Update list:

Why are they still so oversized?

No, the ships. They're HUGE compared to the WC equivalents--many are around 40m while few WC ships exceed 30 and most are in the lower 20s.

If your comparing them to saga's models, the scaling factor is different.  If PCS2 ever includes a rescaling feature, then I'll scale down, otherwise it's a little too late.

Also the only ship that exceeds 40m so far is the Galaxy and thats a gunship.  Heavy's and bombers are all in the 30-35 range. Mediums in the ~25, lights ~20.

UGH DONE AT LAST!!!!

There should be 56 models, hopefully I didn't miss any.  I temporary excluded the Goran (because i lost the psd/max fiels), the Jralthi (pcs2.01 doesn't like to convert it and it currently suffers from inverted bounding box) and the bug ships (they need better textures period).


Now if you'll excuse me I think i'll go and try to un-cross-eye my eyes now....  :lol:

Sorry don't know how to do squad logos.

Let's see for fighters/bombers:
Longbow (nearly ready)
reaper (nearly ready)
heretic (nearly ready)
unnamed ship i cloned from 3dArt
canon avenger (needs painting)
banshee
centaur
epee
javalin
kfighter (unnamed kilrathi fighter)
the X-36 figther


for caps:
Torgo (working on now)
lumbari (painted)
Ralari (painted, use it for a tutorial)
lancer (painted, need help with odd angle turrets)
cat carrier (forgot the name offhand, part of Kilrathi ship seeks name)
clysdale (uvmapping)
unnamed cruiser from privateer online designs
one of Lar's frigates
monolith (might end up being classified, sorry)
another transport (also might end up being classified)
Victory
waterloo (poor things been stuck since christmas 06)
snakier

Plus a ton of stuff i just stuck in the "put aside" folder.

Beside that the Gladius paint looks very nice as does the Ra'toh.

PS: Its interesting that you are allways use a kind of Kilrathi spelling of my name...Lar's ^_^

Post by: maje on March 14, 2008, 07:53:41 pm
nice job on all of those, though the texturing seems to be rather simplistic on the Pirhana and Vampire from Wing Commander Prophecy.  Also, I thought that the Midway had a split down the middle of the hull, though I could be wrong since it's been about 8-10 years since I played that game.

If you are making ships from Prophechy, is there a chance that Nephilum ships will start showing up?
Title: Re: Model Release Redux (Picture heavy)
Post by: Scooby_Doo on March 14, 2008, 11:52:57 pm
YA I didn't really touch the vampires or pirhana's textures seeing as their basically "canon", as "canon" as I can get.
Midway did have a split down the middle, "ole pants".

Most of my ships are from the post-nephilum invasion time period (2700ish) around the time of *cough* Arena *hack*.
I do have some bug ships, or I should say crustacean ships.  But I really need to practice with organic texturing, they look like 70's psychedelic designs LOL.

Scooby:  This would be a huge hassle for you, but if you made a temp texture (like the WC symbol over the green255 background and made a square area UV'd on the wings, and or tails of the fighters then people could keep them or switch out manuall for other sqaudrons.

The main one on the wing would be the specific org like "Confed", the tail one would represent that individual squadron "44th Swordsmen" (or whatever). if people don't like it they can assign those areas new textures in like 3 secs in MV/PCs2 whatever.

I take it your the most prolific modeler here now eh? (when we have the awards week?), that is if you average the amount of ships you've done versus release dates. He he...  :lol:

I think you were referring to the Hornet, which I might someday actually do, so I renamed it back to Phantom.

Someday maybe when Max->PCS2 support is here I'll do that, but remember that won't help if the logo is getting light shown on it.

Whew. I remember debating the look of some of those. The Dagger most vividly. They look pretty good, and I'll even go so far as admitting that I kinda like the Dagger when it sits aside those other beauts. Just curious 1.) How long'd it take you to render those and post them here, and 2.) Are these for any particular campaign?

The Dagger (originaly Encantona, from P2) was actually one of my earlier models redone a few times.  I'm not exactly sure about rendering times, the show-off pic was probably the longest and most cpu consuming since I used mental ray.  The avi's didn't take too long. 

No, theres no real campaign for them, although I do aim for a post-prophecy (~2700) era timeline.

Geez if the pirahna is as big as the erynines, then fs2 must have really tiny fighters.

What errors, also check and see if the Saga's cap ships also have that eror.  I think it's the animation resetting to 0 warning, if so ignore it.

If you downloaded all the models, you'll have to pick and choose which ones you want and disable the others.  I've got more ships than available slots. Strange about the f_shockwave.pof problem as that's part of Saga's stuff

I've put a blank ships table in (with a default resupply) and tracked the (numerous :)) missing effects to these two factors: most fighters have the f_shockwave so i used one from somewhere else rather than modify all the tbms. And there are quite a few bits missing which are referred to by the confed_weapons.tbm in Scooby_additional.vp :) i'm currently "borrowing" from other mods. Obviously getting sagas stuff would ruin the surprise but it's good so far :D

How big is the washington? It looks about the size of the deimos. does it have a hangar?

Heck I remember when 56k was fast!  The washingon is somewheres between 1.2 to 1.6km  (all my cruisers fall in that size range).  The Washington doesn't come with a hanger bay, it was a bit too thin when I first build it (it's one of my older models).  More likely it'll be part of a battlegroup.  I'm kinda thinking its an artilliary cruiser, hit 'em from long range.  I know the tables don't reflect this though.

