Thank you and sorry for the error, the browsers I am using simply refuse to open it.

I propose the contest is ended on April 3rd.
Mar 28, 2004 Pyroman_Ace link
April 3rd is too soon, if the contest needs to be moved up for some reason, then I'll give at least 2 weeks warning and get input from judges and contestants. The contest was designed to work with people's busy lives and also give them plenty of time to craft multiple ships and retouch them as they pleased.

Quite an array of craft there Urza. Very nice work though.

Well, a couple of years back (high school), I used a truly awful modeler known as Pixels 3D Studio Free Edition to create some models during the many skipped classes I spent in the computer lab. Here are a few of them:

If any of them were entered in the contest, I'd pick beefighter, jet-fighter, executive and quad.

ctishman, if you finish developing all those models to the rules I'd love to have them entered. All I assume are eligible? Any thats been previously used in a game shouldn't be entered.
Mar 31, 2004 ctishman link
Well, I don't have the modelling software anymore, but I have 3DMFs I can import to Blender. If that works out, I'll finish them. No, they haven't been used in any game before :D

What are the other requirements?
Apr 01, 2004 Pyroman_Ace link
You'd have to check the original thread but it's still not working for me so I can't copy and paste them here. I dont know what the problem is with that thread but my guess is my moving things screwed it up, or screwed by browser up. For whatever reason, I cant access it.
Apr 01, 2004 Durgia link
clear all your temp files and cache and use a different browser you should be able to get in.
Apr 02, 2004 Skyfox link
Um Pyroman_Ace. I already turned in my entry on the last topic. If you didn't notice. I don't see my entry on the list.
Apr 04, 2004 Urza link
note the words "Last Topic"


If you had taken the time to read any of his posts you would know that he cant access the Last Topic

I have been playing recently and made up somethin like this:

UPDATE:

Where X is a number from 1 to 7

Gee.. i don't want take a place in any contest or something, I just want to enjoy vendetta so, here is a little desc about "this"


Now, that is a BIG ship. It can't dock in station (so i don't think it would be a part of vendetta soon), but it can hover near by (it's as big as station :>). Generaly it's a big cargo ship, nevertheless it's rather difficult to kill due to it's armor.
Althought it has very low agility, it's quad power cells made him quite fast ship.

Name: Supernova
Weapons: 4Large (2 on the back) 2 Small
Agility: Extreamly Low
Armor: 100000 (no.. i did't make a mistake ;)
Cargo: 128 (16 for each 'capsule')
Length: 300m
Width: 40m

So.. if you be so kind and tell me what do you think about it (but notice, that this is my first project :>)
