[raven rover]

and this yesh

[buoyant turtle]

okay

mehh

[raven rover]

i think i like these better

but what do you think

[buoyant turtle]

i mean

idk

do you reckon i cna add the thing i was doing before like that or like that

or do i not add it at all

[north jetty]

engine cover rim beside those vesper diffs?

[buoyant turtle]

tried adding the boosters to give it a more round look, hwo does it look

[buoyant turtle]

no just normal engine cover

like this one ^

[buoyant turtle]

imo i think i gotta offset the boosters half a grid inwards

[hollow lotus]

wait i just noticed, thats back not front of the ship

[buoyant turtle]

😭

yeah the overall ship looks like this

[hollow lotus]

i thought thats front and those 2 fitting as front fork

[buoyant turtle]

does it ruin the look

[hollow lotus]

honestly doesnt look bad

looks fancy

[rose vessel]

Can sm1 tell me a good looking corvette with only basic modules

I beg

[north jetty]

can u try to add the kineostream thruster where u placed the engine cover?

[buoyant turtle]

i was gonna add a pyrodrive booster but sure

ill try both

[buoyant turtle]

then do you reckon i add 2 boosters with covers to eah side or just 1 in the middle

[hollow lotus]

one long boy booster

[north jetty]

send more pics!

[buoyant turtle]

1 long boy booster

i dont know how that would look

[hollow lotus]

something like this i guess

[buoyant turtle]

yeah it doesnt look as good

[buoyant turtle]

alright ill try

[hollow lotus]

titan heavy booster and thunderbird heavy booster are nice big boys

[buoyant turtle]

or do i offset it more backwards

[buoyant turtle]

this is with this design it completely covers this aprt

[north jetty]

kineostream thruster there?

[buoyant turtle]

pyrodrive thruster

[north jetty]

i mean the above pic*

my bad where the big boy is

[buoyant turtle]

oh

like wdym

do i add a kineostream thruster there

or are you asking

[north jetty]

like add the booster here where this bigboy is\

[buoyant turtle]

ok

hold on

[rose vessel]

Does anyone know a good looking corvette with basic modules?

[buoyant turtle]

place stuff down and see how it looks for you

then adjust

what i do is i start off with a basic corvette then just start testing

[buoyant turtle]

(like the bare minimum)

[rose vessel]

Im bad at making cool stuff just like in minecraft lmaooaoao

[hollow lotus]

you could combine it with kineostream thruster for thicker look

[hollow lotus]

this should be doable

could also place it in middle where flaps are
thats what im using on my main save corvette

im too lazy to open game but not too lazy to open another instance of blender

[lime tinsel]

slowly putting it together :)

[buoyant turtle]

like this?

idk it doenst look right

@hollow lotus

[hollow lotus]

guess big boy doesnt fit everything

[buoyant turtle]

i mean let me try coloring the ship

still doesnt feel quite right

[slow harbor]

Question, why did all corvette cameras go so close to the ship that you can't see the whole ship even when its very small?

And the reticle is now above the center line

this is on max speed, i barely clear the screen edge, on 120 fov

this is how it used to be

Reticle a lot lower, camera a lot further

[buoyant turtle]

looks very goofy @hollow lotus

[hollow lotus]

could use some scaffolds on sides

[paper mulch]

Cool

[buoyant turtle]

i didnt like how it looked lowkey

i think it looks better this way but idk, what are ur thoughts? @hollow lotus
does it look too blocky?

[hollow lotus]

looks bit empty on top

could use some stuff on here

vents or something

[north jetty]

damn

[north jetty]

not gonna lie the back is looking hella bulky

u might wanna change those ambassador wings

[north jetty]

it just looks wrong now

[buoyant turtle]

really?

[north jetty]

this one was better

[north jetty]

yeah

[buoyant turtle]

well tbh i think the bulk in the back looks fine

because it smoothly transitions into a more thin look

reminds me of fighter jets

[north jetty]

it loks good but the ambassador engine feels wrong

[north jetty]

can u remove the last 2 ambassador engines? real quick?

[north jetty]

if u wanna go for this look now u can use the pointy thingy u used at the back

[buoyant turtle]

never said i wanted to for this look i just said it reminds me of this

[north jetty]

oh alright

[north jetty]

this looks good ngl

it reminds me of those ships from starwars

well i gtg

wish i was of any help

[buoyant turtle]

looks too blocky

[buoyant turtle]

u were

[buoyant turtle]

bye bye

[north jetty]

the problem is the middle end peices here

instead of those peices u can like do this?

aight bye\

[crude oasis]

I finished outfitting and customizing this pice of junk. Wondering if anything should be changed to make it look more presentable. Anyone got any ideas?