Huh? :o OK, I guess you got me on that one - I have only pretty little info about SWC... (saw the Confed fighters, carrier and the Salthi [i.e. Shok'lar] so far)

Though I think the PC versions to be (a bit) more "canon", as they were there first and also are the ones that were continued...
Title: Re: Model Release Redux (Picture heavy)
Post by: starlord on July 29, 2008, 05:17:48 pm
Yeah, of course! :nod:

It's just funny that the story in fact was that the 3do studio didn't have the meshes for the ships of the game: They ended up creating their own (it's a coincidence that the SWc dralthi is also a "flying pancake") and origin ended up reusing several meshes in other games (privateer gladius=SWC raptor, WC2 jalkehi= SWC jalthi, armada K carrier = SWC snakeir, WC2 gilgamesh =SWC exeter, priv talon = SWC gratha, etc...)

see? nothing's lost! :D

By the way, if you want to emulate SWC, I would recommend emulating the mac version rather than the 3do (gameplay will be much smoother since SWC is one of the few 3do games still resisting us) :mad2:

I think only the ghost is so far not a WC ship.

As for the Cavalery...isn't it a P2 ship?
Title: Re: Model Release Redux (Picture heavy)
Post by: Scooby_Doo on November 06, 2008, 06:59:16 pm
Calvary was based on the P2 Ogan.  The Ogan is a capship however the model style looked better as a fighter/bomber.

Off the top of my head, the ghost, nighthawk, foxbat, falcon, galaxy, gothhek, pakriss, ra'toth, darkoth and majority of the capships aren't WC, although several are based on, or include parts of WC models.  As for coming down the line: the unamed 3drt model, centaur, javalin, f-4phantom, liberator, sortahn, claymore (possibly going to be renamed), the f-7 model, ocelot, harpy, rave, super hornet, viper and majority of the capships aren't specifically WC models (some do feature wc model pieces or extensive modifications from existing models)


The bearcat got another minor tweak, just to the tables entries. More compatible with Sagas models although mine should be superior considering their a decade or so newer.

Also the black widow got a smaller model, check it out now.

Edit: Bloodfang now edited and smaller.

Scoob, sorry to bump your thread.

Are you in possession of Rapier2 or Sabre2 meshes?

I did two personal conversions and awaiting the authior's permission for community release.
IF he allows and you don't have these planned already, would you be interested in giving them the "once over" for Scooby style?

I would like to do a pre-release though of them as is (once I finish the shields and subsystem data.

Title: Re: Model Release Redux (Picture heavy)
Post by: Scooby_Doo on January 02, 2009, 02:22:37 pm
There is a rapier 2 that was replaced in saga that was my painting and I've got a sabre in the works.

Unfortunately I'm very extra busy with Sagas models right now I don't have any time for these.  The little time I do have I've been resizing the fighters down to try and fit with sagas smaller fighters. 

Once I get done finalizing saga's mode, then I'll get back to work.

Scooby_Doo, I'm playing around with your models and i think there may be an issue with the Cruiser Shal'Khar, LOD3 and LOD4 are in the wrong order.
And the shield of the fighters are too large to fit in the your fighterbay e.g. Advanced Medium Valkyrie or the Heavy Dragon.

It would be very nice if you find time to change that on the Shal'Khar and the Advanced Medium Valkyrie  :)

Actually my Rapier 2 looks like it's his.  I'm betting the ferret is his also.  Now my sabre is completely my own.

As for 50% reduction, I don't think it would hurt (you could also give out the 2048 in a "high-res" special vp package)

The Jrathek is going to be completely redone.  As it stands now it's very ugly.

Im not sure if anyone else has had this problem...
when i use Scooby's fighters that have an in-cockpit model, ships such as the cobra and faldari, i can see part of the pilot model in the cockpit and it obscure my view
i have uses these models previously and have not encountered this problem
i have not altered the .pof in any way
is this a problem with my field of view or some other setting?

EDIT: I was not having this problem until i switched to using RC2 from the wcsaga.exe with scooby's models so that may be the issue
Title: Re: Model Release Redux (Picture heavy)
Post by: Scooby_Doo on July 06, 2009, 11:04:08 pm
I've had issues with this in the past, did you try replacing an existing ship with one of mine in FRED?  I think this might be where I've had issues before.
If nothing else try moving the eye further forward.  

Those models will get a work over soon, as I'm nearing completion on all my finished kilrathi models.

Some of it was premade (the light, airbrush (except for hose), glue bottle, tweezers) I grabbed off the net, the reset was scratch built.

Jrathek? One of the finest kilrathi bogies IMO.

Could we see the beast?

Also do you happen to have other armada ships (goran, korh-ar, kilrathi carrier) or from the movie (Com ship)?

Thanks, Scooby.  I just edited the pofs to move the eye points, which solved my problem.

Hey Scoob, I'm not sure if this is intentional or not, but the ship named 'Calvary', it this a misspelling of 'Cavalry', the guys who go on horses and stuff? Or was it intended as the religious thing?

Or maybe there's no such ship in the Canon Wing Commander universe?

It looks like a variant of Longbow, but I don't think it's Mk1 and Mk2 looked different (for example had 3 turrets instead of one).

Probably once I get everything I've got finished, refinished.  Then I can start mass re-releasing/releasing.  The kilrathi stuff is mostly done, just need to do some tweaking to re-export them.  Right now I'm just doing mental ray renderings of them, which take forever to do.

Perhaps some plot events of privateer 3 could end up being used in saga custom campaigns at some point thanks to those models... :nod:

I'll warn you, it's a gunship so it might be a bit annoying to fly (more sluggish than even the broadsword was) but packs on hellva firepower.  3 laser turrets, rear mass driver? chin unknown (was going to be neutron).  4 centerline meson's, 4 wing plasmas, 2 phased plasmas (same as the devastators).  Oh and it doesn't really land on a carrier because of it's size (about half the size of a Kamrani [~50meters])

It looks like its mainly base texture. (Forget the term) with some vertical blur on the smudges and erasing.
 
What look are you after cos I think the bump on theirs is quite flat. Maybe use emboss on the base but keep it light/thin like your fighter panels. You're probably just in a rut, go onto something else and come back to it. A break always helps.

It was based off Privateer's Centurion, or at least it started from it.  Originally I had intended to be advanced class, but it switched it over to heavy

I think it's the texturing, although it may just be the high amount of ambient light (in which case it's just a render settings problem).

