AEG-77 Vigo Gunship
Posted: Sun Feb 04, 2018 11:06 pm
This weekend I found an old project entirely by chance, I thought that I had lost it but apparently it was lying around on a hard drive somewhere.
I present to you the AEG-77 Vigo Gunship from Star Wars Galaxies.
The AEG-77 Vigo was a transport vessel of the criminal Black Sun organization that was also used by Xizor Transport Systems and other organizations and individuals at the time of the Galactic Civil War. Some ships were heavily modified for use as convoy escorts.
The ship provided lots of space for passengers and cargo. Its interior included three decks connected by two elevators, an observation room, a large bridge, a recreation room, an engineering room, and a cargo hold. Modified versions were equipped with two forward mounted guns, four dorsal mounted turrets, and two ventral mounted turrets.
The AEG-77 Vigo was originally used as light defended transport vessels by the Black Sun and also later by other organizations, including Xizor Transport Systems and the Hutt cartels. As they became known for their light weaponry, more and more transports were attacked and captured by pirate gangs, especially those smuggling valuable cargo for Black Sun. To counter this threat to its profits, Black Sun decided to modify some of their cargo transports into heavily defended gunships that would act as escorts for the rest of their convoys.
Relevant Details:
Provided files include:
AEG-77.Opt
AEG-77 Vigo Gunship.shp
AEG-77 hull, map, and skirmish bmps for the dat files
AEG-77 Readme
The ship fills slot 103 by default, and in the UCP's case replaces the Delta 7, FYI.
The AEG being a heavy gunship it has heavy shielding and hull that can take a pounding.
Dimensions wise it's approximately 50m wide, 100m long, and 25m tall.
The Opt currently has 6x quad laser cannons, and 2x missile launchers.
And for the sake of transparency, as the quad lasers supplied with the original model were ridiculously over detailed I utilized the ones off of the YT1300 by Master Qui-Gon, who has of course been given all due credit.
Known issues:
There's possibly a gap somewhere I've missed filling.
Download
I would also appreciate it greatly if DS, DTM, and/or GT would be willing to host it.
