Hyperion HD

Description
Don't get confused, this isn't a high-definition model of Hyperion what's in the game, it's original Hyperion model, used in very early stages of BNG developlment. Since the visual aspect of the game has changed and the model was replaced to the lowpoly version, this one was given a "HD" nickname to it, just to make sure.

This is nice!

Is there any chance that other HD Versions of the current ship roster could be made? Like, an NX2000 HD?

Thanks for the feedback. The problems are due to the ship being very old and imported in an old version of the game.
I should get to fixing it.

Feedback for this particular ship: It seems to be off on the physics, in that it sits too high, as if it's sitting on top of a second invisible craft. This became evident while performing a barrel roll, where the roll is off-center, which would be consistent with the above description. Not sure if it's just in 2280 mode, but it's a pity, because the model is really nice. I just can't use it in this state.

And there I go looking at C.Y.G.O.N and being annoyed because this honestly looks quite like it
>:(

@ATH-YF - I'm currently working on 2301 Hyperion. You can watch my progress on Discord @ #ballistic-customships. You can also see the current version here: https://skfb.ly/6tATo

Dude consider doing more because you have nice skills.

@ATH-YF Thanks. I know about the details which are not really that great. It's very old model when I didn't know how to design things really properly and it wasn't made as game-ready, but it eventually happened to be in game, so it's part of BNG's history, that's why I chose to upload it here.

There is major ship optimisation that can still happen there.

Cockpit for example is not supposed to have shuch extruded edges (concern of aerodinamism), the separated sections in it could be kept but the whole surface can be made smoother.
(you can think of Rolex type of accuracy).

The main grey engine at the center have several small details witch end up hidden because of the textures, mesh detail there could be saved to help the game play fps if needed.

In the back side there are several sub divisions that "eat space" for the main 2 exaust.