Edit: wait no, I remembered what it was. It's all the rounded bits on the newer fighters you've been making.
Title: Re: Model Release Redux (Picture heavy)
Post by: Scooby_Doo on October 30, 2009, 01:16:33 am
For the lighting I'm trying to mimic the light from the sun plus ambient light given off by earth below.

rounded bits? you mean the smoothing?  Most of that is just smoothing, and what isn't is chamfered to reduce the blocky sharp cornered box look.

I'm trying to get a more realistic look to them.
Don't overdo it... I at least don't like spacecraft dating to 26xx looking old and rusty, especially those that are supposed to be new when you first play them, like the Crossbow.
I mean - we already do have nanosurfaces with lotus-effect or whatever TODAY... In case technology doesn't go on a decline in-between now and then, it seems just strange to me.
Maybe except for the Standoff mod, where the storyline demands each and every old unused crap to be launched into space...

But of course, it's your decision :) . I just wanted to express my view about it.


Btw. - nice renders :) .
Any advice on how to do such lasers as in your Crossbow render from inside trueSpace?
     ...oops, I suddenly feel targeting crosshairs on my back :shaking: ... ;)

Well in that case, pretty much none of the sci-fi games out there are reasonably accurate LOL.

I'm not looking for the beat up junker look, just the used look, hasn't gone through a car wash and buff LOL.


For the lasers, I used the game effects on a plane, (diffuse, glow and transparent are all the same texture). I linked them to the turret and rotated the turret to some angle, and then rotated the laser plane so it's facing the camera.  Same thing with the engine thrusters.

Speaking if fs2 textures, I know most of your stuff is for WC, but would it possibe for you to give some of these more FS-ish alternate textures?  Not a big deal, just thought it would be cool.

1) Yes, somewhat. I liked the shiny/plastic look the ships originally had in WC2 and WCArmada's manual :D .
2) Ok, as long as you don't overdo it :) .
3) Thanks :yes: . Seems like, for wallpapers, this is a pretty straightforward idea... It's just that I thought more along the lines of something that could be used in rendering a video, too (my first try with transparent, light-emitting tS-objects wasn't too promising :-/ ) ... But nonetheless, your tip is helpful, thanks again :) .


Oh, another thing I last time only noticed after logging out:

I'll have to rebuild this entire thread, or start a new one again when I get things done.
...
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v356/Shodan_AI/Model%20Display/jalthi-showoff-1.jpg)
...
As I mentioned somewhere earlier in the thread (or was it even an older thread?) , this STILL is a Jalkehi from WC2, not a Jalthi from WC1 !
Not to clamour about it's looks - your re-interpretation of older WC-ships into WC3/4-style is usually pretty good :) (I just somewhat dislike your Bloodfang, but well, maybe that's just personal taste...) .


Btw. I had started rebuilding a few WC-ships for myself during the last years, in my thread there's a pic of my Jalkehi (though its texture still needs a bit detailing), and I also started a Bloodfang and a Shok'lar... Might post pic of the Bloodfang soon, just not now as it's certainly bedtime  :nervous: ...   gn8 :) .

Good luck, then :) .

Btw., I just uploaded my Bloodfang-pic - link to the thread is in my signature. As you might see, I'm more trying to recreate the original style (after all, I DID mention above that I like it), than reinterpreting it like you do... but as I already said, that's a matter of taste :) .

Sadly I'm not as fast advancing as you are, as I don't have too much freetime (or nerves, sometimes) :( , and also a few other hobbies...


Btw.:  Any more Steltek or Nephilim ships from your side? I quite like them, story-wise... It's sad that the trilogy that was intended to start with WCP wasn't continued :( .
(And I certainly don't like how they "evaporated" the whole plot with the WCArena manual... Now really - "Nephilim fluid space"?? Been watching too much STVoyager, it seems :rolleyes: . They could at least have placed Arena later in time, and put some "lots-of-information-got-lost"-excuse, to still allow a future continuation of WCP... :( )

Yup, I like your bloodfang too.  Mine was one of the earlier models I did (I'm guessing sometime in 2004-5).

I've got the Steltek mesh (just needs repainting).  The bugs base animated texture is there, just need to apply and modify it, someday.

Read that manual...  :ick:
Somewhere they mention that as Nephilim "homeland" so to say, where the Confederation led an attack to...


On the other hand, as far as I understood it, they were so friendly as to include WCS into the "official" timeline   (wasn't that "Sandman" that they mention in the pilots' list from WCS?)   , and also tried to solve some incongruencies in the earlier timeline.

Still, that doesn't really compensate for them messing up the storyline so much - and for a rather simple 2D-game, nonetheless... :sigh:

And now please give the "wings" a more interesting shape, it's a bit too boxy (the wings) ...


fluid space? :wtf:
Oops, in case you had asked what that was supposed to be - to my knowledge, the idea (or at least the term) was introduced in ST-Voyager.
It's simply another universe/dimension/whatever-you-call-it, where space isn't filled with mostly vacuum but rather some sort of fluid (I wonder what law of gravity such a universe should have... :nervous: ;) ) .
And it seems that for WC-Arena, they plainly stole/copied that idea 1:1 (in Voyager, it's also home to some malevolent species) and used it as a cheap stop-gap to avoid having to build a real background and story for the Nephilim :mad: .

I could eventually have accepted WCArena being mostly 2D - but scrapping the most interesting parts of the existing plotline, just to cut down on production costs? :ick: :mad: :hopping:

Which one? the cap or the fighter?   The cap is some experimenting, and the wings on the demon are all that's left of the original demon. (don't worry the texture will get replaced too.)

Post by: Aardwolf on November 29, 2009, 05:33:26 pm
Well, it's the same phenomenon I've been noticing with a lot of your fighters recently. The older ones somehow looked more 'realistic' ... similar for the warship, but that might also be because of the lower detail in that case.

I thought for a while it was the fillets on the edges, or the level of ambient lighthing, but I think it might just be the textures.
Title: Re: Model Release Redux (Picture heavy)

1.) Sorry for taking so long to check this out, but the first time I tried I didn't find the appropriate script needed to be allowed in NoScript...

