Space Station View

New Update. I have yet to add the space theme, so you have to use your imagination for now. These pictures are showing the right side of the room incluiding three porters and a few ships. I have yet to add the beacons and the steps leading in, but will add the space backdrop to all areas where you see glass when i'm done. It will be three levels as shown by the steps in an "L" formation. The first floor will house lockers for the pilots, the second floor will hold another tp unit on the left side of the room and the top floor houses the ships and views of space. The outside windows will show you space as the inside will have a giant window in the center part of the room like something out of star trek (or so I hope). This "new" layout should work and I am eager to finish!

Thanks for the update Turbo, glad your back up and running again. Looking real good!

Update: This is the second to last one. My next update should be finished. Have yet to add the tp units and some decoration items as well as the stars.

Wow. I got to see this in person last night. Thanks for the quick tour Turbo along with your advice. These pictures sure don't do the base justice and like most base building things just look that much better in person. If anyone has the chance you have to see this in person. Fantastic work Turbo!

To me it looks like an actual print screen from a mission. Love this so far and cant wait to see the final result!

Wouldn't a spaceship have a "turbolift" instead of stairs?

Hey Turbo what's your global? I'd love to check out your base sometime if that would be okay?

Excellent, I just noticed your SG floorplates you used at the porters, genius! I'd sure like a tour when your done. Thanks

I got to see the base yesterday first hand. It's immensely cool. Think "Justice League" in style.

Thanks for showing me around. There were so many times I was just ":O". As a novice base builder myself I know how long some of those things must have taken to build.

Absolutely amazing.

I'd be happy to show folks around the space station base as well as the Volcano base on Virtue assuming Turbo doesn't object (and I can't imagine he would). @Dr. Mind Bender is my global.

I saw this last night and he added the stars and a few decoration items. It's really looking good. I hope he posts pictures soon!

Okay, I give up, I've tinkered and my search-fu has failed....

How in the world are you making those stairs?


 

Posted

LOL Redbone I had the same issue. The stairs are actualy large florecent lights. You have to stack these down from the ceiling. If you don't know how check out stackers seminar video on you tube about it, he shows you exactly how to do it.
I think at times they are a pain but they look so good in a tech base.

Oh fyi be forwarned they are 500 a light so make sure you have enough $ before you start your project.

Update: Finally finished one of the TP rooms. I am still messing around with the placement of the beacons so other then that, it’s done. I added a locker room, central control room, ship repair station and a seating/study area. The space view can be seen from the central most part of the room and from the main control room on the third floor. It holds just under 950 placed units and 4 TP telepads with 8 beacons.

Next I will be working on the second space themed TP room with another 4-6 telepads. I am still working out the layout in my head and on paper (will post progress here of course).

I never would have thought of flourescent lights. No wonder that was makign me a bit batty trying to work out what they were.

You inspired me to do something in my base, but I have no idea how to do it, nor do I have the patience. LOL

Yea, every time I come back and look at the updates to Turbo's base, I get the urge to continue work on my base, but then I get into the editor and realize just how tedious the work really is..

You truly are an extremely gifted and patient architect, Turbo!

Back on track with the second TP room. I settled on a layout, the only thing is, that I am not adding the space theme. Instead I added 6 more TP units. I have a small space in the corner, and I was thinking of making that three levels of something. Perhaps a sleeping quarters? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

If I was putting something in the teleporter room, I would add a "ready room" with lockers and weapon racks, or perhaps a guard post.

If you got the inf to spare, a monitor room with a wall 'o beacons and computery stuff.

I wish there were decorative versions of the beacons that could be placed in any room.
