Prometeu, you are amazing.
Will you be doing more in the future or is it time for you to move on?

It is a hobby of mine and I like improving SE5 and adding new stuff.
I hope this year to create 2 mods with galactic maps and all (new planets, new tech, new effects)

Amazing works, Prometeu, as always. (How many shipsets will you make? Their identity is top secret (except Covenant and UNSC), I think.
You should upload them to Spaceyards.

You don't like Marvin Martian... How dare you! | I like Marvin, but... I can't visualize anyone using that sort of architectural style IRL...

scorpya shipyards in battlestar looks something like that but you are right it is to big to unrealistic be used in this game

Well if you haven't noticed, assuming that the grid is 25 km, planets are only the size of large asteroids...

Maybe... secrets man... secrets.
Finally I have completed the alpha version of the wraith. I hope you enjoy the shipset and please report any bugs.

I think some people will be very happy that someone made a 40k shipset. You may have made the day for 2000 people or so.

Heretic... It just looks that way.
This is how it will look:
I still have to do the InvConfiguration Slots see if there are any bugs but it will be ready soon.

Hey Prometeu, looks good!
Some feedback:
Overall -- they seem a bit low-contrast such that it's difficult to make out the nice detail on them. I imagine a big consideration is the difficulty in making them clearly visible, what with the muted blue color scheme they use.
Perhaps a bit more brightness and contrast + lower saturation? I did some quick messing around with brightness/contrast, saturation and filters a bit in GIMP with the frigate texture to experiment a bit just to see how it would look with a bit more contrast. The big pic has a couple of GIMP filters run on it, the lighter one is just blurred a bit with highlights preserved, and the smaller dark one is darkened and just blurred. Probably would need even brighter highlights than what I did here, though, to avoid it being too dark.
The grey portions on some units (Destroyer, Troop, etc.) are featureless, flat grey -- they could use with just a bit of texture or noise.
Looking closely at that nice frigate, it's great! A few rough spots. The guns in the front appear to be textureless. (Sorry, don't know proper 3D modeling terms.) The JPEG artifacts in the texture are a bit distracting and they seem a bit bright -- I tried a couple of tricks to compensate for that in the pic.
The troop has some overlapping segments (? -- again, not sure the proper term) that keep flipping back and forth between textures when you spin it.
Destroyer: Seems like something is missing, with the top cut off, or something? At least in the shipset viewer. Portions visible from one angle but not another, ribbons suspended in mid-space, etc. Maybe it's just a shipset viewer thing?
Overall, though, it looks really nice, and I am under the impression these things are tons of work, so I really appreciate your doing them. And the other three (WH, Valahian and Terran Fed) look great too!
By the way, what is your AI conception for them (the Wraith)? (Techs, traits, strategy, etc.) I was about to do their AI for the updated BM set.

Wow! What a crappy shipset it turned out to be. I see I have a lot of work to do on this one. If you can do an AI I will really appreciate it Thanks for the feedback.

Aw, please don't take it that way, Prometeu! I'm not saying that at all. Just fine-tuning suggestions to make it better (some of them, like the color contrast, obviously very subjective and I could be way off). I really like it, actually, which is why I'm responding on it -- same with the other one.
And I'd be happy to do AIs for your shipsets if you'd like! Just let me know the concept -- trait layout, weapon use, engagement style (bombardment/plague/boarding/fighters/drones/etc.) and I'll make nice tailored ones.

Sorry! Don't mind me I like to dramatize things I really appreciate your feedback. Back to the drawing board (literary)

Ah, whew! Okay. I've already put my foot in my mouth once already, so I was dreading doing so again...
