[grizzled stream]

Smt like this?

Or this?

I do not think i have better moduels, i only have basic ones sadly

[rotund crane]

Ehh it’s kinda up to you on 1 or 2. I’d lean 1 because of the empty area on the top left of the triangles you placed. I have those in my builds and idk how to fill them out better yet

[grizzled stream]

Ye i think i agree

[rotund crane]

I’ve got a bunch of extra parts, I’m gonna get more tomorrow. I could give you some

I just got the areon parts today and made my first ship that had those new parts available and it changed the game a lil

[grizzled stream]

Like what parts? Are they smooth, squarey? I m asking cuz maybe i get an idea

[rotund crane]

Every part 😂

[muted belfry]

are these stats crazy?

[rotund crane]

I’ll get enough to give you some of all of em but if you want specific I can give you whatever

Sheild strength is good 👍🏼

[muted belfry]

how about range and manoeuvrability?

[rotund crane]

Best I’ve gotten

[grizzled stream]

Yep

[muted belfry]

holy

[rotund crane]

Oh I lie

[grizzled stream]

Loo

[muted belfry]

how did you even get that

[grizzled stream]

Lol*

[rotund crane]

4,528 maneuverability *

x class upgrades and the 3 you can install plus the 3 from the corvette with the 3 X-Class in supercharged slots with adjacency bonus

[muted belfry]

oh that makes sense now

[rotund crane]

Get a bunch of X Class pulse engine modules and install until you see crazy boosts like 100% pulse boost and +20% maneuverability

[muted belfry]

will do

thank you

[rotund crane]

Ofc ❤️

[lament abyss]

@grizzled stream

No stickers in this channel please

[grizzled stream]

These stats good?

[limpid jackal]

Do you really feel a difference at 4k ?

[limpid jackal]

I guess it's ur first corvette, i'd try to get at least around 1500 maneuverability for it to feel smooth

[grizzled stream]

Well i like it, i do not find anything bad about how it feels, feels smooth enough for me

Plus either way i mostly use my living ship, i use my corvette when wanting to get to the galacy core, and when doing nexus missions

[limpid jackal]

fair enough, but u can get waaay more even in A class

[grizzled stream]

Oh, nice, what could i do to get better stats for my corvette? Get better moduels? Nahhhh im too lazy

[grizzled stream]

And yes its my first corvette

[limpid jackal]

Modules placement

I don't see the point on asking about stats than being defensive once an answer is given tho 🤔

[green trail]

I'm using this as daily driver and it feels great!. Fast, great manoeuvaribility . But really the point is in this game what is considered "good". I think almost everything works, and what you personally feel good that one is good. 😉

[limpid jackal]

That's what I have atm

On a new corvette that I made, tbh idk if 3.6k is too much, my regular ships are around 2k and it feels already smooth

[calm shoal]

um, anyone know how i can fix my pov in my gigantic corvette?

[lunar eagle]

switch back to third person?

x quick menu

[calm shoal]

its already in third person

[marble quiver]

you’re uo against the wall

so it forces the camera forward.

[calm shoal]

oh, i just reloaded and it fixes

[green trail]

Really nice. Yeah my experience is the same..above 3.6k ot higher is just too much.

[calm shoal]

nvm it's bugged again still

[limpid jackal]

What are ur corvette stats ? I saw that apparently too much maneuverability may make it glitch

[limpid jackal]

Yea, I don't see the diff, but to be fair i ain't using it for combat soo... guess i'll keep it this way

[lament pulsar]

Hello, who can help me build a corvette?

[grizzled stream]

As in recommend you what to build?

I do not think someone can build a corvette for someone else

[rotund crane]

There isn’t really a difference from 3000-4500. The only difference is you are like 20-30u faster on planet or in space pulse driving

[calm shoal]

i just fixed it with a mod, its extremely low maneuver

[rotund crane]

My ship goes ~610 u on planet

[verbal forum]

Im sure this has been asked a lot but is there a way to remove "useless" tech from the tech slots from my corvette?

(without destroying my whole corvette)

[shadow dome]

what do you define as "useless"?

[verbal forum]

walkaways

for example

[daring brook]

I'm new to the game I'm wondering what is the difference between a starship and a Corvette

[verbal forum]

Corvettes are much more customizable, you can build things inside like storage, refiners and so on! But aside from that they are "the same" both count towards starship slots

[daring brook]

Oh thx

[verbal forum]

If you're new just stick with the starships for a while and waste your time on corvettes later!

[daring brook]

Alr

[exotic cape]

its so frustrating trying to place parts inside a corvette, on pc.

[glass forum]

Nah it’s just annoying in general😭

[exotic cape]

true. nothing layers correctly and how do i rotate a poster, or wall light?! ive never figured out an easy way

[glass forum]

I’m on console and for me the rotation always moves a click more than how I want it

[exotic cape]

yea on pc, the mouse and mouse wheel both rotate pieces, and never the same direction

thats the stuff they ought to update, geez

[jaunty mural]

yeah why do they rotate like that in the interior but not on the exterior.

[glass surge]

change you mouse sensitivity settings in game and see if that helps

[smoky mauve]

me and a friend of mine saw a builder inside the anomaly with a corvette that had ships inside. how is that possible?

[glass surge]

It's either modded or using a base glitch; you can also make a hollow space in a corvette instead of using hab modules and can put in bigger things etc in that as well.

The tricky part is that it most likely the ship doesn't move with the corvette when it takes off

[smoky mauve]

u mean the ships inside?

so they are just decoration

still hella cool

[last steeple]

any tips?

[mystic olive]

How do people get the storage containers smaller? The default ones take up so much room

[shadow dome]

they can't be scaled down normally. People use glitches or mods for that

[mystic olive]

Ah, thank you. Unfortunately I can't use mods since I use Geforce Now but maybe there is a glitch. I guess it isn't a huge deal but they look so much better small too.

[shadow dome]

hope ya figure out something that works for you!

[mystic olive]

Thank you so much!

I just made my first corvette a few days ago and I still have a lot to learn but it is pretty neat

[last steeple]

how do i get more slots on my corvette?

[shadow dome]

I could be wrong, but I believe it's the same way as normal starships.

[last steeple]

how do you do that idk how

[shadow dome]

you go to the starship outfitting terminal in the back left of a space station, and either buy slots, or apply storage augmentations

[last steeple]

ok thanks

[shadow dome]

sure thing!

[stable yoke]

If your building your first Corvette YouTube a video on how to get supercharged slots were you want them before you get to far into it rerolling for perfect slots is worth it

[last steeple]

i already have a supercharged slot

i have my engine in it for 40% manouverability

[stable yoke]

You get 4 and if you can get them together it's even better adjacency bonuses

[last steeple]

four in total?

[stable yoke]

Yea

[last steeple]

because ive unlocked all my slots except for 6

when i pay the 32 million to expand storage will i unlock all 6?

[stable yoke]

Is it s class

[last steeple]

its b class

[stable yoke]

I'll dm you a video

[short aurora]

Hey guys, im new to this Game and i saw the aero blades, how do i get them for my corvet

[polar crow]

does anyone have extra vette parts?

[stable yoke]

#nms-lfg-or-trades

[stable yoke]

#nms-lfg-or-trades

[short aurora]

Trading will be Hard im on the ps5 we dont have a Chat in nms

[hollow island]

https://youtu.be/l2pE6JJo-eQ?si=50z1yEtSbOqjetKZ
Solution to my previous problem, very helpful

[stable yoke]

Discord has chats and if you link discord to you ps you can chat that way as well

[stable yoke]

You have to unlock them from the expedition or have someone give or trade them to you

I see a guy or two give them away daily in #nms-lfg-or-trades

[rapid drift]

Do the other reactors do anything or are they purely cosmetic? and how many reactors should I usually have for the best performance?

[glass surge]

you can put a max of 12 reactors or 3 of each type ; Medusa = Maneuverability, Zenith = Warp range / efficiency, Ceto = Shield buffing, and Azimuth = Launch recharge / efficiency.

You can mix and match for what you want also some other tech like shield tech upgrades can work with the ceto or you can not use that one so you have more tech slots available for other things.

