Status: offline 		Well, in the star trek universe they used Warp Drives not chemical rockets.  That is why I didn't add engine glows.  I think I added them to the Babylon 5 ships though ( if I remember correctly ).  Engine glows aren't hard to add.  I used Gimp to modify the images for DW ( Gimp is free to download ).

Well, no ships in the game use chemicals either. It's your mod though, you decide how it is. I'm a bit picky about new shipsets, i don't just add them because they are available, i want the ones that look nice and fit well in the game. I prefer utilitarian like ships to "work of art" ones.

PS. B5 ships did not seem to have their engines and lights set when i checked (days ago though).

I don't think I will be able to come up with anymore so I'm going to go ahead and release what I have. Disclaimer: These ships were not 'created' by me...they were collected and manipulated to form other ships and to be compatible with the game. I hope you like/enjoy them.

Status: offline 		Shameless bump as I have recently seen B5 once again mentioned on the DW forums. With all the fantastic star trek mod and imagery out now for DW it still astounds me we have no real complete mod for B5. Kalthaniell might see this and actually make a B5 mod......lol!!!  Hey fishman just for your information my previous statement was a "beg". (Those wondering what the heck i am talking about can see his post on page 1 of this resurrected thread from the DW vault)

Years later and still no B5 mod...... It is inspiring me to learn how to mod so in another 2 years look for my version to come out.

Maybe you throw a look over the gallery of this page. Its an english/german site, working at a B5 mod for X3.

Possibly gives you a few more things to add in ;)

I believe I've seen that site before and the problem there is that most images are not top down...they are at an angle. As it is I'm not satisfied with the collection I have. Previously it has not been hard to simply make a folder and stick the ship images into it and voila you have a mod, so I have simply posted what I managed to find and let everyone else decide if they want them or not.
