How much hate am I going to get for suggesting a pony mod for starfarer? You know, the friendship is magic kind.
Something along the line of Solar Empire/Lunar Republic.
To bad I don't have the time/skill for this otherwise I would attempt it.
Would be so awesome if I could have something like trixie or twilight sparkle or luna as my character in the game.

Oh come on guys, you know it's inevitable. Someday, somehow, it will happen.
And when it does it will be beautiful.
Character portraits of admiral Rarity, empress Celestia, ace Rainbow dash and many more.
Just imaging bright pink ships, or yellow ones.
With cutie marks or course! :D
Firring friendship beams.
I promise nothing!
But I probably will anyway.
Just don't understand the hate for it, oh well.
Sometimes i`m really happy that people don`t know how to mod games...O, you are just asking for me to do this aren't you. ;D
No offence :)
I wish I knew how to mod games, than I would make a pink space hamster race... But nope, I'm just stuck with my Zilarr idea... creating a ship every 5 days because I can't make anything original..... like a minimum wage employee >.>Aw, chin up man, you'll get better at it if you keep trying. Get your creative juices flowing. Play the game in a different way then your use to or comfortable with. Find some new insight. You can do it!

I have not had that privilege. Bet it looks amazing.spriting is a *** when it comes to the bigger ships. also it just takes more time when you're setting up more weapon slots that larger ships tend to have. otherwise they tend to stay the same.
I have bin shot to scrap metal by them when they swarm me in my earlier battles.
EDIT: Isn't editing the same for all ships? Or are bigger ships harder due to weapon slot placement? Or something?

This is so, so, so, so, so, so true. Like my mods latest ship, the destroyer. Looks like complete utter crap.... But I got the shape I kinda wanted.

It's memorizing :o, though if by editing you mean just taking an existing ship and slappin new color and putting some data on it, than yeh it's the same. But I like to (but lack the imagination and inspiration and some serious drawing capabilities [sadly D';]) draw up Original (which is hard in a site with people who have made every shape of ship) and interesting sprites that keep the theme of my mods race theme. But I'm trying to come up with things that aren't like Starfarer ships (because of things like frankenships [no offence frankenship peeps, you most likely have more creativity and better looks than me]) and things like modern ships, like ironclads.
But we're not here to talk about my mod, we're here to talk about unicorn pony things shootin rainbows out of their engines!!!

I would personally go without that tail but hey it's your design, if you like it then be proud of it. Rest of it looks wicked. The hard part is probably the details on them. I don't know how they make them look so beautiful. Lots of practice I guess.
You just made me remember something. Something that has to be done. Something, perhaps, even more awesome then space ponies. (if that's possible)
Gentleman, I give you, The Space Stallions!

Somebody, ANYBODY please mod this thing in, it's a freaking death star shaped like a horse moon thing.
Please do this, please, please, PLEASE?!?!?! I want a Mother Mustang.
As an extra you could also have Destructo in his weird laser-ray thing as a special boss. Firing terribly damaging energy shots halfway across the screen.

Something like that but still be beatable by the eventual fleet limits that are going to be a reality. But difficult, really push things.
I can never seem to get a fortress running in dwarf fortress, once I get my first migrant wave my organization sucks.It's very easy. Just need a dedicated dwarf planter with a little bit of room to grow stuff, I go for 6x2 split up in six 2x1 parts. That can feed quite a few dwarfs. Have a dedicated brewer/cook and you at least won't starve. Make sure you have a dedicated miller as well. Dwarf fortress takes dedication, lots of it.
Some people say that Spring... well... kinda brings some crazies and nut-guys into the world. I begin to believe this.
No offence guys
I've modded in about 5 or 6 new civilizations that trade (also 6 new races, 3 playable), a way to melt iron down to remove trace elements (nickel and platinum), a way to make mithril (from nickel and platinum), about 12 new armor types, and about 7 more megabeasts that can trick civilizations into thinking they are gods.I can never seem to get a fortress running in dwarf fortress, once I get my first migrant wave my organization sucks.It's very easy.

I've only done good in that game when I cheated, but even when I cheated I never got any iron where I embarked D';go to advance worldgen parameters, set mineral scarcity to 100, also up the number of volcanoes. will practically guarantee you to get iron (hematite ore), embark on a volcano, you can make magma furnaces and forges right off.
Asphyxiated ponies in space?
that could work.
You do realize that ponies can teleport right? Their ships/fleets never really take any actual casualties. Once a ship is beyond repair they just wisk themselves back to the magical land of Equestria. And planets are still untouchable right now so no luck there.Asphyxiated ponies in space?

