Amazing new UFOs tnarg!! I hope I can add all these UFO maps into my game without incompatibilities. I already have Luke's and Solarius's UFOs. Hopefully nothing bad happens.

One small thing I have noticed is that both this and Solarius UFOs have a ship called 'Fighter'. Maybe one could be called medium fighter or light fighter?

I have no problem changing the name, if there's a demand.

But if we want to compare these mods, it should go deeper than that. For example, what happens if my "light fighter" turns up to be stronger than this bigger fighter? I don't know if it's the case, but it's possible.

thanks.

I had what was a really good idea for this VLarge in my head but dose not look as good on screen.

I've got this one to finish off and a mid and large size one still to do,  for which I currently have no idea so suggestions welcome.

What about some kind of scanning ship that has a higher chance than the other ships of finding an xcom base?

A speedy private messenger craft all the way from Cydonia to an alien base commander? This craft is tiny and impossible to intercept, but it could crash land like a Roswell craft(rare) and if you find it, you'll gain info on locations of future alien bases. Not sure what else you can get off of it though.

About the scanner craft mentioned by animal, but instead of looking for an X-COM base, it will search for a suitable Alien Base. While searching, it could possibly spot your bases!! Maybe code it so that it appears in the continent 2 days before the alien base is settled in.

This topic has obviously been quiet for a long time. With hunter killers being a thing now I have need of a large fighter and I really liked TNARG's large fighter design (see previous pages). Unfortunately no MAP or RMP files were ever posted  :-[

So I've put it together myself and copied TNARG's design. Files attached.  :D

      mapDataSets:
        - BLANKS
        - U_EXT02
        - U_WALL02
        - U_PODS
        - U_BITS
        - UFOL83

I apologize, it is correct. I referred to a previous post, but your ufo is a big model, and the tileset list is the same of terror ship/battle ship.

Thanks for your efforts
