Starbug was a very cool design, and about the only thing the yanks didn't ruin when they got ahold of the show, the 'updated' Red Dwarf itself looked hideous, as did the ED-209 style Blue Midget.

BTW, is it Starbug 1 or Starbug 2?
Kryten: 'I learned to fly in Starbug 2, I'm not used to the controls in Starbug 1'
Rimmer: 'They're exaclty the same'
Kryten: 'Yes, that's the problem'

all 8 seasons here :P

great show aint it

cant wait to see her ingame

Fallen_Warrior · « **Reply #12 on:** June 09, 2004, 06:38:07 am »

well i wouldnt really hold your breath for seeing her ingame the mesh is substandard and its from a first time modder but i coulndt do any better myself so no offence to the owner it does look good but theres not that much in commom with the star bug we know and love all thats there is the 3 spheres and 4 legs the feet are wrong the saterlite dishes dont exsist the thuster packets are the wrong size but if i were to send it to a more practised modder they could clean her up i will contact the owner seeking permission to refine the design and see what she says

Fallen_Warrior · « **Reply #14 on:** June 09, 2004, 06:03:52 pm »

well i have permission off the authour to have a go (or if someone wants to do it) at fleshing out the mesh and making it more cannon and worthy of getting it out to the public so if anyone wants a little project of getting StarBug ready for flight email me on fallen_warrior1@yahoo.co.uk and i will send a copy of the mod file the textures i have made and the read me which you can add your credit too. Any and all, newbies and old timers are welcome to have a go im will be leaving it up to a poll to decide which one gets released
we have a red dwarf floating around why not give it a little starbug so its not so lonely i will be making a more refined version of my textures to put on the the "upgraded" mesh so half the work is done all you need to do is sprose up the mesh and make it worthy