I want to blow up ponies. I usually don't shoot hulks after they're disabled, but for ships of this kind I'll make an exception.
You see this guy, right?

He strongly against ponies in space...

You do realize that ponies can teleport right?Never heard of about Multidimensional Particles Scrambler? Also, what kind of teleporation in this? On which theory it based? Molecular? Particle? Lambda?
Their ships/fleets never really take any actual casualties.Then Independent Defense Force will be first one to inflict so much damage, that there will be no end to casualties count.
Once a ship is beyond repair they just wisk themselves back to the magical land of Equestria.Multidimensional Particles Scrambler?
And planets are still untouchable right now so no luck there.Challenge Accepted. Independent Defense Force will just blow up whole star system, or even galaxy. And supernova/blackhole will finish the job with "magical lands of Equestria".
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cH-yA8U2XgI&feature=relmfuOne of my favorites. Seen that one so many times.
Theory? Bah! It's magic.Magic - very advanced science/knowledge that can be used without fully understanding it. Basically Magic - its advanced control of matter on molecular armor.
It's true the show doesn't show much in terms of magic, but since we are going into future space combat we might as well amp it up to a high fantasy setting as well, and then everything becomes possible.And a magic as all other science can be: countered, dispelled, dissipated, jammed & scrambled.
Which kind of gets me in the mood for a spelljammer mod. That would be cool as well.MCSSF Emitter will be enough - Matter Control Suppression & Stabilization Field Emitter.
Don't muddle your science in my magic.
Do you really want to see the corpses of little ponies being blown out into space from those ships?
(don't answer that, of course you do)
Now all I need is this fine ship (http://www.ravestats.com/public/fen/faction-ship-phantasm-2.jpg) so I can ram stuff and stay classy.Ho-ho my friend, Phantasm will be most suitable for pony-hunt :) But rather problem, that if to "screen" it to Starfarer, it's picture have to be taken from side, because from top it rather thin.
Pointy, but looks rather fragile, not sure I'd ever want to pilot one of those.But... But Sansha (http://youtu.be/nJKcK-Fv80I) is such a nice fellow how could you not want to befriend him and have his ships, it's not like he's going to replace your brain with a computer or something.

You're a few days early with your ponies suggestion...They were later found inside a gelatinous cube, half digested.