It's all about balancing what you want.

[fallow lava]

Here's my first corvette

[river roost]

Top is a bit empty but that looks cool man

Unless your going for sleek

[fallow lava]

Yeah I only use 2 laser guns I think its enough tbh

You think I should add more weapons to it ?

[river roost]

Meant decoration wise lol

[fallow lava]

Ohhhh well its all in the inside

[river roost]

For reference I built this and decorated the top of it quite a lot

[fallow lava]

Damn bro this looks insane

[river roost]

It’s a c class tbh

[fallow lava]

Still looks dope to me

You think I should add an other weapon to my ship ?

I saw rocket launcher and everything

[river roost]

I mean you can, but it’s really all about preference

[fallow lava]

I think ill add some weapons on the top

[ebon wraith]

That's 🔥 if you don't mind me asking what gamemode was it built in

[shadow dome]

those are sick!

[bleak aurora]

Idk how y'all find the parts you want I'm between flat fuck charley or duck head

[nova bobcat]

look for planets with salvagable scrap and farm that to get corvette modules

or get rich and buy all them

[stark crane]

dear builders who use tools like blender or the base builder. do storage units, the large cubes, when put into a corvette, register as storage for the refiners? or no because they arent corvette specific storage units?

[bleak aurora]

I bought multiples of the basics but all the fancy ones are out there in the galaxy

[nova bobcat]

best way to go for the others is salvagable scrap

[fickle tapir]

I wonder if its possible

To make the Egg Carrier

[glass surge]

I don't use blender but if you don't get a response here you can ask in #nms-modding as well

[stark crane]

noted thanks

[glass surge]

also the standard corvette storage units tie to your base ones and not refiners

[stark crane]

putting a storage wall in a corvette with a refiner unit wall lets the refiner access the storage

[glass surge]

you can still access it yes

[stark crane]

yes? I legit do it all the time.

and im not using any mods for that kinda thing

[glass surge]

yeah that's pretty much the normal behavior

[sweet bluff]

Saucer build

[lucid ravine]

Does anyone has great usage of ambassador cockpit? It looks great by itself, but The damn thing is so off-putting and hard to combine with other parts

[stable yoke]

You can also turn crafting to free the unlocks the parts except the areon parts if that's a route you want to take

[bronze light]

whaa?

[thorn ridge]

holy shit

[limpid jackal]

Nice ! Possible to see the back ? I made a millenium falcon looking ship, but I don't know how I feel about the back 😂

[bleak aurora]

Creative mode is just relaxed just with unlimited parts?

[slow quarry]

For the purposes of getting a corvette yes

For any other starship, the fabricator still need you to s track down and supply the parts, but getting them would cost nothing

[stable yoke]

Creative is free crafting and purchases

[stable yoke]

I dmed you

[calm shoal]

WIP corvette im making, any advice/tips on making some areas look less bland?

[raven rover]

Youre using too many similar parts

Use different parts intermittently

Like on the front slope

You couldve just used an cowling for that

Use different parts

the back habs too

Other than that, great build man!

I like the shape

[nimble stirrup]

It looks amazing

[ebon wraith]

I used it for a surface survey ship since the cockpit dips down and has a great view

[civic thunder]

if you dont want to worry about habs snapping at different angles, snap a part with object ID B_DOOR0 to their entry points they will open up.

[river roost]

I use it

[calm shoal]

Huh?

[grizzled stream]

Ya'll like my corvette? Bottom right image is blurry since i accidently moved while trying to take the picture

[nimble stirrup]

very boxy, but I like it

[grizzled stream]

Thanks, i dont really have models i could use to make it less boxy, unless i grind for a few days for some avanced moduels

[nimble stirrup]

I typically turn on creative for Corvette building

[grizzled stream]

Its name is very short: GALAXY DESTROYER G-ALPHA M-KAPPA

[nimble stirrup]

very nice

[grizzled stream]

I only play survival, aka regular, but i have keep inventory on death

[stable yoke]

Yea I do the same since my first one

[nimble stirrup]

I see I see

[grizzled stream]

Cuz i once died on a oceanic planet and kinda lost my DECKED out inventory, very sad time

[nimble stirrup]

rip. Wasn't able to go back and find your grave?

[grizzled stream]

Yep, 700u underwater, had to go to get soome upg so..but i did get back on track, i think im even more decked out now

[nimble stirrup]

[grizzled stream]

Is there anywhere to check my exact lvl in this server? I know im probably lvl2 or 3

[nimble stirrup]

Yeah, run !xp in #bot-spam

[grizzled stream]

My bad, lvl 2, 27 out of 54 xp

Thankd

Thanks*

[nimble stirrup]

sure thing!

[grizzled stream]

Btw i chose that name cuz...idk irony or smt..and added "G-ALPHA" for the fact its still my first corvette and M-KAPPA since its the 7th model the corvette got, the g-alpha and m-kappa were mostly to make it sound at least a little profesional

The first name it had (auto generated) was Swift Departure XQ2

And to specify, the G stands for 'generation' and M for 'model'

[nimble stirrup]

I see

I like it

[grizzled stream]

Thanks, its also an A class, and like...98% empty corridor

[nimble stirrup]

should add some decoration to it!

[grizzled stream]

I dont know what to, i am trying, will probably finish the interior in at least 2 months

I see your a indie dev, cool

[nimble stirrup]

yep yep

[lucid ravine]

You can import from blender to NMS??

[grizzled stream]

These 2 where the ones before the current model

[nimble stirrup]

look like ships from a 3d space invaders

[grizzled stream]

Lol, the one from the left was the 5th model, and the one ftom the left was the 7th model

[nimble stirrup]

Interesting

[grizzled stream]

This is model 6

[nimble stirrup]

reminds me of a hot rod

nyoom

[grizzled stream]

Lol

[grizzled stream]

My corvettes are the most basic shi ever😭🙏

[nimble stirrup]

no worries! We all start somewhere

[grizzled stream]

At least they are not a box

[nimble stirrup]

true

[grizzled stream]

Plus they arent bad for basic model using corvettes

[nimble stirrup]

yeah

[grizzled stream]

Most basic model using corvettes are basic bricks

What was your first corvette's first name?

Autogenerated and manually named ones

[primal mural]

Can I get access to the community creator tab

[nimble stirrup]

Which one? #content-creator-corner or #1418605454300549120 ?

Read pinned post/messages in both

[primal mural]

If there are rules send me them and I’ll do my best to follow them nms community

[grizzled stream]

Both

Nice

[primal mural]

I’m trying to build my nms community and need promotions and now im here so I think it would be best for me to be in the no man sky community as the followers of war with y’all’s permission of course

[plucky tartan]

I'm doing the same bud

Here to grow my community

[fallow lava]

Creative !!

[lunar eagle]

Working on a new Corvette. Inspired by the Mercury Star Runner from Star Citizen, though I did not want it asymmetrical. Probably gonan restart it on a 1/4 grid for a better center ridgeline.

[lunar eagle]

Any ideas on how to extend VEsper/Hardframe parts straight back for the length of the ship?

I like how they look, but I wish there was a flat/straight piece so I could create smooth lines down the length of the ship

instead of humps liek this

I saw a youtube short that kind of did what I want, which is how I figured out I could get a narrow center on a 1/4 grid, but I don;t know how he gets the long center

[calm shoal]

It's not blender, it's a dedicated nms base building app

[grizzled stream]

Btw for the sake of not having to send every single image, here is a 'movie' i made in my samsung gallery, dont judge i swear ts the best editing i can make..and jts automatic🙏😭

[thorn ridge]

huhh

[lunar eagle]

this ship

though I wish I could get my corvette to look a brighter white

[thorn ridge]

mods

[gray stratus]

i wish making something like this was possible (just the ship part) i tried but couldnt...