[lime tinsel]

first corvette , my little chunky boi

[hollow lotus]

balls

[crude oasis]

blue balls

[crude oasis]

fatboy

[lime tinsel]

ill make him bigger eventually

[crude oasis]

the biggest boy

[crude oasis]

and here's the technical stuff

[lost moss]

The long side things are too bland, either adjust or remove them

Also, balls

[lime tinsel]

we'll ignore that my Falcon F2 has more range, storage, speed , maneurability and firepower than the chuny boi

[crude oasis]

yeah I was struggling with that. No idea what to do with them, but I do not want to remove them, takes awaay from the vibe (also there is no other living space)

the entrance leads directly into the cockpit

any ideas would be amazing

[crude oasis]

REAL

[lunar eagle]

OK, NOW I think I am done. For today at least. 😛

[crude oasis]

I don't even know what I'm looking at

but 10/10

[hollow lotus]

got a gut feeling that there is gek there trying to sell something rly RLY MUCH

[lunar eagle]

It's a dystopian advertising airship build, inspired by this one from Bladerunner

the blue pixel letters spell "OFF WORLD" in NMS script, too

[lost moss]

The Propaganda Machine

[hollow lotus]

BEHOLD THE BIKE

anybody has idea if corvette can run without entrance

i kinda need to remove it in order to sit on this thign

[hollow dove]

i love my heavy dropship!

[tall prawn]

Made this from a walkthrough but tweaked some of it

[lunar eagle]

Aresmar is the GOAT!

[buoyant turtle]

@lunar eagle check this out

[lost moss]

I should build an open room corvette at some point

[lost moss]

Yeah, back is too blocky. And repetitive

Sides are good

[buoyant turtle]

how do i fix it then

[lost moss]

Some sloping up and down may help

I did some of that with my first big half-stepped-from-the-start build

[buoyant turtle]

cuh

[lost moss]

#nms-corvette-discussion message

see how it starts to slope back down towards the back
slopes up, then slopes down

[lunar eagle]

Tsunami — 4:24 PM
I liek the way the sides flow -- Speedbird Nacellesinto Vesper Rims with the Ambassador HTs.

It could maybe be narrower though, by a hab width

[buoyant turtle]

uhhuh

[buoyant turtle]

i see

[lunar eagle]

My new build is my first of those.

[lost moss]

I don't have much practice with interior deco so it'll be a challenge for me to utilize the space efficiently

maybe I'll make it a cargo hauler, that way I can just spam crates haphazardly

[lost moss]

Hello!

[buoyant turtle]

so like you're saying the sides should be narrowed down by a whole hab width?

[stone hornet]

Hi

[buoyant turtle]

ill definitely

try that later

[stone hornet]

Im a bit new to the game

[lunar eagle]

No, a half each, so the whole thing is 1 narrower

[lost moss]

Are you here in this channel to talk about corvettes? Corvettes are fun

[buoyant turtle]

oh

okay

[stone hornet]

Its very confusing I play on xbox one creative mode

[lunar eagle]

so instead of 2 wide with the albatross at the back, it was one. Shoudl help solve your repetitiveness as well

[buoyant turtle]

okay

ill do that when i hop on

[lunar eagle]

Like, front to back it looks liek it's 3 - 3 - 5 - 5 - 4 wide. I'd maybe try 3 - 3 - 4 - 4 - 3

with the side nacelles stepped in a half each, and a single hab between at the back.

[fervent garden]

how the hell are people Making these amazing Corvette ships while mine looks like some box

[lost moss]

Patience, practice, experimentation
Learn half-stepping, look for inspiration, maybe follow a tutorial or two

[buoyant turtle]

so those 2 offset them by half a hab each

[lost moss]

And for some builds, generous modding/blender usage

[fervent garden]

i saw a guy that had the atlas itself incorporated into his ship

the crimson liar

[buoyant turtle]

expedition rewards

[fervent garden]

oh

I'll need that

[buoyant turtle]

its not available now

[fervent garden]

I'll make it available

[buoyant turtle]

but u can saveedit into ur game

or use nms app

[fervent garden]

yeah

app?

on the phone?

