Imagemod requests here!
 
Here's a new thread for image requests from modders.

Artists, feel free to post a message saying you've started/finished one of them, or have already got something similar to use.


As for actual requests, I have some to start with:

- A flying temple complex. All 5 religious facilities combined & floating, or maybe in a giant tower. Either is good; they just have to take up one facility slot.

- A better shield-armor image. Something more like a grid across the surface of a hull. To replace the armor-above-shield-generator SE4 Classic image.

I'll start work on these tonight, but don't let that stop anyone else from having a crack at it.

I may not come up with anything decent looking, and if I do it might take me a fortnight.

Besides, it doesn't hurt to have multiple image Versions of the same concept, does it?

Well, I'll be happy to start this off:

Anybody interested in doing some facilities for the B5 Mod? Or anyone want to have a go at making some of the special planets (such as Zha'ha'dum)?

Thanks!

I'm sure lots of ppl will try it, but could you be more specific? What facilities?

Re: Imagemod requests here!
 
Right now I need more components than facilities. I was hoping to redo some of the existing components with a B5 feel - such as the bridge, crew quarters, boarding parties, etc. and also wanted to replace some of the event pics (such as - IntelEspionageAgainstUs, IntelSabatogeByUs, Ruins, Pop Happy/Angry, Planet Rebels/Riots/Revolts).

I know these aren't needed to make the mod a success, but I am hoping to give the mod a totally different feel. I've already replaced about half of the events with B5 pics and have completed about 60 weapons and other components.

-Training component/simulator for ship so experience is gained.
-Serene, forestry area of planet (designated as facility), a National Forest
-A small component for sattilites/science ships that gains research points.
-A very small community, that can fit on a ship, (think sort of like Macross), generates population (a very good idea for large space-yard ships)
-Ship library (entertains crew)
-Armory (counts as five secruity stations on a ship)

Loknar, are those pics for the roleplaying mod? because many of those things cannot be made to work in a mod. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif
Anyway I'll play a little with 3d studio and see if I can make any worth using pic for any of those or the others posted below. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Andres:

Who makes the program 3D studio? Is it easy to use?

Re: Imagemod requests here!
 
I remember an "Autodesk 3D Studio" splash screen, and amazingly my memory was right!

Dogscoff's off-the-wall Cubeworld submission got me thinking of some interesting submissions to suggest:
- Other crazy geometry: doughnut planets, diskworlds, Peanut-shaped planets (from two small ones colliding)
- Glowing lava worlds?
- Lego planets! Facilities & components too!
Nothing like a lego shipset, under a mod with a "lego" racial tech http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Re: Imagemod requests here!
 
Thanks for the link!

Lego components would be pretty easy, the tech tree would be entertaining:

Research - 2 Pip-Piece Flat:Blue
Research - Small Square:Red