[calm quartz]

it is possible

[shrewd oriole]

Could make it. Just got to mess around with the parts and how you use those parts. Bet someone’s got that as a ship

[calm quartz]

it looks like you're using the "worn" finish in the corvette color settings, try switching to "gloss finish"

[lunar eagle]

Everything is gloss or reverse gloss

black and white palette

[calm quartz]

are we fr

it looks kinda grey

[proper shadow]

I've changed it a bit since these photos but cosmetically this is my favorite corvette that I've been flying for a while.

[lunar eagle]

Yeah, the only options are gloss, reverse, rusted, or metallic. I use gloss exclusively, or reverse if I want black instead of white.

which is why I am annoyed that it so not white, and is more liek 40-50% gray\

[shrewd oriole]

Anyone got any suggestions that I should or could add to this too make it look better

[calm quartz]

The beast

[shut oyster]

how on earth does that even fly

[calm quartz]

space shib

[shut oyster]

😭

[calm quartz]

the tricky part was making an accessway

you have to climb in from the bottom

[fallow lava]

Damn that's a huge one

[stark crane]

agony.

[river roost]

Peter griffin pose time

One wrong step

I swear these ships are not osha compliant

[fluid vigil]

Hey folks, how's everyone?

[nimble stirrup]

hi

[fluid vigil]

It's been 36 hours of looking for specific parts for my corvette build and I only found two of them.

This is going to be awhile.

[short aurora]

Hi

[dusk citrus]

What up

[short aurora]

Finishing my corvette

[nova bobcat]

actually like really sick

[dusk citrus]

I have design but it needs an legacy part 😭

Unless you can think of an alternative for wings of aeron

[fluid vigil]

What's up folks.

[dusk citrus]

Sup

[fluid vigil]

I am trying to build the Rocinante. I watched a YouTube video on it and got the parts list. The parts are hard to find.

[dusk citrus]

Yeah I’m in a similar boat

[hollow fossil]

What are you making the corvette with?

Anyone know if making a corvette like this is even possible?

[short aurora]

Yeah, Safe

[hollow fossil]

How tho?

[fluid vigil]

Do all Space Stations sell all the same Corvette parts?

[robust jolt]

first ever corvette, any recommendations to improve design?

im planning on adding 2 windows on the front

so it doesnt look so flat

[elder iron]

I forgot if any rims are available as basic modules

[robust jolt]

last item its just a decorative exhaust

if i could make it longer it wouldnt look so

blocky

but id need to

get more cash

can i edit a corvette after its built?

or once its like finished and set to use its set like that forever

[elder iron]

Yes

[robust jolt]

alr bet then

ill just fly inside this beautiful block of cheese meanwhile

[elder iron]

When making a design like a barge for open-space viewing, it started like this

Final design is this

[robust jolt]

that seems so nice

[elder iron]

Same exact ship, technically

[elder iron]

Heard that before, lol

[robust jolt]

was this ur first ever corvette

?

[elder iron]

My first ever was gradually built up over the expedition to this

[robust jolt]

oh wow i can see that

every first corvette is cursed to be built blocky

[elder iron]

But what I started with, was block with engines, lol

Yeah, but i worked with it

[robust jolt]

even so theres plenty of blocks i dont have

whats the best way to get parts for corvettes

crashed corvettes??

[elder iron]

Yeah, I'll admit, the expedition gave more parts as milestone rewards

[robust jolt]

ah that explains

[elder iron]

Planets with salvageable scrap

[robust jolt]

i see

i think theres one in my home system

its kinda hard to know what is what when my game is on spanish

[elder iron]

Use your visor to find salvageable scrap, mark it, and fly your corvette over

[robust jolt]

i get confused a lil bit

[elder iron]

It should look like a gold wifi icon

[robust jolt]

before i take off i must add 2 windows to the front

[robust jolt]

isnt that for uhh

the resource u use to investigate tech

?

[elder iron]

Yes, I believe windows are a very important aspect in corvette design

That one is blue

[robust jolt]

oh i see bet

alr ty

ima focus on getting money since i went from 18M to 300k lmao

and that too

[elder iron]

No problem, and experimentation is the fun part with corvettes

[elder iron]

Once you have a decent stock of parts, buying more wont be an issue, as you can trade parts you dont want for others

[robust jolt]

yeah ive seen that

[elder iron]

Except for basic modules, so if you have a bunch of those, sell them

[robust jolt]

tho the little parts ive gotten that were not bought

only filled like 5%

[elder iron]

Yeah, tends to be that

The most valuable parts in trade are reactors

[robust jolt]

i see

[elder iron]

Also you can increase the number of parts you will get in a trade

So if you have a high likelihood, id back out to increase the amount

And biggest tip for trading, always try the trade when the chance is low

A chance is a chance, even a small one

[robust jolt]

i se

see

ty

[river roost]

I got it at 5% once

[stable escarp]

If you try 100 times at 1% chance, by spamming the button, will you eventually be successful? Or do you actually need to remove an ingredient and re-add it?

[elder iron]

The same trade will have the same outcome, in my experience

[river roost]

You have to modify the trade for it to be a different outcome

[stable escarp]

Thanks

[idle heath]

hello, any good corvette builders here that can help me build a ship?
I tried looking online for tutorials, I was trying to build a specific design; but nothing works.

[ebon wraith]

I was wondering that for a while thanks

[bleak aurora]

I can't flip this the other way, can I?

[river roost]

No

[bleak aurora]

so if I want something perfectly spherical I gotta do another technique?

[wind cairn]

guys

what makes this not work

its just consmetics in the first place no ?

[river roost]

It’s just there for looks

Yea or nah?

[bleak aurora]

If I can't build a massive sphere, instead how do we build this?

[river roost]

Y’all notice the fish?

[bleak aurora]

this is the goal but making a ball might be impossible

unless I really fenagle it

[cloud hill]

looks like glitch building can do that

oh wait this is corvette thing. I have no bloody idea. i am outdated.

[fluid vigil]

Hehehe,I wonder if you could build Unicron as a corvette.

[bleak aurora]

I've seen people build death stars as corvettes but I don't plan to crash anyone's game

[glass surge]

animation limit for Rockhoppers or something animation wise breaks; me and others have filed multiple bug reports on it.

Since you're on PC you can look in the #nms-modding channel and ask how to mod the game since that modding NMS will at least let you by pass the animation / engine trail limit.

Rockhoppers are just cosmetic yes

[robust jolt]

1st upgrade

[idle heath]

no one?

[lethal swan]

Chat what type of corvette do I make to do nexus missions

[slow quarry]

Any would do as long as you can fit a mission board on it

[lethal swan]

Scout Turtle

[lethal swan]

Well I'm looking for ideasss

Battery Fox

Galaxy One

I'mma make a living corv rn

[slow quarry]

I can't offer any, my corvette is a basic pancake because I CBA to do anymore than that 😛😛

[lethal swan]

Lol my turtle is the most basic thing I did and then I keep thursting for more

[fluid vigil]

What is the best way to get parts that you need?

[slow quarry]

Farm salvageable scrap and trade in the parts you don't need for the parts that you do

[proper shadow]

I've read on reddit that you can't have any wing piece attached along with the rock hopper pieces. They have to be only wings, which leads to issues because most of the other wings are used to shape the frame of the corvette.

It's a bug that many have reported but has yet to be fixed. I just don't use them for my own peace of mind.

[calm shoal]

The programm orrr

[fluid vigil]

So I am a Idiot. Yes with a capital I. I forgot that you could trade your extra corvette parts for the advanced parts.
Yes I have all of my parts for my Rocinante build now, lol.

[unique spear]

Guys, my corvette suddenly started to shoot from some random space and not where I aim it to. This was not the case like yesterday. I’m on ps5

[blazing hinge]

Figured out how to make a small sleak Corvette

[rare sparrow]

Thats sick nice build

I tried making a small corvette and it came out ugly so i just scrapped it

[blazing hinge]

Took a bit to get it right but finally got it

[rare sparrow]

Yeah congratulations with enough trying you can get the hand of things

[blazing hinge]

It was huge. Had to make it smaller since I'm on switch 2. Kept getting booted from the game cause I had too much ship lol

[rare sparrow]

Oh thats even being more impressive doing it on switch 2 lol

[blazing hinge]

Is there that much of a difference from PC to console on building?

