Description
Okay so I needed to test some station death models so to ensure I would in fact win my space battles I went ahead and coded myself starting GC with the Rep. Battleship. Although I got a little worried when the bugs and droids killed my other ships and surrounded me with fighters. So I slowed down the speed at which the Banking Clan gun platform (Station Lvl 2) falls from orbit when it dies. I think it looks a little better now.
Did you edit the animation or just slow it down 'cause an explosion or three mid-animation can really help and hide the model from disappearing out of thin vacuum.
Just slow it down from 300 to 500 frames
Hey, so I know its early days with any updates for this mod, but I was wondering, have you thought about replacing the Republic Battleship with the Mandator? As much as I love the ship, I feel like having an Old Republic era Mandalorian Dreadnought floating around amidst Clone Wars-era stuff is a bit odd... and the Mandator is cannon (in Legends) to the period. I also feel like being able to build multiples of them kind of breaks balance a little, again its awesome but by that point in the game I'm just rofl-stomping the CIS with fleets full of them and it gets far less challenging.
If you choose to do so, would love to see the Procurator alongside it too :D
Well I love the design and I didn't want to use the mandator since its job during the war was protecting Kuat. Besides I don't wanna just copy RAW. The Republic Battleships although not seen in any source images were the ships that did participate in the war although not too many engagements since Venators and Acclamators were much more numerous. Who is to say some engineer on Kuat wouldn't take inspiration for a ship design from old legends of a Mandalorain ship. :)
You make a very valuable point! That said, I guess the RaW team is rather good at what they do I suppose :P that and I'd say your mod has enough differences to it that you could risk it :P You seem pretty comfortable with your choice though so I won't push the topic any further then that haha
Perhaps you could add a lick of Republic war paint on it, perhaps a few symbols maybe? I feel as it is, that its a bit bland. Also I think there really needs to be a limited recruitment, these things are beastly!
Agreed
Whoop, whoop!
