The Type B "Reaverized" Serenity looks very nice. Exactly like I would have thought. I can't wait to see the Firefly 1 as the Type C! :)

Thank you very much, I was actually very self-conscious about the way I had made the "Reaverization", as I kinda wanted it to resemble the pirate ships more, but that just made it look extensively painted compared to the original.

I think I will take some time before I make the Type C, as it requires more art changes and I'm working on two mods which were mainly for myself, but I'm now considering releasing.

I was and am working on a Space Invader ship, and a Playable version of the boss Rebel Flagship, whereof I don't know if the latter has already been made, but I suspect it.

I just thought it would be fun to have two Flagships battle each other.

There are quite a few Rebel Flagship's out there, but I'm not sure if any of them still work with AE. I'm looking forward to what you release in the future. :)

I think making the reaverized flagship more like the vanilla pirate ships would have made it fell less like Firefly somehow.

BTW, I recently released my own UI and graphic overhaul mod which I named "Shiny!" ;) It has nothing to do with Firefly though. :roll:

That's what I thought :D, but as I didn't find one to try I just made it myself, as it's fairly quick when all the files for it are there.

That was exactly the thing that happened when I first tried to make a pirate Firefly, it just seemed out of place.

I've seen your mod, and it's very nice work, I do not play with it myself as I like to keep everything as traditional as possible. Though I know people have improved ship art, and GUI and so on, I just like the original style.

After some search for the Firefly series 2 ship, I finally found it, along with a bunch of other ships. This is a fantastic Image of the ships in the Firefly universe explained through "Atlas of the 'Verse: Volume 1", though my plans are still to do the Firefly-class series 1.

Also this youtube link made me realise how close I got to the paintjob on a new firefly class ship:

Though now I'm considering adding the last red painted areas, which I probably wont, as it's that would move a bit away from what we see in the show.

Everyday life has started again, but I did have the time recently to get the sprite art done for the third type of the Firefly.

Suggestions to what you would wanna see on this vessel is welcomed.
I myself is thinking about trying to do something with Ion boarding drones.

On a different note: I'm still on the Serenity and bought first MC and then Hack. The scrap went away, the system vanished from the shop, but it never showed on my ship. Do you have any idea whether this could have been caused by the mod or a general bug?

I have the sneaking suspicion it's caused by Mal's curse, i.e. things don't go smooth. :lol:

Edit: There's definitely something iffy going on, I went back to the store, bought a clone bay - same deal.
