[manic tangle]

half way over 2 habs doesnt count

[zealous sinew]

yeah but i was wondering if there is some sort of glitch that allows it to be opened up

[manic tangle]

no

not afaik

[tight relic]

this one looks fire

[knotty flicker]

The base building app everyone keeps mentioning—is it the one from DjMonkey on Nexus Mods? Thinking of giving it a try

[knotty flicker]

Can I just leave my Corvette parts in the storage at the station? I've got like two storage containers dedicated to 'vette parts

[manic tangle]

yeh theres a storage box for them. 160 parts at 500 each

[knotty flicker]

Sweet. Gonna offload next time I dock

I have a hoarding problem lmao

[manic tangle]

same

my storage boxes are a nightmare, no organization

[knotty flicker]

I try to organize somewhat, but there are so many categories of items

Ten storage containers isn't exactly enough

I'm considering using some mods, but I'm worried about updates breaking things

[knotty escarp]

For a while I was using random ships as rotatable storage units. Just grabbing the cheapest crap that flew into space stations. Named them based on what they were dedicated to holding.

But I got better, mainly because I was tired of trying to keep track of everything.

[worthy mica]

I just use my freighter but I have a second corvette that I can use for storage

[abstract crow]

I love when I've already put some serious effort into a new design and then suddenly have a great idea to try that would require me to completely restart.

[grim barn]

i traded for 2 arcadia heavy boosters and i lost the items i traded with and didnt get the booster

anyone know why and how to get them back

[terse kestrel]

#nms-modding

They will be able to help you out. As far as the ones people use, how to use them and import modded assets to your game properly

[random zinc]

did you look in all inventories?

[grim barn]

yh dude

[random zinc]

then I think save editing is your only option to getting stuff back

I think there's a bug when you do trading and your exosuit has no free slots, but this is only second hand "knowledge"

[terse kestrel]

If your exosuit is full and you delete Corvette parts they vanish. You have to have slots in your suit inventory when deleting

[random zinc]

I heard it affects trading as well

[grim barn]

🙏

[thin raven]

I am proud to introduce you to Altay-1, which I designed after working hard on it and inspired by Star Wars.

[swift mist]

@hot narwhal ill look into learning how to make a build guide but i cant promise anything

[abstract crow]

Moar impractically large corvettes!

[swift mist]

@tough plank https://youtu.be/y6Jdh3MhETw?si=lv6mNYCvpEIDgxdy

fairly simple

[tough plank]

Cool, thanks.

Arcadia Wind Modules flipped would be insane.

[swift mist]

you just need one accessible reversed part and you can build off from it

so you dont have to place a stairway for every time you want a reversed piece

a reversed part can also overlap and occupy* the same space as a non reversed part

[tough plank]

[gritty timber]

So, funny story. I've trapped myself inside my corvette and can't get out. 😬

[terse ingot]

How

[gritty timber]

A bad building decision and a buggy landing pad.

[terse ingot]

Oh...

[gritty timber]

Tried building an internal staircase to try and get out but it didn't work, so I'm not sure what I can do apart from starting a new game.

[terse ingot]

Can't get to the cockpit either?

[glass surge]

try building a classic chair if you have it in the base building menu, sit in it and then get out

also you can try reloading your save from the options menu

[gritty timber]

I put a new exhaust on the back of my ship and it's blocking the hatch. I can get into the cockpit and have tried building the chair as well as the ladder. No joy.

[hot narwhal]

All we can ask for is a try, thank you

[warm breach]

would it be possible to make this type of ship?

[glass surge]

stylisticly maybe buty if you want a exact model you'd end up having to mod the game

[warm breach]

everything would be doable but the wings are the problem

[glass surge]

then i'd reload the save or the entire game which mean losing work

[terse ingot]

If you can get to the cockpit enter and fly

[glass surge]

yeah forward swept wings and that go down would not be easy

[gritty timber]

I can do that, but wherever I land I still can't get out 🙁

I'm probably missing something really obvious though, knowing my brain 😄

[warm breach]

freighter and use teleporter

[gritty timber]

Ah, so if I use the in-ship teleporter that will work inside the freighter?

[warm breach]

should work

[gritty timber]

Nice, I'll try that in a few - thanks!

[terse ingot]

Is the hatch blocked?

[gritty timber]

Yep

[terse ingot]

Can't you use the teleporter to teleport to the ground?

The red button

[gritty timber]

Tried that but I can't activate it. It's like the ship part is blocking it somehow.

[terse ingot]

Oh...

Then try the freighter one

It should work

[warm breach]

what i do in that situation is reload autosave mid air until you glitch through the ground

[gritty timber]

I did not know you could do that.

[warm breach]

i had it happen to me once and that was the only way i could escape

[glass surge]

I wonder if you get just get otuside the station and then summon a ship to escape and then summon a differentr ship that you can get in and out of

[warm breach]

theres a wall at the space station entrance

[wanton river]

I've heard that there's a hole somewhere in station for when you glitch through. Have not bothered actually looking though

[gritty timber]

The freighter trick worked - thank you so much!

[weary totem]

My new corvette (creative mod)

[untold crag]

;-; why can't i do stuff like that

[trail hornet]

practice

[ebon hatch]

I just watched a vid on offset and other placements. Ny head is spinning. Definately gotta practice in creative mode.

[subtle wolf]

You can just change your difficulty settings to custom, basically get the same thing tbh.

[steady dirge]

I'm really bad at this, send help xD

[manic tangle]

Making a flying saucer? :)

[manic tangle]

The 2 main ways to offset things I use, which I saw in a video, is you can use small vents on a hab to offset its position

[terse kestrel]

It takes a little bit to set up a proper template for 360 building. But once you have it set up it's super easy to build off of it. Allowing more circular builds in vanilla

https://youtu.be/SC78MQfcMsk?si=7xX79vf7gZqlUlTJ

You can also place a window as decoration outside the main Corvette build menu. This allows you to build Habs at any angle you wish.

[errant depot]

Unless it was patched since I last logged in, you can also build on any offset you like using a mag rail

[velvet ruin]

a whagt

[tall plank]

why do some of the thrusters not work?

[terse kestrel]

After so many thrusters visually some of them will start shutting down. The same goes with rockhoppers

[manic tangle]

So you’re saying if I tried to make a CR-90 then having 11 thrusters some might not work? >.>

[marsh night]

Decided to try and make a patrol corvette and holy crap the Aeron parts make this thing look intimidating

[tall plank]

isn't there a way to get it to work?

[manic tangle]

Need to get me those parts lol

Gotta find someone who has em though

[marsh night]

Breach redux is coming up in January so you should be able to get the blueprints

[terse kestrel]

It's either a visual bug or a limitation put in place. I'm sure there's some way to bypass it or fix it with a mod. But I don't know of any way to force them in vanilla

[manic tangle]

Hmmm but that means I have to wait and ugh

Breach redux runs from Dec to Jan also i'd suggest turning off Multiplayer for that one as it was a massive issue for bugs when it ran earlier this year

[knotty escarp]

@icy oar Titans are set into the ship's main mass, eliminating that "enormous extra space" issue.

Idk why that looks so compressed. Never had a photomode shot look so chunky...

[icy oar]

Ooh that looks nice

[marsh night]

Cool

[knotty escarp]

This thing's a nightmare in general. I was just messing around with whatever crazy thing came into my head at any moment. It has a tendancy to trap anyone who tries to climb around on it. lol

[fervent mist]

Is there a way to turn a gun to its side to where it faces the side of the ship?

[knotty escarp]

Idk if there is. You might be able to glitch it somehow, or use an external editor and mods to force it to happen, but I think weapons specifically are extremely rigid in what they can be made to do.

[glass surge]

If you mean sideways like old Galleon ships of old then i think you'd have to mod that in or see if you can make a cannon like object with the decorations available in base mode

[knotty escarp]

That's how I've seen it done. Not actual weapons, but something made to look a lot like a weapon.

