very soon. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Now to make them good guys or bad.

[Atrocities]

Neo Standard ships completed. I am now working on the Ai and General File.

The race will be a slightly aggressive race.

Feed back is always appreciated. Also feel free to use this set for Babylon 5 mod. You might have to change the description and racial portraits though.

OOOOOO... *drools* purdy ships...I have downloaded and they will be the next ship set I use on PBW. Thanks for this set AT! You are truely the shipset master! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

[Atrocities]

OMG! I should upload all my recent sets to PBW. My bad for neglecting this.

[Captain Kwok]

I don't think the shield images are going to mask properly. Their background is not absolute black.

[Atrocities]

Ah I see what your saying.

[Atrocities]

I replaced the shield image.

Also if you have already downloaded the set you can get the new Alliance Shield (http://www.astmod.com/zips/Alliance_Shields.zip).

*dogscoff stumbles in, coughing and blinking in the dust. He looks around at the ancient thread, and frowns at the neglect he sees. He quickly sacrifices a goat, a vigin, and a virgin goat, then mumbles a dark and terrible incantation. The thread rumbles... it moves, it... it... it LIVES!

Atrocities, I've just done you a wiki page for the alliance shipset (http://wiki.spaceempires.net/index.php/Alliance) and I noticed that their AI_general description makes mention of the Salideen religion. Does that mean that they are the guys from Once upon the Stars? I just wanted to know if there should be a link to the OutS wiki page, that's all. Oh, also, do you think they should go under the 'humans' category or have they evolved too far beyond homo sapiens to qualify? I thought they were probably a distinct species, but it's your call.

Feel free to adjust anything else on the page that you think needs changing- the pages I make for shipsets tend to be a little sparse, but that doesn't mean others can't flesh them out as they see fit.

[Atrocities]

I think that was a left over from when I set up the Pandoran Race AI files. However, I am sure that a creative individual could run with the concept and produce an interesting corolation between the KEDO and the Pandorans. The Kedo could easily be humanoid like, but not human. I would tend to agree with your assessement, they are a distinct species seperate from humans but very simular.

Great catch by the way. That set was originally designed to be a B5 Alliance set, but it was poorly recieved as such so it was changed to be what it is now.

Thanks for the Wiki page work, I know nothing about the system and am a bit scared to get involved because of the time I know I would end up investing in it.

Yeah, it's strangely addictive. You think "I'll just do this one page" but then that page links to loads of other pages, and you start working on those, and they link to other pages...

Would you like a list of all your shipsets on your USER: page? It would probably make your page one of the longest on the wiki! How many shipsets have you done, anyway? I've only done wiki pages for about half a dozen of yours so far but my grand plan is to have a page for every single shipset in the universe ever, so we should have all of your on there eventually.

And if anyone else wants to chip in on this grand endeavour, please (please please) do.

51. the Son'a, I forgot to mention them - edit

If you count all the redesigns, you can tripple this count.

[dogscoff]

LOL! The shipset megapack has something like 270 shipsets in it. It has missed a few, but not that many. A few dozen at most. Add in a hundred or so for recolours and rehashes of existing shipsets (ie, jraenar shipset with personalised flag and race portrait, which comprises half the PBW shipset download section) and the total number of publicly-released shipsets for SE4 is still under 400.

That means that you, personally, can account for at least twelve point five percent of ALL shipsets EVER made for SE4! And that's without counting your redesigns!

And how many on your list were released after your 'retirement'?
