SF Advocatus (Chimera derivate) problems
on: January 22, 2009, 02:24:28 am
I've modified the SF Chimera usage in my mods and hit problems with current modification;

1) I've added the shivan gattling from a Nukemod-release to model to represent a new primary array - but I cannot modify the bounding box and so I cannot place the cannon the way you can see it in the screenshot below

2) I need a way to texture that array - currently it uses the chimeras maps...

here we go... straigh from the WotW-page


EDIT:
That is how it supposed to look and how PSC2 won't let me save it; you clearly see the problems with the textures
the saveable version have those three additional arms further back where they look totally silly

EDIT2:
For those who are curious - the WotW-tech description:
Spoiler:
The SF Advocatus is second shivan fighter the GTVA has encountered which uses the beam-technology for its primary weapons. Unlike the Familiar Interceptor the Advocate - despite its small profile - has prooven to be a good heavy fighter which can destroy all allied cruiser-types in a matter of minutes.

Is... that even an appropriate texture for that model? The UV mapping looks messed up.

Should it be Advocatus (lawyer, lol) instead of Avocatus?

Reminds me of JAD with the lawsuit threats...

that's not the original - this new one was made by freespaceking (LINK TO FSMODS.NET) - but the mapping is fine except for the three arms on the front
