4th SE5 Shipset: Battlestar Galactica
 

Isopysco has uploaded the 4th shipset for Space Empires 5, the colonials from Battlestar Galactica. The set is a little rough around the edges, but shows much promise.

A little rough?

They look like those models I pulled from the SFC site the other day. Looks like we have very good source for more ship sets on the horizon.

Battleclinic is cool...they mostly have ST inspired ship models, but they do have a few for other sci-fi shows, and some new user created models as well...

There are some problems with the model or texture. I'm not 'expert' enough to be certain which it is. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif But though it needs some work it's great to see another major SciFi shipset. I'm sure it will be refined over time.

The model looks fine; detailed even. It's the texture that's not quite up to spec.

A version 1.5 has been released. Link in OP updated.

Excellent.

A benefit, apart from reducing processor need, of fighters being merely images is that I can just paste Raiders into the unit texture.

Is that picture in the first post the updated one for v1.5? I don't see any improvement. It is certainly nice to see new ship sets but this one seems so "rushed". I hope that is not the direction ship sets for SE5 are starting to take. You know, rushing them out so you can be #1? Personally I don't see myself using this set until it gets cleaned up. Hope that doesn't offend anyone, if it did I apologize now in advance. I am just trying to be honest and up front. That is not a ship set that inspires me like the last ones.