I know PC can handle way more parts

[rare sparrow]

yeah on pc its so easy to build on console its not that bad either

[tepid arrow]

People spend money on people making Corvettes?

[hoary agate]

No and yes. There is a delivery bot that someone made and it has some features paywalled. One of the features is corvette delivery with design made by some pepole from community. Pc players can use blender to build corvette there and import it back to the game. U can also learn and use glitch building techniques if u are patient enough.

[wind cairn]

Thank you very much ! I did find the solution, its because the limit i 4 wings for them to be animated idk and as u said its a bug, so i just removed the other wings and its good rn. Yesterday i just discovered people can place shapes how ever they want and i still dont know how they do it

[mossy fox]

Is there a piece that needs to be between the Hab portion, and the cockpit of the Corvette? There is like a weird gap between the two parts

My Corvette is ugly as sin, but that gap is a bit immersion breaking

[bleak aurora]

You can use blender to build a ship???

[lone garnet]

I need a nms corvette coach

[lunar eagle]

Youtube. I learned off a few tutorials, and playing around a bit. Just built this yesterday using the 1/4 step offset glitch. Inspired by the Mercury Star Runner from Star Citizen.

Still tweaking it a bit. I'd rather have different thrusters than the Ambassador Heavies, but they do fill the space well and have good stats.

[lone garnet]

Ill have a gander i wanna go for the milano from gotg but like my own vibe so its not identical

[lunar eagle]

There are a couple tutorials on YT on how to make one (basic and advanced), which are not bad. But then there is a non-tutorial flyby video that is much nicer IMHO.

This is probably the best build I have seen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GykkaWTtOdg

[lone garnet]

Yeah i seen that one shit looks crazy

[lunar eagle]

I tried replicating parts of it, but it uses a LOT of off-angle parts and those are a major pain to place

Doing it off one axis is not too bad, but changing the orientation in multiple axes and gettign it to line up is very difficult without switching to a Blender build

I am trying to do 100% in-game builds

I honestly cannot stand these builds that are just a copy of something that use a billion flat panels in various sizes used like polygons to make a shape.

Though I do like how white those panels are. I wish the black and white color palette on the Corvette palette was actually Black and White.

[bleak aurora]

The solar sail where do you find that? And how do you even orient it like this?

The cables look like they're for the base builds?

[raven rover]

its the texture thats the problem for me

Theyre too clean most of the time

[raven rover]

Anomaly for the sails

I blender build but i try to use mostly vette parts

Just for the texture 😂

and base parts loads like ass too

[lunar eagle]

Yeah, I want that clean white look for parts of my ship, but not the entire thing. A mix of the normal parts and those panels would be good, but people seem to rarely choose that.

[raven rover]

Its almost always on the extreme ends

[lunar eagle]

Instead we get these pure white "low poly" Millenium Falcon or Star Destroyer knockoffs

[lunar eagle]

TBH I am a little surprised to see so few Star Trek-style ships. We have a big saucer part, the ability to make rings with glitch building, and a lot of nacelle-style big engines.

[raven rover]

Ive seen a TON of star trek style ships

The big saucer part is too small for most builds

People just use the ring glitch method most of the time

You could browse the #nms-showcase-corvettes and filter the star trek keywords

Youd see a bunch of em

[lunar eagle]

I rarely visit that channel. Mostly this one, the generic nms channel, and the questions channel

unless I need to look for something specific in base building or something

Lowkey want a salvage theme sail ship

[golden bridge]

Dynamite Croc: The Disco Bomb

[fluid vigil]

That is awesome, Jojo.

[golden bridge]

Thank you appreciate it

[crude ravine]

To think this is how i manage to replicate the Thrusters uses by Crusader Ships in Star Citizen in NMS

i am so gonna do this

[velvet ruin]

If i saw this over my settlement id just surrender 🙏

[fluid vigil]

So I finished with the physical build of my Rocinante, except for a custom paint job and the interior and saved it. I went to enter it and the game froze and kicked me with a error report. I tried to re log in and now is trying to "validate" my files for some reason.

So it finally reloaded my game but I cannot enter my corvette, I just walk through it.

[nimble stirrup]

strange

[fluid vigil]

I keep walking through my gang plank.

[nimble stirrup]

try asking around about it in #nms-questions

[fluid vigil]

Oh, I see what I did. I didn't finalize it.

[nimble stirrup]

ah that would do it, I imagine

glad you were able to fix it!

[fluid vigil]

Relieved, lol.

[golden bridge]

Dont join me and dance with me

[fluid vigil]

Do all corvettes start out as a Class C?

[sage wolf]

Yes

[fluid vigil]

Thanks De.
I have maxed out my Sentinel ship for weapons the best I can and now want to strip them and put them on my Corvette.

[bleak aurora]

Is this possible as a corvette?

[ebon wraith]

You might have a hard time with the middle section since you need an entrance with a hall way leading to the the cockpit speaking of which I don't think there is a cockpit like that in the game

Tldr you probably could get the general shape if your creative and make some compromises

[ebon wraith]

I'd create a creative save and mess around with the editor before collecting the parts

[bleak aurora]

That's what I've been doing so far

[raven rover]

yes

shape seems simple enough

[bleak aurora]

It's a retired lego set so might as well build it in nomanski lol

[hoary agate]

Old lego sets are best

[glass surge]

Sadly there is no LEGO color for Corvette's; so no bricks to step on when building

[hoary agate]

Black and yellow will do imo

[wind cairn]

how many ships i am allowed to have ? including the corvettes ? i have 2 corvettes and i want to add a 3rd

[lunar eagle]

12, with another 18 archived in your Freighter, IIRC

[rapid drift]

Any tips to make this look cleaner? This is my first Corvette Project Icarus, built for 2 players, to reach the center of the galaxy. Built completely in survival.

Interior

[tropic meteor]

Has anyone made the ship serenity from firefly

[hollow island]

Do blender builds consistently crash people's game or is it just because they are giant corvettes?

[nimble stirrup]

just because it's made in blender does not crash the game alone. It's the part count that can crash peoples' games

[hollow island]

Thought so

Might try to reduce the amount of parts on my giant corvettes

[dusk citrus]

How many parts you got?

[tropic meteor]

Is there a wy to get more than 100 slots

[smoky mortar]

Has anyone made a nasa space shuttle

[nimble stirrup]

that would be so sick

[smoky mortar]

Right

[nimble stirrup]

[winged chasm]

Change the color maybe?

[rapid drift]

Changed it to full dark red and that definitely helped thank you

[robust jolt]

duality of nms corvette owners

[glass surge]

Corvettes get 60 tech slots and 120 cargo slots at S Class but even after paying 85K nanites to get to S-Class you need to either pay or use the blue storage expansion modules to get the extra slots

[tropic meteor]

Okay, thankyou

The blue thing is the one that has 3 prongs

Rught

[glass surge]

yes correct

[tropic meteor]

Thankyou, a member of my group gave some to me but i did not know how to use

[glass surge]

those you use at the terminal at the back of a space station on the left

[tropic meteor]

Oh, okay

Thx

[deft parcel]

Now you can get carbon and not just condensed carbon.

Anything else I can add?

[bleak aurora]

I need a way to give this some yellow and red pizzazz

[blazing hinge]

I need to get my hands on some Aeron parts

[lunar eagle]

I went and ran the expedition offline to unlock them, and I find myself never using them. If I want a black and red Corvette, sure. But most of the parts have large areas of fixed color, and are very spikey-bladey so they don't fit with the other parts well IMHO.

[bleak aurora]

ayy

[blazing hinge]

I have a plan for them, but what do you mean go offline and get them. Will them be available online after and can you do this on switch 2

[lunar eagle]

https://cwmonkey.github.io/nms-expeditions/
It says you can do it on the Switch, IDK if Switch 2 is doable or not

[blazing hinge]

Do you mind if I DM you about this topic?

