try it.. it wont hurt to try showing a ship damaged..... what about a damaged base? as well?

Nice ships as always, PubMaster. I like the torquing on the fuselage - building a decent ship and then "breaking" it. I think that you should go all out on collision damage, though. Now that you've planted the seed, I may try for a totally ruined, barely-functional wreck.

Will get to the whole battle-damage thing later. For now, some new generic ships:

Thanks for the info Dystopic, oh and nice interstellar collision there pubmaster.

TG Steeler your ships look awsome! =D

Very creative way to use the different parts

I'm a total noob, how do I open GalCiv in window mode?

(Ships will come soon...maybe.) Please tell me ASAP, I want to share my latest creations, the Birmingham class dreadnaught, F-10 Death Hawk, and Patton Class frigate.

Thanks for the idea of the in game damage. OK... here is another damged ship. You might call it recently deseased. A little more work went into this one. What do you guys think?

I wanted to spice it up with a bit of fiction but I am not that creative so here it is.

Silent Night

Thanks! I like it and I am glad you do too. This is from in game combat. I was in Battle of the gods mode and you have to get it just right. I was impatient and did not want to play a whole game for a few screen shots so I just attacked everyone until the damaged graphics came on. The first game I found out that I had to protect my home planet too. The second game I went overboard and lost it before I could take a screen shot of it. Hehe.

that looks great PubMaster! i'm glad the idea worked. maybe with some photoshopping it'd even be possible to put a ship attacking it into the picture... meh, like you said, too much work for a screenshot (and this is coming from a photoshop veteran).

i haven't even been playing the game recently... just working on getting my ships to look just right. man, being a perfectionist kinda sucks.

Pub, TG - Kenwebb if you happen to see this post - how do you all manage to put out so many elaborate ship designs so frequently?

Hehe, dystopic, I got nothing on Kenwebb. But thank you for including me with these guys. The shear quantity and quality of kenwebbs designs are very impressive. Also I haven't done a concerted effort for fleet packs. I love the idea of them and like what I see but not sure how to go about organizing them in that way, not to mention the conformity/ likeness between the designs that make them look like fleets.


I think I have Adult A.D.D. by the way. When I go into designing I may have an overall (very basic)idea of what I want to do but I normally end up somewhere else. I guess thats why I have a hard time with asymetrical designs. If I get the time this weekend I think I try to upload some more designs and will try to arrange the same looking ships together to make it easier to create fleets from them.


The other problem I have recently realized is that I have just been designing with terran hulls. Which forces anyone that downloads them to change the file names to get them to work for other races. Sorry.


However after my last ship pack and their subsequent replys I have got them all as templates and I have ID'd them as what mod is required or whether they are metaverse compliant. (and the huge freighter is labeled with a Warning! due to it's high extras content.)


Hey Kryo,
On your next update to you mod could you include a spherical hard point set? I love the formation and offsets but a sphere would be great for clouds of debris.


Now that I got totally off subject (I told you about the A.D.D.) I will now fight DC traffic on the way to the bar. Cheers!


But before I go I will answer your question. I design stuff that I like and when I have a few built up I put them together and post them. No real plans for the most part. The exception is what you see with the ship with the broken back. I did that a while back but I remembered how I put it together and figured that would work well with the idea of damage. Then I got carried away like always do and there you go. A dead ship.


Like I said before I am glad you guys like them.

here is a tanker/re-fueler

Here's some of my ships for the Earth Federation. (you might know them from my latest AAr.):


first, the F-10 Death Hawk.

Birmingham Class Dreadnaught. (I didn't make this in my AAR game, I made it in a Battle of The Gods match.)

Here's a close-up on the Birmingham. For better or worse, we won't get carriers in GC for a long time, I put "fighters" on it, ready to "launch" at a moment's notice.