[buoyant turtle]

no man's app

[fervent garden]

one woman's app

[buoyant turtle]

this thing

[lament abyss]

@late finch

No stickers in this channel please

[fervent garden]

thanks

last time i played was in 2017 so I'm gonna need alot of catching up to do

[lost moss]

A lot changed in this game

[fervent garden]

i have 10 million units and half of it was gone in an instant to buy just one multi tool

and after buying that I'm being told i can get much better ones for free ☹️

[buoyant turtle]

thats rough buddy

[fervent garden]

yeah

anyways Corvette

[hollow dove]

fr i LOVE his designs

[fervent garden]

some guy dmed me saying he has blender models for sale

what is he talking about

[hollow dove]

dont think thats legal but aight lol

[lunar eagle]

My favorite is probably the Hunter-Killer, but the Medivac and the Gryphon are also sick.

[buoyant turtle]

some hardcore gamers use blender models to build corvettes

[hollow dove]

im using the patrol as my fighter and the heavy transport as my hauler as i play in survival lol

[lunar eagle]

to be accurate, it uses sstandard parts, Blender just lets you manipulate them easier and in more ways than the in-game tools

[lost moss]

there are some Blender builds that basically use like 5000 flat panels as polygonal faces though

it's a continuous spectrum

[hollow dove]

have you see nthe sneak peek for the "banshee" his video for it is very much menna look like ur flying a blackhawk in viatnam and or your in avatar

[buoyant turtle]

cant believe im gonna have to learn blender someday if i want to build advanced corvettes

[fervent garden]

that's kinda laggy no?

[lunar eagle]

I hate those with a passion. SOME use of flat panels is fine, but excess, I hate

[lost moss]

Yeah I'm personally more appreciative of the builds where the NMS parts are still recognizable

[lost moss]

it sure can be

[buoyant turtle]

thats the goal

[fervent garden]

lol

[hollow dove]

tbh suprisingly its not that bad lol

then again i aint tried the 20k star destroyer builds lol

[lunar eagle]

Those look like the Medi-vacs

[buoyant turtle]

btw is this what you meant? @lunar eagle

[hollow dove]

ngl i might RP as space trauma team and sit in nexus "healing" ppl

using the medivac

[lunar eagle]

yeah but I'd do the next block or two forward in as well.

[lunar eagle]

Ah, the Banshee IS the name of the Medivac.

the video is sick tho

[hollow dove]

i wish players could send out distress signalls

[buoyant turtle]

what do you mean

[buoyant turtle]

didnt it happen once like a few years ago when that one player was stuck on a planet with only his exocraft

and he posted on reddit

whole community was trying to find his coordinates

[hollow dove]

I GOT STUCK when i first got the game my launch thruster ran out and i was no joke stranded on an planet that was just water with 1 island

[buoyant turtle]

so offset all of the green by half a grid so that the orange is the only centered piece left?

[lunar eagle]

delete the orange. bring the green halves in by a half step on each side

[buoyant turtle]

oh

okay

thats gonna take me

[lunar eagle]

hang on...

[buoyant turtle]

hanging on

[lunar eagle]

would look liek this

[hollow lotus]

took a while but i figured it out
for bike to work i gotta have foot platform to stand on or else seat doesnt work

[lunar eagle]

decide if you liek that look better or not before you go change everything

[buoyant turtle]

okay that looks much cleaner

thank you tsunami

goat

[lunar eagle]

I would also consider replacing these with something that tapers in on the sides, liek a vesper or hardframe Diffuser, with a Cowling in the middle

[hollow lotus]

2 ends of very weird stick

oddly specific but within limits, and 5000 flat panels

[lunar eagle]

Yeah. Like, I did this in Blender after building the Jet version in Vanilla. Only uses corvette parts and decals.

but getting all those angles using the in-game tools would be a huge undertaking. POSSIBLE (with mods), but exhausting

[hollow lotus]

ye sometimes its just better to pull out blender and spend few hours in it

instead of cursing every time something snaps wrongly

[lunar eagle]

My new build, #nms-corvette-discussion message I built the Corvette Part mostly in station. Used blender to rotate some pieces and line them up. Then heavily blender to place the Base Decoration parts.

[hollow lotus]

if i want something rly specific i just go full blend

if it works it works

still need to adjust sitting tho

[lunar eagle]

I saw a micro speeder at last week's C&C meet. I want to do one eventually

[hollow lotus]

i freestyled this thing \

and honestly it worked better than i though

[lunar eagle]

On my to-do list are a pod racer, hover bike, and hot rod.