Basically you have a magic gun there, seeing as we know next to nothing about dark matter.
Just for clarifications sake: the most dangerous weapon one probably can come up with is not a way to destroy supermassive black hole. It's the (and my mods race has already developed this weapon) a dark matter cannon :), you put it on the hull of a ship, and since dark matter dosent follow the rules of gravity, bit it instead tears gravity away, this is a effective way to destroy planets, heck, even galaxies, since black holes are gravity. You just need enough ;DDark Matter Cannon can be easily evaded by Lambda Folding, or easily deflected by shield that provides Gravitational Interpolation, which is one of basic function of Multiphased Temporal Shield, that installed on any IDF ship. Even on weaponless shuttle. Also "tearing gravity" isn't weapon of last resort. Tearing gravity is nothing more then nullification of gravity and destruction of gluon field, that holds quarks, so it's actually nothing special :P
Basically you have a magic gun there, seeing as we know next to nothing about dark matter.Who said that we really don't know?
And last time i checked, neither ponies nor TimCORP were a part of the human race ;DBasically IDF is a human race, but using nanotechnologies (nanomachines), they forced evolution process for eons forwards. Physically the left same humans, anatomically their very organs and skin strengthened and got durability of diamond, while keeping original elasticity. Psychologically their mind evolved increasing processing capabilities, increasing effectiveness of original senses and adding new senses. Nanomachines were assimilated by body, while keeping original interface link and programmability, thus leaving them with same functionality quality and immunity to EMP.
We don't know a single property other then that it has to be the cause for the expansion of space/timeWe do know it has zero-point fluctuations, we do know that it has mass, we do know that time within can be calculated as relative variable, that actually can be changed.
Or did i miss the day we invented Warp travel? :)Long time ago, even couple variants of using it, one even natural ;D
I wish, and star gates, and personal space craft, and replicators, and robot bodies.Lie down on bed, close your eyes... And here you go, you have everything :)
I want a pony body... Just for fun, it would probably not work very well but what the heck. (kinda like my hand, hooves are so useless despite what that show shows us)You still got your chance to add pony-style ships, take original models, change their color, and viola, you got brand new pony-ships ;D
Ain't that just spacetime?Space-time it's a general description. And when time can be calculated as relative variable, this variable called "Temporal Entropy Speed" and it can either positive, either negative, for this point begins simple mathematics (kinda...).
That's a nice little race you've got there, warstalker, shame if my race would turn hostile against it ;DMy race in mod by default hostile to everybody :)
Going to let you in on a secret: whilst the IDF can go through universes, TimCORP controls at least 2 universes, and the TimCORP has very advanced technology, able to match any other.IDF doesn't need to control universes, IDF more like explorers/protectors. You know you can't just barge between universes as you like. For more advanced explanation read IDF Files #17623 & #17549 8)
And the race has existed for ~8-10 billion years. But just to prove stuff, i will make a mission, pitting my ships vs yours ;D
I see that trained monkeys did are leading the IDF? ;DNope, it's just what trained monkeys of TimCORP think ;D
nexus tunnels is a really old technology,Except the fact, that very great amount of tunneling technologies called "nexus tunnels", I'm sure you didn't even tried to understeand, about which of "Nexus Tunnels" I speak. Nexus tunnels explained by me are contradiction to all physical laws, due the fact that they can exist in within Abyss.
TimCORP uses a technology known as "spacebending", which uses the TimCORP warp drives, modified for traversing universes. It creates a warp bubble around the ship in which it goes faster than the time-space can keep up, and therefore it "phases out", so to say.You can't use for travel between within Abyss something that based on physical laws or their manipulation. For traveling withing Abyss you need something that counters Abyss Particles.
And the TimCORP has encountered one of those ancient epic races.IDF encountered lots of ancient races, and explored lots of universe. But IDF never attacked anyone without reason. And lots of times just passed by and didn't even contacted these races. So most of them doesn't even know about IDF.
Let's just say that it didn't go well for the epic ones and TimCORP got themselves a galaxy.So it was a galaxy and not universe :)
And no, I am not going to disclose a TimCORP file, as those are classified as top-secret, only to be viewed by the CEO and vice-CEO.There is no need for it :) IDF discloses only limited information that means no harm to themselves :)
What's all this crap in my pony topic?!Because it most suitable for such deep discussions. Deal with it 8)
As I expected pony thread -> spam thread.Nope. It's a self-promotion thread, talking about deep matters ;D
Let's just say that ancient races pose no threat to the TimCORP, as they have been able to build a HYDRAE-class battlestation, which only exists in Hyperphase space.What size of battlestation?
According to the TimCORP theory of abyss and contradiction,:-\ TimCORP don't have such theory... Otherwise, If they did had it, they've tried to find application to it and not try to create warp drives, modified for traversing universes.
hyperspace combined with phasespace can contradict even abyss-particles,If TimCORP did had theory of abyss and contradiction, they knew that combining of hyperspace and phasespace is completely useless action. Nothing can benefit the combination of hyperspace and phasespace, only if you want to slowdown your ships, or stop them at all...
which allows these battlestations to exist anywhere, including between universes.It means TimCORP has been traveling only inside universe...
And as they are equipped with a cannon, they can rip apart universes, much like the way black holes do, execpt for in a bigger scale, using technology to their advantage.Destroying universe isn't a big deal... But creating is... Also FYI, black holes can't destroy universe, on the opposite side, they actually stabilizing the universe, allowing it go through cycles of "life".
They are suprisingly fast thanks to their hyperdrives.Inside the universe.
The explanation for why so many of your fleets are missing.Because you need to upgrade navigation systems on your ships or create one big navigation buoy.
They know, for example your fleet buildups in the milkyway, just for instance.IDF remodeled their own universe centuries ago in order to make it stable, and now it looks like this:
We switched to reality??? I'm actully surprised nowActually all my theories and knowledge based on what I know, thus I can logically prove them and make them look and sound real. All this enough to nullify logically irrational theories, deal with it 8)
All thanks to spies ;)Basically, there is no possibility & chance for non-human race, that doesn't understand very basics of human psychology :)
If we are going to have a serious, literate discussion, then give me some time to find the correct information.You have it :)
One question though, where the hell do you get the energy requirements needed to do all this ***?!I will tell you... For IDF it's Einsof Power Generator, if you want, later I can write concept of how it built and how it works to produce almost infinite amounts of energy.
I doubt that would meet the energy requirement for annihilating a whole universe. Actually I'm 100% positive on that.And you damn right.
Yeah. Well, as i was describing above, TimCORP can extract energy from both dark matter and dark energy.It means very soon whole TimCORP will be gone with their universe, homeworld and whole epic fleet 8)
Yeah. Well, as i was describing above, TimCORP can extract energy from both dark matter and dark energy. Which make up about 70% of a universe. TimCORP can literaly suck out the energy of a universe and leave everyone inside to die horrible. Hey, that's not a bad idea, i'll propose it to the CEO immediately ;DAnd the time scale of such an event would be what?
Are you arguing with ponies again, Upgradecap?
Time is relative... Destruction is relative... Speed is rela- ...
...can't we all agree that the whole situation is relative and plain silly. :D
*sigh* Saying you can proof *** and then saying you know nothing at all. Classy.I was not... I was trying to prove a point..... Eh, who cares really, It's a game, and the races are from a mod for this game, It's not life nor death. Discussion over, tough it was a fun one :).
You know ponies, we forgive and forget.
I like how people are arguing about the absurdity of destroying the universe in a topic about ponies in space.
(http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/Trylobot/pepole.gif)
No, no I won't. I refuse to argue against a kid who thinks the entire universe could be annihilated in the time frame of a decade.I agree it's absurd, Apophis hasn't made a big enough gun...yet
That is beyond absurd. *sigh* Kids these days.
Even if you had a method to do it with exponential speed, it would still take an amount of time on a cosmic scale. Not a damn decade.

