EVE General Discussion

All hail Eve:Borderlands has begun!

Two things:
1. Purifier is mis-labelled as Punisher in the link list
2. These are higher-resolution than the in-game skins. I'm not sure if I should phrase that as a compliment to you or a criticism to CCP.

Pretty awesome.

Where are you extracting generic faction paintjobs from? Or are you modifying existing textures?

I haven't had luck locating them with triexporter. Where are they located?

/res/dx9/models/ships/[race%]/[shipclass%]/[shipshull%]

I dont get why you want several manufacturer versions of all the ships...

thats like getting a Ferrari and giving it a Porsche paintjob

oooh, Yes please!

This kind of stuff is cool and OP did nice some very nice work. I like variety and something like this would be sweet IMO.

Good job

Aliastra Catalyst
The Aliastra Catalyst is a Destroyer designed to have great firepower but weak defenses.

Destroyers skill bonus per level:
10% Bonus to Small Hybrid Turret tracking speed
10% bonus to Small Hybrid Turret falloff

Role Bonus:
50% bonus to optimal range for small hybrid turrets

Development
Ideally suited for both skirmish warfare and fleet support, the Catalyst is touted as one of the best anti-frigate platforms out there. Faced with its top-of-the-line tracking equipment, not many can argue.

Aliastra purchased a large fleet of Catalysts several years ago, to protect its inter-Empire shipping routes. Subsequent evaluations determined that the Catalyst was considerably over-gunned for many of its safer routes, so 30% of their hulls were sold off and replaced by cheaper frigates. Some of these ships have since been retro-fitted for capsuleer use, and their distinctive color scheme makes them something of a collector's item.

Inner Zone Shipping Catalyst
The Inner Zone Shipping Catalyst is a Destroyer designed to have great firepower but weak defenses.

Destroyers skill bonus per level:
10% Bonus to Small Hybrid Turret tracking speed
10% bonus to Small Hybrid Turret falloff

Role Bonus:
50% bonus to optimal range for small hybrid turrets

Development
Ideally suited for both skirmish warfare and fleet support, the Catalyst is touted as one of the best anti-frigate platforms out there. Faced with its top-of-the-line tracking equipment, not many can argue.

Inner Zone Shipping's main claim to fame is as the Bank of Luminaire's preferred courier for high-value shipments. Catalysts are their preferred escort craft, combining high speed and maneuverability with an extremely heavy punch. For its highest-value runs, IZS prefers to use brand-new hulls, which are then immediately sold off after use to prevent unscrupulous elements from tracking their ID numbers. While most of these ships are repainted and sold as stock, Inner Zone has discovered a lucrative sideline in selling a few on to capsuleer collectors, who place a premium on ships with interesting histories.

Intaki Syndicate Catalyst
The Intaki Syndicate Catalyst is a Destroyer designed to have great firepower but weak defenses.

Destroyers skill bonus per level:
10% Bonus to Small Hybrid Turret tracking speed
10% bonus to Small Hybrid Turret falloff

Role Bonus:
50% bonus to optimal range for small hybrid turrets

Development
Ideally suited for both skirmish warfare and fleet support, the Catalyst is touted as one of the best anti-frigate platforms out there. Faced with its top-of-the-line tracking equipment, not many can argue.

The Intaki Syndicate fields large numbers of Catalysts as deep-space patrol craft. Its heavy armament lets it punch well above their weight, and its expansive cargo bay allows it to cruise for months between supply stops. Recently though, the Syndicate has retired a considerable number of its older hulls, with rumors suggesting their imminent replacement by a newer destroyer design. Regardless, their extensive military service gives them particular cachet among capsuleer collectors.