[buoyant turtle]

do you think it'd be possible to build rocky's ship from phm

[hollow lotus]

this thing ?

idk why it wouldnt

[buoyant turtle]

well

its not

this

[lunar eagle]

In Blender, yeah. Just gigantify a few aerofoils and poof, it's done.

[buoyant turtle]

i dont think its possible but would be really cool

[eternal wind]

antenna spam?

[hollow lotus]

maybe something shoved into wonder projector would work for spikes

[buoyant turtle]

maybe

[lunar eagle]

Supply Pipe maybe, but it'd be black

[eternal wind]

or yeah, wonder projector

[buoyant turtle]

thats really sick

[eternal wind]

do the unlimited scaling glitch skewed items remain that way after reloading if you move them to a corvette?

that could be a potential solution if so

[buoyant turtle]

dude built the oppressor mk II

[hollow lotus]

and painted it red

[buoyant turtle]

shit idk where to start

fuh i need a coffee

@lunar eagle finished the left side i think, is that how you imagined it?

[lunar eagle]

yeah, looking good

[buoyant turtle]

i really need to install a mod that gives better lighting in the hangar

this is obnoxious

i can barely see

[hollow haven]

how can i offset my corvette to hide my landing piece?

wait

well that doesnt work

[buoyant turtle]

theres an offset tutorial

on here

basically you offset a hab, attach your landing gear to the offset hab, then delete the hab

voila

heres a simple tutorial on how to offset
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OviTjOwAfp8&feature=youtu.be

[hollow haven]

following one rn

[hollow haven]

diagonal works downwards..?

[buoyant turtle]

wym

bro tsunami ive been trying to offset the vesper diffuser rim on the right for 15 minutes now

wait nvm

i fixed it

[hollow haven]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lYV-h3DiDNA

thus tutorial worked :o

[lunar eagle]

The deco pieces like the cargo sphere, small vent, radiator cover, etc. shift parts a half stap in two directions -- front/back, side to side, and up/down. The Rockhopper shifts it in one direction -- forward or backward. So you can use the two in combination to put a part at any halfway point on all axes.

[spice narwhal]

fellow blockate player

[hollow haven]

not rlly

no way to make the accessway longer, i bet

[lunar eagle]

Some parts only want to attach to habs/walkways, and are finicky about it, so you sometimes have to put parts down in a certain order using those, then add the others after.

[hollow haven]

i kinda wanted my ship two habs off the ground instead of one lol

[buoyant turtle]

yeah i was using a walkway

had to hit a certain angle

[hollow haven]

wait i can just offset the accessway

[buoyant turtle]

@lunar eagle i did it

[hollow haven]

do Thunderbird landing bays stack on top of eachother

[lunar eagle]

how do you like it?

[buoyant turtle]

looks much cleaner yeah

[hollow haven]

the elevator ones btw

[buoyant turtle]

about that

[lunar eagle]

no. You are either gonna have to jetpack up onto the ramp, or put it on the first level

[hollow haven]

shame.. wanted to kidnap people in my even-higher floating cube

[buoyant turtle]

like this

2 vesper diffusers on the sides and a vesper cowling in the middle

[hollow haven]

WHAT

is there a mod bypass

[buoyant turtle]

yes

[lunar eagle]

To get into this bad boy...
I gotta jet pack all the way up to the head...
land on this back section with the 8 red lights, and drop into a nook in front of it...
then I can hop up into the cockpit area

[buoyant turtle]

https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/3701?tab=posts

[hollow haven]

MECHA

[hollow haven]

thanks for the mod kind traveller

[buoyant turtle]

np

[buoyant turtle]

when you're on a planet and you call it what does it look like when its landing

[hollow haven]

haha i cant see :)

[buoyant turtle]

yeah that happens when you cover your cockpit up

[lunar eagle]

It transforms, too!
It can be jet...
It can be hybrid...

[lunar eagle]

It just moves forward fixed in place standing up, liek a ghost 😛

[buoyant turtle]

damn i imagined it landing like iron man

with boosters in it's legs and hands

[buoyant turtle]

also how does this look

[lunar eagle]

It's based on a fighter from an anime called Macross.

The Corvette Builder Gods were kind to me and it just came together so well

[lunar eagle]

It looks good. But what is most important is if you like it or not.

