A new version of Firefly ships has been uploaded, including Gunrunner's new ship. (Still needs some work, but feel free to play around with it.)

Added target/shipyard pics for the Sprinter, and added the ASREV.
Neither ship has engine glows yet.

New versions of Firefly Interface and Firefly Ships have been uploaded. Fixed a typo in the former, and added the Gunship to the latter. The archives haven't been updated this time, though.

The latest upload contains the Saber Skiff, as well as a necessary resource I had previously neglected regarding the Gunship----both should now be buyable.
I'd like feedback regarding ship stats....I'm pretty much making them up as I go. I'll need to go back and re-balance everything at some point, may as well get some preliminaries on that.

The Speed and Armor stats look ok for now. They might need a rework when we add weapons
Here are some stats I think will work out good. Skiff: Space: 20 Cargo: 5 Lenth: 10 Crew: 2 Guns: 6
Gunship: Space: 30 Cargo: 5 Lenth: 15 Crew: 1 Guns: 2 (The Gunship's size might need to be shrunk by 75-50%)
ASREV: Space: 60 Cargo: 20 Lenth: 30 Crew: 3 Guns: 4

I'm starting to have some serious size issues. I think I may need to re-render several ships at smaller sizes.
The latest upload contains the Patrol Boat, but....it's too big. About 20%-30% too big, IMO.
I'll probably re-render it somewhat smaller. Possibly the Firefly-class, too, to keep some sense of scale. As a result, I'll probably also shrink the gunship and ASREV slightly. The Skiff should be fine, though.
What do you think of the Skiff's current fuel setup? It can only make one jump at a time, but unlike other ships, its fuel regenerates. Except, it regens faster than I'd like.

I've been having a few problems recently, RG&E shut off our power and when we got it back a power surge killed my computer's power supply and two of my buds stop by and hooked me up with a new power supply. I'll look over the new verson soon and I'll get back to work ASAP.

I think all the ships could be smaller since the Firefly and Patrol Boat are at the size I imagined for the medium to large sized ships when they are small (small but bigger than fighters) size ships.
Anyway I think some of the large Alliance Ships should be rendered HUGE, to give you that insignificant feeling.

I just uploaded a version with the patrol boat smaller. I've decided to hold off on the other ships for a while; nothing kills motivation like re-doing work you've already completed. So I'm moving on instead.
I think I'm going to start writing some missions now. Nothing too arcish, just the standard move-cargo missions.

I've made changes and additions to several of the files. Unfortunately, there seems to be a problem with the webspace I was using to host the mod files. Don't worry, I haven't lost anything; but there may be a delay in making further updates available.

The webspace problems have been resolved. I'm in the process of re-uploading all the files, which were lost online. You'll know it's done when the index page starts working; I expect no more than an hour or two. (I hate asymmetric DSL connections.)

The new version has the Alliance Carrier, as well as changes in the intro text, and the description/bar for Shadow.