[terse kestrel]

You would have to set up the guns on a Hab that's built at 90°. Then remove those habs

At that point they would stay pointed to the left and right of your ship. Looking like they're attached to whatever is underneath them.

@manic tangle yeah I do not have the mental ability or talent to build something that cool

[random zinc]

the message from gunter is just regularly scheduled message

[fervent mist]

Now I hate my ships cuz my ship's ugly compared to Captain Rexs lol

[random zinc]

it does that even for normal conversations here

[manic tangle]

This is as far as I got before being cut off by not being able to place pieces at the back

Rip engine section

[fervent mist]

That modded?

[random zinc]

probably because it's a corvette builder and not a frigate builder 🙂

[manic tangle]

May have to redo it a bit and try to place the bugged glass gather forwards

[fervent mist]

God I wish I could find people to play this game with

[manic tangle]

xD

[manic tangle]

Nope, made it using vanilla pieces and some glitches

[fervent mist]

I'm so glad they separated the inside from the outside to the inside build limit on the outside

I don't know of any glitches in no man's sky

[manic tangle]

The one that allows you to build vertically is a glitch

The 2 other bits are just creative (maybe glitches) ways of using how to things snap

Like a small vent will let you offset habs to build things slightly out of position and get more depth

The big open circle rockhopper can be placed at 3 points on the right side of a big hab, letting you shift things forwards or backwards easily.

Only works on one side though not both

[random zinc]

I'd call those glitches. Doesn't seem like that was intended or it'd be easier.

[manic tangle]

Ehh let’s just hope they don’t ’fix’ them without adding better building

[random zinc]

of course I've used those techniques, though

[solid sage]

hey how come nobody didnt told me that corvette nutrient processor has ingredient storage that i didnt know about

[manic tangle]

Pretty sure it’s a general storage?

[solid sage]

i didnt bother look at bottom middle while cooking food

[knotty escarp]

IT is

[manic tangle]

Like you get one per save and can access it from any nutrient processor

[knotty escarp]

There's just one universal ingredients storage

[manic tangle]

Works like the storage boxes

[solid sage]

oh

[manic tangle]

You get 10 to place at any base but it’s only 10 storages accessible from any of the same number

[random zinc]

it stores so little though 🙁

[solid sage]

while didnt know about that on corvette

[manic tangle]

Ah yeah you can make a refiner and all the storage boxes too

[solid sage]

cool

[manic tangle]

Also a mission board to do missions without the anomaly

[random zinc]

just don't put two refiners on the same wall of a long hab

[manic tangle]

Does that break them or something? lol

[knotty escarp]

That always bugged me about that storage. You put one stack of something in it, and it takes up 2 slots.

[random zinc]

yes. they are considered by the game to be one inventory location so you lose stuff

[solid sage]

i always use one refiner

[manic tangle]

Does the small storage box you can build actually store anything? Like the one to place anywhere not a big wall one

[manic tangle]

Weird

[random zinc]

yeah, it's probably a bug

[random zinc]

I use 2 or 3 at a time typically

[manic tangle]

Deleted my Stellar extractors btw :x got sick of them losing stuff if I warped anywhere

[random zinc]

Mine stopped doing that once I started quitting to the desktop rather than the mode select screen after saving

[glass surge]

the happens with ALL refiners because the game de-renders it when it's not in your immediate view; you pretty much have to babysit refiners

[solid sage]

well my cargo hauler corvette has 10

[fervent mist]

Show me your sculpted corvettes! I put industrial pumps in the wing nacelles- the steam anims aren’t visible while flying. I love how this turned out

What non-corvette parts do you like to throw on your builds?

[fervent mist]

By the power of Grayskull…!

Love that build! So wildly different

[elder iron]

Haven't had that happen, but i know the interaction zones can overlap when things are close to each other

I had to move a refiner when doing the corvette expedition because it overlapped with either the hatch lever or button

[terse kestrel]

#nms-showcase-corvettes message

It's a shared inventory bug. I haven't had it happen in a while

Only happened in long Habs with refiners or kitchen on same wall. But thought they patched it

[abstract crow]

And so it begins. Eclipse class 3.0: Longer, larger, taller, new hull design, but still just as impractical as ever.

[terse kestrel]

My God

Is your PC ok?

[abstract crow]

Funny enough, I'm not lagging when doing the hab glitch like I usually do.

Think I conditioned my PC to just accept this.

"Oh no. He's doing it again."

[solid sage]

oh no dnt bring it to anomaly everyone might crash jk

[abstract crow]

I don't think it'd fit.

[swift mist]

by seamless gap, do you mean like a transition between the blades?

[hollow anchor]

Yeah exactly, so like think banana shaped almost? nice smooth gapless wing design

Originally I was going to do windows to view from the wings, but I am thinking moving the viewing area further back and making a slightly longer ship now since this isn't working out how I pictured

[swift mist]

ill fire up nms and play around

do you know how to offset parts?

[hollow anchor]

Nope, this is my first time doing a major custom build on my own

[swift mist]

if you have time to watch the offset video in the pinned messages of this channel, i highly recommend it

makes merging parts to create smooth transitions easier

[hollow anchor]

I didn't realize there were so many videos pinned in here, might spend some time watching those to get some ideas for my ship

[knotty escarp]

@fervent mist per your comment in the corvette image thread: You should have the option to just create a new corvette at the build station. It won't override your existing one, just save it so you can recall it at any time.

If it's not allowing you to start a fresh one, you have a rather odd bug going on.

[terse kestrel]

Thank you again for your wonderful suggestion and help with this.

https://youtu.be/E81iXiksCe4

[manic tangle]

Can you place more than one cockpit?

Like say I wanna make a ship that has a rear gunner, can I place a cockpit for it even if I don’t use it?

[elder iron]

As i have learned, the game wont let you

[manic tangle]

Hmmm unfortunate.

[terse kestrel]

It's kind of like Beebelbums how to build a circle video. Just a different way of doing it. You can include it as an alternative. I just found Beeblebums way a bit easier to do

[terse kestrel]

#nms-corvette-discussion message

He pulled it off but not sure how. May want to ask him the way to do it

[solid sage]

knowing building corvette ships it would be great if introduce like say Costume Exocraft like how we all do for ships just a thought something like that similer to corvette but diffirent but idk.

[manic tangle]

How did ya do it?

[elder iron]

A non-normal method

[manic tangle]

I’m sure but I’d like to know it xD

[elder iron]

I tried slapping every corvette part i had on my breach corvette to transfer over and it didnt let me save the design of a corvette with multiple cockpits

[marsh night]

Which nose do y’all think looks better? They both look good but I can’t decide which one I like more

[solid sage]

the 2nd image looks better

[swift mist]

got a top-down angle?

[marsh night]

One sec

[hardy badge]

Thank you! It's good to know that the "build a circle" covers it. cc @remote crypt

[marsh night]

Here’s the 2nd one with a better angle

I want this thing to have a sharp and aggressive look to it

[swift mist]

the 1st one is more aggressive to me but i like how the 2nd flows better

[marsh night]

I could try swapping the middle pieces for speedbird cowlings and see how that looks

[swift mist]

just an idea

[balmy cedar]

I was wrong

Disregard it

I mistakenly didn't see the error it pops up bc I only did it in the build menu

Hmmm

How should I go about making the front look right?

I think it's at max parts

[velvet ruin]

thats a cool one

i like the main body especially

[balmy cedar]

SR2 Normandy in the Sr1 colours

A symetrical ship

I call it the SSV harmony

[mighty cloud]

Is there a way to get an opening that gives access to the top exterior of a Corvette?

[velvet ruin]

Just put some stairs there

[knotty escarp]

You can also have a hab section on level with the rest of the top, then use an entrance ramp to make a "door" of sorts

[mighty cloud]

Oh yeah, that one that's like perfectly vertical?

[knotty escarp]

Nah, just stack a hab on top of the top as normal, slap a ramp on the end, and it acts like a doorway. Of course that could totally wreck the appearance you're going for, so the concept of just having a ladder from a hab up to the "roof" could be the better option for you.

