Marius Fett Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Ah, now that's much more like it. You can really tell the difference between that and the regular Manaan now. Well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canderis Posted April 25, 2009 Author Share Posted April 25, 2009 Update: Well I need to spend another few grueling hours getting COs because the ones I got yesterday didn't work for some reason. I have updated the textures again: Show spoiler (hidden content - requires Javascript to show) Show spoiler (hidden content - requires Javascript to show) Show spoiler (hidden content - requires Javascript to show) Enjoy~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Fett Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 I rather like the signs in the first and third screenshots. Not too keen on the one in the second one though... Still, miles better than it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azzameen Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 @ Marius Fett: The sign in the second screenshot is a symbol Mandalorians use often. But it may be Fett's personal symbol, as it's been spotted on Boba's shoulder plates. @ Canderis: Looks like a pretty old station. Who built it?

Taak Farst Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 @ Canderis: Looks like a pretty old station. Who built it? O.o It's a mod..It's a complete reskin of the Manaan spaceport Very impressive - Team Hssiss seem to be doing awesome on modding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TriggerGod Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 It's a mod..It's a complete reskin of the Manaan spaceport I'm assuming he meant the backstory. I'm sure he knows full well that is Manaan, not a fully modeled area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yatsookey Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 @taak: we are doing our best and expect to have some mods released soon @canderis: i meant for those textures to be used for TLO's temple area but they seem to fit perfectly for the space station as well and to all thanks for continuing to follow team hssiss's process it has been difficult considering how many mods we have been trying to work on at the same time and we are definatly hitting some roadblocks but you should expect many things from us to be released within the coming months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xrefusex Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Random thought, but rather than have a planet in the sky, how about something like a series of black holes or worm-holes instead? Physics aside (as to why the station is not sucked in by gravity, but that can easily be explained in-game) it would kind of enhance the idea that the space station can get you to faraway places.

DarthParametric Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Except you can't actually see a black hole. Something like a nebula would be a better bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord of Hunger Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 @ xrefusex and DarthParametric: Thanks for the suggestions. Not that the skybox will be changed. We're not quite sure how yet but it will be changed. @ TriggerGod: Correct. We're working on the backstory for this Station. I'm trying to also create some side-quests, and one of them may involve some gangs (like the Black Vulkars and Hidden Beks, but way more bad***. @ Taak Farst: Thank you. We're rapidly gaining knowledge and experience. @ Canderis: As always, mate, nice job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drunkside Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Wow that looks even better now. I almost didnt reqognise the original area from the new screenshots! It looks like a completely new area, really good job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juansaman Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 That looks pretty good, nice idea!! I don't know how it works, but one thing I liked very much of the game was the Star Map. Is there any chance to create (maybe a bigger one) Star Map or a holographic Map with the location of the different worlds for you to select, then it opens the routine for landing to the selected world? Maybe it's a madness what I am saying.... Anyway, if there is going to be a control room, a holographic Map would be a nice detail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get to the different worlds from pilots but I will add a map in the control room making textures look good takes time it looking real nice keep at it Thanks!

xrefusex Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Except you can't actually see a black hole. Something like a nebula would be a better bet. Well, strictly speaking no, you can't see the black holes themselves, but you can see how they effect matter around them, like stars, planets etc being sucked in and swirling around the holes.

The Spy Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 You know, theres a few things now I need to ask. What's the story of this place? Is it a near abandoned haunted ship kinda thing? Cause if so then the appearance is grand If it's not, well then the appearance should be brighter, and the walls should be cleaner, and the floor should be a differeint color... Come to think of it, the floor could use a new color either way. And is that the only area? Cause if not, I'd like to know what your planning for the courtyards.

Canderis Posted April 26, 2009 Author Share Posted April 26, 2009 it is a 3 area mod. no it is not abandoned, far from it. It is owned by the exchange and they forgot about it and let it decay. There is no main story, a few side quests though. Its mainly to get to new planets and remove a main compatibility issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
logan23 Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 hey, For the space stations story: It is located on a cross road of many new hyperspace routes. The planet's system is under a hostile ruler, like a warlord,dictator. The station is mad from scaps of old warships and old space scraps. The planets ruler does not like the Republic so when the Jedi civil warr happen they took the opertunity to kick out off worlders. The space station is built and allowed to stay in the system if the statipn gives kickbacks to the planets ruler. The station was built by a company and in connection with planets ruler.

Canderis Posted April 26, 2009 Author Share Posted April 26, 2009 Due to another npc spawning problem, this one more severe than the last, we have to start from scratch again, don't worry though, the skin is fine. and this time, at least, we still have the COs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord of Hunger Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Regarding the Station Story: Canderis and I have discussed this. The station is called Halos Station, and is controlled by the Exchange. However, the Exchange doesn't enforce their rules there, so pretty much anything goes on as long as you don't bug the local Crime Lord. More info to come. EDIT: Okay we have a background story for this station. The planet you see in the screenshots is Halos. It was one ye normal inhabited planet until the inhabitants went to war and created a plague. The plague was so effective that it killed everyone there and is incurable. The only survivors were the inhabitants of the station, who eventually migrated to other worlds. Eventually the Exchange took over the station, but fail to enforce their rules effectively. In a side quest you will have the ability to influence control of the station to a point where you can hand it to just about anyone you want to (the Republic, Sith Empire, Hutts, Czerka, even Mandalorians).

redrob41 Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 The function of this mod (overcoming the shortfalls of the galaxy map) is exciting, the story sounds good, as well as believable, and the textures have come a long way in a short time. Keep up the good work. Feel free to use my Exchange & Czerka combat suits (and others) to help populate the station. Maybe they could be having some kind of power struggle for control of the station when your PC first arrives? Kind of like the Republic & Sith on Manaan.
