  1. I see where your going but I'm not a fan of not taking the fitness pool. Soft capped at 40% smash/leth, fire/cold, neg/eng with 5 foes will bring it to 45%. That is something I am looking into.

    Oh look at that...I just returned your edible arrangement I was going to surprise you with this holiday for a sack of DO's.
  3. Seems like you need a nice scented gingerbread sephora bubble bath with pine cone candles and dim golden lights to relax. Aaaaahhhhhh yes, relax.
  4. Started to add the stairs and walkways. The room now holds 4 tpers, all of which I indented inside the walls to give it that shuttle feel. The top deck is going to be a runway for the little vet flyers you can unlock. I think I am going to make some glass air shafts as well.
  5. I'm working on the outer shell. Still messing around with it, but I can start to picture it in my head. The outside part is going to be where the stars/space theme will be. Inside, I am going to have a glass walkway leading to a corner room hiding a TPer or just a hang out spot. I was thinking of putting some plants in the center where I am standing to give it that "good guy" feel.

    I have yet to close off the top part, so try tio picture it the best you can for now. I am going to make the walkway first which is outlined by the tile, then I will work on the stairs. My next update should have that done.
  6. B's post made me pee in your pool. Is that wrong?

    If you happen to get the tech teleporters to stack would you mind posting some pics? I'd rather use them as I can't stand the pink glow of the arcane ones.
    Yeah, im actually working on a design in MS paint for this. I tried to stack them before but it looked horrific. If the stacking wont work, I may have an alternative but I need to play around with the room first. I will post once Im satisfied with the initial layout.

    2 cents: the stars are distant enough that starfields look flat to our eyes (Star Trek notwithstanding). Are you putting the lights all on the far wall to produce the same effect?

    I see some mention of 'adding depth', but if we can see depth by moving around, that would ruin the effect, I'd think?

    (Taking notes for my own eventual rebuild.)
    I used the walls of cubicles to place lights every so often. So I could place three cubicles one behind another then place the lights on the walls. Then you delete the cubicles and the lights float in space (no pun intended).

    Send me a global tell @turbo_starr and I can show you how I did it.

    I used the small lights and placed them using the walls of the cubicles making sure to add depth as I went along.

    Perez, inspired by Turbo, I did use the star field concept with my porters. Not near as nice as Turbo's is gonna look, but here's a peek if you wanna look.

    I like your TP idea. I am going to do something similar though I don’t want to copy your exact design but it does look amazing. I was thinking of maybe stacking two teleporters on top of each other allowing for more star fields.

    I will post some pics tonight.

    The secret is stacking tables where the SG logo would be. I use the logo thats right underneath the hourglass in the SG window options because it takes up less glass space.
  15. Update:
    Still playing around with the lighting, but I added in some decorative untis to really give that "united" feel. I think I am going to go a bit brighter.

    Sewer Layout

    Here are the last screens of this room as I am knocking it down to make room for the Space Station View.





  17. I closed off the other side and am in the process of adding the other stars. I decided to make this a colaition room which I thought would be neat if we were looking out into space. The lighting is off for now as well as some stars to help me place objects. More to come!

    Smooth run I might add. Great job in putting it together hun. I know we got several people the Master badge from it. I am all for doing these master runs again to help out anyone looking for it.
  19. I wanted to formally welcome Jade and Az'rial in joining the leadership ranks of Riders. I have known each for more then 3 years and come to think of them as family. Kinda like your little brother who loves you, but accused you of pushing him into the lamp and breaking it which in reality he just fell over himself and smashed into the thing. Yeah, go a head and cry about it Joe, I’m never going to let that go.

    P.S, no one loves you, I broke your shot glass collection and…you’re adopted.

    So welcome again Jade and Az!
  20. At least two rads every master run, but Tough's cold defender helped more then I thought. I am going for a master ITF tonight. Willing to help those looking for the badge.

    Wanted to give a shout out to Cath for helping with the Master Kahn TF last night as well as Jade, Tough Old Nut and the others who escape my mind! Under 50 minutes WOOT!!!
  22. Continuing this project. I currently have 3 rooms to make with the space theme. I will post the progress as I go as always. All my other projects will be put on hold until completed.

    I am open to suggestions!
  23. Very creative and inventive. Such an original and inspiring.