I'll slap together something real quick to show what I'm talking about.

[mighty cloud]

Could it also work with this?

If my Corvette has 3 layers and I put this on top?

[knotty escarp]

I haven't really messed with those much because they can be so glitchy. Half the time I'll fall right through it when it when I activate the lift.

This is what I'm talking about doing

I think if you used the lift unit, you'd still need to have a ramp opening anyway

[mighty cloud]

Mmhh... I see!

[knotty escarp]

lifts are just an enclosed box

[worthy mica]

I have access to the parts.

[knotty escarp]

I could definitely go for the Atlas parts. I took like 2 years off from the game and randomly came back 36 hours after the expedition ended. I didn't even know it was happening. lol

[worthy mica]

they are cool but I dunno if i’ll really be using them much

I have my minivette and thats all I really need

Its kind of a moc but I have decals all over it.

[knotty escarp]

I'm enjoying vette building way too much. Like I just built this thing, based on an even dumber idea that it evolved out of:

Thorps Hammer

[knotty escarp]

I was legit going to just build a big hollow square with connector pieces, a cockpit at the front, and some engines. Then the Ghost song "Square Hammer" popped into my head and this stupidity was born. It actually cannot land anywhere outside a space station for some reason (though I haven't tried water yet). Also handles like a grain silo. lol

[manic tangle]

You can actually get a second cockpit on, though it only counts the first one you placed so dont place that one in a bad spot you cant get out of.

also i just made this :x

wings are a little jank cuz of how i had to get it to make the cyclos work

Made some improvements

@dark juniper Is this a close enough approxamation? lol

even has decent accessable slots for building storage and other modules you want

[solid sage]

oops my bad my cargo hauler corvette has 24 refiners i went through recounting them

Thats my Cargo Hauler corvette ive made

has everything i need

[manic tangle]

hey apparently when you have refiners next to eachother in a long hab, it breaks their inventories and can lose you items

[solid sage]

every each 24 refiner's i have on it is 1 in each hab

there not together i hv no issue for past mouth

[solid sage]

i dont / the setup is not having them together completely diffirent 100% work for me so im getting 20x more resources then take it to my frieghter crafting items i need plus storage i have on my cargo hauler to do sum runs.

Yo is that a z-95 headhunter?!

[manic tangle]

Nah its a 170, but i couldnt make the open wing bits lol

not in a good looking way anyways

[manic tangle]

Might make a headhunter though

[manic tangle]

yeh :)

considering this too

[spare sedge]

@jagged tide

Its small enough that you can see every part from the photos but id recommend building the frame, so to speak, and then filling up the space between the blades in your own unique way. I bet you can get it prettier than i have it. Its one standard row on the bottom, with 3 rows above it. build the blades vertically on the top and bottom of the top row, remove the piece connecting them to the center row, then slip an aeron engine in between them, mounted on that remaining central row. The cowling of the engine will touch the floating blades, reconnecting them to the ship. That will give you the frame to play around with.

i believe to get the two top row decorative Aeron wedges to be two abreast like that i mounted two guns to the midpoint location on a central wedge piece, deleted the wedge, mounted scaffolding pieces to them, then the aeron wedges, then deleted the scaffolding. but im not 100% sure it was a while ago 😅

but i know wedge pieces do have 2 mounting points on either side halfway down the wedge for sure

shes no slouch either! focused on just maxing out the phase beam cause it 2 shots almost any ship

[distant sky]

Will you make this next?

[manic tangle]

Most likely lol. I almost finished a Nebulon B but I couldn’t make the engine section due to spacing with how I got the glitch for the vertical section :(

Got stuck here.

[manic tangle]

:p

[distant sky]

Looks very nice, how did u take the pics tho

[spare sedge]

press x or down arrow on the d-pad to open up the quick menu and scroll over to photo mode

uhm ok nvm the infra knife is way better damn

[abstract crow]

Things are coming along nicely. The base hull layer being Arcadia wings, and then the Atlas wings layered on top looks solid. I want to go up one more layer, and I need to squash that top layer down to remove the gaps. Then I need to decide how open I want the interior.

[steel sigil]

Are most of these ships built in creative or are travelers collecting/purchasing parts In normal

[spare sedge]

seems like a wide range between pure vanilla, to a few tricks and glitches, to full blown custom builds. little bit of everything from what ive seen

[abstract crow]

One of the mods I have installed inadvertently gave me free crafting without actually having it enabled. Not that it makes a difference because I'd be in free build anyways for these massive ships.

The ships that are essentially a 1:1 replica of star destroyers and cruisers and so on are built in the base building app.

[steel sigil]

So the app is completely separate from the game? I found nexusmod when I search for it.

[abstract crow]

The base builder app is on Nexus Mods, but it's basically blender for NMS.

Separate program, like the save editors.

[random zinc]

Has anyone experimented with off-center cockpits? Does it feel weird?

[terse kestrel]

I did that using Thunderbird cockpit and it caused that issue where your nose points up during auto pilot. Not sure if it's a guarantee it will happen every time but I didn't try again

[abstract crow]

I wonder what a backwards cockpit would do.

[spare sedge]

working perfectly fine in here. no hab either. just entryway straight to cockpit

entrance through the hood lol

Medusa kinda resembles a big air intake filter so i didnt mind the asymmetry there

[random zinc]

how quickly can you start building corvette after starting a creative game?

[ornate crystal]

As soon as you get to a space station

All parts are available with free crafting

Although there are a few modules locked behind an expedition (not an issue if you're on PC)

The Atlas engines currently offer the best stats (assuming you care about performance)

[random zinc]

I want to experiment with new shapes without compromising my main save

[vague crest]

Can anyone tell me why my lights outside the corvette are no longer working it used to look like this but not its this

🙁

[terse kestrel]

Usually just have to reload the game and it will fix it.

[vague crest]

Tried that a few times sadly

I also tried the true IT method of hitting it

[terse kestrel]

How many lights and electronic devices do you have on your ship? Corvettes do have a maximum power output and things will start shutting down if you put too much on it

[vague crest]

zero its bare bones

just the lights

[terse kestrel]

How many reactors do you have on it?

[vague crest]

4

[terse kestrel]

Zooming in on it the first picture......a few things

1. you're a madman for hand placing all those

2. You really don't need all those

3. I think you overloaded your lighting and removing some of those will probably help out.

[vague crest]

LOL

yes yes i am insane

[terse kestrel]

Obviously

[vague crest]

Ill try deleting them and restarting then reloading after a save

i shall report back!

[terse kestrel]

There are flat wall panels you can use to cover those areas. And with five or six lights behind that panel it will give it an area effect of lighting that will do similar to what you are looking for

[vague crest]

See u gotta make these paintful time consuming mistakes to learn that

xD

[abstract crow]

That's why I repeatedly build more Eclipse-class cruisers. I always want to do something else to make them even better.

Like my latest version. Combining the atlas wings with the Arcadia wings for the hull, a much larger and spacious interior, a wider keel, and new paint.

[random zinc]

what's an Eclipse-class cruiser?

[abstract crow]

Big space boat

[solid sage]

you dont know what Eclipse class cruiser is oh ur in the blank of the ride man

[random zinc]

I don't know what that is. I only see C-, B-, A-, and S-class ships

[solid sage]

in game is that but name wise its the corvette build witch rename ur corvette knowing the C/B/A/S but its referring to type of class of ship u make then go through renaming the ship of its class type depending what u r building is what they ment btw

[abstract crow]

E comes after S in ranking. E for extra special. Eclipse-class = E-Class.

[solid sage]

like this person said.

[random zinc]

Hmm... gotta figure out how to make one then

[solid sage]

only if added that special class type higher then S witch is E

[silk zealot]

Is it true that phase beam turrets multiply your dmg

[abstract crow]

The key to building an E-Class ship is by throwing on a bunch of Atlas parts.