2.) That looks nice, make more of these. :)

3.) Well, you see - I think this isn't exactly Nephilim design line. Their ships are mostly looking like fish with a few small spikes, while your ship looks like an insect with only a few fish features...
So I'd say you propably have a Shivan/Nephilim- or Shadows/Nephilim-crossover there, instead of a real Nephilim ship :nervous: . It still DOES look nice, though, so please continue :) - I just wanted to mention that I think the "mood" of this ship doesn't entirely fit Nephilim lines...
 (well, I admittedly mostly am thinking of the Manta and Devil Ray here... but I currently don't see which WCP Neph ship would be as spiky as yours... Oh, an additional note: I really like the Hydra Cruiser, one of the best alien capship designs I can think of. And believe it or not, the Kraken seems somewhat... cuddly to me :nervous: ;) )

I still hold high prazes to the tiamat and the leviathan (the tiamat being somewhat unexploited IMO), although the orca is also a design I like...

I simply do not understand why capital ship grade cannons were disabled in prophecy though: those huge greenish lances on the destroyers/cruisers/dreadnaught should have been capital ship grade cannons, but the idea was scrapped, which I find somewhat problematic: because of this, the orca is actually stronger than the hydra (whereas the hydra has 3 cap cannons and the orca 2).

It's a modified nasa photograph.  I removed the original moon, moved the clouds down lower and put in this moon.  Most of the pics I've come across google are those of the sun just peaking around the earth style.  While they're very pretty, any models would have to have the main light sources coming from the rear which would just case a black shadow over majority of the ship.

Edit: Actually i'm kinda guessing that where-ever this pic was taken it was probably just outside the main atmosphere. I'll keep looking for a better pic.

Only problem with that is that's not how the Demon was designed, most of these ships aren't 100% true to the original as it is, changing the canopy would further veer it off course.

I'll fix up the cockpit glass.  The rapier style wouldn't be bad either, just didn't think of it at the time.

Edit: I found an lighting bug/issue with max.  Look at the raised cockpit area.  The front half looks light it's shaded darker than the back half, yet it isn't.  It's something to do with the rear omni lights.

Btw., any comments on my view of Nephilim design lines?
I remembered that also the Leviathan, Kraken and Barracuda do look much like fish...
Though the Hydra - being my most favoured Nephilim capship design - is something I can't really see to give the impression of a fish...

Maybe Tiamat & Hydra borrow a bit from Octopi, design-wise? :confused:

This is the external cockpits, I've quit working on the built-in ones as they a.) look ugly b.) in order them to make them look good, then the entire model would have too many polys.

To me they look like they have the same angle like the ones that are comming later.
Personaly I think this one will look like a fat turkey compared the the later Dragon. Still I like the details with all the intakes and stuff. The later Dragon was more or less like a stealth fighter of today.
This concept could also very well fit into the Prophecy era. The cockpit is very similar to the Vampire one.

The Excalibure looks like this (see attachment) in the original highres version. The Raptor..well that is a good question.
I would say like in the second attachment? To bad I never managed to get this one done.

I must say, that Raptor looks almost identical to the blueprint/sprite images of the fighter I've seen. I really hope you can finish that for the final release of WCS.  :yes:
Title: Re: Model Release Redux (Picture heavy)
Post by: Commander Zane on December 20, 2009, 07:24:07 pm
It seems too long or too narrow, could just be the angle though.
Title: Re: Model Release Redux (Picture heavy)
Post by: gevatter Lars on December 22, 2009, 10:43:41 am
The Raptor is build following the blueprints IIRC, been pretty long time since I made this one.
Also there was a differance between the ingame images and the blueprints as the aspect ratio was different. So that might be why you think its a bit long/narrow.

What it really needs is a higher up in the air picture, preferable completely out of the atmosphere, (in low orbit)

Title: Re: Model Release Redux (Picture heavy)
Post by: Scooby_Doo on January 02, 2010, 09:58:09 pm
I'll cut a few out... besides I have to make some adjustments to all the models...

1.) Do not use symmetry if you going to have a symmetric uvmap.  It breaks the normal mapping.  Use mirror instead and do not weld the vertices.  Course this can break smoothing on not surfaces that are not flat.

@gevatter Lars:

Your Raptor looks good, but I have the impression that it's "wings" are smaller than in the original... but then, that might be just the perspective-handling of your rendering-program...






@Scooby_Doo:


Nice ships, I especially like the Ajax :) .
Though there might be a bit more detail on it's front... a liitle smaller "nose", propably?

Maybe you could make the tail of the Bearcat get a bit thinner to the aft?
Rectangular as it seems to be it looks somewhat "boxy"...

Also, the Aurora looks great :yes: - a cruiser/destroyer to accompany the carrier from Secret Ops (wasn't the name "Hades"?) , maybe?


Your Dragon, though, is missing it's "chin" and the boxes on top of the wings seem a bit too large... and somehow, it overall doesn't have this "dark" feeling that the original Dragon had... sorry I don't know how to explain the last one better :nervous: .  (hm, maybe the part where the normal guns are is a bit too long and slender? not sure about that...)




But anyway, keep going :) . I'm just trying to give constructive critic ;) .

Scooby, what is the size of those ships?
If they're FS sized, I'd like to use them in my mod.
Of course, if they're WCS sized (smaller, you downscaled your previous models 25% to fit this standard), I may consider starting a new, WC themed mod.

I've only just stumbled onto this thread.  What an amazing amount of work that has gone into these models!

The earliest post I can find is march 13th 2007, when exactly did you start?  I'm assuming this is all done just in your spare time, and to get this amount of detail & level of finish on so many models is just incredible, it totally blows me away.  I've been working on stuff for about a year now, and so far have completed a few small models - a pitiful effort in comparison!  Just wanted to let you know what an inspiration this is, and I sincerely hope that you can continue to keep the ball rolling!