[lunar eagle]

And yeah, the way it works is you replace a file with one that says the expedition is active. Preventing NMS from going online prevents it from updating while you do it. Then once you are done you just complete the expedition and let the game back online

go ahead

[blazing hinge]

Oh wait you answered my question lol

[lyric oyster]

I wouldnt think so. Its modifying a file which is against the user agreement

[blazing hinge]

I am unable to access the file on switch none of mine are modded

[lunar eagle]

and yes, it unlocks the parts across all your saves when you come back, just like doing the expedition normally

I play on Steam so I got it easy. I used it to play expeditions 19 and 20 for the parts myself

[blazing hinge]

No expeditions for switch yet

[lunar eagle]

None at all? Not even the recent recycling one?

You have a lower parts limit for corvettes too, don;t you?

[blazing hinge]

When did that happen lol

[lunar eagle]

About a month or so ago? Maybe 2 at this point?

[blazing hinge]

I can put 100 parts on

[lunar eagle]

the update before the pokemon one

[lunar eagle]

Oh, I thought it was limited to 40 on Switch.

[lyric oyster]

Corvettes can have 100 parts on switch 2

50 on OG switch iirc

[blazing hinge]

I've just been waiting for this stuff and haven't seen anything

[lunar eagle]

Nice. You don;t see many people using those scaffolding pieces

[lunar eagle]

idk, the only way might be to get someone to give you the parts. Normally they are an unlock of a blueprint and are crafted when you need them

[blazing hinge]

See

[lunar eagle]

Yeah the most recent one ended a while ago

when you said "no expeditions on switch", I thought you meant they were not implemented as a feature there 😛

but then duh, the generator I linked has instructions for Switch OG, so that was dumb of me

[blazing hinge]

Oh no there are lots I see all the ones y'all talk about

[bleak aurora]

for this it worked out wonders

[lunar eagle]

Some people don't care.

Shabbat Shalom

[calm shoal]

oh yeah does anyone recommend what paint texture and colour i should use?

[warm swift]

is that an app?

[calm shoal]

yeah

[warm swift]

so you can design a corvette build in there? what is the app name?

[calm shoal]

NMS Base Building App by djmonkey

and yes, corvettes and already existing bases you have

though to get them ingame you need to do some file editting with another program

[warm swift]

maybe i'll surrender 😆 im to old for editing stuff in files

[calm shoal]

honestly it's not difficult lol, the nms base programm even gives you the correct files to replace them with a copy and paste

[somber pilot]

i always wondered if that was fake or not lol

i saw it on a tiktok someone replied to another person but it looked fake 😭

[somber pilot]

real i wana use it on a corvette so bad but i don’t know how to implement it where it looks really good

[golden bridge]

Disco Doom

Available in servicebot

[simple vector]

I don't get why they call these huge, fat ships corvettes. Corvettes, fast sporty things, little baskets

maybe in the naval meaning

[calm shoal]

Lmao, it's real alright and the best program ive used

[somber pilot]

sweet

i need to get a good picture with this ship lol

[calm shoal]

looks pretty good!

you have to wait even more i think

its been a while since i did that

i never usually do it, i have the wraith

[crimson quarry]

opinion?

[raven rover]

Siick!

[unreal hedge]

It's Party Time

[split tulip]

if you make a corvette can you make it faster with more boosters? Like the more rockets the faster you are?

[raven rover]

No

max is at 3 boosters

anything after that is just decorations

[split tulip]

hmm

[raven rover]

You can still put upgrade modules tho

[lunar eagle]

It's the same for most classes of parts. Shields, habs, thrusters, etc. Reactors seem to be a special case -- some limit at 2, and they are somewhat independent, liek you can have 2 of one type, 3 of another, etc.

[unreal hedge]

yep yep, buy S class mods, spam until you get nice stats from one

er 3

[lunar eagle]

I'd go for X over S for most things. The top end is slightly better, though you will roll a lot of junk too

Get S, upgrade to X when your wallet allows

[unreal hedge]

tru, i got some mind blowing ones from X

[lunar eagle]

I wish there were more angled wing-like covering pieces. I don't want a corvette that looks liek it's built from LEGO

But making a wide swept design is tedious. I might have to resort to that base building mod to tweak it

[unreal hedge]

pointy like this>

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E81iXiksCe4 this helped me a lot

[lunar eagle]

The biggest problem, really, is that there are so few pieces that fit together. Like, if I want to use an Arcadia Blade, there are hardly any pieces that match the vertical profile, so you can;t put anything next to it except another Arcadia Blade, or it looks off. It really limits your ability to make "wings" on things. No flat continuing piece for the Vesper/Hardframe Aerofoils too. You gotta hump them up and down if you want to run them along the length of your ship.

everything has a flat front with an angled side. I want something with 2 angles, liek the Arcadia Stabilizer

[lunar eagle]

that would be fine, if it were a) flatter, or b) more parts lined up with it

[unreal hedge]

I get what you mean, like i saw this one, it looked great far away but real bubbly up close

[drifting nexus]

What improvements to the upgrades would you make? I’m trying to get the best hyperdrive ship without sacrifing good phase beam damage

[wraith minnow]

My newest Corvette, left a place open in the from for the hope they allow starships pads added to Corvette builds. Or I might glitch it onto it

[lunar eagle]

Add shield generators and the shield-boosting reactors.
Add the MEdusa reactors for more Maneuverability
Put he Photon Cannon itself on the SC slot
Put the Square reactor next to the Hyperdrive parts
Expand your tech slots to 60 (or more, in any case)
Play around with adjacencies to see what layout boosts performance the most

You can actually get stats from 2-3 of each reactor, instead of 3 reactors total, so load them up

You upgraded to S class, so yeah, max out those tech slots. Then add S class Starship upgrades, upgrade to X class when you can

Landing gear gets adjacency bonuses from Launch Thrusters

What sucks is any time you rearrange any Corvette, it's gonan screw with your module/upgrade placement

[unreal hedge]

ps5

[glass surge]

I'd work on expanding your tech slots to 60 before anything.
Here's a short video covering the free tech slots trick https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ch-HuzLEEQw

then you can use this site to optimize it or any other slot layout you may have for anything https://nms-optimizer.app/?platform=standard

[blazing hinge]

This is why I desperately need Aeron parts lol. I'm stuck making things like this

[unreal hedge]

shoot, im on paid medical leave, just had my wisdom teeth removed so sitting here not talking like a monk! post your location and i shall hook you up

we just gotta wait, really

sad

[blazing hinge]

You on switch also?

[nimble stirrup]

nop

[lyric oyster]

My guess is next week

[blazing hinge]

I hope or maybe by Friday

[twilit crescent]

what mfs be building while I make Borg Cubes

[quiet rampart]

Damn 40 part limit

[glass surge]

Switch 1 players have it rough

[lunar eagle]

Finally got v3 of my new Corvette design finished. Thanks for the advice from everyone who commented #nms-showcase-corvettes message

[quiet rampart]

I legitimately need just ten more parts for a couple designs I want to do
The required part limit is the biggest enemy of the 40 part limit

[stable yoke]

Yea it sucks on switch only being able to use 40 parts instead of 100 and being so far behind on updates

[river roost]

Oh yeah I made like a 10 part corvette that’s kinda cool don’t have any pictures rn tho

Modeled it after the helicopters from avatar kinda

[blazing hinge]

We have the same build limit now just no cross play at the moment

I'm on switch 2 so I can use 100 parts not sure about switch 1

[river roost]

Switch 1 is 40 last I heard

[stable yoke]

Yea I said switch not switch 2

[deft parcel]

Free item corvette V2

im tired boss

[rapid drift]

Do you have Corvette parts?

[deft parcel]

nop

[rapid drift]

Aw ok

[deft parcel]

sorry

[rapid drift]

Your good

I figured not cuz that's a grind lol

[deft parcel]

yeah

[ebon wraith]

Next time there is an expdition you should bring that in and park it at the starting planet

[deft parcel]

That’s right

[quiet rampart]

Unfortunately yes it wouldn't be so bad if it was the required 6 parts + 40 but no

[river roost]

Honestly weapons shouldn’t be required since your automatically given one anyways

[quiet rampart]

Or landing thrusters since you hover most times and don't land properly when you do anyway lol

[peak lodge]

Ok so, I'm having a pretty serious issue with my corvette, it's extremely offset and it's parked out of bounds in the anomaly

I am also out of bounds with it

[tribal reef]

Just finished this build by Darth Benjamin on YT… This thing is sick!!! I’m in love!