[solid sage]

same with other weapon turrets depends what type u like more or what u want to add to ur corvette

[silk zealot]

Hmm afaik the other turrets basically divide your fire rate by 3 and then have the 3 turrets shoot

[solid sage]

one of my corvette has 6 turret 2 of 3 types of turrets im using and have all 6 to shoot that i got working and pack a bunch in dmg

[terse kestrel]

So E for Edge?

[abstract crow]

Extra special, though edgy also works.

And E for EEK! which is what my PC says when I load the ship.

[terse kestrel]

Why are people against mainlining phase beams? Just based on the numbers they consistently have the highest DPS

[abstract crow]

My phase beams serve as my main battery cannons because they look the best.

[terse kestrel]

I mean I can get variety for aesthetics. But practicality and gameplay purposes you still want to be able to destroy dreadnoughts as fast as possible

[odd patio]

Weird question but I missed the expedition 20 does any one have any spare parts I can have?

[random zinc]

I don't want to get too used to it if they decide to nerf it

[terse kestrel]

They really can't Nerf it. If anything they would just come out with a separate beam type platform separate from the phase beam completely.

Similar to what they did with the deadeye Cannon replacing the positron ejector.

[random zinc]

well they can make it so that only three phase beam weapon spots fire at a time

and only the actual weapon spots fire and not all your weapon spots

[elder iron]

I mainly use phase beams for anything requiring sustained focused damage

Still like using cyclotron on shields though

[fair pilot]

too many of them.

Game can normally breathe with around 110 lights on the corvette.

[abstract crow]

There is a mod that increases how many engines/weapons actually work. But it broke my game two updates ago and I'm scared to try it again. Really did look cool while it worked

[manic tangle]

Some of them I built on a different save to test them, the Acclamator I farmed and traded parts for

[terse kestrel]

So after testing......sorry to all you rocket enthusiasts.
You can not fly a vertical ship

[balmy cedar]

Just make it a sideways rocket

EZ

Like a big Bullet

Maybe with a fin or two

Like

The normal flat way

Like sideways from how that thing is sideways

Aka the default

[terse kestrel]

Well people have been asking if you can build it vertical and it will shift you into a horizontal position. When you enter it.

[balmy cedar]

Yeah

[terse kestrel]

Since it recenters itself like that on planets

[balmy cedar]

That's just how corvettes work

[terse kestrel]

Granted I didn't test this on a planet. Maybe it will work there. But doesn't work on a station or anomaly

[balmy cedar]

If it lands like that on station it's the same On Planet

[elder iron]

I curse myself for my inability to think of taking pictures

[abstract crow]

Put a post-it note on your screen.

[elder iron]

I want to advocate for corvettes designed in the style of the other types of starships, but I never took a screenshot of my own attempt

[elder iron]

Hmm... it may or may not work

I wouldnt tolerate it on my primary monitor, and it might become part of the background if on my secondary monitor

[abstract crow]

Make a post-it note to remember the initial post-in note

[elder iron]

If i used post its more frequently I'd genuinely have those sorts of notes around

[abstract crow]

Be like Double-D's house in Ed, Edd, and Eddy.

[elder iron]

ANYWAY I think basing a corvette design off of a legacy type of starship makes for a neat challenge

The one I made is actually based off of a shuttle I found in my permadeath save

[marsh night]

Is this good? 4700 for a single beam seems low

#nms-showcase-corvettes is where to show off your corvette »

[marsh night]

I used the NMS tech optimizer to generate the layout

[elder iron]

Probably but that thing is gonna steer like a rock

Also recall that there will be multiple beams

[marsh night]

I know that the damage gets multiplied for up to 6 beams - but that’s only 28200 DPS

My best corvette I currently have does 80k with an infra-knife

[elder iron]

Test it

I tend to be satisfied if it instantly destroys asteroids

[marsh night]

Yeah it vaporizes asteroids

I was hoping to do an actual combat test but no pirates are showing up

[terse ingot]

Just shoot a space station and fight Sentinel interceptors

[marsh night]

Yeah the phase beam instantly nukes their shields

[elder iron]

I should try the positron ejector on a corvette again, it deals better damage close range but lately it feels like enemy ships have been right in my face so it wouldnt make much difference, lol

[reef ingot]

Ive been seeing conflincting info on reddit, so i figured id come here. Ive seen claims you can store corvettes in cold storage via freighters but counter arguments that say there's no way to store corvettes yet at all. I dont yet have a freighter to test. Is there a storage method in place or in the works for future updates? I've got a design I want to keep long term but also want to try multiple builds.

[elder iron]

You cannot store corvettes

[abstract crow]

You can't.

[elder iron]

In terms of keeping multiple designs, it would probably be better to make a creative save for that

[abstract crow]

Don't think there's a mod for that either. Best you can do is save the JSON somewhere, I guess.

[elder iron]

Otherwise, you probably wouldnt have any real reason to have more than six corvettes total

[reef ingot]

hm. ok. creative may be the way to go in that case. I typically prefer "earned" progress vs creative in games but I'll try creative.

[elder iron]

You can still have multiple corvettes

I have 5 on my main save, which is normal difficulty

[reef ingot]

hm. I must have done something wrong. I no longer can summon my first corvette, not that im attached to that one in any way.

[honest kettle]

do corvettes work on switch now? i have it on steam anyway i just wanna play cozy in bed

[reef ingot]

my second corvette is the only one i can summon. unsure if I bugged or something. im not running any mods.

[marsh night]

Switch 1, no. Switch 2, yes

[honest kettle]

sadge, but valid

[elder iron]

I remember hearing others having an issue like this, but idk what it would be

Is it that your first doesnt have enough launch fuel?

[hardy oracle]

Launch fuel shouldn't matter if summoned on a station, so try it there if you haven't already

[solid sage]

btw to let everyone know since ive tested every possible way so the max of turrets u can get working is 6 depending on witch type u used

plus need right amount of reactor to get it to work reccomended is 2 or 3

[terse kestrel]

Reddit in a nutshell

"I don't know if this is true but I saw someone say it and they got up votes so I'm going to say it as if it's fact so I seem knowledgeable"

It's why I left the NMS Reddit community after years of it being the main place I was involved

Here we got checks and balances and vets that counter BS in real time 😂

[reef ingot]

The fall of reddit is very real. Theres still some good pockets to be found though.

[reef ingot]

I wouldnt think so, i had the solar chargers. It was my Aeron build from expedition parts, nothing fancy, but despite visiting stations and the anomaly i cant summon it.

So im reluctant to make another on my current save at risk of my meticulous 99 piece hotrod. Lol

[solid sage]

?

btw how to increase universal community research progress

[manic tangle]

its a community project. Needs more than just one person doing the tasks

[ember plaza]

hey yall

can i add like an easy dock to enter my cockpit faster

i have a corvette

its just the docks i have r annoying

i have the vertical dock and the ambassador one

[solid sage]

oh ok

[terse kestrel]

Something like that?

[ember plaza]

uh

no i mean on da ship

not at my base

like

are the 3 docks that exist the ONLY way to enter

[terse kestrel]

Not if you make a drop ship with side access

[ember plaza]

how do i do that

here i’ll show my corvette

[terse kestrel]

#nms-corvette-discussion message

[west hamlet]

When can they increase the slot or allow us to put corvette in archive, 12 really aint enough plus I do need to keep an ship in the active roster

[knotty escarp]

I'd imagine that archiving is something they're working toward, especially given that corvettes alone have caused the highest continuous player count in the game's history.

[west hamlet]

Just gotta wait for the next patch patiently ig, both my save are full rn so really don't have room to store any more

[knotty escarp]

I'm trying to avoid that happening to me. Then I went and built that silly flying hammer. lol

[tranquil hedge]

can you share links here?
https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/1p4clzx/our_journey_continues_stargate_universe_destiny/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

[pseudo forge]

Maybe off topic but the Stargate ship made me think of this. Amazon is developing a new Stargate show. Hurrah!

[pure spire]

Aha, got it. What do you guys think of this for a first time build? No glitches, just threw it together for a practice gunship.

[spare sedge]

super clean i like it

[pure spire]

Thanks. It's got mirrored phases lances on the ventral side as well. 6 total. It can melt anything I want it too.