[buoyant turtle]

yes i do like it

looks cleaner than before i moved the back by 1/2

[lunar eagle]

If I had any additional criticism, I would just say it looks very flat -- at least at the angles of the pictures you've posted.

you might want to see if you can add some verticality to parts of it

[buoyant turtle]

okay

what about the front do you think it needs more work

also mb for bombarding you with questions but how do you reckon i can add some verticality to it

[lunar eagle]

Let's see an angle from the front and to the side and up a little. Like, the 10:30 on a clock and up a bit

[hollow haven]

thats crazy

its not even downloading, by the way

just stuck on this scren LOL

[lunar eagle]

did you click the manual download button?

[hollow haven]

🤦 omg yes

[lunar eagle]

what browser and ad blocker do you use?

[hollow haven]

i help clueless people all the time trust me im not clueless i know what to click 😭

[hollow haven]

opera gx

[buoyant turtle]

opera gx

clearly you are clueless

[lunar eagle]

I use Chrome and AdBlock Plus, and I can download mods off nexusmods no problem

[buoyant turtle]

(/j)

but yeah stop usign opera gx its doodoo

[hollow haven]

what why

[lunar eagle]

No it's not. I prefer it for my phone, Chrome on phone don;t block shit. Opera is awesome there

[hollow haven]

tried on chrome. didnt work. weird

[hollow haven]

can you send the download here

[buoyant turtle]

chromium based browser

bloatware

[hollow haven]

🫩 they all are sadly

[buoyant turtle]

firefox

it handles ram better

it has a better adblocking extension that is 100% safe

and isnt constantly being deleted by chrome

[nimble stirrup]

seems a bit #off-topic-bond-james-bond to me

[buoyant turtle]

my bad

i dont have it downloaded

punch you

check ur dms

[buoyant turtle]

@hollow haven

[hollow haven]

cool thanks

[lunar eagle]

I don't like that front Albatross part. I'd swap it for an Argonaut part, or a Hardframe Cowling. But that's me

Also, are those Vesper Diffusers or Cowlings in the front?

[buoyant turtle]

yeah have fun playing without a complexity limit buddy try not to go over the limit by too much some people's pcs wont handle it

[buoyant turtle]

holdon let me see

[lunar eagle]

looks liek you got aerofoils or something one the sides of it, and the Argonaut matches that slope while the Albatross you uses does not

[buoyant turtle]

those are arcadia heavy boosters

[buoyant turtle]

diffusers

[jagged wave]

Someone said "your ship is amazing" I fee very accomplished knowing that it isnt even close to completion

I'll drop photos soon

[lunar eagle]

I mean this right here

[buoyant turtle]

this?

[lunar eagle]

Looks like it's part of the Vesper Diffuser

[buoyant turtle]

yeah

[lunar eagle]

I wonder how it would look with those two top VDs stepped forward one half, then you don;t need this albatross/argonaut part. Leave the bottom ones be.

[hollow haven]

well okay then

[buoyant turtle]

😭

yeah idk ask in #nms-modding

[hollow haven]

i'll just use panels

[buoyant turtle]

that what you mean?

[lunar eagle]

Anyway, I don;t want to impose my opinions on your design too much. Just keep trying to rearrange things, smooth things out, make them fit better, reduce part count, etc.

[lunar eagle]

yeah

[buoyant turtle]

well so far your ideas have been working

and im learning ideas

so i dont mind

[lost moss]

On mobile I use Firefox with adblock
Opera has a track record of security and privacy issues after it got taken over by its current management

But yeah off topic

[buoyant turtle]

thats what im sayingg

[lunar eagle]

I read CJK webnovels on my phone in bed sometimes. The free sites I use are heavy on ads and it screws up the scrolling. Opera gets rid of it all, so I love it for that. Desktop, I just use Chrome.

[jagged wave]

Thoughts on the draft so far?

[spice narwhal]

Pretty fire

[buoyant turtle]

@lunar eagle half a grid like you suggested

[buoyant turtle]

sick

[jagged wave]

Interesting parts include "1250" which is my girlfriend's favorite number, the ship is named after her last name as well, comes with a very obvious "adult club", bedroom, plant room, medical room with frozen anomalies, and a huge center space with a giant TV Fossils, book area and more

[jagged wave]

Thanks all :]

[lost moss]

Yeah, mostly commenting that mobile Firefox also has adblock

[lunar eagle]

idk if I like how you can see the front of the hab there. TBH, I hate leaving exposed Hab tops anywhere on my builds -- I avoid it if at all possible. This or the old way, both have compromises.