[terse linden]

beeg

[peak lodge]

I don't think that's supposed to happen

[glass surge]

do you have any weird decoration in or on your corvette?

[peak lodge]

Yeah, i think this happened because i moved something while in hyperdrive

Found it, fixed 👍

[charred tide]

Hi guys. I am returning player since 5 yrs ago, when corvettes were not in the game. i just managed to assemble my first corvette, and i have a bunch of questions to which i do not seem to get any answers in any tutorial videos whatsoever, or anywhere else for that matter.. is there someone who would be willing to share expertise on this?

[quick ermine]

i may be able to help out, i wouldnt call myself an expert though

[charred tide]

Thanks! Do you have some time now?

[quick ermine]

sure

[charred tide]

I mean, it would be easier to discuss on discord..?

[quick ermine]

we can team up in game and use voice chat in game

[charred tide]

yes. shall we meet in nexus?

[quick ermine]

sure gimme a sec ill send you my friend code

[charred tide]

hey, actually i have 1 tiny non-game thing to attend to shortly.. is tit ok if im off like 5-10 minutes?

[quick ermine]

oh sure np i sent you my friend code in a message when you get back send me yours

[charred tide]

👍

all right, im back.

i added you, and sent you my friend code.

[timid otter]

is grinding salvage containers the fastest way to get a good corvette?

my luck is ass and ive been doing this for hours

like so far i've js gotten common parts and one decent one

[hardy dragon]

The fastest Way is No mans Sky Service Bot.

[timid otter]

wuts that

[hardy dragon]

Google it...thank me later.😅

[timid otter]

im scared

oh

i wnt a normal ingame way

[hardy dragon]

I got this from Service Bot.

[restive jungle]

@timid otter you realy should try service bot

[timid otter]

is it cheating tho?

[hardy dragon]

No, it is a Service.

[timid otter]

im scared what are you saying

like rly vague

what is service bot?

[hardy dragon]

You dont need to pay anything, its free...almost every NMS Player use it.

[timid otter]

prob some cheat or smt

[hardy dragon]

Look at the Website...you can use it, or Not.
I love this, cuz i'm so creative like a Potato, i couldn't build a Millenium Falcon or Enterprise. 😂

[timid otter]

alr

i want to do things myself

not with a bot

You can Uptrade your unwanted Corvette Parts.

[timid otter]

how?

[velvet ruin]

A free service, operated through a website, where you can request loads of things - custom ships, resources, transportation to places in the galaxy, etc. - that are delivered automatically by a bot account. It can be useful but id hardly say almost every player uses it.
It is optional, though, of course. But if you want specific other player corvettes, for instance, you may have to have them delivered via the service bot.

[hardy dragon]

Where you Built it

[timid otter]

yea i alr found out

thanks th

[timid otter]

aight

[velvet ruin]

:)

You can barter corvette parts like fossils at the building terminal

*like you can barter fossils, I should say

[feral elk]

is this possible? We can make a Star Destroyer.

[light osprey]

can i somehow offset part on the side?

[stable yoke]

YouTube offset building

[light osprey]

that method not working for what i need

i need 2 diffusers on top of 1 hub

[stable yoke]

Ah I see

[velvet ruin]

You can offset forward/backward, left/right, and up/down as far as i am aware

[stable yoke]

You forward and backwards for sure I didn't know you could do it the other way it's how I built the nose and spine on mine

[velvet ruin]

Placing a small item like a vent on a hab, you can then pick up and move the hab around so it attaches to the vent differently and will be offset up, down, left, right, and/or forward

[stable yoke]

I'll have to try that on my next build I only knew forward and backwards

[velvet ruin]

Yea it's pretty nifty

[sage raptor]

How much should I save up for my first Corvette? I've never done this before and I think the Corvettes look really cool and I want a cooler ship.

[velvet ruin]

I think you will need several million credits to buy basic parts, then you can slap together a basic corvette and use it to farm parts significantly easier

It is either several million or over 10 million but I believe it is the former

[stable yoke]

You need like 70k nanites to upgrade to a s-class then millions of dollars for the tech and inventory slots

[velvet ruin]

What

Oh like to upgrade it to S?

[stable yoke]

I'm not sure if arguments work for corvettes or not

I remember my first one was very expensive my second one I built in creative

[stable yoke]

Yea to upgrade class

[lunar eagle]

Try a Sentinel Interceptor. They look cool IMHO, have the best stats of anything, and they scrap for a lot of credits (15-60m each). Corvettes are nice, but tbh I prefer to fly a Starship most of the time.

[lunar eagle]

I doubt that. Plenty do, I am sure, but a lot of us prefer to make our own things. And you'll never become more creative if you not only don;t build your own things, but just order copies of other IPs. Corvettes are such a double-edged sword for NMS. It allowed endless creativity and possibilities, but half the playerbase seems intent on making a Millenium Falcon, Enterprise, or Milano. Milano is cool tho at least 😛

[velvet ruin]

You forgot star destroyer

[lunar eagle]

OMG yes, probably that more than anything too

I mean, admittedly, my newest Corvette is based on another ship from a different IP. "Inspired" by would be more accurate, and it only uses corvette parts and not 1000 flat panels.

It is a shame "White" in the Corvette palette is medium gray at best

[warm swift]

for me OG corvette builds is more admirable than panel builds

[lunar eagle]

I agree. If you can pull off a good copycat using only corvette parts and base deco (not the panel) though, that works. There is an awesome GotG Milano ship that some guy made YT vids for.

But in general, I prefer the ones that people use the normal parts for and just manage to arrange them in cool, creative ways

[warm swift]

true true

[lunar eagle]

Liek my ship, there are limitations I hit by doing so. Lack of bright white, the fact I want wide area of "wing" but there are no large wing parts, etc.

So I had to sort of match different parts with similar amgles to fake it

The extremely limited color palette options in the game are also hella frustrating

[warm swift]

like these one, they ask me if i use an app for them, i dont use such apps, thats make corvette building more fun for me

using limited parts trade in some parts and finding such parts and put them together is like a puzzle which makes corvette building more fun for me

[lunar eagle]

That F1 is very cleverly done

and looks good to boot

The tires are a regular base part, I guess

I seem to recall a bunch of "debris" type parts I never unlocked

[prime sky]

That a really beautiful corvette, great work!

[lunar eagle]

Thank you. It's the third iteration of it. I've gone through a few redesigns, both for more space inside, and switching to a 1/4 grid for soe part offsets. The only thing I still want to do is angle some of the parts in the front down a bit, but I don;t think I can do both 1/4 offset and angles on the same part without using the basebuilding app to modify it

[warm swift]

yes i just use some regular base parts

i think this is where discussion about corvette is

https://discord.com/channels/146101654981312513/1410859645433811055 and here you post your corvettes

[obsidian quiver]

ah, thank you

[lunar eagle]

Either 1/2 or 1/4 offset is the best you can do, I think

I used 1/4 offset to get 2 diffusers close on top of my center habs. They stick out 1/4 of the way on either side

here is a picture of how it looks #nms-corvette-discussion message

[manic rock]

man how do i farm phase beam arrays

i do not get any

🥹

[faint field]

Can hab model have 3 entrances, seems no matter how much rotated there will only be 2 entrances?

[elder iron]

Wdym entrances?

