Here is a set of UCGO skins for the XR2 Ravenstar and the XR5 Vanguard.


Many thanks to:

Douglas E. Beachy (dbeachy1),  Steve Tyler (Coolhand) and  Russell Hicks(Russ_H) for these wonderful spaceships.

Daniel Polli (DanSteph) for the UCGO experience.

PennyBlack for all the amazing work, especially the XR2 British Airlines skin, upon which the XR2 UCGO skin is *cough* based.

Pete S. (Interceptor), for motivating me to upload  the skins.

And a very big THANK YOU to Dr. Martin Schweiger[FONT=Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif].[/FONT]

To run the scenario included, you will need the XR2, the XR5

and the UCGO

Enjoy.

UPDATE: NEW skin for the XR5, more similar with the XR2 now.
A few tweaks on the XR2 skin.
If you want to keep the old ones, make sure you rename the UCGO folders in the Orbiter\Textures\Ravenstar (or Vanguard)\Skins\  directories. 
Also fixed dead Vanguard crew in the scenario.

ORANGE.!!!

Firstly, thankyou for the credit dgatsoulis.
Secondly, I see you like uniformity and that in mind, theres alot of promise with the XR series.
I downloaded the files and took a look, I see now that the XR5 is one blocky lady where the skin is concerned on the dds. I look forward to seeing any progress you make if you decide to progess with her.

Apart from a scenario, this is your first visual skin release and it's not bad.

What's next.?

First, thank you all for your comments.
Especially PennyBlack and Interceptor for the inspiration and motivation.

I must admit that i wasn't very happy with the way the XR5 turned out. So i took another shot at it. Here is the result:

BEFORE:

AFTER:

This way it's much more similar with the XR2 skin and now i'm quite happy with the result.

I will upload an update in a few minutes.

What's next.?

Well, for starters... an XR5 skin, worthy of [ame="http://vimeo.com/10850462"]this landing![/ame] (That's why i asked for a Dare Devil skin.)

The skin i had...looked like the Vanguard was a Chinese restaurant. (The flying dragon). :lol:

you know what would look nice too, a white body with that orange trim instead of grey.:thumbup:

I'm definatly going to tat with the XR5 skin now, but not for a few weeks.
Cos I go on HOLIDAY. One week climbing the hills in Wales :thumbup:

I haven't forgot but the DareDevil skin is on the XR2, just so you know. I've done one DD skin and want to do a less extreme skin to go with it. So I'll upload it by tomorrow night at the lastest.

As for the Vid, I don't think being your co-pilot is a good career move is it dgatsoulis.
