    • Ship Graphics


      I'm making a hyperioid major mission string and I need some ship graphics. I am not to good at Strata and I don't know how to export the ships (any help on how to export the ships will be greatly appreciated). I just need the last two ships shown below. Please reply if you can do them. Thanks!

      PS This plug will get done. It is fairly small so I won't just dump it.

    • I'm working on the "circle" one right now. How big should it be? Right now I'm making it about the same size as a standard Hyperiod.

    • Thanks for the quick reply. Maybe a little larger than the standard hyperioid. Thanks again!!!

    • Get the "circle" Hyperoid (url="http://"http://www.rail.com/peter/RLEs.bin")here(/url). You should change the ID's of the rle8/D's before you make a shan out of them. When you make the shan, use the same animation settings as the regular Hyperoid ("use extra frames in sequence", animdelay of 5). I'll get started on the triangle one.

      (edit) Is the triangle shaped ship you drew supposed to be symmetrical or not? I can't tell from the picture, but I think it's asymmetrical. (/edit)

      (edit2) I finished rendering the triangle Hyperiod. You can now get both sets of sprites from the URL above. Same comments apply about ID's and shan's. (/edit2)

    • Wow!!! Sweet!!! If it is not to much to ask, I was thinking that the triangle ship would be more longer than wide. But if it will take more than 5 minutes, never mind. It looks great how it is! Thanks!
      (edit) Should I credit you as Vaumnou? (/edit)
