SpaceCraft Control 7.1

[ipaqmaster]

fuck the superman. this goes from 0 to 800 in about 2 seconds. XD

[nokillnando]

i would love if 7.1 should be remade in E2 becuz by what looks like in the vid its way simple and allows multiple props

[DJXI]

The video presentation of the latest version is out, check the description!

[12321599]

the song was gay but the rest cool

[Digolgrin]

What if we have this type of tech when humanity builds the first fighters and bombers that can leave Earth's atmosphere?

[novantha1]

i can easily imagine that if there was a mothership war on spacebuild, they would use these as shuttlecraft...just add a bomb to it, and you have a bomber/dogfighter, would be awesome

[Rall707]

Thats is some pretty damn epic thruster work...

[mdplyr442]

damm i used this as a figther once and dude the agilty on it is amazing

[IKILLFRFN]

woow cool

[glmcdona21]

Very impressive fighter! I love the basic thruster method.

[lufighter]

Where do u get Life Support

[JakesterVideo]

lol i love how your getting 1000 speed on that. my spaceship only gets around 50 mph and i don't know how far you can get in space that fast before you die XD

[SeXeHRD]

Ohhhh duuuude... thats just tooo cool :))

[wulfblast]

that looks amazing and id love to fly it,looks fun to fly.:P

[yelby2]

GIVE ME I MUST HAVE IT

[fulgrim456]

it worked stop the fucking presses

[Napoleum]

nice ship, i couldn't fly so good... Advanced Gyropod?

[Deliphin11]

Man... if my comp could run spacebuild without crashing, i would definitly try to build this.

[DJXI]

@Deliphin11 I strongly suggest you to use the Physics Performance Settings addon and remove props' gravity instead of using spacebuild.

[Deliphin11]

@DJXI I don't use Spacebuild, i know it will crash since all it takes is going on cs_office and spawning like 4 things.

[Deliphin11]

@DJXI LOL i don't have the spacebuild addon, but i went on my only spacebuild server (which idk how i got) and i ran it with no lag! it crashed after a few sec lookin at the asteroids from a distance, but damn!

[Roymond911]

@DJXI hey how did u get joystick to work

[Deliphin11]

@DJXI recently i got more ram on my comp, i can run spacebuild maps! :D I haven't tried going out of the planet on gm_newworlds yet (the only map i tried so far, also likely the one I'll use the most because of the asteroids.)

[bovb902]

@DJXI ok since when is this song called bird of prey 0_o

[MrCaioable]

@DJXI I WANT IT!

[BrianBear24]

@DJXI Can i have it's EPIC

[Deliphin11]

@DJXI hey, i have an awesome new computer that never lags, I can play GMod with Spacebuild, i've never lagged before someone else yet. :D So anyway, do you still have this old version? I like it more than the new eternal silence model using one.

[DJXI]

@Deliphin11 Sorry I don't have it anymore. Nevertheless, you can use SpaceCraft Control 13 on any model.

[blorgyboy]

make a new video demonstrating the updates you've made to this i would love to see that

[DJXI]

@blorgyboy It would look pretty much the same, but without any thrusters. Things got way simpler with E2s.

[NarrowDipShit]

DAMN BEST GMOD FIGHTER IN FU**ING HISTORY MAN!!!! or its just me flipping out over EVRYTHING THERE IS TO LEARN ON GMOD!!!!!! F**K!

great job man.... long since i`ve seen A DOGFIGHTING WONDER FROM HEAVEN!!!!!

FAV; THUMBS UP AND WATCH IT 5 TIMES

[blorgyboy]

@NarrowDipShit agreed good sir you simplay must tell me what institution of higher learning you attended as a young chap for a man of your caliber must simply have gone to some notable institution.

[HitmanOnDrugs]

Hey DJXI, I (we) would like to see the expression gate you used to make this.

I really need this (joystick controlled spaceshift) but I can't make this expression gate, I tried many things (PID controller etc) but it never fly as I want..

Thanks.

[DJXI]

@HitmanOnDrugs This video is quite old and the code changed quite a lot since Expressions got replaced by E2. But basically, you want to prevent your ship from translating / rotating when you're not touching the controls. The simplest way is to apply a force proportional and opposite to the ship's velocity vector. It gives you a force expression that looks like this:

F=A*Controls-B*speed, where A and B are constants.

Don't forget to do this for both translation and rotation.

[nukemanful1]

OMG T HIS IS SO COOL I CANT BE LIVE IT

[Eviangya]

This is an awsome ship. I wouldnt change a thing. Except for turning the thrusters and blue fire invisible (thats just my style) lol

Very rare to see an original ship these days. (Lol now all you see are Hover-Fails and Gyro-Pods). Haha I LOVE THIS SHIP

[Yummtheman]

What an awesome ship. You don't have any tutorials do you?

