More people here seemed to care than I thought, so I'm throwing this thread here too.

I've updated the Tribes Ascend Spinfusor Script. This version now shows your ammo count. I had to use some shaky footage from camcorders and stuff, but you can barely notice.

It does need to be scaled down a bit. The first tribes:ascend video they released it practically was this big.. the newer videos out from PAX however you can see they actually modified it to have a smaller footprint.

As before, you can scale up the spinfusor. Here's the maximum scale:

I'll put work into making this script more accurate to the source material when Hi-Rez puts work into making Tribes Ascend more accurate to the source material.

so what's the point of the spinfusor spinning before it's fired

it needs to be spinning to have stability/accuracy. if it didn't spin it would just shoot out some place randomly and with not as much impact force or speed.

probably. >:3

but why does it have to use all that energy to keep it spinning when it could just put the spin on it as it's firing
it seems like whatever is propelling the disk would slow the spin down anyways

then we could ahve more energy to capture flags and take them to our base and stuff

Could also be electromagnets. If you look at the disc, it's not being held and spun by something-it's sort of suspended there while spinning. Maybe the spinfusor is actually a sort of gauss rifle.

or a frisbee and its the static electricity that is allowing it to hoover

I'm pretty sure the tribes 2 manual explains why the stormhammer shots spin.
