  1. So there's that game, called Medieval engineers. If you are familiar with Space Engineers (SE), you definitely know this one, since Medieval Engineers (ME) is SE's test ground. Most people don't like the game since its just a exact copy of SE with some additional features minus spaceships. It was not good when it was first released. Now I return to the game and find that it is much better than before. There are some glitches and crazy physics, but the performance is much better. Even my friends's 750ti can get 30 fps with acceptable graphic settings. For those who doesn't know the game yet, there are some useful links: http://www.medievalengineers.com/ http://store.steampowered.com/app/333950/Medieval_Engineers/ The reason I say that the game is waiting to be ponified, is that it is modder friendly. There were someone made a pony player character mod in SE, so it is possible that we can get a working pony character mod in ME. (Sadly the SE pony mod is gone, since it is broken in an update then the creator abandoned the project) In the MLP Equestria world, ponies' development level equals to Medieval age in human history, and the building style (especially Ponyville and Canterlot), social structure are somewhat similar. There are something else notable: The world in ME is an entire planet with different terrains and flora. We can find building place for canterlot, ponyville, everfree forest, crystal empire, Appleloosa or even Yakyakistan. Although the game can't handle water at the moment, there are Still Water mods in community workshop. What do you think about the game, are you interested in the idea of building a pony server in the game? please feel free to talk about the game in this thread :3
  2. Hello, everypony Sorry for inactivity. We are still working on the animation. We are going to switch from 3ds max to houdini, a better program for animation. We still need help from more animators. please contact me by email Humphrey.continuum@gmail.com if you are interested.
  3. So that's the design of a probe in the show. It's a sub-light spacecraft with a solar sail. The design is inspired by the Pioneer probe anomaly(mysterious deceleration which eventually explained by uneven heat distribution). The Probe is painted black with a shinny silver disk shape heat radiator around its rear end around a ion engine. It also installed with a solar sail with one side black and another side silver.
  4. So this is design of landing gear. It took me almost a month cuz the rigging is kinda tricky. Here it is... 1.mp4
  5. Sorry didn't notice your comment... So this is a episodic science fiction (something like star trek, stargate...) . The script is attached in the entry ( the fpdf.pdf file) The Story is about a group of scientists from an interstellar nation formed by descendants of Equestria and some furries. They construct an deep-space science vessel and travel thousands of light-years away looking for their home world, the planet of Equestria that lost in time.
  6. So we have finished the script for Episode 1: The lost world part 1. It is a 20 min scrpt. The longest thing I've ever written, even longer than my lab reports filled with diagrams and charts. That is the first half part of the Edge of time premiere. Since all studio members are male for now, we really need some female VAs. Sorry we can't offer you salaries, cuz I already bankrupted paying the software license bills. All works are voluntarily. The attached file is our current script. fpdf.pdf
  7. I don't want tol feel...

  8. Sorry for inactive. I'm got a summer job in a water treatment company, so I did not have much time working on this project. This is a Shuttle I designed a long time ago for the show. It is small craft based on shuttles in star trek. It is a small craft that only need one pony to operate. It can carry maximum 10 ponies. Also The script for the first episode is done 1/2 (about 20 mins). Currently I am working on detailed design for the bridge on ESV. Geodetic. Still progressing....
  9. welp, maybe... just I don't know much people that is willing to talk with me about the project...
  10. Yes, firiends, some of them are also close friends. We have 5 members including me at the moment, and 2 of them I really get close with, personaly. Working with really close friends some times makes it difficult to criticise their works cuz I am afraid of hurting their feelings. Maybe that is also why the progress is so slow as no one actually work really hard on it and I am afraid of asking them to work harder...
  11. Yeah, kinda. The whole Edge of Time project is a sci-fi show about the Starship ESV. Destiny and the scientists on board.
  12. Yeah, she is heavily shielded and can go into extreme enviroment. She can also land on planets. The ship will also be refitted as a part of a much larger ship, the ESV. Destiny (about 800m long) in the later Episodes^^
  13. The production of Edge of Time is still in preliminary stage. We just started the conceptual design of starship ESV. Geodetic. ESV. Geodetic is the first Science vessel ever built and commanded by the Equestria Institute of Science. She has 5 decks and is over 100 meters long. Several science labs are built in the ship. A huge Astrometric lab is place at her rear end. She is powered by a antimatter reactor. Also, holographic systems are built throughout the entire ship. The holo-emmiter also provides her ability to generate a holographic warp ring made of photons and force fields around the ship. This holographic warp drive provides her a moderate STL capability.