[PuKiNAt0R335]

is this ship just made out of shuttles? and how do you make those red beams?

[NIGHTEHAWK]

damn! nice!

[googleytastic]

Great design, but it would look a lot better without thruster effects.

[bigfleabag]

Great design. Kudos.

[SgtJp654]

that is outfuckingstanding man, really really good, the only other things ive seen fly like that are all shuttlemod based which means no guns D: but that it just awesome bud

[Razura13]

awesome cinematography, Awesome music, Awesome craft.

you get Awesome/10

[hypersloth123qwe]

woah... you should post the adv dupes of this somewhere... it looks great :)

[MetalGearFTW]

Theres a console command that allows you to change the LS system models into chips. Its pretty nice. You should implement it into your ship. As a reward for making an epic ship, Ill PM you the code.

[Draconic74]

Thats the most maneuverable ship- no, vehicle- I have ever seen in Gmod.

[preston5in]

Now put some Guns on that badboy and dare someone to say its gay

[cheesecurd11]

are the planets actually spheres? or are they flat with a skin around them?

[n0cturni]

Flat with a skin around them.

[cheesecurd11]

@n0cturni thanks!

[destructoin101]

Just flat with a skin around them.

[ArmouredShadowForce]

never could understand expression gates...

[timelordcreation]

how depressing is that song but anyway dude thats bloody brilliant

[jonthebest334]

what are the controls for standard spacebuild ships? i know shift = faster. alt = slower/backwards. space = dock/undock. w = up. s = down. a = tilt left. d = tilt right but is there any control to just turn left/right not tilt because its really hard to get used to the jet - like controls

[Xecuter274]

@jonthebest334 really? i find it easy to get used to.

[jonthebest334]

i got used to it now. only took a bit of practice on a wired F16 my friend made and i was off

[HandiAce]

Amazing what people make in these mods. I gotta join a server where people are making serious things like this!

[MrCarltron]

shouldn't turret guns be mounted on turrets? its not a turret if it only shoots forwards...

[ZSaberToothTigerZ]

Why does 12 year old fools play 16 + games anyway? it should be like an drug store (game store) when u go trought with an 16+ game and ur not 16+ u can get arrested

[WorldOfHurt101]

Parents have different values as the rating system. Seriously, getting arrested for trying to buy a game? That is nonsense!

[gameboxfreak]

@WorldOfHurt101

if he's talking about mingebags I agree that they should piss off, but getting arrested for that's total bullshit

[rome8800]

ZSaberToothTigerZ, how old are you then? 11?

[ArmouredShadowForce]

that's some incredible control, how did you get it to land so easy

[Pyroney]

Is there a download for the ship!? I love it :P

[lukas00754]

epic fail

[DarkRai355]

how did you make it joystic-controlled? Can you teach me plz, cuz i`m gonna really need it soon

[Macz338]

That song might be nice if that guy would shut up

[OMGZORS1]

ANNOYING SONG!!!!!

bird of my ass

[ZombiePotatoSalad]

@OMGZORS1 DO NOT INSULT THE DOORS!

[lolmaster42]

Vector thrusters used?

[Koroush51]

I wish i still had gmod.

[lolmaster42]

You should,it is an epic game,just like crysis is :D

[schwammi815]

:D your right

[PhyOSPhyOS]

Buy it.

[alyl603]

i liked the craft but why did u put this cind of music?

[killgore468]

im just not so sure of the song i've never heard it before i died like the people on metalocolips show when every ones head exploded

[shadowtube567]

@killgore468 its called "Metalcalypse" not "metalocolips".

[killgore468]

thanks for correcting me for every knows i got that one wrong and i didn't care to spell correctly at the time.

[Hero10Kid]

where can you get this game or what ever this is

[killgore468]

ill save the person his typing skillz: ok dude so this i gmod you probly get that it's a sandbox game you need a source engine game like half life 2 or some other games then you go on steam and get gmod 10 costs like $10 but obviously it's worth it =)

[UltimateTurtorials]

You mean garrys mod? Steam

[NickKane890]

.....you dont know what.......gmod is??????

[NickKane890]

it's basically a mod of Half-life 2, which in my opinion is one of the best games ever. In gmod you can do WHATEVER you want and its really fun i recommend you get both.

[MooGoesTheDolphin]

dont tell people !!! we dont want 3 year old players!

[boink96]

omgz cool! 5/5

[FredNedson]

"bird of gay!" lol

[P0intlessPers0n]

Good ship... is he singing about a bird and a train? or drain?

[WorldOfHurt101]

Lol, its a bird. XD train of prey.

