The Artillery bow of the destroyer is missing a lot of its skin. Like the hull is missing and all teh bits are floating.
marchin_81  [author] 7 Feb, 2023 @ 12:12pm 
ahhh... crap, lol.

thanks for pointing that out.

I updated the pages with the links and apparently copy/pasted the whole thing and not just the links.
Foster 7 Feb, 2023 @ 12:02pm 
should probably update this to better fit the centauri, since the description was copy and pasted from earth force.

yes the problem i play with my mac and since the new update mods no longer work with mac, it always crashes at 80% :(

this is Awesome! if you do Earth Force ships I will literally die! the Certifuges are one of my fav things in all of sci fi!

unfortunate to hear, though I'm not sure what the issue could be. I just tried starting a game with the set myself and didn't have any issues starting the game. So I'm not sure what to suggest as far as solutions-- or in helping better understand the problem itself.
lukacslaszlo0610 14 Jan, 2023 @ 3:11am 
Hey thanks for the great set, but unfortunately they don't work for me when I select them and the game doesn't load anymore. Unfortunately I don't know what the problem could be.

I am impressed even the Long rangers future ship in the set.
"impressive" chhuuu

ooh, thanks. I'll have to look that up.

I might be able to help at least a little with the space station problem. There is another Centauri base featured very briefly in an episode. At least I believe it's a Centauri base. It's the one raider ships were operating out of just before the outbreak of the Alliance-Centauri war. Season 5, episode 15 from 31:06 to 31:10. It's defiantly bigger looking then the outpost we saw when the Narn attacked the the colony Lando's nephew was at.

There is a Centauri Space Station in the Babylon 5 Show. You only get to see it for about 10-30 seconds before it gets blown up. It appeared in Season 1.

yeah, it was a situation where I really liked the model and wanted to use it, but at the same time I don't like how large the window is for a corvette. so i may end up modifying it a bit to remove that cockpit window and make it feel a bit larger.

as far as designs go though, I just liked it a lot. and figured there are others out there like me who sometimes use corvettes with a heavy attack ship/swarm mentality. for that role, it just looks much cooler in a swarm than the other models available. but the cockpit window I do want to do something about. either breaking it out so it's instead a row of windows, giving it a slimmer bridge window and making the rest hull, or just removing it all together-- with the idea it's a similar design, but unique.

would also replace the single missiles on the undercarriage with something more like a multi-missile launcher.

but, that was the main reason. as far as cool attack ship, the existing scout model was just a bit underwhelming.
cailean_556 10 Jan, 2023 @ 1:36am 
EDIT: You already have that model in your mod - sorry, my mind is in more than one place currently, what I meant was swap that out for the fighter and just drop the fighter from the roster entirely - it would help with having to deal with fewer ship models also.

You could just (I know it's easy for me to say, much harder to do) change the hue of the purple on the corvette model to tell it and the secondary/picket hull apart if that's what you were trying to go for.
cailean_556 10 Jan, 2023 @ 1:29am 
My only critique of this shipset is that a fighter model is the Frigate. There was a similar mod for a game (way old these days) called Space Empires V - the model you use as a corvette (or one similar) was slightly enlarged and a brighter purple coloured hull, and had three 'wings' (one top, two sides). Perhaps that could be your frigate? (at least it's a ship and not a single-pilot fighter)

Granted, they also use a 'fighter type' model as their destroyer... I edited my own version of the shipset, so 'my' destoyer was a scaled down version of their light cruiser and removed their destroyer model entirely.

My only other suggestion is that the Colossus be a Primus battlecruiser with a mass driver attached to the ventral side. The upside is, it's the same model you already have, just with an elaborate 'rock-thrower' attached underneath.

Food for thought, anyway. Great shipset, look forward to seeing more B5 shipsets from you (and Lukav).

lukav, sent you a message on discord. I've actually been bouncing back and forth between a few different ones: an earth force shipset, a minbari shipset, and a brakiri shipset. each has their own issues, though. well... minbari is likely straight forward. but, ef I want the sections to rotate and have the same problem with too many models as here. brakiri it's a lack of assets-- at least as far as stations are concerned.
Salad_Mask 9 Jan, 2023 @ 8:30am 
I love that series)
LukavSlambert 9 Jan, 2023 @ 8:28am 
Good job! Keep it up. But please notify me when you decide to work on other B5 mods, you have my discord. We don't wanna work on the same ones, do we? :)
marchin_81  [author] 9 Jan, 2023 @ 8:23am 
thanks. the whole pink and purple color scheme was... a bit challenging, ha. esp since I like a more gritty and realistic look.

This is probably the last time I will use so many different models like this, though. mostly b/c I learned placing the locators for where weapons fire is frustrating. I'm thinking it might be better to limit vanilla designs to maybe one model, and then include a few more as new, unique ship classes.
Justicar 8 Jan, 2023 @ 7:16am 
Looking good!
marchin_81  [author] 7 Jan, 2023 @ 3:55pm 
I do when I need it-- on the discord.

There some very talented modders here in the Workshop -- why you don't ask for their help?
marchin_81  [author] 7 Jan, 2023 @ 12:50pm 
really though, this is only my second mod. and I'd like zero experience doing any of this or using any of these programs. so they're all a bit of a work in progress from that standpoint. I still want to get into turrets for instance, maybe make it so they move etc. and for an earth force shipset I want to learn how to make sections rotate. so as I learn and get better, I'll definitely update things.

for now though it's more... I enjoy making these, and I'm mostly making them b/c I wanted them myself.
marchin_81  [author] 7 Jan, 2023 @ 12:50pm 
no problem. and I fixed the description I'd cut off.

the sentri, I might adjust the window just so it looks more like windows and feels a bit bigger. but, yeah I just really liked that one. that crescent moon shape makes for a nice attack ship. I could've used one of the models I used for destroyers instead, since there are 3 different ship models for destroyers, but I wanted to try and give this one a bit more diversity. not just one model for everything. there are pros and cons to doing that I learned, though.
paulo 7 Jan, 2023 @ 12:20pm 
Thanks for answering my questions.
marchin_81  [author] 7 Jan, 2023 @ 12:18pm 
ah, crap. I accidentally cut off the rest of the description when I updated it before going to sleep. Never work super late, I suppose...

To answer, I used the Sentri because I just rather like the look of it; and wanted a separate model for the corvette and frigate.

the starbase, colossus, and the large military base I do need to add, so on that one yes. starbase especially, only one diamond shaped base was ever shown and I already used that a few times. so just have to think about what the starbase would look like etc and prob make it from scratch.

ship sizes... I can check if the science ship is too large, but in general I Just make them vanilla size and then adjust things a bit until I'm happy with it. And, at least the construction ship I knew I was making a bit larger. Biut, B5 all the ships were massive.
paulo 7 Jan, 2023 @ 10:15am 
Question: is this mod a work in progress? I am asking this because you are using a Sentri class fighter as frigate and the Mammalian Citadel and Colossus models instead of using something more... Centauri.
Also, why the Science ships of both this and the Vorlon shipsets look so big in the empire cards?

oh yes daddy
