Looking for an Asteroid as mass driver ammunition
I'm currently looking for an asteroid model fitting a 72x39x40 box with not too many polies...

The size of the box are the measurements of a part of the Mass Driver subobject on the Centauri battlecruiser model from TBP, as it happens. And I don't need a high poly-count as I intent to use it as projectile possibly moving at about 1000 m/s if not faster...

I won't rescale the asteroids coming with TBP because I think they got too many polies for task...


The CR Mass Driver in TBP is a primary gun and somehow I don't like that at all, so I want to see if there isn't a better way to do this...

Suppose you could use the rocks I'm making in the duat thread. They are not done yet however.

You can take diaspora asteroids since they look more regular. If LOD0 has too many polies, you can use LOD1 or something.
Oh guys, use that [ url ][ img ][ /img ][ /url ] :/

Did you want a muzzle flash for that or do you have that base covered?
