Other thread titles :"The great devourer of modelers" or "That stupid thing "  "Bloody mess of tiles and gubbins" "Directly antagonistic in shape and colour to whomever tried to create a update it. Has like sixteen different connecting curves and shapes that makes out its silhouette" < (that one was too long)

So, here it is. a progress thread for the Demon.  :nervous:


Abit about the current state of the model, the textures are placeholders for the most part. The final model will not have tilemapping as it does now. Planning to incorporate the tiling into the main maps by baking and painting up the bits so it will seamlessly
stretch over the model.
Main mesh is subject to change especially around the engine area seeing its mostly unfinished.

So, first "THIS IS AWESOME POST" in this thread :D

Textures actually look pretty for just being placeholders.

If anyone can do it, you can  :yes:

Maybe, its a simple palette swap but again something for the very last.

When this gets finished I think the MediaVPs get bumped straight to 5.0 by default. :D

That was hilarious! :lol:
If anyone hasn't taken a look yet, you gotta zoom in so close that you see within the model.  Apparently Shivans are an aquatic species.

Well it's a lot more complicated than that. we're getting to a time where the original round of upgrades aren't holding up anymore. Shivan ships that come to mind are the Azrael, Dis, Asmodeus, Ravana, and Moloch too an extent. Many of the original upgrades for Terran ships are really not holding up now, especially the fighters.

Come to think of it I don't think the Myrmidon has ever gotten an upgrade.

I'm...pretty sure the Myrmidon is upgraded.  Or at least "upgraded" in the sense that word was used at the time.

Edit: Yeah it definitely is, I know for a fact that the retail Myrmidon didn't have the round modeled primary slots or engine thrusters.

Myrmidon is upgraded, but it's one of the oldest upgrades we have. If I remember correctly, it predates cockpit era. It's actually the only terran strikecraft without a cockpit. Ye, it needs new iteration badly...

And the working files are being uploaded to SVN nightly, right?

Side note, I don't think the Azrael or Mephisto have ever been touched.

This may be a sticking point, but I feel it should be clarified. One's role in FSU is separate from any models and upgrades they may choose to do. Often skills in asset creation qualify someone to be on the team, but that does not mean their work is subject to FSU oversight. As such, I do not require people to upload working files. They can choose to, however.