[tranquil hedge]

yeee, it will be something new. Its gonna be a cool premise, I have its a 'we found a stargate and dont know anything about it' type of deal instead of we already know all about it. Because you know its story is set in modern times

[fervent mist]

So how exactly like what is the step by step process I need to take to be able to make another Corvette without overriding my first one

[knotty escarp]

You should just be able to create a new one at the corvette terminal. The other will just be saved aside and you can summon it from the quick menu.

[bleak leaf]

What do you guys rate my parking spot?

[fervent mist]

i thought yall said we could have more than one corvette?, Because i have 4 ship slots avalable yet after building a new corvette its asking me to transfer my uinvatory from my star destroyer and trade it for my new design like wtf man darn i dont wanna lose my star destroyer wth

[fervent mist]

its asking me to replace my old one or abandon the new one

[knotty escarp]

That might be something for a bug report.

!hg

[lament abyss]

Submit bug reports, suggestions or feedback to Hello Games here: https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[knotty escarp]

Might also try archiving one of your ships on your freighter at the fleet terminal. just make sure it doesn't have any cargo in it first. It'll keep the tech it has, but cargo will be wiped.

[fervent mist]

-how do i check to see how many ships i have?

[knotty escarp]

The quick menu should show every active ship available when you go to summon.

Your archive is probably empty.

[fervent mist]

ima try the corvette thingie again now

[manic tangle]

did you pick the create new corvette option or edit your current one

[fervent mist]

when it asks me to compare invatories, or leave workshop does this mean im losing my star destroyer if i say replace?

YAAAAAY! It let me add it to my collectoion

[manic tangle]

you shouldnt be able to destroy another corvette with your current new one xd

[halcyon sky]

12/10

[knotty escarp]

The Walmart Special.

[fervent mist]

hey yall how in gods name do i make the camera go free from my character, i cant do anything with my ship wiuth the camera stuck near my character he moves so slow its not even practical, do they not have a free cam option?

[remote crypt]

Not when corvette building or decorating

[fervent mist]

then how can yall see anything when building on it, every part i try to put on the outside is right up in my face and glitches out the camer, its impossible for me to build anything klike this

[remote crypt]

I put like two decals on the outside

[knotty escarp]

lol

If you're doing like base decorations and parts, I think it would be easier to go land the corvette at your base and work there. You should be able to use the build camera then. I haven't really played with decorations, but I seem to recall that camera doesn't work inside the station.

You could also try switching to first person view while building

[fervent mist]

its what im doing as im trying to build this by aranging mine because the way he did this i cant do on console and i dm you

yea im done with this fucking game, aside from the fact that its impossable to find people play with to the fact i cant build anything cool on console sucks. I hate how pc players have such an unfair advantage in gaming,Im done playing alone alone is worse than death to me but lack of ability to at least make something cool is the end of my desire to play. Yall have a good night and christmas

[abstract crow]

Then buy a PC..? Or the new Steam Machine when it drops? And you absolutely can build cool stuff on console. I've seen plenty of people doing just that in the #nms-showcase-corvettes

[remote crypt]

Console doesn't stop cool, it stops mods

#1418605454300549120

Multiplayer groups ^

[fervent mist]

id did for ame and i already deleted the game and my saves that had more progress all the way back to the day the game came out on consoles, deleted

[remote crypt]

Okie dokie

[distant sky]

Looks very sick, I made this one yesterday. Its from the old republic

[manic tangle]

Nice

[distant sky]

What ships will you make next?

[wanton river]

Now to make your character look like huyang

[knotty escarp]

You do realize that you have to make Santa and his Sleigh now, right?

[manic tangle]

Someone gave me a guide so I made this lol

[wanton river]

That is excellent

[distant sky]

Yoo the republic frigate

Is it the picture that makes it look so stretched

[manic tangle]

Yeh it’s cuz of nms and my settings lol

[distant sky]

That thing looks sick, do you have any other ships?

[manic tangle]

Not that I’ve made atm

[knotty escarp]

So much Star Wars themed stuff. I'm contemplating going back like 75 years and making the old Flash Gordon rocket ship. Probably would need to go external to make it work though.

[dense timber]

Ah. Barden's?

I have 2 builds I want to do.

I want to build the White Base from Gundam.

And I want to build the Lancer-class Corvette from Halo.

[manic tangle]

I was considering doing the Spirit of Fire but there’s some angles on that ship that I don’t think I can do

Loved halo wars

[dense timber]

Ah, the Phoenix-class Colony ship from Halo Wars. I love that thing too.

My Capital Ship is sometimes called Spirit of Fire.

[manic tangle]

Sometimes? lol

I got a sentinel freighter so I named mine The Omen since it looks similar to an Omen from EVE :p

At least in overall shape

[dense timber]

I change its name sometimes, cause can.

My Capital Ship is a Dreadnought-class Sentinel Freighter.

[manic tangle]

Idk which version mine is lol. It has 3 sections I think

[dense timber]

The wiki calls the 3-segment one a "Sentinel-class Sentinel Freighter".

[remote crypt]

3,5,7 for those

2,4,6 on the venators

[dense timber]

What would we say the max length of a corvette is?

I want to say it can't be more than like... 100m.

#nms-corvette-discussion message

That's how people build stuff like that. Yes there are mods but not everybody likes to use those. Or not allowed to if on console.

Just watch those videos and you'll start getting ideas of things you can do in your own builds

[lone dust]

I took the sputtering trail off my vulture and put it on my big Corvette, and I'm not gonna lie, I like it

[sand plover]

I really gotta make a corvette soon.

[hushed peak]

so uh... how do i get millions of quicksilver for the Atlas parts?

[terse kestrel]

You get atlas part blueprints through he Breach expedition. It's running again in January.

Other than that you need to find a player to trade you some. #nms-lfg-or-trades is your best bet of finding someone willing to do that

[hushed peak]

does the same apply to the corvette shotgun weapon?

[drowsy blaze]

Dead eye cannon yes

[late ore]

Managed to make my corvette look heinous

[abstract crow]

Pfft. I do that all the time.

[balmy cedar]

Eh

I made my function

It flies

It lands

It might even do a barrel-roll

[craggy stratus]

For the 2 hits every ship you better try and get the X class modules for it with Slightly more % of damage, i worked so hard to get the 2 taps but now i have it and it does 25.457 damage per hit, enough to kill even a sentinel ship in 2 hits, and so i also discovered that sentinels ships have 22.000 hp according to my calculations

And idk about the infra knife because i dont have any supercharged slot enable for now because i sold all of them for the motors

And Idk why if is it only me but the infraknife doesnt lock on targets in combat

So i pick up the phase beam that still doesnt lock on targets but can deal full damace in one hit

[mighty dirge]

you can add teleporters to corvettes but they arent functional

[pseudo forge]

Someone can give/trade them to you. Not quick silve but the actual Aeron parts. and then you craft them

[small plaza]

Wonder if you could do Triglavian ships from EVE with those orbs

[dawn sapphire]

out of context, but what is eve online

is it like a star wars game on cracks

all ive heard about the game is that its damn grindy and very addictive (in a bad way, yes)

[small plaza]

Politics and logistics in space

No magic or force though, so it's pretty much the prequels without the jedi

[dawn sapphire]

ahh cool

[small plaza]

Which is the best version of star wars anyway

[dawn sapphire]

is it fun

[small plaza]

Do you consider looking at spreadsheets and numbers going up fun

[dawn sapphire]

then why do so many players play the game lol

[small plaza]

[abstract crow]

Because some people like to suffer and love using Excel for work.

[small plaza]

It's legitimately fun in groups, and especially if you do large scale pvp. I once sat close to 18 hours in a single session with 3k other people and with 10% ti-di as we destroyed the first keepstar ever

Ti di being time dilation, aka server node goes down to 10% speed to keep up with all the calculation demands

So a 30 second cooldown, takes 300

[dawn sapphire]

as a person who sucks at math, im having a stroke

[abstract crow]

I don't do numbers.

