I loved the "additions" to the Hecate.

Raa, I can run your Sobek through PCS if you like.

Actually, I've almost got it. I just have to fix the size issues, and the orientation

Sizing is the hardest part. I can get it close, but not close enough... :grr:
It's at 622 length when it should be 608. And I'm having difficulty getting MAX to be a little more precise.

603...
Close enough for everyone? Or should I tempt fate and try to get it the 5 meters longer?

Tempt fate like you're supposed to, man.

I am... but max seems to crash every other time I try to convert this model... it's very annoying.

Is there not a box where you can enter the desired length, width or height? Seems like if you pay $1500(or not 
) for a software package designed to make meshes that somewhere, there would be something that let's you control the final dimensions.

Well, I'd imagine there should be such a thing, but I haven't found where it'll let me enter it exactly as such. Either way, I fiddled with it and it's at 608 long! Now all I need to do is get the pof data input and make sure the turrets are all firing from themselves, and not the main hull and I'll be set.

Actually, most negative comments on the Hecate are regarding its combat effectiveness in ship-to-ship engagements. When an attack by a corvette forces a Hecate to withdraw, I think its a bit under equipped to engage. It shines though as a carrier and command ship.Raa wrote:What ever made you think people disliked the hecate? Everyone liked it.

Really! An Orion would never had been overwhelmed by a Moloch. It kind of sucks as a carrier too, I mean what kind of idiot only deploys 3 additional ships to give cover to a 2 kilometer long ship against 5 wings of heavy bombers and an enemy capital ship?

BTW, Psychic, what movie is your avatar from?

It's an SNL Skit, isn't it? Mr Continental, with Christopher Walkin? (sp?)