[buoyant turtle]

yaeh i dont like the exposed front

but i also dont know how to cover the hab

without like

completely rearranging the entire ship

i added a domed casing i dont know if that fixed it or not

im hungry im gonna go make some food

[lost moss]

you have half-stepped things in front of the hab, so you could also put like a firebox cowling there or smth, clipped inside the vesper diffusers

[rocky solstice]

Would anyone be able to help me get the atlas corvette parts from the expedition?

Idk where exactly to ask

[buoyant turtle]

you can save edit them into your game

[buoyant turtle]

ill definitely try it out

[rocky solstice]

Im on ps5

Tis a struggle

[lost moss]

Ask in #nms-lfg-or-trades

[buoyant turtle]

you can use the no man's sky service app

[buoyant turtle]

or that

[rocky solstice]

Thank you

[crude oasis]

I asked around and all I got was ball jokes. (too impatient to keep waiting). Plz help give design tips on what to do with the arms (aside from removing them)

as far as I got was extending the connectors and girthing them up so theyextended just past the arms

[buoyant turtle]

blue balls

[crude oasis]

the bluest

[spiral prism]

I would widen the arms at the front

quick edit to demonstrate

[crude oasis]

that would be nice, but, how would I do that?

[buoyant turtle]

mess around with stuff

see what fits and what doesnt

[crude oasis]

oh kay

[velvet ruin]

What if you replaced the balls with those cool triangle flying guys to get less ball jokes

[buoyant turtle]

now why would he unfunny his ship

[velvet ruin]

You're right. Make the balls bigger and merge the two arms in the center ahead of the ship to create a long spear like shape

[buoyant turtle]

this guy knows whats up

[copper wharf]

Can Someone help me? I want the aeron corvette parts and I heard I just need one of each then I can craft them is that true?

[empty belfry]

Would anyone be willing to help with with a corvette design? its my first time making one and i dont really know how to go about making it.

[bleak ivy]

Im trying to place turrets on the side of a hab, then delete the hab. I would like the turrets to stay where I placed them. Is there a way to do that? no modding. glitches ok.

[lost moss]

#nms-lfg-or-trades

[lost moss]

Honestly, I say just go for it and experiment! Most of us didn't start making good corvettes - it's a lot of practice and patience.

Also look for inspiration, and follow some tutorials if it helps.

[lost moss]

I think the answer is no, but I can't tell you with 100% certainty.

[bleak ivy]

ty

[lost moss]

Even with glitch building, some pieces just automatically flip back to their "normal" position if they are not attached to something

@lunar eagle you had to deal with an issue similar to this right? With that crab mech

[copper wharf]

Are you able to help me?

[lost moss]

Yeah but I need to check how many copies I have of stuff

since if only one copy then I need to make more

however let's take this to #nms-lfg-or-trades

[copper wharf]

I just want one and i will reimburse the craft cost

[lost moss]

Nah no need to reimburst the craft cost

I'm not exactly short on resources

[copper wharf]

Just dm me it easier

[lost moss]

I don't have non-friend DMs enabled lol

[copper wharf]

ok

[crude oasis]

I think I might've done it

I just might...

have perfected it?

maybe not though...

(farming for engagement)

got some parts from aa friend and made some bs

[earnest wedge]

Still like my correllian

[south rune]

hammer head

[hollow haven]

not mine

[south rune]

pterodactyl

nvm it looks more like ridly from metroid

[lost moss]

I was thinking Mass Relay from Mass Effect, or Count Dooku's ship from Star Wars

[quick nacelle]

hair straightener

[hollow haven]

i have created the smallest possible corvette in vanilla

of which i have appropriately named Personality

[hollow haven]

i attempted to make my ship just a couch, but it cannot fly without a cockpit.

[plain willow]

Does glitch building still work as it used to? They didn't patch any of it? I wanted to make some modifications to my corvette but it has no landing gear, and i'd like to keep it that way 😅

[hollow haven]

i dont know if this is glitch building but its vanilla and using a bug so

[hollow haven]

im sure theres some way to make it fly, like making the cockpit invisible, but for now i do not know

https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/1trw8hq/whos_ship_is_this/

wtf.........

crazy mod

wish i could make my cube ship that big

[wheat vigil]

bro finally got a drivable freighter

[twilit crescent]

Ah yes, the computer melter 9000

[hollow haven]

anyone know a mod to make a ship part tiny or invisible or whatev.

just need to shrink the cockpit so i can sit on the couch and fly

i can only just sit on the couch

crazy to see LOL

Summon Couch

@hollow lotus huh??? how

did you use edits to shrink

[hollow lotus]

blender

long story short blender

[hollow haven]

