Total volume should exceed the ICN Javelis-Class Destroyers but smaller than a regular cruiser; less internal volume than the Kestrel, around that of the Stealth Cruiser would be ideal.

Nope. Just checked and all i really have is stock Crystal parts that i used to create new ship hulls. Depending on how you resize/chop up those images you can get several kinds of ships, but i haven't got any lying around. :mrgreen:

And thanks everybody, for sharing your stuff. Awesome of you. :D

Can I make a request?

Can someone here recolour this ship to be the same red as The Vortex: Engi Cruiser B.

Please?

I will give you credit to the mod I am working on.

And yes some parts of it was spliced from CE's Circle (Engi) Medical Station, but that is also spliced from vanilla games and I took vanilla content as well into my spicing.
On my mod I will say where the inspiration and recourses are from.

Just want to check, is anyone doing my request to recolour that (huge) engi ship I sliced into the engi B red/ B colours? (or at least tips on gimp how to recolor easier-ly without using a pencil 1 pixel big then recoloring everything manually)

Quick Gimp tutorial for that:

-Open up your ship graphic and the Torus ship graphic as an orientation
-Use the "colour select" tool from the pallet (with a threshold of about 5) and click on the black outlines of your ship, this should select the entire black outlines of the ship
-Use "select/invert" to invert the selections, now everything besides the outlines of the ship is selected
-Use "color/colourize" to start recolouring the entire ship in one go
-Adjust the sliders till the result match the Torus style, (if there is no preview available use str+z to go back and trail and error till it looks all-right)
-You probably need a HUE close to red, but slightly going in the direction of blue (the Torus is basically... Bordoux-Red?), meaning you HUE slider should go almost to the farmost right
-Saturation probably has to be high to match the Torus style
-Brightness might be low, it's a pretty dark style
-Play around with the sliders and fine tone (sometimes 5 HUE more makes a big difference) till your got the style right, save and done
(you can alos just recoulour the entire ship with out the selection thing, but then it has coloured outline, which is not like the vanilla tourus at all...)

Nope, that's just imgur displaying it smaller, double click it and it'll go bigger.

Don't worry the type A fits in game and this is no bigger or smaller.
The mod is already up (the type B will be in the update very soon)
The ship is The Zodiac and the Moebius, the Class Engi Drone Harbour ship.
