Speaking of which.
Can we get a new jump-tunnel effect. Old ones getting a bit boring, and doesn't look very "WOOSH" or "SPACE" anymore.
?

Not that I have pictures, but from memory I think there are:
cruiser, dread, supply, transport, engineer
For the Mir/Legion/MI/mysterious new faction.

Gideon wanted to change their name to "Legion", I left it with the name Nimby wanted...
Actually Nimby said he doesnt know where the "R" came from, in the system we know the Mir as: "MI" ... But since everyone has called the Mir forever we decided that "MI" was singular, and "Mir" was possessive and plural. But since it was Nimbys creation over all, its not our place to change it so dramatically.
Also at this time there are no "small" Mir ships. they dont think that way...

I like the picture, could be the perfect platform for a carrier of some sort since you need a long runway * i think* to get them fighters in the air
1 piece of advice though change the parts that are a bit yellow in color to the neon blue kind since all Mir ships i've seen use it that way and get rid of the nice smooth edges as seen in the screenshots are you might see what im pointing at

My textures all have funky colors and I'm way too lazy to find a way to change them all to fit the current themes... my UGTO ships are cyan-white, K'luth ships are dark blue/light blue, and my 1 ICC ship is a dull gray-red with the occasional orange stripe :/
MIR should get fighters soon then

The problem is that this model really doesnt fit in with the feel of the other Mir ships...
The model below, only 537 polys, was one that was made to fit in with the feel of the Mir ships to flesh out more ships, but has not been added to the game...

I actually have a model of that somewhere in my room. I never noticed the similarity before.

I can't tell heads or tail of that thing, it's like a giant blob of tentacle death.
