Project XR2 Ravenstar - Mk II

[dbeachy1]

Both Steve and I have been tied up with our RL jobs for the past few months, but we chatted via Skype just this morning and work on the ship will continue shortly. There is no tentative release date yet, but hang in there.

Have you started coding it yet?

Wow, this ship looks awesome! Definetly looking forward to this release!

 

[ElHombre]

I am really looking forward to taking this craft out for a spin. Heck, I may even not fly it onto the ground on my first hop the way this thing looks like it was born to fly.

Just to keep you all updated, i've tidied up a couple of things that were bugging me, added a new feature - which is probably not that useful but it's something i wanted to put in, and uploaded the first version of the geometry and textures to doug to begin coding when he has the time. So the project is definately moving forwards, i'll be continuing to work on a few things, textures, interior while doug does all the hard work of the coding.

Thanks for all the comments and support so far, it's nice to know the work is appreciated and that people will want to fly it when it's finished.

How about spinning hubcaps on the landing gear!:rofl:

 

[unussapiens]

And a massive spoiler on the back!

Not to mention the 24 speaker sound system.

 

[Coolhand]

I am impressed by this outstanding ship (I even use a pic of her as avatar)

I am courious about her dimensions. How is it compared to XR1?

PS

[Coolhand]

woo482 is aaaaaalll about the furry dicez...

Coming to a cockpit near you? Nah, probably not.

santy, compared to the xr1, its about 1/3rd longer and slightly wider, carries about 3 times as many people too, i think there may be a comparison pic on the first page links?

 

[Woo482]

Does this Have Ummu like the other XR planes?

 

[Coolhand]

Well it's got nothing but furry dice right now, but yes when it's released it will support UMMU like the others.

 

[Woo482]

ok and is thear a way on the xr 2 to Allow passenger's to escape in a emergency?

 

[Coolhand]

Yeah, but it involves furry dice.

 

[Woo482]

COOL ! I WANT THEM DICE

 

[TSPenguin]

Those dice as break chute!
Please PM me before you release the ship with those. I'll need to call an ambulance beforehand!

 

[Woo482]
