    i dont have much experience with valve hammer, working on my first CS map, but heres an idea for the one who are going to prefab:
    in the first level in the Aliens campagin you start in a small cargo-spaceship - this looks really nice, but maybe it should be a little bigger than it idunno, but there's the idea.

    What shape u want?

    the funniest search endine for 3d objects... you Draw (free hand) the object shape you want in 1-3 views and get some similar looking (!!!) models in different formats.

    i think this one is about the closest i could find.... not really anything like blue midgit, but as close as i can get to the picture i have in my mind. this one: <a href='http://shape.cs.princeton.edu/search/info.cgi?mid=26241&dataset=all&db_id=0&ip=194.117.133.180&search_id=29&rank=22' target='_blank'>here</a>

    obviously the center needs to be big enough to hold a CC and turrets but shouldnt exceed 368 X 368 dimensions, height doesnt matter too much.

    if anyone has skillz at prefabing, and wants to have a go at doing this for feature in my new level, read the first topic then look at the pic have a go then email me it <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    starbug is a little too complicated for hl methinks. but still clearly the best red dwarf ship.

    you know you can cheat, make it a model then put some simple brushework to hold the ship's shape and clip players.

    I startet modeling it.
    at first just outer shape without textures to see how to optimize the r_speeds and dimensions when you see it from outside.

    hmm... good idea, Remember Gunman Chronicles? the released HL mod from so many years ago? did that very thing, it worked perfectly too, i could hug you right now... <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Someone should make a Red Dwarf NS map... the brig area could make a nice hive, and the control room would make a great marine spawn.

    If I may suggest something. A Starcraft Dropship would look perfect, and is pretty wide too.

    I'll grab a pic so that you can see what i mean.