IDF claims it's victory against TimCORP! (http://fractalsoftworks.com/forum/index.php?topic=852.msg23241#msg23241)
I thought we stopped bragging?Hmm... why it so only after your defeat? Probably you now not so sure that you can raid the sphereworld 8)
very well, wait until the next update, where the battlestation will be presented. Enjoy your victotry, while you can...... ;)You will add battlestation? Fine, I will add dreadnought... Or I will enable Main Caliber Weapons...
LOL, all of my love man. Sorry you had to see that. How old are you anyway? That video is actually really, really funny with a ton of reference to older cartoon series. It makes you remember "Ren & Stimpy" amongst other things.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cH-yA8U2XgI&feature=relmfu
I might be a little late on the draw here, but......
I hate each and every person here due to this. I will literally have nightmares about dead animated creatures and bloody ponies. And the worst part is I had a paused Friendship is Magic video on the right side of my screen. Peace out!
*Pony middle finger*
Most definitely not hating (look at my name) but I think your going about this wrong. I haven't read through the whole thread, but it looked like from your first post you wanted a very clear cut and hardcore theme for this. I think it would work better with less pony focus, and more of the feel different factions would have.I detect no hate (ignoring 7007King0770).
If you went with, say, New Lunar Republic, Discords Revolt, and Old Solar Empire, I would see OSE being medium weight, fast and maneuverable, and beam focused. Also, they would use a bright and warm color pallet, like gold white and pink. NLR would be opposite, with dark blues purples and blacks, I can see more productively shaped, angular ships, covered with armor with highly advanced solid shell ballistic weapons. For DR, I can see crazy, asymmetrical designs, alot like the junk pirates. They could have a pallet like red brown and silver. Maybe be kinetic missile oriented, with huge, high explosive cannons and little armor.
If someone made a mod like that, I would ride it to the moon. (lololololololol you saw it coming too huh) Of course you could have crazy effects with different kinds of color and light, like sparkles and dust clouds, maybe make the com trails huge on OSE ships, idk, get crazy with it. But I don't think a lot of people would go for what your trying to do.
You wouldn't have to scrap it, just tone it down a little. 8)
It will never die!It will... After I will shot it :)
The Grammar Nazis are going to love you. TO DEATH!It will never die!It will... After I will shot it :)
If ponies will be found in space, I will make sure, that Independent Defense Force... hunts... each... last... one... of... them... and puts their annihilation on top of the highest priority objectives list.
P.S. No offense...
Tails? Hah.
The TimCORP only hunt for *puts on sunglasses* Pony Heads.
YEAAAAHHHHHHH
Bunch of savages. >:(
You know that horse tails are anatomically fake tails? You can't eat that xD

With todays Internet speeds and storage capabilities these things are nothing to be worried about.
There, they all have pictures, happy now?

I keep forgetting that a lot of people still have to deal with download speeds I haven't seen since I was still in school. Probably worse then that.