[R0ADR4GE]

Anyone know a good joystick module tutorial? Thanks

[DHGameStudios]

Dude, that's bloody impressive! 5/5 Nice work! :D

[dinoman32]

speed looks like a tme machine

[Dr2g0nFly]

I wish I'd have a ship like that

[stuvucsiz]

how much does garry's mod 11 cost?

[phuwnaren]

9. 99 Euro on Steam

[overlordshimra]

LOVE the expression... can I get a copy?

[dogsoldier111]

Actually another comments has it got LS(life support) If so how did you get it to fit onto something that small? If not why not?

[DJXI]

yes it has life support. it's only a small resource cache at the rear of the ship.

[Cyndrakkos]

@DJXI So not enough resources to survive an extended trip in space, but good for planet-station-planet hops?

[DJXI]

@Cyndrakkos exactly

[dragefyr]

@DJXI Are you planning on a release? Im EAGER to try this out! Its so rare to see something like this!

[DJXI]

@dragefyr This concept had quite a lot of updates since this video, but nothing worth an upload in istself.

[dragefyr]

@DJXI Sounds interesting, are you able to upload a video of it?

Also, are you interested in spacebulding together? Im a bit of a newcomer, but its fun to spacebuild.

[dogsoldier111]

2. Questions

1.How did you make that

2.how do you use the joystick with Garry's mod ?

[DJXI]

I used tow addons: Wiremod to set the thruster's power and Joystick module to get joystick values.

[guthixking6]

I cant figure out how to use the joystick can anyone help?

[vlaserosjr]

nice ship bad song

[UnstableFailureX]

I can't wait to get my new PC and get Gmod...

So much shit to do...xDDD

[TheMacDudeGuy]

the first part of that song makes me want to kill someone. Awesome ship.

[guthixking6]

lol

[Jack101f]

nice on

[dracotonisamond]

your fighter is made of pure win. bravo *bows*

[DJXI]

solarsystem. The only problem is that SB3 broke it.

[stompee500]

the problem with sb3 is that its too small..the planets should be further apart and the whole map should be larger.

[DETH19952]

first u need to make a tut or adv dup, second WHAT SONG IS THAT ITS BEEN STUCK IN MY EFFIN hEAD FOR ALMOST 2 MONTHS

[DJXI]

This spacecraft is very old, it would be useless to make a tutorial for it. But Maybe I'll do one for one of the newer version. Anyway, the song is: Fat Boy Slim - Bird of Prey.

[DETH19952]

gooniverse or new worlds u need to dl it

[thecRash90]

nice job!! ;)

[barraki150]

what is the name of the guns u use on thad spacecraft?

[DJXI]

Those are normal turrets.

[Ccsteph22]

goes up to 2000 speed XD

[Johnsonelite]

ive been dreaming about a fighter like that

i didnt think it possible O.o omg 5 star

[DaBoxMonsta]

Jesus, could I get an Adv. Dupe of that? :O

[R0ADR4GE]

What tool do you use to get that trail behind it??

[DETH19952]

the trail tool on the thrusters

[R0ADR4GE]

Is that a wire ship? O.o

[BLANKMEMORYDATA]

What is this Spacebuild? Excuse me for being a noob lol

[AwakenedMusic]

its like gmod but a space version that can be downloaded and played it has its own stuff..i heard its fun :)

[rwarrawr]

Jesus Christ, how did you make that ship?

I don't want the ship I just want to be able to make something like that.

[joesahoe09]

3:00 that was awesome. i wish i had hl2 so i could do this

[latenfroob]

how you mkae the first ship?

[DJXI]

actually, the whole video is about one single ship.

[ingarsss]

0:08 You should add some life pods.

[childofreletivity]

were can you buy Garry's mod on steam

[jango2011]

ok thats just cool

can you send me a LM for that?

the names Jango Werefox

[Blaylock1988]

Do you no grav any of it?

[Blaylock1988]

I mean for in planet flight**

[DJXI]

I didn't, the ship has its own hover thrusters to land and take off.

[quangphangbang]

does the joystick module come with wire?

[DJXI]

no, unfortunately.

[paperninjathefirst]

what are those lasers following it?

[LaserBeamRay]

trails?

[tolomo89]

and how abuot life support ?

no air or cooler or energy support??

[Rohan2300]

now my big question is...how did you do that external cam? I'm guessing source-recorder. but thats only one of my possibilities...

I build fighters like this one too, albiet slightly less impressive. my system works better for larger ships.I can't perform that manuever at 2:50 for example, stabilisers react too fast for that. are you compensating for your XYZ motion? looks like just the PYR stuff. my Steamfriends is: Ruadhan :add me :)

[imjusttryin]

two words : camera tool

just weld it to the ship

as for 2:50 i have no idea

[Rohan2300]

I know about the camera tool, it can't move like that. if he welded it, it'd move much more rigidly, this is moving more or less independantly from the ship, following it, but not welded.

best I can think of, is that it could be a camera set to follow the ship, and on an elastic or something. but I think source recorder looks more likely.

