Where do you expect to find an ocean large enough to float that?

[Prototype]

It's currently scaled up to 1.2x it's original size (compensates for humans not being 2m tall and 1m wide), however I think I'm going to need to scale it down... It's still not even remotely configured properly, but I'm expecting there to be a lot of problems. Depends on how Flan develops the boat code from what it is now.

Most proper minecraft oceans are more than enough. You could easily sail something twice the size of this in one.

[Shadowcatbot]

We really do need a good boat mod that has a number of deep water ships.

Boats could be interesting... If someone ever makes a decent submarine mod we could actually have something kind of like starships.

@Proto: I haven't done much for the designs that I said I was going to have finished a few days ago because pretty much all of my time has been spent on schoolwork, worrying about schoolwork, and sleeping.

Don't worry about it if you're not getting the time. I can keep myself pretty occupied.
As for starships... If this boat is anywhere near practical, I can maybe use the VTOL mechanic to make starships. But that's a very big maybe.

Also, I've put the boat on hold for now while the mechanics get fleshed out a bit, and I'm currently challenging myself to recreate the VF-1A I did with MCheli in Flan's mod.

This is the original:



This is what I'm on now:

I have to say, Manus's new toolbox is sodding powerful.

[Error]

If I can learn to use that and it has a mirror function, I can mebbe-sorta make stuff. Programming and such is not my realm, though.

[Prototype]

Toolbox 2 pretty much sorts out all the programming stuff. If you made a model with it I could quite feasibly get it working in game so long as you provided the .mtb file and the texturemap.

Unfortunately it's still in beta so there are no real tutorials, but you can get it from here:

If you successfully replicate the VF-1A, I will love you forever.

Good work, man.

[Prototype]

Well I've finally worked out how to make propellors properly, and so I've put some animated turbines inside of the intakes. Also Manus added a neat new HUD part that always faces down, and provides a pretty cool effect.

As for the model itself, I can quite safely say it's as good as it's MCheli conterpart so far, which is quite an acheivement.

If boat work, Aigaion is the logical next step.

[Prototype]

Aigaion is too fast, plus we need actual carrier capabilities before I can do it any justice. I'll settle for Variable fighters for now. If I can get fighter mode sorted I can probably re-jig it into GERWALK mode as a mecha.

[Shadowcatbot]

Carriers inbound starbot.

Carriers

My life for Aiur.

You need additional pylons.



So Proto, flan planing anything special?

[Prototype]

Not that I currently know of.
