Fresh from Academy - hey there everyone

Greetings.
Probably my story is the same as many others here: had played FL back when it was first released, enjoyed it, and now after having serious problems “of feeling” with x3, I decided to visit my favorite space action games again. I flew a little bit wing commander, enjoyed the “feeling” of wasps - then switched to freespace 2 - but something there makes me sad,probably the UI in flight. Anyway, I also went and bought FL again, as I have lost mine.
I remembered that I like the story, but had a problem with FL, which was about the engines. as much as I know, every ship flies in the same speed. Now I know messing it up would cause balance and “formation” problems, but I don’t think thats something a serious attempt can’t solve.
I am a player. Yet if I had the chance, I would like to work on concepts and even sound acting if I could, so…. I don’t know if any modders need that kind of things, but I would be happy to help in these things. I am experienced, as I am an actor -but I must warn you english is not my main language. I am also not-bad with sketching and designs.
I found the site from a video in tube, which was excellent.
Anyway… it already feels good to be here.
Wind.

Welcome m8 ;D
ahh the X series… yes its pretty… and mega, but lacks the FL charm :-[
WC… hehe still great just for the cutscenes… something defiantly wrong with
Freespace2… i never really “felt” it either…We have a plugin now to alter every engines cruise… and hopefully more soon… (i dunno but there was
a discussion about it… ) differing engine speeds can be done easy as long as all ships
from that faction are in relative closeness as not to stuff formations up…& if ye a concept person… your going to love the new Hook’s for MP… one could go slightly batty
thinking up ways to use alot of the new features we now have at hand in FL…chow… and once agian… Welcome to TSP ;D

I’m pretty sure most large mods actually change the base engine speeds already, from like 40 to 120