[ebon wraith]

I think it can have 2 outward entrances and 6 inward entrances

[tropic sapphire]

i got a question how does one find i dont know...inspiration to build...like even after watching and building using so many tutorials and doing things like off setting and all that other annoying stuff i just can't get it down in terms of coming up with my own ships. like id love to create my version of the Event Horizon or something inspired by it. which i kinda did but it was a blocky boring disaster 🙁 id really like to create the XS stock frieghter, X-70B Phantom and fury class imperial interceptors from star wars the old republic but I'm incompetent

[stable yoke]

I wish I had a PC

[lyric oyster]

I get a lot of inspiration from old tv shows like stargate, star trek and sometimes star wars. After choosing what i want my corvette to resemble the most it becomes a matter of creating a rough outline and refining it, ive edited my ship thats based on voyager at least 20 times, and to get the final result i completely redid the saucer section

[tropic sapphire]

there is a really cool guy on youtube that has a whole channel to creating star trek corvettes i created his enterprise-D cause thats my favorite one enterprise 🙂

maybe im being hard on myself...maybe i should recreate my event horizon and maybe try creating those other ships i mentioned...the first 2 i might be able to pull off but the fury class interceptor...thats another story

[lyric oyster]

I tried to do enterprise D but completely scrapped it cuz i couldnt figure out how to flare the battle section or how to make the saucer in an oval shape

[lyric oyster]

Maybe try to recreate the Daedalus from stargate, its a relatively boxy shaped starship that still looks pretty cool

[tropic sapphire]

there is a good turtorial for that already 🙂 its really good. i been meaning to build it cause i am a big stargate fan

[pure holly]

Where can I store my corvettes?

[tropic sapphire]

sadly thats not an option 🙁 maybe someday

[thin ermine]

Hey guys any corvette builders here that have the Aerron parts unlocked that’s can help me out with a peace of each

[nimble stirrup]

you should try asking around in #nms-lfg-or-trades for some

[thin ermine]

Apologies

[nimble stirrup]

no worries!

[elder iron]

Hmm, I do think there are better ways of making rounded shapes even without glitches/workarounds, but they might limit the interior by quite a bit

[tardy bear]

I made this a while ago

[drifting nexus]

just just

how

[elder iron]

Building ritual

It may seem like I am joking, but I'm not

[tardy bear]

Turn them habs upside down 😄

[robust jolt]

how do i fix this not working?

[elder iron]

How many engines (visually) do you have on the ship?

[robust jolt]

are those included?

if so

4 (plus the broken one) and another 4

8 total

including the broken one

[elder iron]

Hmm, that should be below the visual limit

[elder iron]

There is an upper limit for the visual effects thats decently higher than the tech limit

[robust jolt]

these are all i have

those 4 behind and the round things

[elder iron]

I also know they usually display when hovering midair

it's a recurring channel reminder

he does that automatically every so often

[robust jolt]

nahh

its personal

cuz of the memes i posted in #no-mans-sky

[nimble stirrup]

uh huh...

[elder iron]

I mean explicitly when not landed

[robust jolt]

yea

i never land my corvette

when hovering it still doesnt work

[stable yoke]

A couple of my engines don't show a trail either

[bleak aurora]

I was gonna say the same thing

[sage raptor]

Is 11mil enough for a decent first Corvette? Or should I spend my units on other things? I'm still very new, I just want an epic ship

I think I really wanna go around scrapping abandoned ships and idk if that'll be easier with a Corvette

[elder iron]

11 mil is enough for a decent starting corvette, but just having one can make getting more parts for them much quicker

[sage raptor]

How so?

I'm really struggling to find salvage containers. I spend an hour searching a planet with salvage scrap and only found one

I was planning to build my ship with just salvage container stuff but I couldn't find any

[sage raptor]

I would like to make my Corvette smaller and maneuverable for combat, but also decently sized enough for it to act as a mini base

How should I go about this?

[lunar eagle]

For me, I look for other people's cool ships, ships from other games or IPs, and use them as inspiration. Not an exact reproduction or copy, but general shape, the way some lines come together, etc. My latest corvette, now in its third rebuild from scratch with changes, is inspired by the MErcury Star Runner from Star Citizen for example. It's not all that similar admittedly, because NMS lacks large, wide wing parts, bright white as a colro scheme for parts, and many parts with the same profile. You can see it here #nms-showcase-corvettes message

[lunar eagle]

The Ambassador Heavy Thrusters and the Kineostream Thruster third has the highest Maneuverability Boost, I think. Or double Titan + Kineo. Something like that. Add 2 MEdusa Reactors. And you want at least 12 free hab walls for the 10 storage, the mission radar, and a refiner

Upgrade it to S class, ass S-class or X class upgrades and use adjacency bonuses properly. There is also a maneuverability boost trick using starship trails and figures that may help

[sage raptor]

I cannot upgrade it quite yet. I'm still very early into the game. I'd be using just 11mil to build it, and like 2 parts I found on a planet

[lunar eagle]

Stay away from water. I use exocraft with the scanner upgrade to search.

[sage raptor]

Exocraft? I've heard of them but have yet to find a way to get one

Is an exocraft better than a Corvette for finding Corvette parts? Other than obvious you gotta buy a Corvette to use it to find Corvette parts

[lunar eagle]

you can unlock the parts at the base blueprints terminal at the anomaly. Honestly, work on farming a few salvaged ships, until you can work up to salvaging crashed sentinel interceptors

[sage raptor]

So I shouldn't get the Corvette? I really want it honestly, I like the idea of autopilot and being able to scan for fun stuff while flying

[lunar eagle]

sentinel interceptors are AWESOME ships -- look cool, best in class performance, and free. Plus they sell for 15-60m at the scrap dealer so you can make money fast farming them from harmonic camps and selling multiple copies

I have two Corvettes. I rarely use them, My maxed-out Starship + Freighter do everything I want well

[sage raptor]

I haven't been able to get a good starship aside from upgrading my base one

[lunar eagle]

I DID finally use my Corvette to autopilot so I caoud search for Wonders on a planet because I was not finding any, and it finally worked. Was boring as hell tho 😛

[sage raptor]

And freighters are even more foreign to me

[lunar eagle]

you will get one eventually. I think I told you earlier how to find crashed ships -- buy distress signal charts from the chart vendor in a space station

they lead to crashed ships, downed pilots, and other sites of interest

[sage raptor]

I've been getting those, I'll grab more once I hop on again

[lunar eagle]

claim any ships you find, fix the thrusters and drive, and scrap it at the space station

easy money early on

[sage raptor]

I have a special method for scrapping ships without repairing them hehe, I just use my base

I probably gotta put down another base tbh

[lunar eagle]

later you can use carrier AI fragments or echo locators to find sentinel ships, which are worth liek 10x-20x the money as basic ships

much faster, and you can get a cool new ship for yourself too

[south garnet]

How do people make the huge interiors?

[glass surge]

you basically build a corvette around a big empty space instead of using habs etc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RLJdSdnHpNU

[south garnet]

Ohh

so not good for compact corvettes

also whats the best cannon like the photon cannon but better?

[glass surge]

Well you can't currently remove the photon cannon so your best option is either build up the photon cannon with upgrades or use other weapons. I use 6 phase beams on one of my corvettes as it's currently OP especially with mods.

They all work and have their uses

[south garnet]

Whats the best part to max like pulse engine or what?

[glass surge]

as far as pule engines you want to get all the upgrades from the Anomaly, use x class upgrades, and use engines, like the Titan, Ambassador with the rounded shape, and the Kinostream are generally pretty good.

You also want to have Medusa Reactors that work with the cockpit and boost maneuverability.

[golden bridge]

Death of the disco lantern

[timid otter]

anyone got some ideas for beginner corvettes? cuz my first one is hot ass

[lucid ravine]

is the word "hot ass" suppose to be in a positive or negative way?

[timid otter]

extremely negative

its js a bunch of scrap and a hab put together

[silver widget]

unmodded???

[golden bridge]

No use blender

[silver widget]

Ah damn

[rich sail]

How do you make all 4 of these things glow and work? Only 2 work on my ship at a time.

[green trail]

I think it's a bug. Has been reported. It has something to do with maximum numbers of "thruster" effect. Just for science remove other thrusters and reload

[tropic sapphire]

Ohh wow that's really cool. Yeah for me creating the sith fury class ship from Star Wars, the old republic presents a challenge. Because of the shape, the wings, they're weird in terms of being able to make them with no mans sky parts. Im sure i can do the other two star warships. I mentioned and like I said, I did the event horizon based on a Reddit picture. But I just wasn't satisfied with it

[lunar eagle]

Yeah, NMS lacks parts to create large flat wings. You could make a small ship in a fairly close shape, but making a large one would be more difficult.

