alright, so heres the story. i found this app called pimp my gun (http://pimpmygun.doctornoob.com/index.php) and saw that someone had made something that looked like a ship. everytime i see a ship in 2d i instantly think of GSB, so i did what any modder would. i started experimenting.
Ow, very interesting designs, they are very moddable, lol, nice shapes to fit the turrets and make glows / tractors, are we expecting a new ancient race here???
P.D.: i coudnt stop imagining, those ships will be very easy to model on SU, and the final result will be awesome, think about it!!. -.-
Excellent find, Shylo! It also beats the hell out of the built-in color chooser in standard phpBB forum software (i.e., ours). What delicious insanity.
I had an idea a while back for something like this but using GSB parts. For example, there would be an engines tab with engines from each race, bridges tab, main hulls, etc. I got the Alliance, Federation, and Empire engines and PMed them to Kemp suggesting he put a “ship builder” like that in GSBEdit (which reminds me to check that project’s progress) and I can post them here if anyone wants, although its not really that hard to do yourself.
It is indeed on my list, and may actually get done one day. I have to admit, I haven’t touched GSBEdit recently unfortunately due to real life getting in the way. I will make it up to you guys though (assuming there is still a potential userbase for the app).
