Here is the latest version of CDP's Puddle Jumper (last version was about 18 months ago) as seen in a few of the later SG-1 seasons and Stargate Atlantis.

This version is based on Dkealt and Dave975's Ancient Alteran Puddle Jumper from Bridge Commander however the Poly count has been drastically reduced to suit Armada2's gameplay. This model stands at a reasonable 1,000 polys instead of the massive 24,711 poly count of the BC version. Even for the poly count reduction the model is very detailed and looks great ingame.


For those of you who are not Stargate fans but like the look of this vessel then I suggest using it as a Romulan shuttlecraft. It is fast and highly manoeuvrable so it would fit in nicely as a spybot or drone for covering enemy territory. This vessel would definately look the part alongside a Talon during "cloak and dagger" missions. Smile (although the 3 Atlantians in the cockpit isn't very Romulan, so maybe not then Tongue)

Mod Usage:

This is Version 2 of my puddle jumper, Version two was original ment to be a poly reduced version of the bridge commander version created by By Dave975 and DKealt
E-Mail = daverussell_345@fsmail.net who very kindly gave me plermission to convert and release and use any of their material. the original model was 24,711 poly
From that model ive managed to get it down to just over 1,000 polys. The only bits of the model that are left are the shape of the drive pods, which ive reduced Heavily
every thing else ive rebuild from scratch using the original model as a scale for all the new parts as i rebuild them bit by bit.

The Textures are the same as those in Version 1.

um sorry bout that CDP but somehow I can't change it, the editing of that specific file takes ages before giving me a 404 error, apologies but when I can I'll change it

Nice, are there drones inside weapon pods? I can't see any :P


and, incase anyone was wondering, if i'm reading this correctly, and my memory of ancient hasn't faded, the first picture reads the following: left side: "hell x this is a puddle jump" Top cays "CDP", and bottom reads "Puddle Jumper " :-)

^^ lol thats impressive :-) i never expected anyone to translate it, thats made my day to know someone actualy took the time to look at my work and translate it :D one slight correction tho, where it says hell x it did say hello but the word went onto another line, but as i didn't expect anyone to be able to understand it i left it.


Thats really cool man :-)