Fine work as with all these scooby. I'm just wondering how many more you actually have to go through as the list seems never ending.

TCC Essex (heavy cruiser)
The front half underwent a major makeover from the original.  The two hangers were removed and replaced with 4 (2 on each side) launch tubes

Just about finished with it... next up Excalibur.

I'm not sure I really like the PTC, it makes battles too quick, perhaps an upgraded plasma gun version like the Tellie has.  
BTW in easy mode the fralthi and it slowly trade fire, the essex will likely loss one of it's big guns.  In insane, the fralthi goes down in about a minute or less.  :eek:


Totally rebuilt from the ground up.  I used limdaepl's excalibur as a template.

If the parts with the little fins on it could rotate you could say this is an upgraded Excalibure that also uses rotatable engine parts like the Vampire or Panther from Prophecy.

Improved pitch and yaw would be the first things that would be improved and with that possibly better prophecy armor, sorta a big brother to the original.  :)
Originally I was going to have two classes (an upgraded Excal. and a modified thurst vectored sibling Excelsior class, but I ended up throwing them into one.




This is awesome.

Yup, I've made requests in the past.  I've got several fighters that could use it (vampire, valkarye, falcon, viper and now the excal.  Also a possible thurst vectored raptor is a possibiliy).

Last I remember of the Claw Marks Raptor all that was done of it was the model, and I was told to convert it, texture it, and code it myself. :doubt:
And I don't have the capability to do any of them.
Plus at this rate Scooby would have it done and out sooner. :P

I think that they were quite fun to fly in WCP.
Also, Devastator.

Oh crude... i forgot the Devastator.... I've got one nearly ready to go.... wonder where i put it.  :lol:

I haven't done either the panther, tigershark nor wasp yet.  I will eventually get to them  (i've already got the pirahna and shrike)

Mine?  I'm thinking of redoing that one and renaming it.  That way I can work on Lar's raptor as a real Raptor. The whole model is very very old.

It's most likely done by now.

Exactly, has that Sabre gone anywhere since then or is it lying dormant? So far I've liked the current progress of your Mk. II ships.
Will the Rapier also get this sort of makeover?
Title: Re: Model Release Redux (Picture heavy)
Post by: Scooby_Doo on May 15, 2010, 03:32:41 pm
It's temporarily dormant.  It's sitting in the "Retexture" folder like everything that will need to be upgraded and repainted (it just needs to be painted I think).  When I get to the S's.

The rapier will definitely be getting an overhaul (i think that was one of my first models).  There will also be a much smaller light version of it (around the size of an dagger, epee, arrow) that i haven't given a name to yet.

Wow, finally my favourite bomber, great work Scooby.
It has everything that made it so great, a lot of turrets (I see only 3 and assume there are 4, the original had 5 of them), big, honkin' cannon under it's cockpit (who needs torpedoes?) and load of torpedoes worth of a freighter. I can't wait to see it textured (and in-game. and released :) ).
Title: Re: Model Release Redux (Picture heavy)
Post by: Scooby_Doo on May 21, 2010, 03:28:54 am
One on top, one in the top rear, one on the front starboard and one on the front port.   Where do you think the 5th one is,  bottom rear under the engine?   The original textures themselves are rather ugly on the underside to find anything useful about it.
Title: Re: Model Release Redux (Picture heavy)
Post by: Dragon on May 22, 2010, 04:20:01 pm
There's 5th turret, somewhere on the underside and in a position that allows it to fire forwards (I've seen it doeing this constantly, every time I was aiming the Plasma Cannon at strikecrafet).
CIC confirms it, 5 turrets: http://www.wcnews.com/ships/wcpdevastator.shtml

Now that I think about it, the 5th turret would raise questions about how this thing is going to land.
It's bottom is just too flat to fit a turret there and have a good place for landing gear.

It's been a long time since I seen Priv II.
Perhaps it's also the resolution, my father played Priv II on (I think) 640-480 resolution (that was looong ago, it was acutally quite decent computer for it's time).
It also has similar (though a bit lower, and it's grayscale) quality in the manual.

the frigate from the other tread of your models  :) nice. Caernavon 2.0 ^^

question: is there a chance that we see from you a Bengal Class Battlecarrier (TCS Tigers Claw, Wolfshound, Kyoto)?

I currently don't have anything from the Bengal class.... ask Lar's he was building a very nice Bengal carrier.  :)


Also if you look hard enough you'll see parts of one of Trashman's models (mostly the rear engine section).  I used his model and built from there.  The first atttempt was to use the Tallie's hammer head front, but didn't look very impressive.

3 seperate hangers.... technically 1 and the other two will become launch tubes



Your choice of carriers so far are:

After Wing Commander Saga has been released, I hope Scooby Doo's models are given Wing Commander SAGA stats and are added on. They are too good to remain "campaignless".

Since BP uses old versions of both of these models, upgrades could come in handy.

Post by: Thaeris on February 02, 2011, 02:16:27 pm
It seems this would be more of a scripting issue - we have rotational code in place. What we would need is a script to take into account the forward velocity of the ship when applying roll to the engine pods - the faster you're going forward, the less the pods should roll (in the case of an atmospheric fighter, at least). But then, it's really just a case of relatives when doing this sort of thing and what the mod (or fighter in question) requires. I bring this up as I try to help Shadow Gorrath out with an atmospheric mod when I can.

Then again, wasn't a standing issue in this that thruster points are incapable of moving dynamically to a different location?

Thruster points indeed can't move, I forgot about that.
Also, you are proposing actual scripting, which isn't something that most people know.
By "animation code" I meant what can be done via tables, which currently only allows "on/off" animation (it's moving from one position to another).
For this, you'd need support for "dynamic" (the more you move the stick, the more the engines will turn) animations.

Looks great, I can't wait to get my hands on it.  :)
BTW, do you have many ships on -K and -J to do?
We could use a new Liberty, since as you may know, BP is using it and your new models are more effeicent (and look better) than the old ones.
Not to mention that the only Carrier you released so far, the Enterprise, is huge and Jutland seems to be of similar size.
An Escort Carrier would certainly come in handy for mission designers.

