BLACKSPOT - GHOST Version 2.0
GHOST , new: With vehicle version included
-----------------------------------------
The GHOST comes in 2 versions:
- A static version of 58 meters length with rezzable sails and cannons
- A vehicle version of 52 meters length
This ship is mostly made of mesh parts and there are a few things to considerate:
- You need a mesh enabled viewer to see this ship.
- All parts of the ships are copy and modifiable, but unlinking the linksets or relinking them differently will change the land impact/prim count.
- Some parts - as the hull - are made of one mesh piece, which cannot be taken apart (like a sculpted prim), - however they can be resized and retextured.
Static Version
------------------
58 meters total length, including the bow.
Width is 12 meters, total height 46 meters.
Land Impact / Prim count:
Basic ship: 158
Sails: 19
Set of 6 cannons: 39
Sails/Cannons:
The GHOST comes with rezzable sails and cannons.
The rezzer menu for these is located in the main mast. Click it and you can rezz
- 3 sail sets (dark, grey, bright)
- a set of 6 deck cannons.
You can use the "Guest" option to allow others to use the menu as well.
Vehicle Version
--------------------
The drivable/sailable version has a simple driving engine. Just rezz the ship on the water, "sit" on the shipwheel and use keyboard arrows to navigate.There are several passenger seats on the decks.
Show/hide the sails by clicking on the square iron buttons located on the main mast below the lantern.
The vehicle version is one linkset and it is 10% smaller than the static version.
Accessories
-----------
Besides the ship rezzer and the notecards you the box contains
- 2 extra copiable sculpted cannons, one of them with a a shadow - to be placed on deck.
- 2 different extra mesh lanterns
One of my favorite homes
As of this review this ship has been my main ship. We have done quite a few raids, meetings between captains, sailed it from one end of the map to the other (IC scenes, not actual sailing)...and a TON of goofing off on this ship. I have not once had a lick of trouble with this ship. It was perfect right out of the box, and remained so even after I took it apart and put it back together! Haha. I do have a new Blackspot ship, purchased today, I plan to move to, but the Ghost will remain out and in our fleet.
Texture work is beautiful, everything lines up, scale is very nice, plenty of space without being ridiculous, I love the crow's nests...much fun to just stand on >.>
I can't speak on the new vehicle version, because I only learned today there is an update and I don't plan to use a vehicle version. But it is very nice to have that option :)
ships doesnt sail
just wanted to make t hat clear for people. I missed that in the details...kinda sucks but i wont gig the design it looks good but damn it hurt a bit that it doesnt sail
