4 great new releases!
Posted: Sat Nov 17, 2018 11:00 am
Boy do we have a treat for you guys! The boys behind the scenes have been very productive and we are ready to give you 2 new releases and 4 upgrade releases!
So better strap in and make sure your joystick still works!
Firstly and for the second time we have the CR90 Corvettes
From Top to Bottom and Left to Right you have "The Liberator", "Farstar" (Single Hangar), "The Fulcrum", "The Phoenix", "CR90 with Cargo Module" and the "Freedom" (Dual Hangar).
The New CR90 Corvette Models and Textures are by Andrew Barragan (Barraganap) and used with permission.
Driftwood cut and split the craft into usable meshes added the textures and made all of them usable for XWA.
Darksaber has then refined the models by aligning a few of the meshes, adding a LOD model, recoloured some of the textures, adding rotation to the Gun Turrets and Comm Relays adding Hangar opts and enhancing the look of the dual hangar version of the Corvette named "Freedom".
There are 7 options for the CR90 Corvette in total, each having a slightly different configuration
Like the Nebulon B Frigate's installer options, which ever option you select will be your primary option, but the installer will copy all the other versions of the opt models to your Flightmodels folder. It will then be up to you to decide how best to use them in your own missions, thanks to JeremyFr's "Craft Hook" features. This is an opportunity for advanced users. Please read the Editor Section to learn about it.
Included in the installer are all the latest "Hooks" (latest "Hook" update September, 23rd 2018) these will install silently and replace the "Hooks" if newer.
-Have Fun
Next up the updated Firespray Attack Ship aka Slave1
Currently we don't have new renders for this one, but I hope to get to that soon!
Special thanks to JérémyaFr, and some very creative modding by DTM, the Firespray now rotates into a landing position as first seen in the Empire Strike Back on the Cloud City Landing Platform.
The first completely new model is Warb_Null's awesome interpretation of the
XQ5 Platform
This one makes me especially happy since the stations have always been the most under-remodeled crafts we have. And boy is this one looking sweet:
And last but certainly not least is yet another great model from Warb_Null
Pinook Fighter
Another really great model with some cool new ideas. Make sure to check this one out closely:
