Nice work!
Is the Spire 1:1 scale?
Would be awesome to see an Atlantis city ship in full scale. A Destiny also. ;-)

No I don't think so, it should also be an (extremly) roughly 1:4 scale, I would love to complete Atlantis, even at 1:4 scale. Which is probably what I will work on to maintain continuity with my other builds that are simply too large for both my computer and Starmade, that is somewhat of a longer project though, but I do indeed plan on completing it, also yes probably the Destiny as well, for all the faults of SGU, it was a great concept and I did like the show. However, the Destiny is small enough for a 1:1 build which is great.

I wonder how it'd look if it was made with slabs instead of the slopes.

Hmm yes, maybe I'll make my own using slabs some day.

Maybe when I return to my roots in Starmade and make Asgard ships, I'm actually Norwegian so I have a real soft spot for those grey adorable Norse gods and Asgard ships are the first ships I ever tried making. And I mean you know, I'd need something to shoot at with those Ion cannons and Plasma beams.
[doublepost=1543910192][/doublepost]Sorry for the inactivity, been busy watching Yogs do the Christmas Livestreams and trying to fix my circadian rhythm again, will work more on the Aurora today.
[doublepost=1543910235][/doublepost]And you know what, maybe even some Asgard ships, it's a big mood
[doublepost=1543911765][/doublepost]Just to entertain your curiosity Lone_Puppy, the Latin for "Destiny" is Fatum, and I have exactly one blueprint named just that.

But no promises.

Made a rough Outline of a Belskirnir Asgard Mothership, and my god the recoil on those Ion cannons on the wings is ridiculous. Will also have to redo the head of the hammer because it looks too small compared to the rest of the ship atm.


Also went around the hull of the Aurora after I found some random holes in the armour to check if there were more.

[doublepost=1543919655,1543917516][/doublepost]Finishing up the underside of the hull

[doublepost=1543921305][/doublepost]Already looking just so much better

Before:

After:

Added another much needed bathroom

Added a Life support control centre


Connects to those bathrooms I made earlier today through a door behind the columns here.



Which further leads to the bridge through this connection hub.

View from the outside towards the windows in the Life support control room.

[doublepost=1543937118,1543935682][/doublepost]Put some more text around the exterior, because it looks nice

Gave some much needed love to the sides of the hangar bays

Decided to update my cruiser to the power update, and to also redo the interior of it because the interior is currently a massive disappointment.
Haven't really gotten to the interior yet, as attempting to escape interior design is partly why I updated it, but anyway here are some pretty pictures of the exterior


Compared to the Aurora it's actually a sizeable cruiser

It was nice to get a break from the Auroras interior design, even though I am mostly just putting in some finishing touches, in the meantime, I really enjoyed retrofitting one of my only original designs and redoing the interiors of it. Here are some pictures to show the style I went with, sort of a more low-tech - industrial, yet still very advanced, if that's even a valid description


This will be some sort of control hub that will connect to most of the ship's corridors. It's not lit though, will have to give it a better stereo for that.




Should maybe consider just renaming this thread into something broader, so I don't feel bad posting about other ships than the Aurora hahahaha

Considering making a few of these type of internal features on the Aurora, to make the Life support more visible, but idk I for some reason feel it would look too "low-tech", but idk really am working on implementing it and making it look adequately Lantean.





[doublepost=1544105561,1544104046][/doublepost]Here's one of the ideas I have for making the Life support systems on the Aurora more visible, sort of inspired by the CO2 scrubbers on Destiny, in that these also extend out from the walls

Please be kind to my mad logic skills clearly visible here...
[doublepost=1544105743][/doublepost]And then maybe this is how the vents would look like

[doublepost=1544106626][/doublepost]Man I just went around looking for literally anywhere where this would fit and you guys would not believe how much wide open space there is; except for where I would desperately need it in this case
[doublepost=1544107104][/doublepost]Found somewhere to place one scrubber, and it's still somewhat sketchy looking because of how the intervals of the lights are relatively short here, but it's a start