I must learn how to use it for NMS because my current ships are purposefully silly

[hollow lotus]

there is blender addon for base building that just converts what you build in blender into json data to copy paste

bit pain to use with many things in it not functioning properly but gets job done

[shadow scaffold]

not mine but holy fuck i love this picture so much

[shadow scaffold]

oh well

didnt realize someone just posted it xd

[halcyon sky]

So I can fish in my corvette

[late finch]

the cube of doom and despair

[late finch]

Northrop B2 Spirit Corvette :p

[lunar eagle]

The parts at the top of the third tab -- Small Vent, Cargo Pod, etc. that you use to glitch reposition parts only attach to some pieces. And if you delete that piece after, they don;t stay where they were, yeah. So I had a clunky bottom design because I needed walkways for them to attach to, but they I found out they would attach to Cowlings so I could attach them to the legs instead. Made the design much cleaner and nicer looking after that discovery.

Import and Export the JSON data using an external Save Editor. Gives you more robust tools, flip parts in ways you normally can't (easily), and exceed scaling limits. You still cannot scale in only one dimension, but you can make things very large or very tiny to hide them.

Includes an asset browser with all the NMS parts, including some legacy parts that were removed from the game (old style buildings).

Some of the parts do not display correctly. Most are fine, but anything that changes shape based on position and adjacency (Freighter floor decking for example), Blender will not show the correct layout, just the basic part. it's 99% tho.

I still prefer to design Corvettes in the in-game Station builder. It is way faster and more intuitive for experimenting and refining a design and part layout. Blender shines when you want to put something at an angle, resize something you will no longer attach anything to or touch, and stuff like that.

@dusty rapids #nms-showcase-corvettes message

• it does, of course. it's just a wonder projector, as long as you have it in the personal records section you will be able to use it
• the hardest part is honestly just putting it where you want it to be (i heavily recommend using the corvette transfer tech to use a build camera while you're working on the corvette. the alternative is to build "scaffolds" out of parts, which mitigates the sway (since if you want to put it on the underside of the ship like i did, you'd have to place it in a precise manner), but the transfer tech is also gonna be useful. you're gonna have to transfer the wonder projector to the corvette anyway), the rest is simple. just use the unlimited scaling glitch to scale up the wonder projector, and then you can place it wherever you want

this is what she looks like in the menu:

to get it there i dug under the corvette, which was parked in mid-air, and then placed a bunch of wall fans until i got to the distance i needed. and then i got the projector itself centered through pure trial and error

[heady sleet]

Which corpus ship yall think would be better to make?

[raven rover]

I'd say the 1st one looks more interesting

oh man now i want to build the corpus staunchion too

always liked how it looks

[heady sleet]

Yeah

[raven rover]

was thinking of making the grineer galleon first tho

since the shape is weird

😂

[heady sleet]

Would do the other ships but too complicated like this one😭

[raven rover]

Oh yeah

what about the liset?

[heady sleet]

Oh yeah

Could do that one as well

But first comes the corpus ship

[raven rover]

goodluck!

[heady sleet]

Got the shape done just need all the detail stuff and extra parts

Old corvette came in handy

[raven rover]

its mainly just the cylinders that give it the corpus look

them holo flags

🤤

[lunar eagle]

Another day, another new Corvette to build...

[spiral prism]

Living corvette would be cool

[chrome swallow]

i'm just hoping for more corvette parts

living corvette parts as an expedition reward would be peak

[inner willow]

chat is this tuff

[north jetty]

ddamn

so cute

[static crag]

what is that on the right?

[north jetty]

looksso good now

[north jetty]

a city corvette

[static crag]

It is crazy build

that AINT flying nowhere 😭

[cedar timber]

Is there a way to buy corvette from other ppl?

I hate my cardboard type shi 😔

[gusty forge]

No, the only way to get other players corvettes is if they’ve been submitted to the service bot and downloading them from said bot

[raven rover]

i mean you could just follow guides

[chrome swallow]

Sides could do with some texturing but the design is tuff

[north jetty]

random ship i made which i thought looked cool

[nimble stirrup]

Try asking around in #nms-lfg-or-trades

[mental jetty]

will do sorry about that.

[nimble stirrup]

no worries!

[plain willow]

Played around with another corvette design and I absolutely love it, however I can't figure out anywhere to put the cockpit or access 😢

[stable frost]

i would love the have one of these but i'm just too stupid to build one 😭

[low veldt]

What is corvette workshop cache inventory for?

Just storing parts?

