Very futuristic looking HV.
Nicely done.

You know what that actually might be it, ima try to delete some to see if that works.

Have you hit the cap of blueprint limits? tried removing some blueprints?
Commissar Kenji 20 Oct, 2022 @ 11:53pm 
Ive tried to verify them today but no luck :/ its not just you BPs this is happening too.
LyfeForse  [author] 10 Oct, 2022 @ 4:27am 
@Kenji, another person had a similar issue on a different build. They resolved it by validating files. Try that and let me know.
Commissar Kenji 7 Oct, 2022 @ 2:41pm 
ive tried that just not sure what happened lol im still looking into fixing this just been very very sick lately..
LyfeForse  [author] 7 Oct, 2022 @ 2:13pm 
Thanks for the kind words Tasty :steamthumbsup:

I really like this. Thanks for sharing your build.
LyfeForse  [author] 1 Oct, 2022 @ 4:18am 
When you sub to something, you have to restart the game for it to show up in blueprint listing. Have you tried that?
Commissar Kenji 27 Sep, 2022 @ 7:10pm 
I subbed but im not seeing it in blueprints :/
LyfeForse  [author] 28 Aug, 2022 @ 5:47pm 
Build has been update, thanks to everyone's feedback. Fixed air leak, and reset bridge/matrix cost to be efficient for Vanilla. Added additional cargo for Harvest 5.6k to 5.8k, Ammo 1 from 2.1k to 3.1k, and Ammo 2 from 1.5k to 2.1k.

Ok thank you Trizzle. was aware of the constructor, but didnt see the clone chamber one.
Trizzle 27 Aug, 2022 @ 6:12pm 
THIS IS NOT AIR TIGHT! I found this out the hard way. You have blocks behind the clone chamber and behind the constructor that are not air tight, preventing an atmosphere inside the tank and also a non climate controlled cockpit. Please fix this.

Luckily the artillery can push 500m avg accounting the different atmo thicknesses.
whitevalfore 26 Aug, 2022 @ 11:44pm 
Beware of the core's location, do not let the shields drop to 0.

This brings back memories of N64 battlezone years back before emperyrion came about.
LyfeForse  [author] 19 Aug, 2022 @ 3:48am 
lol, thats good to know. I don't think ive used lights as a block yet, but now I know what else to consider when building :steamthumbsup:
dndhatcher2 19 Aug, 2022 @ 12:08am 
BTW - sloped lights now are only airtight on one side. They caused an airleak on one of my builds. Doesnt make sense as it has 2 square sides.
dndhatcher2 19 Aug, 2022 @ 12:07am 
You need all of the tier or they do nothing. Three T4s do nothing until you add the 4th, then they take over and the T3s do nothing.

Reforged changes alot of mechanics to make more sense, and in some ways be more complex.
LyfeForse  [author] 18 Aug, 2022 @ 11:11am 
Oh, well I didn't even realize that about Vanilla, thats just goofy. Do you need to have all 4 of the t3's in for that to activate, or does it work with partial placement? I've got to update the build to fix an airleak, so i'll look at optimizing that, thanks!
dndhatcher2 18 Aug, 2022 @ 6:14am 
@lyfeForse - what Zaemar was telling you is accurate. CPU in Vanilla is not like reforged, only the highest expansions do anything. In vanilla you should remove the T2 core expansions when you put the T3 ones in, and remove the T3s when you put T4s in.
LyfeForse  [author] 16 Aug, 2022 @ 3:52pm 
Great to hear it working well for you Pmota. Good point about separating the arty turret grouping with others. I did make it in mind for co-op between driver/gunner, with the gunner having better control over target selection, so im glad to see it didn't go over everyone's head. Cheers!

