hello! this is my first mod, testing to see if everything runs smoothly and i set up everything right with the links and the post stuff lol.

this mod adds the starcarrier i made out of the starliner with a few edits adding venture parts , it spawns in campaign and should run fine, its a poor mans heron.

There is a Starliner carrier version, named Starblazer. I once used them in quite number when i was poorflying through sector.

I was not aware of this lol, i just picked a hull and started workin on it.
Ill try to take a look around before making edits in the future.

My tip is making your ship more unique, change the color scheme (try to change HUE without touching saturation or brightness)

Also use https://imgur.com/ to host images and get the embedded link for forums, posting the image as attachment makes it a tiny thumbnail instead

Oh snap
(I too was also unaware of the Starblazer)

Lol ouch.
Im currently putting venture parts on mine to make it more personalized (when in doubt throw some random bits on!)

Don't worry, I just checked, there is no such ship as a starblazer.

You shouldn't be afraid to make ships similar to others mods if you already had an interesting idea from the start. I mean, there is already like a dozen version of the Hound in the modiverse. And people will not play with all mod at the same time so it most often limits redundancy.

Even then, from the same idea you will probably not end with the same ship than I did with my Starblazer.
A good example is both Stop Gap Measure and Disassemble Reassemble have ships based on the same concept, (the Wren and Hoplite for example) but most often end with 2 not-so-similar ships.

By the way, I like the way you start modding: small scale, looking to see how it work. Much smarter than the way I did a few years ago.

Ah true true, i just didn't want my very first mod to be a copy of someone elses but yeah your right.

And yep, didnt wanna overwhelm myself since ive literally never coded or sprited before lol.

I have built up 2 ships since i uploaded this that are of higher quality and uniqueness, im waiting till i have a fleet of ships then ill add in a personal faction.
But i literally do not know where to start with a faction so who knows.