[elder iron]

Id guess because its an mmo space game where the setting is influenced a lot by the playerbase

[dawn sapphire]

ooof

[dawn sapphire]

numbers are necessary part of EVE though (i suppose)

[elder iron]

Its a pretty cool thing, but ive heard its ruthless to new players

[dawn sapphire]

yeah learning curve of the game is damn steeeeeeeeeep apparently

[elder iron]

I tend to prefer games that allow you to really build your own ships so idk as much aside from that

I really like corvettes for that reason and the interiors. Theres so few space games that have those features, and the ones that do tend to be limited in other ways

[abstract crow]

Like Starfield

[elder iron]

Or space engineers, where they have shipbuilding and interiors, but youre confined to one star system, which is fine but my dream space game would have interstellar travel at least

[abstract crow]

Maybe one day we'll get a Star Wars sandbox-like game where we can create our own faction, build our own ships and armies, and just go crazy. Customization on par with or even greater than corvettes.

[elder iron]

Imma make one of those graphs where I have a list of the things I'd want in a dream space game and see how close the ones I've played match up

[solid sage]

Well here's a new Corvette design aint perfect but check this out tho what u think of this u probably do this make it much better then me lol

[abstract crow]

Bigger.

[solid sage]

least can fit exocraft probably not colossal one tho

the rest of this be in showcase posting more

[elder iron]

I have one primary criticism

[elder iron]

You have so many exposed habs on the side and zero windows!?

[velvet ruin]

Some windows would go hard on that Corvette

[solid sage]

still working progress its still new just made it today so doing adjustment to it

[tough plank]

It could use some windows, but it still looks good.

[solid sage]

so inspire from star citizen tho but diffirent

[velvet ruin]

Looks like the general consensus is add windows

[steel sigil]

I just started collecting corvette parts from salvage containers and its a tedious process of moving parts from inventory to ship storage. Then on space station, from storage to inventory to cache. Is there another way?

[solid sage]

will do adding windows

[solar hill]

Are corvettes like the smaller starships just with the ability to roam in them (the ability to dock in freighters e.t.c.)

[elder iron]

Don't put them in storage containers, just do the back and forth when ship and exosuit inventories are full

[elder iron]

When you interact with the cache you can really quickly transfer things over

[solar hill]

Or does it depend on size?

[solid sage]

yes depend the size u want

u do so much more then ur normal starship

[abstract crow]

The one I'm working on will hopefully have a huge interior for all kinds of activities

[solar hill]

Thanks

[solid sage]

other project will be a base on planet and it will be corvette central city.

[solar hill]

But I'm guessing no matter the size you can dock it in space stations because you make them in space stations

[elder iron]

Correct

[elder iron]

Though without mods you cant place more than 100 modules

[abstract crow]

Yeah, the problem is if you build too big, things get real tricky

[solid sage]

yes only place u can build ur 1st corvette

[solar hill]

Thanks

[elder iron]

You literally cant build corvettes anywhere but stations, lol

[solid sage]

yup only space stations

[abstract crow]

Unless you have a mod that let's you build a corvette construction thing at your base.

Which I think there is one.

[solid sage]

with pc NMS can play with mods do so much more

[abstract crow]

Unless it was only a storage device.

[solid sage]

but build way to big may cause other players game to lag or crash out the game from my experience when on ps4 going into anomaly someone had really big corvette ive crash 10 times

thats why build limit is 100

[abstract crow]

That's why I don't bring my cruisers to the anomaly. That and other ships would block the only way in/out.

[steel sigil]

The cache only shows exosuite inventory for me. Can you transfer corvette parts directly from your ship to the cache?
I'm on ps5 btw

[elder iron]

It does, I usually quick transfer from ship to suit

But just selecting the corvette parts in your suit inventory will transfer them over

[solid sage]

PS5 on nms if u in space station nxt reply example

[solid sage]

I put all my Corvette parts here and have 30 free slots empty u see ive collected alot and stock up so i go build a Corvette using the parts in workshop cache inventory and if ive dismantle my parts of my Corvette to reshape it to make it better goes into my exosuit so i hv to place them bk in my workshop cache inventory.

for ps5 user's i'm myself is on ps5

if need sum parts lmk

[glass surge]

just make sure you have space in your exosuit when building as there is currently a bug that will delete parts that you take off your corvette if your exosuit is full sicne that's where parts go when your working on a corvette

[solid sage]

my exosuit max hv 77 free space left

[elder iron]

Apparently it can go into other ships inventories

Like the other ones in your active list

[glass surge]

hmm interesting i'll have to test that on my creative save since i already reported to HG that it doesn't go into your exosuit with video

[solid sage]

Ok what u think ive adjusted sum more

plus wide front ramp fix flooring so its better now and decor inside of it plus added windows

Well it fit tho ive tested

[abstract crow]

But what about the gun situation?

[solid sage]

thats what im working on now

[abstract crow]

Every inch of that hull needs a gun.

[solid sage]

depends on the type of ship this one will hv 3 turrets or 4

one on each side front gonna be move outside near landing gear

while doing this found better pirate frieghter A class better than my B class pirate frieghter

Gun placement witch u like better 1/2/3

[abstract crow]

So much blue

[marsh night]

This one

[tall trellis]

Aye

Bro

[swift mist]

1 but why is it so blue

[tall trellis]

Aye hello

Talk to me here

[swift mist]

you can @ them ya know

[tall trellis]

hello

@swift mist

[glass surge]

Just tested this by changing my creative save to normal, filling up my exosuit inventory, deleting parts off a corvette, and looks like it does into the corvette inventory now.

Not sure if this was the case 11 days ago when i tested it but hopefully this is how it works going forward

[swift mist]

@ them in this channel lmao

[tall trellis]

@swift mist I would like to see a ship u made

[swift mist]

i put them all in the showcase channel

[swift mist]

#nms-showcase-corvettes message
#nms-showcase-corvettes message
#nms-showcase-corvettes message

[tall trellis]

You like the military

[swift mist]

i just like making a certain style of corvette

[solid sage]

its the space station so my color of ship is silver

[glass surge]

Gun placement for looks is not important, you want to test if it fires correctly and is aligned with your corvette cockpit.

for me high weapon placement even slightly above the corvette cockpit breaks when warping into a system and doing a saving civilian freighters, docking to get the reward and then leaving the freighter via corvette.

I'd worry about placing corvette guns to where it aims best for you

[urban nexus]

may I ask within your royal eagle build, which part did you use the offset and rotation glitches? I'm trying to do something similar with the wings

[solid sage]

Thks ive adjusted Corvette a little tweaks to look better

[abstract crow]

Now color it blue

[solid sage]

its the space station

[pseudo forge]

In lastest expedition I got a blue sentinel ship 🙂

[solid sage]

ship is silver

lol

ya ship is silver part black

[swift mist]

sublight thrusters are the only thing on the wings that are reversed
almost everything on the wings are offset

[abstract crow]

I know it's silver. Paint it blue to match the station.

@surreal copper @quaint badger

[marsh night]

Taking name suggestions for my new patrol corvette. Preferably something menacing and/or intimidating

[swift mist]

piece on the edge is offset into that little wing tip piece behind it to blend better. piece to the left of the thruster is jist the same one on the edge upside down offset up in height

the reversed arcadia wing modules (near where the engines are) help slope the wings towards the back

[abstract crow]

The Intimidator or Menacer

[weak rune]

So for the last month and a half I've been using the first corvette.,only been playing for 2 months or so. Called it Rock Lobster and as much as I like how she looks she drives like a bus and parks like a aircraft carrier. Tried many different designs and almost all have the same problems. Finally came up with a design that I like, turns on a dime and can park on a dime.

[hardy oracle]

Your agility issue isn't in the ship design, it's your tech inventory layout. You seem to be almost completely ignoring adjacency effects. You could be getting three to five times that maneuverability score if you just shuffled your techs around.

