PLEASE tell me there's an A-Wing!;)

[Grey Wolf]

Is there an A-Wing? If there isn't, I'll start making one. I'm really starting to hate the Z-95....

[Galemp]

An A-Wing would be great. We actually need someone to do Mon Cal ships, preferably someone who likes doing Vasudans as they would be more comfortable with curves and organics.

[KARMA]

this is my personal wishlist;)

minimum ships to have a decent conversion:
tf (done)
ti(done)
ta(in progress)
td (done)
gunboat (or tb)
xwing(in progress)
z95( in progress)
awing
ywing (or bwing)(needs to be redone)
yt1300
assault transport
corellian corvette
freighter
one tipe of container
one tipe of starbase
one tipe of mine
isd(needs to be partially redone)
interdictor
ssd
deathstar
calamari cruiser
nebulon b
(nebulon a done)

additionals to make a GREAT job:
tb
bw
r41
twing
tx1(vaders tie)
mill falcon(yt1300modified)
muurian transport
cuv (reload/repair ship)
cargo ship
modified corv
winged modified corv

modified nebulon b
dreadnought
star cruiser
escort carrier
light calamari cruiser
winged calamari cruiser (liberty)
vsd
tibanna refinery
cloud city
shipyard
more starbases
more containers
more mines

well obviously this doesn't mean that i plan to have all these ships in the conversion..i should be crazy;)

Just out of curiousity, does the Imperator in the screenshots have its weapons? Because I saw that the 8 huge turrets of the dorsal were just black textures...

[Killfrenzy]

If anyone does an MC-90 Mon Calamari cruiser accurately, I will love them forever! :D:D

[Grey Wolf]

I'm starting on the A-Wing. Searching for a hi-poly model for reference....

[Fineus]

It might not be canon but there's a great high-poly a the XWA Upgrade project:

http://www.planetquake.com/wworkshop/vehicule03.html

but i don't know about licence...i think they lets you use their models (they also offers to make personalized models by request) , but at least a  request via mail would be fair

there also are yw and bw in the site

if the models works directly (as they should do if well done- as it seems) there would be not much need to make a completely new model by scratch, just to adapt-complete those...if well done....never tested em...


edit:well i've sent a mail to authors, lets see the response:)

[Grey Wolf]

The B-Wing and Y-Wing look nice if they let you use them. The A-Wing won't d/load though...

It only has about a dozen turrets an they're not in the right places. That ISD is pretty old, dating back to FS1. It needs work; generally poly-expanded, re-turreted, resized, and it could use destroyable sub-object scanner domes, as well.

[Grey Wolf]

From this pic that Karma posted, the X-Wing is looking pretty good:

[Kitsune]

The Star Destroyer in the nebulae looks damn sweet!

But guys I have a question for you all concerning the Death Star...

If it's too big fo you to fly around (And it is...)  Why not model only the hemisphere that faces the game area and make the thing where it can't turn or move at all?

Granted, having a death star that takes up half the map and slowly fly it's way across the rest, squashing all other ships into the far bounding box would be a horrible way to run a mission.

But at any rate, I have a model of the Milennium Falcon, the only problem is it's about 10 different subobjects or more and around 200,000 polies!  (Even has transparent canopy with Han Solo in there.)

I've tried running it through polychop and optimize but my poor system can't handle running that a lot.

Can't remember where I found it exactly, but I know I did a google for "free 3ds max ships".


Oh, and the Imperator is supposed to have more than 12 turrets...
6 Mega Turbo-Laser Cannons  (Long range anti-cap, mounted on top, 3 per side)
2 Quadruple Mount Heavy Turbo-Laser Cannons (Long range anti-cap, each one is mounted on the side of the 'trench' of the ship)  
9 Defensive Turbolaser Turrets (Medium-Range General purpose, 3 in front of superstructure in a line, four underneath and to the rear, 2 near fighterbays,)
2 Mega Ion Cannons (Long range anti-cap, 4th in the series of the large turrets on top of the ship on either side of the superstructure)
30  60mm Point defence Laser turrets  (anti-fighter/missle, even distribution)
20  80mm Point defence Ion cannons  (anti-fighter/missle, even distribution)
4 Capital sized Proton torpedo batteries  (General purpose, two on each side in the 'trench', one close to the front, other furhter back near the midships.)

Ion cannons are shield and subsystem only damage, like the SDG akheton or other weapons.  For taking prisoners and stuff like that.

[Black Wolf]

Do you guys need any non model help? I can make ship icons (shield, interface and briefing) and interface art if you want them.

[Grey Wolf]

Actually, I figured they'd use the tag from the D-Missile in FS1 for the Ion Cannons.

good news, i've just got reply by authors and they let use em in the way we prefer...
i can't d/l the aw too so i'll ask it via mail
oh and stargunner, you surely can help with tables if you want
we simply have to organize better our work, i've just ask to get hosted by hlp, so to don't spam on this forum with sw posts anymore, as soon as we will have a forum i'm confident we will be able to organize better our efforts

I was bored and messing with the Y-wing model and came up with the pic in the attachment. Planning on mounting guns on the port and starboard engines.

[Grey Wolf]

Bleh, forgot the attachment on the other post.
