Could it be a Vivi/Rayden mix?

Or a Vivi/Vegeta mix?

Maybe FF/Street Fighter/DBZ.  The Hadoken was Ryu's and Ken's fireball thing, but the effect is too dragenballish.

And is that from 8-bit theater?

lets see one of dem guys flying around in fs2!

Hmmm... they are a bit, how shall we say, corpulent?

what i would like to know is how this thread turned from thorn saying he couldn't release the trade ship into a discussion of crappy fighting games...

[DragonClaw]

Well Eloran decided to post a picture on the forum that obviously captured everyone's attention... and the discussion swinged that way... uhh... yeah.

[elorran]

elorran.... DOUBLE 'R'!

And DragonClaw has a point.  Though that said, we haven't been seeing much traffic in here lately.

'grats Thorn Looking good, as always...

how many different file formats have you tried as intermediates in your conversions?

You may be aware there is one small shared texture area on the bentusi ship, lod0, just behind the top center of the horseshoe's front.  Dunno if that would cause a problem with a converter or not.  I really dont know much about how FS2 uses models or what type of models... Have you tried converting to a lightwave mesh first to split apart the model into objects based on the different materials?  Then perhaps convert to .obj or whatever format FS2 uses?

It has to be converted to .cob, Truespace format, to convert it to .pof. It converts fine to Truespace. Renders properly and everything. Add the turrets, convert it, open it in ModelView, and either it crashes, or it looks gimped... I cant see it working by any way short of rebuilding it from scratch...

Maybe it's the Attack of the -- INVERTED TEXTURES!!!

I used to have the same problem when I was converting Hellbender models into Freespace 2 POF format.

By the way, can you give me an actual list of the ships that you haven't converted yet?  The site doesn't help that much.

What this campaign needs is ORGANIZATION!  I could start designing the first Cataclysm mission for ya' - FREESPACE STYLE!