This is just an example of adjacency and supercharged slots. ⚠️ For hyperdrive and pulse engine, this example does not apply to sentinel interceptors.

Go online and just look up heavy metal bands, then pick an album and look at the track list. lol

[sand wadi]

Question, I am a console player and cannot figure out how to enter free place in the corvette builder, is this possible to do on console at all?

[abstract crow]

No. Only glitching and offset placing.

[sand wadi]

Unfortunate

I did manage a somewhat cool ship tho

[knotty escarp]

It's definitely possible to make some pretty interesting designs with just the basic vette building options. Step one is "abandon all reason".

[sand wadi]

Lmao

I think it looks good, but the ones I have seen in the nexus are super dope

I did manage to find a exotic bubble cockpit ship

First exotic of my career

[knotty escarp]

Nice!

I built this one with the concept of doing something a bit absurd, and it actually came out better than I was expecting. Everything done in just the standard corvette builder terminal. Just don't climb around on it if you see it. It likes to trap people for some reason.

[sand wadi]

That’s cool

I need more parts for something like that, which means more farming my scrap planet

[knotty escarp]

Some tips if you didn't know: You can use your freighter to scrap farm REALLY quick. Just hover, exit your seat, and scan for scrap. Then fly to it, hover again, and use the cyclotron weapon on the scrap. Even if it's buried several Us down, the explosion radius will hit it and pop it. It took maybe 40 minutes to get everything I needed to build the above design.

Just be aware that when scanning, if you try to mark something and there's an interactable item on your ship that you're looking at, it will interact instead of marking the target.

I'll usually have a totally empty small hab directly behind the cockpit specifically to avoid this issue.

[thin raven]

I am proud to introduce you to Altay-1, a true marvel of Turkish engineering.

[knotty escarp]

LONG

Pretty cool, honestly.

[abstract crow]

Long ships for lyfe

[knotty escarp]

Ship so big you arrive at your destination before you even depart.

[abstract crow]

So big I get fog of war inside the ship.

[knotty escarp]

That does not surprise me at all

[abstract crow]

If I can build the interior right, it's going to be even better. Exocraft and maybe even a starship hangar

[knotty escarp]

Madness, I say! Madness!

[abstract crow]

Indeed.

[bronze lark]

@tall trellis so what are you on about

[abstract crow]

I have a strong suspicion that they're one of those people who enjoy trying to be goofballs for attention.

[swift mist]

i think they were asking how you built your giga star wars ship

[bronze lark]

this one ? 👁️

NMS base builder

not even done yet im like 20+ hours in

[abstract crow]

I'd never have the time or willpower to do that. I'm just hoping the guy who made the mod that replaces freighters with sci-fi ships updates his mod soon so I can have a super star destroyer.

[grizzled flower]

All these cool builds! I wish there was a place where a guy could see them in game. I play in VR and it is something else to actually stand beside a nice ship and walk around inside. looking at it on a screen does it zero justice,

[solid sage]

here's a challenge make Destiny 1 or 2 ships as a corvette and everyone would rate how good it is.?

[grizzled flower]

Is there a mod people are using to go over 100 pieces? Because these monster ships have to be over the limit!

[solid sage]

there is but idk what its called tho even tho its only pc version of nms tho

[grizzled flower]

Well I am on PC so I would LOVE to find out!!

[solid sage]

someone here will tell u i dont know much but all i know there is a mod

[swift mist]

its a third party app

[knotty escarp]

There's an app called NMS Base Builder.

It lets you do basically anything you want, then import it.

[grizzled flower]

Thank you so much I will track it down!!

[knotty escarp]

Just know that it eats time. The guy that built the Super Star Destroyer spent 11 days working on that beast, and it's apparently not done yet.

[grizzled flower]

LOL! Well I ain't going that crazy!!

[swift mist]

other people use blender with an NMS plugin as well

[abstract crow]

That's the app they're talking about.

[tall trellis]

@bronze lark I would like to know how you made it so big, how were you able to build over the border

[abstract crow]

Base builder app

[bronze lark]

indeeeeed

[bronze lark]

Sure DM me

[bronze lark]

NEEEEEED

[bronze lark]

I can give u a tour just DM me im in game now giving tours

I made it 1st person especially for VR players

You are going to freak on VR seeing this big of a ship

Im jealous lol i need to get me a set

[bronze lark]

yea.. and the standalone app is easier to learn

[bronze lark]

CORVETTE PIECES are 100 limit not BASE PARTS

[elder iron]

Thats true... though usually the base parts cant be placed past a certain distance due to scaling issues

[tough plank]

Yeah, Nexus Mods increases the build limit to 9999 parts.

[elder iron]

But the base builder might get around that issue, idk

[bronze lark]

yea we are uncapped

hence why i can build freighter sized ships

Sith Fury is next

that one is only 100m

[elder iron]

I dont think its a cap as much as an error relating to how the game can tell where decorations are on a corvette

[bronze lark]

makes sense ya

[urban nexus]

thanks for the info!

[solid sage]

sum yall have really cool Corvette's designs and made me to get better now thats a challenged thks so gonna do something really stupit really crazy design now.

[terse kestrel]

New minivette based off the original frame. By copying this out of expedition it gives a good starting platform to build off of.

Side profile of the core with no hull attachments

I love that shot tbh

[elder iron]

TO SHOW THE POWER OF FLEXTAPE, I CHOPPED THIS CORVETTE IN HALF

[livid veldt]

Just -- wow -- largest I've seen. Just now in Anomaly.

[terse kestrel]

That's one of the delivered vettes

I've seen it and the star destroyer used by multiple players

[livid veldt]

Oh

Built by someone and someone else pays for it or something?

Just saw this in there, too

[terse kestrel]

I mean they are cool in their own right. But now people just hang out in the anamoly or post them on Reddit like they are the original creators

I've seen the same millennium falcon in 3 different reddit posts by different people. They don't realize it's recognizable

[livid veldt]

I confess I'd probably pay for this one...

[terse kestrel]

When the base glitch still worked....

[livid veldt]

Ah is that dependent on it? Taking base parts and moving them over to corvette? They ended that?

I hear that was extremely dangerous to put in your save.

[terse kestrel]

Yep. Beebelbum removed the video for it

[livid veldt]

And one of my first builds was tiny - the next-pad-over glitch. I hear that's gone too?

[terse kestrel]

Yeah. Both were very unstable

It's rare they take a building glitch away from us. Only when they really break the system

[livid veldt]

I hope partial displacement glitching isn't turned off. (with that air vent and also the rockhopper on the right side thing)

[tough plank]

That's called the King Atlas Raingun.

[terse kestrel]

@livid veldt that's what I mean.

Too many of these builds are not the creator. Just people showing off others work as their own.

I can get it for use. But standing by a downloaded Corvette for anomaly aura is so cringe

[tough plank]

Yeah.

I only show off my corvettes.

[olive tide]

Question: Do the decorative inside the corvette count toward the 100 pieces limit?

[knotty escarp]

No. Just the stuff you install at the corvette terminal

Though you might run into a point with decorations where you have so much that stuff starts disappearing

Random bug that sometimes pops up.

[icy ore]

Is there a build in corvette sharing? I have not been on in a couple weeks.

[glass surge]

No but if you add windows outside of corvette editing mode and then go into it then those windows will be added as part of the count limit; I noticed this on a recent test build.

[primal dagger]

YOO HO HO

[olive tide]

So I can just get wild with the design and not worry on the inside? As long I keep it reasonable?

[spare sedge]

tried making hands on throttle 😅

[bronze lark]

That is the Vindicator!

[soft hound]

Built this with a help of a friend.

[knotty escarp]

Pretty much. I think part of it comes down to what your rig is capable of rendering at once. lol

[olive tide]

So, this is my updated design

[knotty escarp]

Beefy

[olive tide]

I hope I can put stuff inside now

[knotty escarp]

Trying to create a large open space inside?