@Dragon... I haven't found a good A-10 model  (that didn't cost money) online yet to use as a basis, however, I did find a few other models to turn from aircraft to fighters.    The SEPECAT Jaguar, BV 138 and the Lancaster.  The WW2 stuff is rather hard to convert, mainly of how the engines are placed/built.

There is a true black lance carrier in WC4 that never appears in game: the mesh is here:

Of course, the whole thing looks quite nice so far.

The whole ship is just a bit longer (50meters give or take) than the Southampton.  Overall it's quite a bit chunkier than the South.

It looks great.

Not sure yet.  Probably a darkened version of my regular capship textures.

Hangar.  :)
This (quite humorous) typo is present on most of your ships in subobject names.
Hanger - something you use to hand something (like a coat).
Hangar - where you keep aircraft.

Perhaps some "next-gen" super-gun, like the Cerberus had the "next-gen" plasma gun.


The Jaguar is ready and is put on the to-finish list.
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: starwolf1991 on April 04, 2011, 01:23:45 am
"Next-Gen" Plasma Gun like the Cerberus in Secret Ops? That would make sense -- I have Secret Ops here, and that turret is the exact same on both.

Knowing the Lance, most likely to be something similar or a prototype. That said, I think both the Cerberus and this carrier share some similarities.

On the to-finish list? Wicked! I'm looking forward to see it! :p

I really like that model, and your turret details. Nice work as always Scooby :) I would have picked another bridge style myself, because I don't like the hades bridge that much. Maybe a murphy/midway type, or even a simple tallahassee detail bridge with some additional structure would fit better, but that's only me :) Just nitpicking.

Can't wait to see it textured  :yes:

With all the extra stuff in it you could have the impression that this ship is twice the size of the original Midway. Its very massiv, thanks to the closed gap (what I like) but the new lunch tubes and the number of landingbays are a bit of an overkill in my opinion.
They don't flow into the design like the rest of the changes you did. To me they kinda look like a later attachment to the original hull instead of being there from the beginning. Its kinda missing some style ^_^

Post by: Col. Fishguts on September 18, 2011, 08:37:54 am
Yeah, the 4 massive blocky launch bays in the front take away most of the elegance the original design has. Maybe if they were smaller or receded back under the hammer head, they might flow better with the rest f the design?

Post by: Scooby_Doo on September 20, 2011, 05:53:58 am
The bottom two hangers are designed for the Liberators (and can serve pretty much anything else).  If you look at the Enterprise class the two side hangers do the same, kinda like the old Confederation class's raising hanger.  I'll try and move the launch tubes further into the body, luckily it won't affect the uvmapping i'm doing.

Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Scooby_Doo on September 22, 2011, 02:21:51 pm
I had to some cheating with it.  The base texture tiling will be half the normal size so I could reduce the number of textures by a 4th.  I was up to 15 something just for the main hull.. now I'm down to about 6 (possibly 5 if I'm lukcy)
I'll warn you, big large flat surfaces, while easy to uvmap, are horrible when it comes to texture efficiency.

I love it, though upon closer inspection I found it's a flying target.  :)
4 medium cannons, no stormfires, no missile launchers... Quite a departure from your previous designs, but in line with the Midway-class.
I guess that now it's time for F-4 knockoff (Mithras), then the Monolith. I'm looking forward to that.

Not needed, as I mentioned, Midway always was a flying target. It's fine, it wasn't supposed to go into direct combat anyway.

Post by: Scooby_Doo on October 26, 2011, 05:20:31 pm
Ya, that's my thoughts too, also 40+ turrets firing makes it a rather difficult bullseye to hit.

As for the monolith, it's getting a major work over  :D

Opps I kinda got the next two switched around... anyways Monolith

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v356/Shodan_AI/TCT-Monolight1.jpg)

There will be four types of  cargo containers, fighter transport, fuel, supplies and civil/medical.  Each one will be a seperate ship that docks with the monolith so you can mix and match as needed (the medical one will need all three slots (it's one big model with two hanger bays for medical shuttles..etc)

Yup, if you look at the underbelly shot, you'll see a rectangular area, thats the bay door. I just have to double check to make sure it's long enough for missiles.
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Dragon on March 05, 2012, 03:34:47 pm
Since you don't animate such parts, they're only really suitable for hardpoints (the texture enforces this, not really looking like doors).
I was thinking more along the lines of bays on Javelin.
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Scooby_Doo on March 10, 2012, 10:28:45 pm
You mean like opening doors before launching missiles?  While I like the idea, just not really practical considering how fast things are moving around.

Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)

Not only the tile size, coloring also changed. It looked like you decided to suddenly change styles. Also, I've pointed it out to you multiple times.  :)
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Scooby_Doo on March 14, 2012, 11:38:52 pm
The coloring on the cap ships haven't changed, just the tile size (also I dropped the "rivets" from the cap texture, they ended up being more problematic than good)  The caps and fighters are a different shades of blue, some of the differences is from the base hull texture is different, caps have that tile. 

Also the easiest way to fix the capships is just to downsize the tile texture.  A lot easier than re-uvmapping everything UGH

Edit: Fixing this won't be a major problem.  Resize the tiling down 50% is about right and I've got a nice script that does everything.  Unfortunately my computer is so bloody slow  :hopping:
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Scooby_Doo on March 16, 2012, 10:47:36 pm
There I've fixed the capship tiling issue.  I think the Midgard is slightly larger, but unless you stuff them next to another ship you won't notice.  And the Hermes is so small it needs it's own tiling size.
Offnote, doubling the tiling has made capship textures look more detailed.

Oh crude I found where the problem is.  It's not the color of the blue nor the transparency, but rather I moved the layers location around.   :banghead:  I think I'll use the Liberty's darker blue, as it looks better and would require less models to fix.

