in the future it would be best to wait until it is actually at BCFiles and then make a thread here with a link ;)

I'm not FourChan but that's a bit silly doncha think? People would have downloaded it way before the Avenger comes out.

Yeah but i'm guessing that not everyone that downloads the Avenger would download the shields.

you should leave the shields up to the patron...  personally, id be a little annoyed if i downloaded a ship and all my shields were changed and i wasnt expecting it...

Can't you assign the shields to one ship? Like the Romulans use a different shield than the Feds in BC.

Nope, shields are not race specific, in fact there is little one can customize with the shields save for color and texture.

Ah rite, well I'll see what I can do when it comes to it.

I like the new textures very much. Great work :)
But sometimes, the shield bubble does't look complete round. Like if there was a piece of the shield missing.

If you look at the actual texture file, you'll see why.

I like how the shields react in my opinion, unlike where normal shields cause a charge across them, if you get hit in certain areas the shield grid in that area just lights up.

exactly - the rest is all hardcoded and cannot be altered...  otherwise, we would have had skin shields and race-specific shields a long time ago ;)

Lol, i've never actually looked at shields before so personally I don't have a clue. Well excal might just allow what we want. Either way the screenshots look cool.

If it comes down to it I can use and installer and give the option to install these along with the ship or just the ship alone.

Chrono, you good at making Mutators? If so I have a request, would it be possible to make a mutator to work with Mutiple Style Shields? If so I think me and you should come out with a shield pack :D

i think that would be a better option - this way here it gives people the shields, but also gives them an option...  people like options lol :)

good idea!

I like the shields very much. They look much more energetic like the old ones, but the missing shield parts are a little bit annoying. Will there be an update to fix that problem or is that impossible?