[olive tide]

multiple rooms are good too

but I meant decoration wise

[knotty escarp]

Oh, yeah. You'll be fine with decorating. The only "decoration" that counts toward part limit is windows. Everything else that can be put in there, you can go nuts

[tough plank]

Does anyone think a maneuverability of 1588 is good for The Focus of Infinity?

[knotty escarp]

Not bad. I think it caps at 3600, regardless of what the number says. You could probably get more out of it by messing around with adjacency of parts/better parts/supercharged slots, but 1588 is decent.

Have you classed it up to S yet?

[tough plank]

Yeah, I did adjacency, and S-Class, and Supercharging.

[knotty escarp]

Lemme check one of mine. I think 1588's pretty good, but I might be wrong. I know I've seen people put out some absurd numbers, even though it caps at 3600.

[olive tide]

Alright, I believe I have created a monster

[knotty escarp]

Okay, yeah. That's pretty good.

1588 is way above what my corvette's doing, though I pushed hyperdrive more than maneuverability.

[olive tide]

I got 1420 on mine, 2211 hyperdrive

but I have to realign modules now

[knotty escarp]

You're definitely doing well on that. I can get just shy of 1450. Probably just the specific tech I have.

This cursed B type engine i have as decoration... It doesn't seem to matter what I do, it always replaces an A class that would make things way better.

[glass surge]

You can probably delete the decoration engines save and then re added them to shift the order

[olive tide]

Not sure about shield and firepower, but hell if I have range

[knotty escarp]

Damage potential's a little odd with vettes.

[olive tide]

compared with my living ship, I'd say I'm good on shield too

[knotty escarp]

It seems low compared to starships, but you have to remember that starships only have the two weapon points.

So any one weapon turret is weaker, but you have many of them on a vette

[olive tide]

I mean, I designed the ship to be a sort of space camper anyway

[knotty escarp]

It's pretty solid for that purpose. Good range for sure

[tough plank]

Your hyperdrive range is insane!

[knotty escarp]

Weird. I tried that like 6 times and it never worked. Now it did.

[knotty escarp]

Not bad. If you have parts you might pop off those top mounted weapons, put in some diffusers on the front of the habs, then reset the weapons. They should still work if you use the right parts

[low saddle]

I've gotta be missing something here....

better.

Yeah, I don't have access to stuff that would blend nice on the second tier... but she's rocking four photons, one in a supercharge slot, and that deadeye cannon

she's mostly built with stuff I had and could buy up front.

[knotty escarp]

I think technically only 3 of any weapon type actually count. Might relocate one photon and delete another, then slap on some other weapon

[low saddle]

she gets a little wide when you look at the backside.

[knotty escarp]

Nice rear on her. lol

[low saddle]

two pyro boosters, two titan sublights and two aeron drives

[low saddle]

I know, only three of any module works

I've got the 'tism so symmetry, man.

[knotty escarp]

I hear that.

[low saddle]

both of her reactors and her four shield generators are crammed in hidden compartments.

the shield generators are in a cool little ring formation all facing into one empty box.

[knotty escarp]

The good news is that now that you have a functional corvette, it's a lot easier to find new parts. You don't have to land and exit your ship to scan anymore. Just get out of the seat, look around, and find salvage scrap. Then you can just pull up over the target and shoot at it until it pops...unless it's buried deep.

The Salvation from Sanity was built with parts I collected in about 45 minutes by doing that.

[low saddle]

it makes finding wrecks easier?

[knotty escarp]

yeah. You can just exit the seat in flight and use your visor to look around while still inside the ship.

The vette will automatically stop and hover until you get back in the seat

[low saddle]

yeah, noticed that when doing the deep space salvage hunts

[knotty escarp]

So if you see a planet that says "Salvageable Scrap" (it's something like that, idk offhand), go down and exit your seat. Look around for this icon. Mark it, fly to it, then just shoot at it with your vette. It'll pop and give you parts.

I becomes even more efficient once you find a cyclotron because the explosion radius is pretty big, so it's way harder to miss

[low saddle]

I don't know how the Deadeye compares to the Cyclotron...

[knotty escarp]

Is that the one that's an expedition reward?

[vernal blaze]

That moment when you're trying to offset part placements for your Corvette and you end up crashing the game...

[knotty escarp]

Ouch

[vernal blaze]

I have made something really cool and I'm trying to make it cooler

I thought maybe I could merge some pieces together to try to create a new shape

Game said "he's too powerful, kill the save"

[knotty escarp]

Too cool, apparently. Lol

[vernal blaze]

Who would have guessed my strongest starship would be this fat, pointy atlas spear thing

[knotty escarp]

I wish I had those parts. I had been away from the game for quite a long time and just happened to return a day and half after that expedition ended. Lol

Expeditions weren't even a thing the last time I played before that.

[vernal blaze]

Ok, so trying to merge two Arcadia blades together will not work

Crashes each time

Damn, the Arcadia blade would be perfect if I could somehow have two of them together centered on a hab

[knotty escarp]

You might need to use an external of some kind to do that. NMS Base Builder might allow it

I've seen some insane stuff made with that app

[vernal blaze]

What's that

[low saddle]

yes, that's the reward cannon

[vernal blaze]

Oh this game is pissing me off. I ain't even tryna glitch build and the shits crashing

Annoying af on Xbox because each time it launches I have to force launch another game then do a quick resume to make the damn thing actually load or I get an endless red ring

[low saddle]

@knotty escarp mind if I DM you?

[knotty escarp]

Go ahead

[knotty escarp]

Ah the joys of PC-to Console ports.

[vernal blaze]

Didn't do that till the Corvette update

Phuck it. Guess I ain't modifying this shit

Non stop crashing

Literally all I'm trying to do is offset a walkway with the ducting block

Then it crashes

[knotty escarp]

Jeez

[vernal blaze]

Trying to place the aeron shield above my thrusters...that's all

Need to offset a walkway to do that

[manic tangle]

ah hey did you still have those atlas parts you could toss me? lol

sorry its days later xd

[vernal blaze]

Lmao lemme go check. I should still have em

Yah I gotchu

How many u want

[manic tangle]

do i need more than one to be able to place them more than once?

[vernal blaze]

Yes

One use per piece

[manic tangle]

are you able to give me a blue print so i can make my own or nah? lol

[vernal blaze]

Unfortunately not. The blueprint can't be traded

But I mean, I can make a lot

[manic tangle]

well how many can you reasonably make lol

[vernal blaze]

How many u want? Lol

[manic tangle]

idk how many ill really need overall but like uh, 50 of each just to be safe?

[vernal blaze]

I can do that

U will need 9 slots

[manic tangle]

i got space

The Breach expedition reruns at the end of the year at that point you can do it to get the blueprints for the Aeron parts; i would suggest preparing for it by watching old guides on it since it's the only way to get aeron blueprints unlocked

[manic tangle]

forgot about that

still, be nice to have part stock for now so i can experment

[vernal blaze]

Expedition was a pain in the ass, but I can't deny those sweet sweet parts, lol

[knotty escarp]

Me too. Guess I need to keep a corvette slot open

[manic tangle]

is there a corvette limit?

i have more than 3 on another save where i mess with builds to see what looks good

[knotty escarp]

6 per save

and you can't archive them

[manic tangle]

ah thought it was 3

[knotty escarp]

Somebody smarter than me said six earlier today. Of course it would take 3 hours to go back and find the post. lol

[manic tangle]

you joinin me or am i joinin you?

[vernal blaze]

Either works. I'm currently crafting the parts

[manic tangle]

ah okay

on pc at least you can craft more than one thing at a time

a and d to select how many

[vernal blaze]

i dont see your game

unless you have to add me first

IF there is it's not posted here; I would suggest checking out if people post that in #nms-lfg-or-trades where you can find people looking for that or i'd suggest looking up Corvette meetup videos on youtube and see if there is a dedicated discord for that

[knotty escarp]

I'd suggest looking around on youtube. Search stuff like NMS Meetups. There's one called Coffee and Corvettes. You can sign up in the comments to get the location of the event.

I beleive they meet every Saturday

It might be Corvettes and Coffee. I don't remember. One of those two. lol