Alright I've finished fixes that problem.  Only the shine and diffuse maps needed to be updated (normal maps and some of the regular maps that didn't use the black/blue painting weren't effected)

The fix effects the following models:
Ajax
Athena
Aurora
Clysdale
Diemos
Enterprise
Essex
Formidable
Gallileo
Gilgamesh

From the Jutland on it seems I changed the layer layout.  Hopefully that's all of them

Originaly it was designed to be a Black-Lance carrier for Saga. Its from a time when we hadn't decided what timeline to go with..I think. Been so long ago ^_^

@Scooby
Looks very nice. Changeing it to a frigate with a hangarbay is a very interesting idea. I think the term "mini carrier" is quite fitting. After all the bigger carriers going from carrier over fleet carriers to super and mega carriers its a nice change to go into the other direction.
I think it should become an "official" class of ship...the mini carrier.

You don't need a new class. It'd be either an escort carrier or a pocket carrier.

Is there any place where old models are still available? I need older version of the Nimitz carrier. I need older version cuz' it just fits better to my mod than new one [shape and texture]. I need this carrier to fleet I'm making. This is still Freepsace universe, Deimos-like textures of old Nimitz are just like a salvation for me.

Post by: Woolie Wool on May 03, 2012, 09:23:10 pm
I dunno, I don't really like this one. It feels disjointed and the various parts don't flow together very well. Take a look at the concept art and how the lines are tightly integrated, and how its proportions differ from your model's.
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Aginor on May 04, 2012, 04:07:27 am
I think it is mainly the front part. It is too long and angular.
If I had to come up with a comparison I would say it should be more like Arrow than like Hellcat.
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Scooby_Doo on May 04, 2012, 05:04:47 am
Well part of it was it had to actually hold the cockpit tub without falling out the bottom.  Also I've sized this much smaller than the bearcat, a light interceptor instead of a heavy.

Part of the problem with drawings is that they don't necessarily follow physical layouts or at least create some odd optical illusions.  Take, for example, the rear section where the wing meets the engine pods.

Phantom

I shrunk it down quite a bit to a light fighter size.   My original model: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v356/Shodan_AI/Model%20Display/Hornet_ShowOff.jpg which was based on this model: http://www.wcnews.com/ships/armphantom.shtml

Could you add two more guns (maybe inside the two cavities on the front)? It had two lasers and two Mass Drivers in Armada. Also, IIRC, you haven't yet made such a small fighter with 4 guns (and you've got more than enough such ships with two guns).
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Scooby_Doo on May 07, 2012, 03:39:33 pm
Hmm good catch, I just saw the two guns under the hull in the pics. I could put the two mass drivers where the lasers are and move the two lasers into those front canards.  The two large box areas contain the missile launcer.... or..... I could put the missiles on rakes on the wings. (I assume all I would need it the pylon to connect the missiles to the wings, the missiles themselves would be up to the modder?).

Something like the racks on Epee. In Armada, the Phantom carries 4 missiles total. Seems reasonable for a light fighter, and 4 racks would fit well under the wings.
On the other hand, mounting lasers on canards and sticking MDs where the lasers are now may also be a good idea.

You know I was just thinking about it last week. 

Take a look at the side view of it, especially the forward section (the cockpit area).

Doesnt it kinda resemble a epee and a hellcat combied?

This was what I was actually referring to:
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v356/Shodan_AI/cockpitcopy.jpg)

just the cockpit side angle.   I absolutely hate the round windows of it, resembles some 1950's futuristic car thingie.
I have seen that angular layout before but I just can't seem to figure out where.
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)

Indeed, the cockpit looks a bit like on a Hellcat, though only from the side.
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Aginor on May 11, 2012, 05:47:20 am
I think it looks more like an Arrow actually, with a wider snout and cockpit struts like the Epee.

IMO, the Arrow is the last thing it resembles. It's clearly a straight hull with wings, not a wedge like the Arrow. It's a Terran Bloodfang with vertical side planes replaced by turbines with quad wings.

Especially the Broadsword. My long time favorite design from Wing Commander. Also, the best bomber I ever flew in WC, the only comparable one was the Devastator. Three MDs made mincemeat of anything in front of it, and three turrets with neutrons took care of the rest. And I still could dogfight Sarthas in this thing.

The body behind the cockpit is the easy part, it's just another Armada ship, like the phantom, banshee, and even the demon

in all honesty, i never really liked the ship design of the WC 3/4 era whenever i compared them to the WC 1/2 era incarnations... i just thought that the WC 1/2 designs are much creative and elegant.

if we are talking design choices, i'd take a WC 1 Rapier over a Hellcat or Excalibur any day

One nitpicky thing on a lot of these designs, the blue engine intakes like on the Dragon in WC4 and a lot of your ships I thought are supposed to be part of an anti-matter drive. Which is why only the Dragon and capships have that.
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Talon 1024 on May 16, 2012, 06:41:06 pm
Well, I think Scooby's ships are meant to be post-Prophecy era, so you may see more fighters with matter/antimatter reactors, such as the Vampire for example.
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Scooby_Doo on May 16, 2012, 09:57:41 pm
Actually the Dragon seems to be the oddball out of Confeds intakes, the rest are blue.
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Pahkwa-thanh on May 17, 2012, 03:53:39 am
the red glow of the dragon is probably because of another drive instead of the regular matter/antimatter drive... or at least some vitaly important components have been switched. i mean, there's gotta be a reason why its red like a kilrathi's and not blue so the most likely explanation seems to be a different drive system
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Dragon on May 17, 2012, 08:07:45 am
Dragon's seems to have a lot of Kilrathi derived systems, so it's quite possible that it's the early version of AM drive aped (hehe (http://instantrimshot.com/classic/?sound=rimshot) :)) from them.
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Scooby_Doo on May 17, 2012, 02:42:21 pm
Possibly... also it might have been a prototype of an antimatter drive system shrunk down.  Cap ships already had the blue glow back in WC3, so it might have been a requirement to get the drive downsized to actually fight into a fighter.

