Odyssey Skins..

elglass

So one of my characters flies the Tactical Odyssey Cruiser, however I don't use the Aquarius Console and would like to be able to use the skin from the 200,000 Fleet Credit version instead. If I were to buy that version would it unlock that skin for other Odyssey Cruisers or am I just stuck with an inoperable craft sticking in the bum of the ship? Same question goes for the Bortasque and Bortas, Fleet Star Cruiser to Mirror Assault Cruiser, etc etc.

Does owning the variant skin allow that variation on other ships?

To my knowledge there isn't any more skins for these ships

there isn't, a growing trend with the devs. I have suggested making Typhoon and different model skin for the odyssey

Okay, perhaps I was misunderstood. I want to know if I purchase the 200k fleetcredit Oddy, if I can use that skin on my Tac Oddy. I'm not interested in skins people are dreaming of. I'm asking about skins in the game for different versions of the same ship.

In short: nope you can't use the "Fleet" Skin on the C-Store ship (and vice versa)

that would be a nice option though to have the second shuttlebay instead of the USS buttplug

That's life for some people.

^This.

But I guess it's not easy to do. All the zen-odys can use the console for the USS buttplug and using that while having the "fleet" skin would probaly break something (animation, funcionality, etc..). So if they don't implement something that somehow would prevent us from using both the "fleet" skin and the the console I don't see a chance of getting it.

my guess is. They created the event odyssey before planning on the small craft, so the original didnt have it. and since the original oddy cannot use the consoles from the oddy set, that would be why you cannot use the prototype oddy skin on the c-store ones, and vice versa.

I agree. As for the issue of broken animation, if a player selects the aft, then the game should disable that VFX and simply either have the psudo-captain's yahct either warp in, or just appear beside the ship.

Here's a crazy idea, why not have it function just like every other console with visuals? Make the fleet skin default, but when you equip the console, bam, the texture and model switch?
