Yes, you can, if I am understanding your question correctly. When I model my units, I make them to the same or close to the lengths of the vessels in meters. The only things I, re-size are the fighter units, and that can be done easily.
-
As of now, I don't think that it is possible to have transformations behave like that, mainly due to the fact, that the triggers for the animations are very limited. I am looking into ways to code around this problem, but so far have not had any success.

Update Made the Vajira, their own race. Decided to make a quick combat video of the Vajira (unbalanced) ambushing the Vaygr. Oh the slaughter, the carnage Video can be seen here (16Mb, 1min 48 secs) http://rapidshare.com/files/164863740/Vajira_Attack.avi.html

Update Red vajira (Vajira Soldier) is in game. (using placeholder textures)

Macross Frontier Mecha/Technology Thread IV *Read 1st Post*
shadow3393 replied to azrael's topic in Movies and TV Series
Upon further research, I have discovered that I was wrong, the red vajira's long tail is appears retractable. This can be seen in episode 1. However funny thing is the tail by its self is about 2 to 3 times the length of the total length of the vajira with the tail retracted. -
Update Red Vajira done Any critiques are welcome
-
Update Red Vajira is in process of being modeled Once I have the Vajira race and appropriate research, for UNS and Vajira, set up, I might start doing balancing tests. I will be looking for people to help me out with these tests. So if anybody is interested, please look into the .ship and .wepn documentation(Simple variable editing) at http://hw2wiki.net/wiki.hw2.info/VariableShip.html and http://hw2wiki.net/wiki.hw2.info/FunctionS...aponConfig.html. I expect the testers to be able make balancing modifications on their own.

Macross Frontier Mecha/Technology Thread IV *Read 1st Post*
shadow3393 replied to azrael's topic in Movies and TV Series
I don't think that is the case, because both versions are seen within milliseconds of each other, and they both are in space. Also the segmented ones have a significantly longer tails (like the yellow ones) and missing the tail spikes. -

While modeling the red vajira for my mod, I just noticed there are two types of red vajiras. One with a segmented tail(maybe early stage red one) and one with a whole solid tail. The former can be seen in episode 17, right after the skin shedding. The solid tail ones can also be seen in the same scene. Solid tail red vajira http://www.new-un-spacy.com/macrossf/vajra-large.htm --edit-- Stupid screen shot not working right. its about 16:22 in the gg sub -
Update Linked Try Again to a ship function. So it is feasible to have a Sound Force. However I don't plan on having the actual sound force, ie VF-19 Kai and the rest of sound force, in the mod.
-
I haven't looked into that part of coding yet, so I am not 100% sure it is feasible yet. However if I can do it, I will probably have different modules play different songs. Each will be effective against different types of enemies, ie Minmay for Zentrandi and Meltrandis, Firebomber for Varauta, and Sheryl/Ranka for Vajira. Also I will have Electronic Warfare units that will disrupt normal human communications.
-
Actually I had it other way before, I swear I must have watched the sequence like a 15 time, it seemed to open like that, on looking at it again, you are right. I guess I tired. --edit-- Animation fixed My plan for the vajira The yellow vajira(scouts) cost and build time are going to be comparable to the normal valks. The red vajira are going to be significantly more expensive and takes longer to build, but going to be as strong as a Northampton frigate. Yellow vajiras are going to be more effective (ie faster and have more hp) near red vajira. Red vajira are going to be more effective around vajira capital ships. These bonuses however can be jammed by certain UNS units. I actually have a plan to portray the vajira adaptation in game. through research increasing hp and changing armor classes. Can be countered UNS research and units.

Update Vajira Carrier retooled and finalized animation, still untextured
-
Yes, but right now it is always opens when its attacking. Trying to figure out how to make it so it only opens when it fires the main gun
-
Update Vajira Carrier is in game, however still need some tweaking, and proper texturing
-
Made the tail sorter and re-tweaked the fins. New comparison shots
-
I was talking about the smaller one, given the kanji from sketchley's first post. I think it translates to carrier but I am basing it off of what I know from Chinese.
-
I guess its a carrier then, because in Chinese, 母艦 means carrier, but the literal translation is mothership. Dunno if its the same in Japanese. But then again my Chinese is pretty rusty.
-
I thought this was the mothership http://www.new-un-spacy.com/macrossf/vajra-mothership.htm I approximated the new size from ep 25, when it was attacking the NMC in the beginning, assuming the CIC display had everything in scale. Side note: apparently Battle Galaxy was projecting Ranka Ree
-
I need an opinion on the approximate size of the vajira destroyer. Here is what I have now, compared to the NMC and the Uraga, both are to the length specs given from the Macross Mech Manual.
-
On the second attempt, I also got S rank, using a different strategy. Now I am on the 3rd mission in the Astate Starzone. Trying to figure out what the victory conditions are.
-
I just got the game and tried the FPA side of the campaign, and wow I got my ass kicked on the first mission. It was the Battle of Legzima. I was initially winning with no problems, but then Reinhardt, Kircheis, Mittermeyer and Ruenthal Fleets shows up, outnumbered me and the rest was not pretty. Poor Attenbough, he got wasted. I guess I am nowhere near Yang Wen Li's skill level.
-
Yes, its 825 for fighters 1650 for corvettes 3300 for frigates 3960 for capital ships 5776 for motherships However there is some flexiblity with capital ships.

Small Update Vajira scout Animated
-
Crap need to resize my vajira, after re-watching ep1 of frontier again. Thanks for the reminder of that scene. My second and third question still stands .