[Rohan2300]

I'm thinking particularly of 1.07 - 1.26

[Unclevertitle]

1:07 - 1:26

Looks like he had a separate platform with the camera tracking his ship. He seems to be outrunning the camera a bit. I say platform because I don't think it was stationary unless he slowed down the speed of the craft or perhaps the video for that particular shot.

2:50

Depends on the strength of your stabilizing thrusters and (at least in the way I did it) the "Damping interval." For me I set it to restore an angular velocity between 10 and -10 allowing some drift.

[Rohan2300]

hm, well, my fighters have demonstrated similar behaviour when I reduce the strength on the XYZ stabilisation, so if I had to guess its like that. with more powerful stabilisers on the Angular velocity. so you build ships like this too? we should meet up or something and compare notes.

[Unclevertitle]

My ship's still under development and unfortunately I can only work on it every few weekends or so. It doesn't even fly yet actually... 

Or rather my expression gate is still under development. I still don't know how to do mouse control.

But sure. I don't have any instant messenger or anything but PMs work fine as I check Youtube fairly often.

My current goal is VTOL and I've got a few ideas.

[Rohan2300]

mouse control is a pain in the butt :P still working on that stuff myself, I just use a pod controller, WASD for pitch and roll, Shift and Space for yaw control, Mouse1 and 2 for forwards and reverse.

works fine for me. VTOL I had a little difficulty with, when I fit it in it tends to be too harsh, so it simply forces the ship to move at the angles of the terrain below at a set height. my stabilisers are usually powerful enough that they hold the ship against gravity well enough to just fly.

[SimmanGodz]

couldn't vector thrusters work? I'm still really fresh to wire so I wouldn't know...just a guess.

[Rohan2300]

vector stabilisers are a bitch to work with :P but if you know the math, sure, its easier to set up and requires less parts. so more stable.

I suck with vectors though, I'd rather use standard wire thrusters.

[DJXI]

a vector thruster could prevent the ship from drifting, but not from rotating. It's also more realistic with normal thrusters in my opinion. Anyway, with the new E2's applyForce feature, I don't have any thrusters left on my ship.

[Rohan2300]

was also mainly thinking along the lines of talking on steam :P my account name is Ruadhan.

[Unclevertitle]

Right that would make more sense. Mine's Unclevertitle. I tend to be consistent, though I would rather both Youtube and Steam to accept spaces.

[megarah1]

ya know it would look better without those small jet things firing every time you move... it makes the ship look like it belongs on earth more then ever but still good job (i dont own Gmod so dont ask me to do any better or mock me)

[GreatDane1993]

i need someone to make a tutorial on how to make a spaceship like this, because i don't get all this wire stuff at all

[jdog3552]

im going to get this i will love this game and that is a sweet ship!!!!

[SPARTAN158x]

this is awesome! it reminds me of the vipers from battlestar galactica

[ZigZaggityWW]

That's pretty sweet! I've been working on some thruster ships lately but I SUCK on making them look all pretty. haha

[deathrider368]

my wired thruster some how dont work can u help me:s

[blorgyboy]

oh it still looks cool tho

[blorgyboy]

OMG best ship ever 5stars for you and also that big cruiser was cool think you could show that too? =D

[DJXI]

The cruiser is just 3 props frozen in space, nothing special about it.

[Rohan2300]

I've got a system with similar functionality, eight thrusters, a pair of expressions and a Speedometer is all I need. oh and a advanced pod controller or numpad inputs. what are you using?

[everseenone]

wel he says he using a joystick so i think he lockt some keys to the joystick to control

[xmodalloy]

i found, what i think is, your version 7.2 on some server, however, the 7.1 is many times better, 5 STARS!

[kalphiteownage]

ive never seen a ship as accurate as yours.

really nice

[Aevx]

Man, you took my wiring to a whole new level xD i took the expression and fiddled with it for a few weeks, replicating it. now, finally, i know exactly how it works xD

i'm making one of these on my own now O_O

and this, kind sire, is by far the most beautiful space stabilisation system in existence.

[edito777]

5 stars and a favourite for you :D This obviously took you some effort.

[DJXI]

thanks for the stars. For the expression, if you know the basics, I suggest that you use a speedometer with "split xyz" and "angular velocity" options on. this and the joystick output will give you the inputs you'll need for the expression. If you don't know about expressions, you'd better see on the official wiremod forums.

[DJXI]

You need an expression gate
