Q&A / making models

« on: September 12, 2016, 07:03:05 pm »

As a dedicated player to GOIO i having finally reached a point where i would like to make things for the game. i have used solidworks and autocad before in school however due to budgeting reasons i will be using blender. I was wondering if someone could make some tutorials on how to make costume items ships and weapons that can be scaled properly into GOIO. This would help us a lot. Ultimately i probably need to get my hands on in game models to do so. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Feedback and Suggestions / STEAMPUNK QUAD BOFORS

I had an idea for a new "heavy" weapon. I am a huge fan of the quadruple bofors AA seen on second world war ships. I thought of having the same damage as light flak guns except that there would be 4 barrels firing at once instead of 2 as well as a larger clip size. Too make sure it's not over powered the guns traverse speed would be slowed when firing, similiar to the apollo lense array. For a design idea i thought of four copper coloured barrels that would have horn shaped ends like a blunderbuss, as well gold springs on the barrels to absorb recoil. I'm taking a wild guess in the dark that maybe 5 shells per barrel for a total of 20 shells depending on what ammo type you take may be a good number. An ammunition reload animation is yet to be thought of. This gun will probably find more use in Alliance mode because there are aircraft but im sure it would find some use in Skirmish.

Would love to hear some feedback as this is my first forum post about a future idea!
