Prototype's temporary and somewhat dissapointing development log

Anybody up for re-enacting the battle of Yavin? We don't have any Y-wings, or TIE advanced's, but that's not a huge problem.

Well then make some! It would be pretty awesome.

I'll work on a 1-1 scale replica of the death star.

This is the last non-original I do, someone else can do them.

Nice work, proto!

Yes ! I actually qutie like the way you made the cockpit  .

Absolutely beautiful.

Can we get an astromech droid hanging out in there?

I didn't make one, If I did it would have to be R2D2 (this is skywalkers X-wing)

Actually. With Flans new turrets on planes thing, I could make the X-wing carry a hidden co-pilot who controls R2

Hey Proto, do you think you'd have the time to do some texture work for https://futurecraft.forumotion.com/t1643-futurecraft-rts-project?

I can texture VERY well but what is it for. I read the post but I still don`t understand.

Futurecraft RTS. I make 3d models of designs people submit, but right now they're just sitting there with no textures. Note: 3D models, not techne bawxes or anything Minecraft related.

If I get the time I'll try, but I've for a few other problems right now, and I can't say how long they'll last.

Flan's mod has updated to 1.6.2.

No it isn't.

It is, and Manus has just updated the toolbox and everything.

But I don't know when I'm going to get time to do all this, have a few problems right now, and I can't say exactly when I'll be able to update. Configuring everything to the new features is going to take a while, and I haven't even properly finished the X-wing model (though I am considering putting this in a separate pack as a bonus included with the main pack.

Plus I just ordered GTA V, which might hinder progress

Why would you pre-order a console exclusive? Isn't there a movement on their site to prevent a port to PC, or something? How far will you go for Rome Liberty City?

It's Los Santos, not Liberty city.

And my PC is a potato, for me at least it's better to get it for console.

I have no idea about an anti PC movement, now that is stupid.

And I didn't pre-order it, just normal ordered it.

Right, I haven't exactly been doing much on this lately, but it looks like I'm finally going to have enough time to actually work on this, so I've been planning my course of action for when I get to work on it (hopefully in the next couple of weeks)

My current immediate to do list is:

1: finish the X-wing, I plan to put this into its own content pack, and have it as a bonus to the main pack, that sorts the issue of diluting the main packs original content, and means I don't have to waste a perfectly good model

2: update to 1.6.2 (or 1.6.4), could take a while

3: make a better model for the bike.

Now, I don't really like the current bike model for several reasons, 1, it isn't futuristic enough, 2, the model isn't very good (front mudguard turns weird) and 3, I sold my Reiju.

I have come up with a new concept design, turning the conventional bike into a hover bike, and I've based the looks on my favourite thing to come out of Austria, the KTM Duke.

This is the current concept (yes this can al, be done in Techne)




Now this is only a concept, but it would be useful to know what people think of it now.

I would stick some sort of engine inside the Trellis frame (that cage like bit in the middle of the bike) but I haven't drawn that in there.

I think it's good.

Well that’s a standard hover bike , you can go wrong with that .

Looks like a snowbike to me.

I based the body off this:

Looks similar enough.
(at least form the side)
Also considering repulsors are flat (like skids/tracks), my point is valid.

Ok, got the new stuff working in game, releasing an update for 1.5.2:

Edit: apparently Flan is working on mechs/robots, I am definitely making the Lamentor.

Interesting.