I think you could pull off something relatively close with glitch building and angled placement, even without cheating with a 3rd party app

[gaunt prawn]

Find myself wanting to hang out in my Corvette more than anywhere else sometimes

[nimble stirrup]

[gaunt prawn]

Lol is that supposed to be the graphic I have on the wall?

[nimble stirrup]

no that's a different thing

oh wait

I see what you mean

[ebon wraith]

Cozy

[tight prairie]

What do you think about my corvette?

[elder iron]

Looks kinda like a hotrod, lol

[slender valve]

My main corvette right now took me around 15 hours to make

[tight prairie]

In a good way? 😅

[elder iron]

Yeah

[tight prairie]

Oh tyy

Thats the one i use the most

This is inside

[sage raptor]

Rate my Corvette! Baby's first! It's not really attractive but it's functional for being early ish game!

Tips for making it even better are appreciated :3

[silver widget]

It’s better than the monstrosity I came up with!

[glass surge]

You can make it symmetrical or not, some people have done interesting trash style / lived in corvette's.

I'd work on getting parts on a small moon or planet or you can change the settings under difficulty to make crafting free and not worry about parts.

We have videos pinned in this channel for build techniques.

For Design inspiration I'd recommend checking out #nms-showcase-corvettes or https://www.reddit.com/r/NMS_Corvette_Design/

[sage raptor]

I'm currently saving up to upgrade it even more. I wanna keep it super maneuverable but also have a decent chunk of utilities inside, so I need space for that

Unfortunately the class upgrade I bought did not come with extra tech slots

[elder iron]

The tech matters more for the stats than the size

[sage raptor]

So I need to get more tech slots somehow

Idk how to reliably get more tech slots without spending a ton of units for just a few

It sucks that each part takes up a tech slot, it makes it harder for me to have tech in my ship

But whenever I get advanced parts I'll be golden

[elder iron]

You can kinda push more tech slots by removing parts, installing tech, and adding the parts again

[sage raptor]

Really?

[glass surge]

yes really even on a c-class corvette

[sage raptor]

I shall do that then

[glass surge]

max corvette tech slots is 60 max so 6 rows of 10

[elder iron]

Only to the slot limit of the class, though

[elder iron]

Kinda

[glass surge]

the tech slot tricks breaks the class limit

[elder iron]

Whenever I tried it, it stopped working past 1 row above the class limit, iirc

[glass surge]

I haven't made a new corvette with the new update so unless they stealth patched it it should work the same

EDIT: Just tried it on a C-Class corvette and it still lets me get to the 60 max on a C-Class Corvette

[sage raptor]

You can repeat it, correct? Also what upgrades should I get then? What's best for speed and maneuverability?

[glass surge]

How to get more Corvette tech slots on a C-class Corvette or higher for free (max of 60 slots).

1. Gather C-Class starship upgrades, trails, and or figurines.
2. Gather Corvette core modules like weapons, reactors, shields etc
3. Go to a Space Station, deposit the Corvette core modules in the corvette cache and go edit your corvette.
4. In the Corvette editor add as many Corvette Tech modules to your corvette (place them where you can easily remove them as they are temporary for right now), Apply edits and exit the Corvette Editor.
5. Check your Corvette tech slots and they should have expanded with all the added tech modules.
6. Edit your Corvette again and remove all the Corvette Tech modules you've added, apply edit, check your corvette Tech slots, and you should see open tech slots.
7. Fill the empty tech slots with C-Class starship upgrades, trails, and or figurines.
8. Edit your Corvette again and add the core modules you previously removed to open up more tech slots.

Repeat steps 4-8 until you hit the max of 60 tech slots on a corvette.

[sage raptor]

I'm still confused rip... Add Corvette parts to expand?

Just load that sucker up with Corvette parts until it big boy rinse and repeat?

[glass surge]

yes also the c-class modules etc help fill out empty slots so you can push it to the max

[sage raptor]

Okay so buy a ton of class modules then?

C class*

Aight. Thanks!

[tight prairie]

That true i have made an asymetrical scrapper

Every think you build can be cool

[glass surge]

For speed and maneuverability you want to get all the pulse engine upgrades on the Anomaly from the Starship Research Terminal by NPC Iteration: Hyperion.

You can add 3 extra upgrade modules to the pulse engine upgrades; S-Class or X-Class upgrades work.

3 Medusa Reactors also work to up Boost and Maneuverability; go into the Corvette Editor delete your cockpit and add three Medusa reactors, add the cockpit back last, apply edits, and then put the Medusa Reactors together in your tech slots.

Engine choice matters and you want to go for three A-Class engines like the Titan Heavy Booster, Ambassador Heavy Booster, Thunderbird Heavy Booster, Arcadia Heavy Booster, Kinostream Thruster, and Areon Drive. You can still be fast if you different drives but it won't be the max; so use what you enjoy and work with your design

Last but not least you need 85k/85,000 nanites to make your Corvette to S-Class and unlock your four super charged slots as upping the class will upgrade all your base stats.

[lunar eagle]

Watch some YT video tutorials on glitch building to learn the 1/2, 1/4, and angle offset tricks. Also search for some YT build guides, find a relatively simple design you like, and build it, even if just for the practice. After that it's just about applying those techniques, finding inspiration, and your own creativity.

[lunar eagle]

Class upgrades only unlock the possibility of slots, you still need to buy them. Class C-B-A-S max out at 30-40-50-60 tech slots

[sage raptor]

Saving up the nanites, I made my Corvette ugly af but functional AF too (I think)

[south garnet]

How do people make sick corvettes?

[nimble stirrup]

lots of time and practice

[south garnet]

Mine all look like 3 designs

fighter, long skinny brick or hovery thing

but all like the same size

[sage raptor]

I just jammed all the utility parts I had on there for better stats (maybe? Idk how this works tbh)

It's certainly sick! Just maybe... Not in the way you'd expect a ship called a Corvette to be

I just want good stats for my ship so it go wheeeee through the stars

[elder iron]

Part of the time and practice is learning to plan ahead with some parts of the design. I have a tendency to cram most of the functional parts towards the back of my corvettes, as can probably be seen on this one

[sage raptor]

Mine is .. certainly interesting

Mismatched parts galore

[hallow fiber]

hey guys uh how do you get the aquatic based decorations for the corvette, im trying to make a ship corvette

[nimble stirrup]

aquatic based?

[hallow fiber]

yeah

like I saw some corvette interior designs where they would have sails or aquariums

[nimble stirrup]

interesting

I'm not too sure, really

[hallow fiber]

aww man really? I needed those parts for a pirate ship kinda deal

all good thanks

[glass surge]

For Sails go to the Anomaly, Go to the Quicksilver NPC and select create items from Quicksilver, select base building parts by using the a or d keys on keyboard and then scroll down until you see sails; scroll further down and you can see small aquarium.

Hopefully you have the quicksilver for the items.

these are usually built hitting the Z key on PC for the base building menu when you're on your corvette and not directly in the corvette editor.

You can skim through videos like this too look for relevant parts on how to build sail like ships https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Yd8K9GZmr0

[hallow fiber]

thank you! I also just figured it out so thanks a lot

[blazing hinge]

I finally got the pieces omg yeeeeees

[stray spruce]

How did you get the pieces? Trade?

[blazing hinge]

Found a guy in Japan that had them on switch 2. I have lots now

[stray spruce]

Nice! Im gonna try to find someone on here to buy some. What do people usually require for currency for the parts?

[blazing hinge]

Found them on reddit lol

I can only give them to switch 2 at the moment

[stray spruce]

No worries. Im on ps5. Your ship looks sweeeeet though

[river roost]

Quicksilver

[stray spruce]

Do you know how much per part or are they all different amounts?

[manic rock]

corvette is op

[blazing hinge]

They are different prices but do quicksilver missions will get you the in game currency to get them from the quicksilver merchant in the nexus

There should be one going on now for 1800

[stray spruce]

Just got done it 🙂 ty!
