    • Dreamwave Shipyard Open!


      As many of you older members know (older = before Nova was around), the old Saber Studios website suddenly died one day thanks to a bundle of bad luck and a terrible day (losing all web files on both hardrive and web server). Even though the much of SS's content was gathered from webboard members and posted at the (url="http://"http://www.evula.com/shipyard/saberstudios/")Lair(/url), I've received many e-mails requesting that I get my own shipyard back and rolling again. Saber Studios generation 2 - also known as Dreamwave - has its (url="http://"http://dreamwave.evula.net/shipyard.html")shipyard(/url) open again, with both new ships previously unreleased and the old SS models (29 total at the moment). They are all for the EV / Override engine at the time, but I hope to be doing Nova sprites if I ever figure out how. 😛

      Just a heads up for you Override and EV developers.

    • So are you saying free graphics for everyone to use or your open to help on a plug? If you want to help on one I have the Ancients plug going wich always needs people so just say if your intrested. Oh yea those ships look great.

      Edit: I took a closer look at the new ones you did in infini-D they are some of the best Ive seen so far. Especially the target pict with the green around it. Oh yea look (url="http://"http://www.ambrosiasw.com/webboard/Forum9/HTML/003450.html")here(/url) for the rough draft of the introduction.

    • From reading his post I found it pretty obvious that Kyle was saying that the graphics on his site are free to use by anyone, not that he was available for a team. Im not sure whether he would join a team (but I very much doubt he would), but Im sure when Kyle replys he will answer that for you.

      Great graphics Capt'n K, glad to see them back up.

      If you ever frequent the EV Image gallery, Kyle/Skyblade posted an image of a podracer, and in that thread, he mentioned that he'd be off doing 3D for a while.

      The graphics are just free and available for plugins. Period. I've got no time whatsoever to be working on plugin projects with development teams at the moment (as much as I'd like to), and as matrix mentioned, I most likely won't have access to a 3D program for awhile. If you'll buy me a G4 tower, I can offer you some help. 😉

      Actually, all those ships were made with Infini-D. The earlier SS models were just my days as a beginner.

      ewan: Correct. I can't be working on plugins right now with life so crazy. Heh.

      Kame: Thanks. Use 'em. 😛 I still have my very ancient Azdgari and Zachit ship designs to upload (the first ships I ever made for an EV game), but that can wait until later. Proton, blaze, and phase weapons await a spot at Dreamwave as well.

    • Cool! That big freighters up and the fighter! Sweet 😄

      I will be doing a tutorial on NOVA sprites soon. Its designed for Strata, but the principals could be ported to Infini-D quite easily Im sure. Its going to be designed so that it can be used by pretty much any graphics program.

    • Sure, no problem! It would be great if you could adapt it.

      It will be put up along with everything else when I get the next revision of my site done.

      Alrighty, sounds good. Perhaps it'd also cut down on the "how do I do NOVA sprites" e-mails I've been getting. 😉 It's frustrating to say I have no clue... at the moment.

      Looking forward to that update. The site looks great.

    • Great site Kyle! ButI have one request, the text that is above the pictures in the shipyard and the texture depot, could you make that a link to the same page because every time I go there, and am sure a few others do this too, I try to click on the text above the picture.

      Aye, I suppose I could do that, but any experienced web surfer will know that most text not underlined and with different colors within the words is not a link. But if that's a confusing issue, I could either change the fancy text to just a standard link, or perhaps give the category images a visible border to make the links obvious.

      Thanks for the thought - I'll see what I can do.
