But, don't you understand, if I make an alt toon named "ArmyGeneralFanta" someone will get triggered.

How dare I?  

The next is a terminal for a little bit more details in this world.

Wow, this piece of software is very interesting! I will be sure to use it for designing ships. Thank you for taking your time to do this.
 
(Edit:) I noticed I can't make ships, that's a shame. Still a cool demo regardless!

Sehr Schön

Sobald man das Spiel wieder " Crowdfunding " kann...und Ich dadurch Zugang bekomme....werde ich mich mal bei euch....bewerben.
 
Bis dahin....weiter so

 

So meine lieben Freunde der Nacht. 
Da dieser Beitrag extrem verstaubt war und hier so gar nichts los zu sein schien......habe ich mich dazu entschieden ein kleines Experiment in Form eines Podcasts zu machen. Dieser ist selbstverständlich nur auf deutsch. Und ich habe oben by the way den Beitrag wieder eingerichtet.
Es geht um den "Basenbau"....wie könnte man was bauen und woraus sollte man achten. Wir haben uns hierbei sehr allgemein gehalten und bei weiten auch nicht alles durchdiskutiert. Wie gesagt es ist unser erster Versuch.^^ 
 

Ihr könnt im Video gerne mal eure Stimme da lassen.^^
Und falls es Verbesserungsvorschläge oder Ideen für weiteren Content gibt. so könnt ihr mir das hier gerne mitteilen.

Project Hyperlink
A Luminous initiative
 
 
 
What is Project Hyperlink?
 
Project Hyperlink is an initiative started by Luminous in an effort to create an open forum for org leaders to discuss issues and share projects,
without the hassle of joining a billion servers or creating infinite DM groups.
 
In essence, it's a discord for the users who suffer from fiftyplusdiscorditis,
we've created this in an effort to cure this ailment and bring efficient communication into the picture for organisations.
 
Interested? This next section will be relevant to you then.
 
What are the requirements for joining?
An org must at least have 10 members on the community site, or pass the quality standard. An org must agree to the guidelines written below.  
Project Hyperlink Guidelines
An org can have a maximum of 3 representatives including the org leader. An org can bring up any topic for discussion. An org can share projects in the dedicated channels. An org leader/representative cannot officially represent multiple subsidiaries and the whole. They can either represent the whole, or one of the subsidiaries. (They can still speak on their behalf unofficially)  
Project Hyperlink is moderated by Luminous staff. The guidelines above also apply to Luminous with the exception of the representative limit.
 
How are orgs added to this server?
Orgs can be added through Luminous, DM Dxeo#1776 or Soarnir#1776 on discord, or head on over to the Luminous discord found on our community page here.

The next is a terminal for a little bit more details in this world.

Welcome to the 3D Preview Suite.
This is a only a short introduction for you guys - have fun!
 
What is this "3D Preview Suite" ?
We developed this suite to simulate different ship designs - you can look at the ship from outside but can also go inside and inspect every corner of the craft!
 
Why we are doing this?
We only do this for one reason : we want to help the community. Our suite hopefully inspires them to grand designs and give them an idea how to design their next ship.
 
The software we use :
We utilize the magnificent, though old and rusty, power of "Blender Game Engine" which's totally sufficient for this program.

For the community, from the community
We will keep this thread up to date. As soon as there is a new update - you will know first if you follow this thread!

3D Preview Suite : Version 1.1 
--->DOWNLOAD IT HERE <---

HOMEPAGE
HAVE FUN!

The new version 1.1 is now published. And with it such new content for our suite !

My advice would be to name it something descriptive. Stating the obvious, I know. 
 
Give it some time, something cool will come to you. I usually take a nap in those situations. 

Don't mention, anything to help each other out. And I am behind Oz but it's really a community effort I can't take credit for everything. Sponsored by my org, Heimera Trade X change. 
 
I will most likely link to your download page and try to make the description clear. 
 
Something like, ship designer software. Unless your tool has a specific name then I'll use that. 

Hey guys....this is the beginning of my video blog of our preview suite. 
I will work on it every day until the update is ready for you to download. And for this i make a video every day. This blog will only published on this forum thread, because the community portal is the wrong place for such much input.
 
And here is the first one. If you like it or if you have some ideas for this....you can write it here.

Good stuff. 
 
I design in Blender myself, when I have time. It's nice to see this project come to life. 
 
Do you mind if I link to your website on my website, Oz? 
 
It's a bit of a shame that its all in German though. Nothing against German but not everyone knows herunterladen means download. 

Luckely they are not, because DU has a voxel system for building and those games (at least SE) doesn't.
With the voxels you can do ALOT more then with blocks, especially when building slopes.
 
@Federal Initiator
I have watched your first video and a little bit from the second and from that it looks like you are not that familiar with 3D modelling with a direct modeller, like Blender?
Never, ever, ever use n-gons in any situation (faces with more than 4 verticies). They will completly screw up your renders and many modifiers. Use quads (4 verticies) wherever possible and tries (3 verticies) where needed. Your approach of preemtively subdividing a cube is not a good practise when you are not sculpting. It will create unnececcary faces and therefor reduces performance and increases render time. Use edge loops instead to create just enough extra faces. It should also be faster. A very good Blender addon is Destructive Extrude with which you can create extrusions more intuitive and much faster. The music is WAY to load. Get yourself Audacity and use the "normalize" ("Normalisieren") filter for your audio track. This will bring down the audio level to a decent, usable loudness. There is also an addon for Audacity for extracting audio tracks from videos, just in case. If you have the music files as mp3 I can recommend "MP3 Gain", which is a programm to alter the loudness of mp3 files and bring them to the same level. However overall the project looks like a good idea. I have designed my ship in Blender first, too and then build it in game afterwards.

 
And yes I took screenshots of some ingame elements and roughly rebuild them in blender so that I can scale the whole thing acordingly.
No I sadly can't give you the numbers, because NDA.

Like Last week, this one is curiously also from @Cybrex' office.