[crude oasis]

yep

how is my finished ship

compared to the skeleton?

[lunar eagle]

That/s not entirely true. Someone could build you a Corvette, export the JSON data, email/DM you the file, and you could save edit it in, as if you were using an external editor yourself.

[gusty forge]

True tho I doubt manny players would know how to do that hence why I didn’t mention it

[lunar eagle]

I suggest you search for "Lindan" on YT and follow one of his build tutorials for one of his designs you like. Just build it, see how he uses space and alignment, etc. His videos include howto half-step parts, so they are great intros to corvette building.

[cedar timber]

Hmm

If i dont get lazy while doing it i sure will thanks!

[gusty forge]

I just started building and tinkering and trying stuff and that’s how I learned to build corvettes lol

[lunar eagle]

Have you ever read "Swords Comic"?

[lunar eagle]

That's true, and I always forget about console players

[crude oasis]

the only comic I'vee read was spider-man. So, no

[plain willow]

okay I figured it out, not perfect but it will do for tonight! will work on it some more tomorrow if anyone has any ideas

[crude oasis]

looks hot

[lost moss]

Don't like how the balls are colliding at the back, maybe cover them up with something
Since you'd be covering them up, it may be good to have something covering up the exposed walkway top near the cockpit, too

A common trend I see is to put something overhanging the cockpit

[cedar timber]

Wow

Its

Perfect

[lucid ravine]

Bro has some balls

[final shale]

Would be really cool with cockpit at the back

[crude oasis]

everyone says that and most of them say it exclusively (because it's true)

[keen halo]

does the delivery bot ever work?

[sharp plover]

Can anyone please come up with a name idea for this ship?

[willow lichen]

Is it still possible to do vertical corvette builds?

Because I can’t seem to place a angled window

Was the trick patched out

Or do I just suck at placing windows?

Would love to know

[spice narwhal]

Hetog's Prize FG8

/j

[sharp plover]

Interesting I shall put it to thought

[spice narwhal]

lol that was my impression of the autogenerated starship names

[lost moss]

Rokash's Void-Dancer XG-3
Mother of the Watsumi
etc.

[fair pilot]

Nice and sleek potato, reminds me about Keelback from Elite.

[sharp plover]

I shall pretend I know what that is! (I am an idiot) honestly I just tried to base it off a small sketch I made in thirty seconds then make it better

[fair pilot]

Small freighter from Elite Dangerous that can carry the fighter ship.

[sharp plover]

Oh! Looks cool… and now I definitely see the similarities 😅

[fair pilot]

So something like Keelback Reconstructed would be very NMS-ish name

[sharp plover]

Thank you for the input!

[olive tide]

Finally managed to make some more slender looking ship than my usual designs

[turbid pike]

Hey whats the trick to get a mirror part snapped on the other side? So odd that one will, but the other won't.

[subtle wolf]

Someone should do the Marauder shuttle from "The Bad Batch".

[royal solar]

Pitch to me, what’s the deal about a corvette?

[deft spruce]

🤷‍♂️

[lost moss]

Basically a cross between freighter base and a starship

It can fly like a normal starship, but can contain most of the things of a freighter base

And if you are a creative type, designing your own can be a deep dark rabbit hole

In combat, small corvettes have one notable advantage over normal starships, which is that the Phase Beam can do way more damage

[oak lodge]

Yo is there a way to do a quarter vertical offset?

[lunar eagle]

external tools liek Blender.

Dropped the part count by close to 100 by getting rid of decals and the second set of OFF WORLD pixel text in favor of other signs

I will probably peel off the billboard border lights for the meet next week, cut down another 72 parts.

[rocky ginkgo]

Can anyone please explain to me why my corvette maneuverability is always lower when i launch the game forcing me to go to a soace station edit it (i dont actually have to change anything) and then it goes back to how it should be?

[tawdry wyvern]

I wonder how people land some of these Corvettes

They huge

[lost moss]

You don't have to land on a planet at least

just hover in the air

[tawdry wyvern]

That's true

I always forget I can do that and I just land

[lost moss]

Draft of a ship I'm making that's heavily inspired by the Frontier from Starfield
I realized pretty early on that closely matching the Starfield "NASApunk" aesthetic would be extremely challenging/impossible in vanilla, so I decided to lean harder into NMS's own aesthetic sensibilities. You can maybe think of this as an NMS-ified Frontier

[raven rover]

flat land

😂

[spiral prism]

Nice zeppelin

[spice narwhal]

dude it's a blimp 😭