Awesome HV. Took it to attack a drone base (RE, max difficulty settings) along with a smaller HV (anti-personel) and the Katraphact made short work of the towers and all the mechs that dared engage it. The artie took out transport ship after transport ship with 1-2 shots. Its shield held well, obviously against the dozes of zirax troopers I did have to retreat and re-engage a few times but the HV proved way more agile than it looks and emerged victorious. I strongly recommend separating the artie in another turret group so that the gunner passenger can find it and it never wastes ammo on its own. Pilot + gunner is highly recommendable so pilot can maneuver, fire missile+plasma front weapons and obviously make decisions based on shield status. Then stop for the gunner to have a stable weapon firing a couple of rounds at targets. It's great teamwork, great fun. THANK YOU for this awesome design!

Thank you Wazzuup! :)

Greetings

Amazing build! Looks very cool, imposing and military. This is right up the top with builders like JRandall with its own unique style. :diwrench:
LyfeForse  [author] 20 Jul, 2022 @ 10:22pm 
Zaemar, you are probably playing on a game with CPU turned off. Its at 60k / 100k, which means that it needs what it has, cheers. Dredgor, thank you :steamthumbsup:
zaemar 20 Jul, 2022 @ 3:40pm 
I'm looking for decent heavy duty tank (vanilla & PE) that actually goes through 9x5 hangar doors and this looks pretty good. I just spawned it in creative.
You might want to adjust the BP though because the T2 & T3 CPU's are redundant and not required.
DRedgor[RU] 20 Jul, 2022 @ 12:49pm 
Very, Very and Very COOL!!!!
AzaraiahZee 20 Jul, 2022 @ 7:19am 
Now we need J.Randall to make a Skaar variant xD
LyfeForse  [author] 19 Jul, 2022 @ 4:47am 
Thank you CrazyZ, I love your designs man!
CrazyZ 19 Jul, 2022 @ 1:10am 
That is the coolest looking tank I've seen so far. thumbs up!
LyfeForse  [author] 18 Jul, 2022 @ 3:20pm 
Thanks Jackmc. I've considered variants, though atm I have other builds in developement, so it will be later. Thank you Azariah. Good to know there's vibrant love for vanilla conversions. Thank you Bonedog, good to see you here giving love :steamthumbsup:
Bonedog 18 Jul, 2022 @ 3:11pm 
This may be just what i need in my playthrough. Subbed!
Nice work!
AzaraiahZee 18 Jul, 2022 @ 9:40am 
Thank you for making a vanilla one as well. I do not stay online continually and so mainly play vanilla :D
jackamc18 17 Jul, 2022 @ 5:58pm 
It's great. What you should do next is many color varieties Like Dubrovnik did with their survivor. It would look epic if it was full Camo, not saying it doesn't look epic now. Great Job!!
LyfeForse  [author] 16 Jul, 2022 @ 6:12pm 
Thank you Red. Thank you Sajuuk, that's high praise :steamthumbsup:
Red777 16 Jul, 2022 @ 12:52pm 
Well done!
SoullessBarbarian 16 Jul, 2022 @ 9:54am 
Yes, finally a good heavy battle-tank that looks decent and is small enough to fit inside most CV hangars. There are so many ugly designs out there, but this one looks great! It's rare for my to subscribe to other designs (I usually have a "I'll make it myself" philosophy) but in this case this is perfect.

Love how this looks like an actual sci-fi tank. Bless you for making a Vanilla version as well as an RE one.
LyfeForse  [author] 14 Jul, 2022 @ 10:37pm 
Lol Shep. Thank you Lyken!
lyken4 14 Jul, 2022 @ 9:30pm 
Holy cow! This is amazing 👏 🤩
Shepster_TCD 14 Jul, 2022 @ 8:59pm 
Finally!!! Now I can start stealing you blueprints and re-uploading them... Oh, did I say that out loud?
LyfeForse  [author] 14 Jul, 2022 @ 8:46pm 
Thank you Icewolfen!
icewolfen 14 Jul, 2022 @ 8:37pm 
I love your designs and coloring & texturing is epic!
