New Shipset! The Nosral Confederacy!

[Renegade 13]

(The set is available HERE and will soon be available on PBW and www.spaceempires.net, provided Fyron is willing to host.)

I started work on this set about 2 months ago, finished 2/3 of it then couldn't find the inspiration to make the remaining models different from what had already been done. I stuck it on the back-burner until yesterday when I started to complete it, then finally took a couple hours today to finish it off.

Before you ask, yes this shipset borrowed somewhat from the Phong, one of my favorite stock SEIV shipsets. As you'll see, it's also quite different, so I think it works. If you read the README and Credits, I lay it all out there just on the off chance that you're curious

If you have any criticism, comments, etc. please feel free to post them. Be totally honest, even if you hate the set This set is totally Neo-Standard compliant as well.

Below are a couple images, the Worldship and the Heavy Cruiser:

I notice that you have them called "Nosral Republic" in the AI_General file. Confederacy is a better name.

I love it!

Now go Wikify it: http://wiki.spaceempires.net/index.php/Shipsets_(SEIV)

Shiny !!!

I for one think it's very good.

Not a criticism, but just one thought to add, though - No mine, satellite, or fighter groups, and no fleet....

Oh crap....I didn't even think of them! Guess version 1.1 will be uploaded tonight, once I get those pic's together.

Thanks for letting me know!

A new download will be available tonight, with the missing images included.

I noticed the spelling errors after the latest upload, but decided it wasn't worth uploading it again just to fix a couple spelling errors.

However, when I decide to tweak something again, the changes will be made and credit given to those who pointed them out.

Oops! I'll have to fix that. Thanks for pointing it out! And also thanks so much for putting it up on SE.net.

Ace. you might also want to check that this page: http://wiki.spaceempires.net/index.php/Tyrellian is to your liking as well. The one I put up is pretty sparse.

BTW, I wanted to say that I love the way you've taken inspiration from the Phong ships without simply copying or recolouring them. It's a recognisable Phong-derived set, but still unique. Very good. I like the way you tweaked the race pic as well.

I'm happy you like the set PvK. I think I'll take your suggestion with the corvette/frigate issue, switching them should solve things.

I think I'll leave the LC/CR/HC as they are. It's kind of tempting to switch things around, but I also like them as they are.

I never was really happy with the infantry image, as the name implies it should be biological not mechanical. I can't do humanoid (Nosraloid!) pictures at all, so it kinda sucks as it is. However, you're right that it is far too large in comparison with the others, and I think I'll change it from a single large image to multiple smaller ones, as you suggested. It should look better.

I'll also take a look at the Light Carrier to see if I've made an error in the filenames, which is the most likely issue.

Thanks a lot for pointing out the issues you've seen, I should have time to fix all of them tonight and upload another new version. Think Fyron's going to get a little annoyed with me, new version every couple days Guess I'll have to stop making errors!