  14. This is part of one of our side tasks: to explain the Equestria with science. We actually ran a lot of CFD simulations to find the physical properties of Equestria world (The CFD stands for Computational Fluidic Dynamics). It is actually inspired by a post in the forums, we wish to digitalize the phenomenon in the show and derive a function to explain the Equestria. This video is just a short illustration. It is not accurate and is not used in our calculation. The data from real simulations are still being processed.
  15. 1. finish my science fiction 2. design and build a turo-shaft engine 3. finish my school 4. visit all my online friends 5. find a quiet place and die after finish all above
  16. Also I forgot Sivath's horn as always...
  17. Here is another one, with a short story: In Thunder's arm, Sivath fell asleep. For years, it was his best night. He dreamed of his future with Thunder, a life that was so real to him. It only lasted for a moment, before turning into a nightmare. His Borg implants started to grow wildly, consuming everything on its way, his beloved Thunder to the entire planet. Waking up from the nightmare, Sivath saw Thunders eyes looking at him. "Ya alright siv?" Thunder gently wiped away the tears on Sivath's face. "A light on your back started beeping a few minutes ago and... you started to cry... What was happening?" "They are coming. I can hear them. " Sivath stood up and pushed Thunder away. "You need to get out of here now, the Borg is coming for me." "The Borg?" "I told you before, the others like me. It's not the time to explain now, you have to go." "The Borg, they are coming?" "Yes, I they come to retrieve me, my signal dampening device must have failed and they detected me somehow... Sorry, I should have foreseen this... You must leave here at once." "But... I don't want to lose you again..." "No, just run away as you still can. I love you Thunder, but now it is the Borg that is coming... I can hear my queen calling me... We... Are... Borg...." Suddenly, Sivath raisesd his right hoof, and points his hoof plasma cannon at Thunder: "Unit identified, designation Thunder Flare, you and all of your kind shall be assimilated, Resistance is futile..." Thunder stared at his love, only taking a moment to glance behind himself. He wanted to cry. Not that he feared death, but that he may have just lost the one thing that still made his life worth living. He wouldn't be able to escape Sivath, he knew that. "Heh... is that so?" He gave a sad chuckle. This was his fate, huh? So be it, he'd spend his last moments with the one his life was meant to be with. "Resistance is futile, you and all of your kind on this planet shall be assimilated. " Sivath repeated, still aiming his hoof towards Thunder, having yet to pull the trigger on his beloved. "Ahh, so it is. If that's the case.." Thunder moved swiftly, taking Sivath's hoof and yanking him close. He held tight and raised their hooves to the sky, then wrapping his other hoof around Sivath's back somewhat. Staring deep into eyes of him lover, he asked what he believed would be his last request. "May I... have this dance?" [Story by Thunder Flare and Sivath Flare (me)]
  18. Human is controlling the manufacture process of the bots, so it won't be a problem. maybe robots will kill human for population control like human do to other species but since humans have been doing that for a long time. Robots created by humans will naturally borrow the population control logic for the greater good. So there is no place for human to complain about if this really happens.
  19. Another drawing... It's kind of my feeling for some old memories of mine... I'm haunted by those memories... It was nice but so nice that I feel soo depressed when they become only mempries. I'm trying to escape from them so I keep running from my old friends and new friends...
  20. About the logistic system I think you may add some checkpoints (some shops or people in settlements) on the map where players can pay them for transporting items to another checkpoint. Just use a function to calculate estimated arriving time and buffer it in an ascii file. When the player travels to a check point and trigger a dialogue with the NPC, the program can reads the buffered file and check if there is any item arrives at the check point at the moment. It won't increase much stress.
  21. Weight limit can balance the game difficulty in some way and in some situations it might be neccessary to keep it. Still it sucks some times for players. I think we can add some other methods to solve the problem brought along with the unlimited pocket, such as introducing a banking system, storage system and logistic systems.
  22. The rebellions are mostly caused by inhumane treatment. There is no reason to fear if people treat sentient AI properly. Data in Star Trek is an android yet he is no threat to the Enterprise crew. Also, there is absolutely no reason to fear a non sentient robot whose script is written under a series of classes with a bunch of IFs and FOR loops.
  23. It's not... It is a pony model with no mane or tail....I tried all settings won't work
