In game terms I'd say the Orion. It's over 32 years old and can still whip anything its size or smaller. The firing arcs on that ship are pretty much 180 degrees for every turret which shows it was well designed. Compare that with the Hecate which has many of it's beams crippled by poor firing angles.

Do you mean best ship designed in the game, or best ship designer for the game (to create news ship or mod, etc)?

I have no idea about either myself, having not yet experienced the full glory of FS2 (yet!).

Sounds like he is asking about modelling programs. The answer is 3ds max. It costs insane amounts of money, however.

has anyone ever tried Bryce 5? i don't know if it will mod in a way convertable to POF, but its available for me easily, though 3DSMax is at the top of my list, but Bryce 5 would save $$...

k***a is warez?

i would think its only warez if i said anything about D/ling 3ds max from it (which i didnt) because you could use it to look at the pretty colors instead. But then you could use that for lots of other stuff. "No sir um im not possesing. The pocket is actualy its own residence owned by a bird." or "I was'nt smoking it i was getting rid of it the best way i knew how."

or over simplify something "i didnt hack the governement all i did was give you guys some 0's and 1's after that some of your 0s changed to ones" or "i didnt look at that porno site, i just simply rearanged little spots of light." and the list goes on

3ds max does kick ass tho : )

Absolutely none of that would even be a good defense in court where you'd have to prove your case beyond a reasonable doubt.

However, here you're on a private website. They can kick you just cause they don't like the look of you. Stop making silly justifications.