[doublepost=1544107596][/doublepost]Found space for another scrubber, literally 30 metres away from the first one

Forced in a few more CO2 scrubbers






[doublepost=1544110799,1544109683][/doublepost]Pretty much everywhere is now covered by these scrubbers

Pretty cool to compare these two pics



LOOK HOW NAKED IT LOOKS

[doublepost=1544126313,1544126136][/doublepost]I'm going to bed

Added a Storage Crate to store some CO2 scrubbers in the Life support control room


Also redid the Hyperdrive a bit, it's now a walkway-y thing with some consoles


Also added a Hyperdrive maintenance room and access port


Has a forcefield to help shield the maintenance crew before they're suited up to do maintenance



The door into the chamber will not open unless the forcefield is up, and therefore once you close the door into the chamber the forcefield lowers


Might not be too much activity in the coming week as the Christmas livesteams this week interests me, so will power through this weekend to try to get as much as possible done.

Also made the hangar bays a bit more pretty and added capacity for two more jumpers

Also made an actual place to house patients, not just to figure out what's wrong with them and to treat whatever's wrong with them


An office and control panel for the quarantine shield

Even a bedroom for one person to sleep whilst another watches over the patients


Room for 10 patients, roughly 1/12 of the crew which is decent-ish

Direct access to the medical scanners

[doublepost=1544276530,1544272938][/doublepost]Added a Crew lounge to one of the more open connection hubs

[doublepost=1544277264][/doublepost]Work will slow down as my PC is literally on its deathbed, working on a server really helps out, however, if I don't have my window open it does tend to crash even then. So yeah currently sitting here writing this, cold because I'm not wearing any socks looking at a new computer; so I guess I have until summer to finish all the big ships that I'm working on.
Here's a GIF to lighten the mood

[doublepost=1544280798][/doublepost]Update: Put on some socks

Not getting much done anymore, the PC issue is to blame there, but I was able to add in some exposed RP-Main power conduits to certain critical areas of the ship





[doublepost=1544527310,1544526250][/doublepost]Also fixed this doorway, never really liked the way it looked before and those irregular doors are quite aesthetic in my opinion.

[doublepost=1544527855][/doublepost]Currently going around the old rust bucket fixing these motherboards being stupid when being loaded from a template


Also found a mistake I made when making these inset lights here and fixed it

Really the only thing left is to add an ungodly amount of stasis pods now, but otherwise, the ship is done

Some cinematic shots because I like how the ship looks




[doublepost=1544624549,1544624014][/doublepost]Considering filling in all the unused empty space with reactor stabilizers before potentially releasing the ship, just to try and get the reactor up to 100% efficiency and make the ship completely solid. I can't really think of any more rooms to add for RP either, so unless anyone has any suggestions of something I might have missed or forgot to add I'll probably start filling in later tonight.

Long time since my last post, sort of did the forgetting about the game thing again, and well here we go again.
Status quo is still the same, my computer is a pile of shit and it really cannot handle too much starmade, nevertheless, I'm booting her up to see how the ship is doing; hope everyone is ready for some "quality" screenshots of things you've already seen a million times but hey, on the bright side(?) I'm releasing the ship at some point in the future.


I'm sure everyone will be happy to know that my self-deprecating sense of humour is still the same, perhaps even worse by now though.
[doublepost=1557246896,1557245707][/doublepost]I have a sneaking suspicion that all those things spinning might have something to do with the massive drain on processor power this ship is...
[doublepost=1557249477][/doublepost]Added more reactor stabilisers now that the energy stream is no longer a "feature", the reactor is now 85% stable and the ship now has a mass exceeding 470 KT

keep it up man, looks very nice

Stargate ftw

Thanks man, doing my best

Looking for things to fill up all that empty space since filling it with stabilisers was more efficient than I had anticipated, so I made another R&D lab





[doublepost=1557338536,1557337148][/doublepost]Reactor is now 100% stable
