TIE Revenant Update v1.1 Released
May 15, 2020
The former TIE Reaper has been renamed TIE Revenant and Released with a few new goodies
It's been a while since I wanted to update this ship and with the VSD v2 done I finally got around to it. This is not an actual model update - that one's somewhere on my long toDo list but it's a stat- and info upgrade.
- First thing, I've changed the name. With Disney introducing a canon TIE Reaper Troop Transport in Rogue One, I wanted to keep this ship distinctive. And after some deliberation went for the name TIE Revenant.
- Secondly, I've added some material files, so, if you're using Blue_max' effects patch, you'll no longer have bump mapping on glass elements or cockpit screens.
- Thirdly, I've tweaked the ship's stats. While it's still faster than your average TIE fighter, I've reduced its speed from 120 to 110 MGLT and dialed its maneuverability down to be somewhat on par with that of an X-Wing.
- Next, to compensate for the nerfed stats, I've added a SLAM system, which will boost the fighter up to 220 MGLT (330 for short burst, if you transfer all power to engines)
- Finally, thanks to Darksaber you'll now be able to choose between two laser colors
- Green lasers / Purple Ions
- Black-white lasers / Purple Ions
That's all for now. Now go out there and have fun!
