nice tho i think i said it before but cba to go check you gona stick with one design i personally favored the earlier one with the long and short thin piers
Looks good, a fitting liniage for the current cityships such as Atlantis. Can definitely see where the inspiration originated for the smaller ships in later use. Though if my idea for scaling is correct, then it would be quite power hungry taking anywhere from 10-15 ZPM's. But then, I could be wrong
didn't think you'd check it out this quick ron!!
masterwong- definitely pre-zpm...please keep an eye peeled for further updates-either late this week or next weekend...
Sorry, I don't recall when they actually were supposed to have began utilizing ZPM technology. Either way, the power requirements to keep it fully operational have got to be enormous. Anyhow, definitely was worth the look. Can't wait to see her when you get the chance to add the detailed structures to her.
good evening everybody
here is an extremely late update..health issues again..and work and other stuff...they all distracted me from this thing of beauty..anyhow, i finally, absolutely, finalised the base engines of this massive beast..i'm currently working on the piers and the tower placements for the power distribution system, and should have the update this coming friday night..
please enjoy.. http://www.thelordofeternaldarkness.com/onegreatship/ogsv6becomplete.jpg
apologies for the delays..have had serious graphics issues..
a new workstation setup as i burnt out 2 (yes 2) xps notebooks..
got a quadro fx 1500 card which is great..10gb ram..cool..vista ultimate 64..not so bad...
and then the TDR problems set in..and i was seriously screwed..vista is now seriously stripped interface wise, and it's working pretty good...i've downclocked the quadro seriously..system temp is okay..and fingers crossed, it's running okay..aside from initial refresh problems, i've managed to get some side work done on the buildings that will accompany the OGS project which i'm posting now..
somehow my sumeria model ship has become so corrupted that i've had to start again...all files are now in ascii format, and later i will convert regulary to fbx for extra safety..
i'm scared to risk the ogs file..hence the delay in posting..but things are looking better...
the colony buildings are separate units for the OGS project..basically miniature city ships of a very unique design and purpose, still utilising the sub space tap power generation technology from the OGS..hence the similarity in central tower design (which will be reflected in the roject shortly)
check it out, and tell me what you think
Dude this is looking friggin sweet. I have a question though, as the links at the biginning of the thread are no longer available, are you using the footage from the beginning of Ark of Truth for this? Or is it your own design? The Alteran ship from AoT wasnt really that big either, Ive always hoped it rendezvoused with something a bit larger once in orbit....... (kinda like a Trade Federation Core Ship lol)

Hope to see more soon mate.
Hello
Glad you like it..
the links should be okay...they are hosted on my own website..I will check it out..
This is the premise..as the alterans left their home galaxy in one ship, they travelled out into the universe..
during this journey, they travelled through various parts of the universe..the ship they had was not enough..so they built a new one around it, and it became the one great ship they used to travel through the universe..they discovered naquadah, and used it in construction of their great ship..and everything thereafter was made either of naquadah or a mix of naquadah....
this ship doesn't use fuel based engines..it's all gravitational manipulation to propel the craft..very elegant and pretty much perpetually lasting...no zpm tech....something simple..sub space based..
but yes, this is mostly my own design, and my wife helped with some parts..and my son..it's a family project..
thats it for the moment...I will try to get some buildings onto it this week..
All of them? I've just clicked them literally one by one..The ones in the beginning don't work as I've moved them into a new folder physically on the webserver, to help me keep track of the work..
But the one's later on in the thread definitely do work...
Please try them again..

I've been playing around with the city structure, and have decided to share this vision of the future updates..this may change, but then again, it may not..all subject to art..
please check it out and tell me what you think..

I know it's been some time, and interest has perhaps waned impressively..but for those who still want, I have something for you..
Please be advised that the following links contain pictures that are very large..

I've had to redesign everything, as the older model got seriously slow...
