The neo-standard thread- Standardising additional hull sizes.

More neo-generic pic.

So is this the list and the names we are using? If it is I can get started on the NeoVehicleSize.txt file for the Devnull Mod.

There may be changes, but this is how it looks now.
It's newer than the official Version that still has the 3 worldships.

Do you know where I can get a copy of RAR that will not quit after a trial period?

If the RAR people do not offer a free Version to unpack files (even if it won't compress them) then its kind of pointless to use for distributing files.

I do have an old DOS Version of RAR, but it can't handle those long filenames.

I have had Winrar 2.90 beta 2 installed for some time. It shows shareware reminders, but doesn't quit.
I'm uploading the same file as a ZIP.

Another good news.
Michael Puttré the author of the Eridani shipset hosted in my site, has reappeared (with a new email I didn’t have) and agrees to revise his pictures to see if he can upgrade the Eridani to the neo-standard.
BTW I didn’t ask him this, but now that I think about it that would be a nice looking shipset without a good original AI.

Oops. Silly me.
I was thinking of WinAce, not Rar .
I guess I just forgot to reinstall Rar since my HD got wiped out, and when the "unknown file type" thing showed up I jumped to the wrong memory.

Ok, here's the first draft of the NeoStandard VehicleSize.txt file for Devnull Mod. This is not an official mod file, I just wanted to try it out and see if this is correct. Also could be of use to some of working on shipsets.

One thing, we don't really have to call the StellarManipBarge that. Since the idea is just to be a name for a pic, not everyone is going to use it for Stellar manip components the way Devnull does. Maybe just Barge? Shorter is better.

Agreed go with "barge"

[dogscoff]

I agree with barge as long as we specify in the descriptuions that it is very big and very slow. Otherwise we'll get all kinds of inconsistent images.

I'll update the site tonight to reflect that change, the new worldship order (ie just one of them), S-J's infantry usage and those shipsets mentioned. There are a few other things I'd like to tidy up as well.

Approx 10 hours until next upload...


Zen: We're adding new images, not new ships. Just becasue we're making these images available doesn't mean that mods have to use them. Mods which already used extra ship sizes will already have had to alter their AI files to accomodate them. We're just making those extra sizes look nice=-)
