Orbiter Screenshot Thread

Reflections:



Maybe we could make vehicle mirrors in this way

Touring NYC in an helicopter is loads of fun!



I really need to complete this add-on. But man did I bite off more than I could chew with that one. Especially since I don't have as much free time as when I worked on Québec. It feels threatening lol

 

[LadyCroussette]

yeah okay I may have done some work on it today.
Totally was listening to GTA TBOGT's Vladivostok FM radio while working on this lol

Not completed obviously.

Made a brig mesh for Orbiter, then realized I have no idea how to program a brig for Orbiter


So, you know, if someone wanted to try something with it, here is the mesh and textures.

Thanks; you did a nice job with this. It sails into low Earth orbit fine, but reentry is a challenge.






Peace,

Now, where is Harlocks Arcadia....

Amazing xD

Also, you know what I just realised? I didn't even give the Puffin a figurehead smh

@Thunder Chicken can make it float and sail in Orbiter.
By the way, great mesh and textures!

I could make the flag flutter too.

Checking out the RSS on LC39A:

SSV virtual cockpit upgrade.

I would rather expect the R.L.S. Legacy...

I claim this space program in the name of the King!



It floats. 300 long tons seems to be a good displacement.

Maybe the sails could also be slightly animated this way (even just a simple predefibed looping animation).

But maybe not, so it's not good idea (animation for sails).

Animating the mesh vertices is rather expensive, and there is a lot of sail. I think I can take sails up/down, but animating them will need to be considered carefully.

Yes, I agree, and sail animation may look strange, since the sail should be tense.

This look amazing! Though looking at the first screen it look like the ship may be a bit too high on the water? Like the waterline should be a bit higher. Then again, maybe its just fine and the position of the ship is what give the illusion it's floating a bit too well.

Btw, I can edit the mesh if you need some sort of modification for animations and such. So don't hesitate to ask (I was thinking myself of adding some kind of lamps so some light sources could be added to see the ship in the dark. At bit like in Assassin's Creed, so I may wind up modifying the mesh anyway.


Also I think I'll make a few tiny bases in the Caribbean to sail to and from. Nothing fancy, just for the sake of having destinations for the ship.

I think you should move this discussion into a new thread, since it could easily escalate and Hornblower was already summoned. Its only a matter of time until Patrick O'Brian is mentioned.
