Venator Class Republic Attack Cruiser

[Ras 74]

This is an awesome MOC Polo and a great way to introduce yourself as a great MOC´er.

It looks very good and accurate. Great idea to use the ISD´s greebles to the Venetor.

Hm...Is there a pdf version of it? All I see is the CAD model of these (MLCAD) in both files.

Also, is one file "better" than the other? Thanks

hm...do you know the dif between 2 files? i am not sure why you posted 2 files then...

[AoNZ]

Wow!

The greebles are great and I love the engines.

Nice huge moc.

This is not me who posted the instruction. ;)

It is Polo.

Take the latest version. It should be ok.

Here is my Venator with the sticker (so, now it is 100% finished) :

And I redid the sticker of the AT-TE.

[Enilder]

wow...

my only other questions is is there more effective way to look at them in MLCAD? It's quite hard to visualize what's going on with everything preassembled together. Also, it says I am missing parts. Do I just download updated files from MLCAD? I installed it 2 months ago and it says I am missing parts. Thanks

In each files (the tail, the left wing, etc...), you have to switch off all the parts. Then, you switch on them step by step, with the light icon. :)

For the missing parts, look at peeron, and try to find the .dat file in the upper left hand corner.

That is the best Venator I have ever seen!

[Legostein]

Hello!

I am really impressed by your creation! It's build in a similar style like the UCS Imperial Star Destroyer from what I can see, but if TLC released an official UCS Venator it would not be able to compete with yours I guess. The heavy turbolaser cannon turrets are very well shaped out, and also the side hangar doors in the trench. An outstanding creation!

Cheers,

You have done a superb job Anio.

I gave up in the end although i didnt want to. MLCAD is not available for Mac and I downloaded LDView instead. But that seemed a bit complicated to me to use. All I could see was the finished version of each part so I couldnt make up which brick went where. Shame coz I was really looking forward to building this one.

Polo did a great job ! ;)

MLCAD is not available for Mac

I'm a bit surprised.

Is there anybody to confirm that ?

[Enilder]

another question...sorry...has any of your bricks bent due to the weight? i know other big UCS models suffer from the weight. let us know! thanks!

I emailed the website today and the creators explained that it is made to run on Windows only.

you know you can just download windows from pirate site and install...so many illegal OS available online.

if this is an inappropriate comment, please delete modderators.

[legolandia]

Thank you for the suggestion but the only reason I moved to Mac was to get away from Windows really. I'd rather wait until a PDF version of instructions for a Venator comes out than install Windows again. I dont mean to sound big headed or anything but it's just a personal choice.
