      ViB's Shipyard or Something...

      ...in which ViB shows off some ships he's built: So, I don't have a faction or a cool RP backstory or anything like that yet to justify having a "Shipyard," but I like to pretend that I have fans who are actually interested and looking forward to seeing the awesome(ish) ships I've been...

      Sexy Point Defense Turrets?

      Okay, so, I'm tired of all my PD turrets looking so ugly on my ships. I mean, seriously, I build a beautiful, sleek look ship, then I strap on the PD turrets and end up with a ship that looks like it has pimples! So I'm looking for some advice. How do you guys make PD turrets that don't look...

      Tertiary Weapon Effects - An Experiment, with Pics

      So, I just did a little off-the-cuff experiment with tertiary weapon effects and got some rather unexpected results. And then I took pictures of those results because I figured no one would believe me otherwise. I was slapping together a small sniper beam turret for a ship I've been making and...

      Slow Performance in Combat

      So, I'm having an ongoing issue where my game gets slow and laggy in combat. Specifically, after I successfully damage an enemy ship. I think the problem is related to block destruction, or the block destruction animation (where each destroyed block breaks into a bunch of little orange wedges...

      ViB's Von Neumann Probe

      RP Introduction: The alien and inscrutable Von Neumann Probes have been a scourge of the galaxy for decades. Glossy black pyramids, glowing with an eerie purple light, jumping randomly from system to system; never stopping; never communicating; attacking any and every vessel they encounter to...

      ViB's Rendition Class Battleship

      So, this post is a combination of the unveiling of my next build and cry for help regarding game performance. Basically, I've been working on a new warship build, using what I learned from my last build plus ideas I've stolen from the pics of keptick's Charon, and the result thus far is this...

      The Eye of Eridani - Rev 1

      Greetings All! I have myself a nearly finished ship that is in need of some constructive criticism. So, without further ado, I give you: The Eye of Eridani It's supposed to be both good-looking and functional. The giant eye beam is just a low power salvage array meant just for the...