Hey Starman!
While you are here I have two questions for you (Sorry Scooby, I'll be BTT in a minute):
1. Did any of your models of that thread of yours (this one: http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=71822.0 ) ever get textured and ready to fly ingame?
2. What about your Prophecy mod? Did it go anywhere yet?

The reason I am asking is that once my Kilrathi mod is finished I may want to revisit the WC4 or WCP era. And if that project of yours is still running I may to join you (or someone else) to make it happen.


Soo... BTT. About your ships, Scooby:
I _think_ I remember some Nephilim designs from you ages ago (I think they weren't textured but I'm not sure), and I wanted to ask you whether those were ever finished. I'm asking basically for the same reasons I'm asking Starman about his ships. I'm gathering possible material for future mods where possible.
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Deathsnake on June 27, 2012, 03:47:04 am

Thanks Scooby :)

@Guys : No model from my thread have been processed any further. They are free give aways for anyone who wants them. Converting is a matter of seconds, just use 3d explorer. If you want any, just give me a call. My WC mod will always stay a dream. The idea (while I still would like to do it) is nearly the size of saga, and I do not have the time and mood, not to mention the team and knowledge for it. I stay focussed on my BT mod, it's already not easy with the time.

Maybe we can convince scooby to texture my fighter models :) He definitly has the skill to do it  ;7

There's a stormfire sitting in there, same as the Kris.  The original pirahna had 2 ions, 1 laser, and one stormfire.  The black ops version had 3 ions. I went with 2 ions (or whatever) and 1 stormfire.  Honestly, I didn't realize it also had a laser.

It'd be nice if you could put the chin mounted laser/ion cannon back in.

I'll see what I can do, but there isn't much room left there.  Stormfire will probably need to be sized down a bit.

Its the colours mostly I think
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Aginor on July 19, 2012, 10:12:41 am
Ah, ok. That's an interesting topic throughout the history of SciFi.
I mean: basically it is useless to have colorful ships flying around. And people are used to watching "monochromatic" ships by watching Star Trek and Star Wars and some others as well (WC3 where most stuff is grey with blue).
In other SciFi the color is important to show a ship belongs to a certain faction or race, and some just use random colors for everything.

Many WC fans like the colorful designs from WC2. In WC1 all Terran ships had almost the same colors, in WC2 there were totally different ones around (Broadsword and Ferret, Epee, Rapier, all different). Some fans disliked the "boring" (a.k.a. more "realistic") colors of WC3 while some liked those. Priv2 uses the WC2 approach, with colorful stuff everywhere.

I think it is a matter of personal preference after all. But look at it this way: Those are civilian/clan ships. Civilian airplanes and cars and ships and stuff in real life tend to be more colorful than military ones. Perhaps that was the idea. Also Priv2 is kinda surrealistic anyway. Maybe you should take drugs and try again :D   (no, please don't)
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: headdie on July 19, 2012, 11:41:18 am
sorry I should have been clearer, its not the fact that they are colourful but the patterns and in some cases the combination of colours like these
(http://www.wcnews.com/wcpedia/images/V465_352L.png)
(http://www.wcnews.com/wcpedia/images/P2drakkar.png)

The resolution of the textures dont bother me too much, I grew up on early 90s DOS and indeed I prefer the WC1-2 era designs but I just thing they dropped the ball in how they handled the textures in Priv2
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Aginor on July 20, 2012, 02:52:16 am
Yeah, they might have turned the saturation slider up a bit too much sometimes, and the combinations are... creative sometimes.
Also IIRC Priv2 was a completely different design team so that might explain the difference.
Sometimes it even feels like it is not even the same universe. We literally see nothing we know from Priv1 or any WC game. I like the game but one or two Kilrathi in it would not have been bad. Priv1 felt like in the same universe. There are stories about how the war is going, and also Kilrathi ships flying around. Priv2 is much different. If it wasn't called Privateer people wouldn't recognize it.

Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Scooby_Doo on August 10, 2012, 02:49:29 pm
Unfortunately no.  Because this is a round object, with round surfaces, any straight line tiling (like the bathroom tiles) won't work.  They would need to be curved like the saucer section of a star trek ship.
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Dragon on August 10, 2012, 03:52:55 pm
Well, OK. I intended to have this "bathroom tiles" be "passive-reactive armor", basically a new, post WC4 (and thus flashpak-resistant) kind of armor.

Starbase conversion is going good. No major pcs2 lockups, although there is quite a bit of subobject subsystems (not actually subsystems) so I don't know if they count in the subsystem max.
With any luck, lodding should be easy for this guy.

Edit: Nope I'm wrong, lodding (at least level 3 is a pain, stupid line removal tools are destroying the mesh)  :mad:

Rapier derived variant
This was my original version dating back to 2004:
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v356/Shodan_AI/Model%20Display/rapier-showoff.jpg)

and a couple WIP pics of the newer version medium class superiority fighter.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v356/Shodan_AI/TCF-Rapier1.jpg)
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v356/Shodan_AI/TCF-Rapier2.jpg)
weapon loadout went from the rapier 2 which original had 2lasers/2neutrons to 2lasers/2particle now has 2particle/2pulseparticle.  For a while I had it set to 1cloudburst/2particle which would have made it a devastating fencing fighter.

Looks good, though it's rather different from the Rapier. Maybe you could come up with a different name, and call the second Rapier you mentioned earlier that.
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Scooby_Doo on September 14, 2012, 05:25:30 pm
Consider it a grandchild of the original rapier 2's... possibly rapier 3 or 4 (depending on what Arena used).  Definitely not the rapier 1 descendant... that this was uglier than sin ROFLOL

Looks good, though the resemblance is still somewhat limited. Still, good for a Rapier IV. I'd like to see your other Rapier adhere to WC1 design somewhat more closely. I hope to someday try reskinning your WC1-derived ships to resemble the originals much more.
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Scooby_Doo on September 14, 2012, 10:38:11 pm
Considering the original rapiers from the movie looking nothing like the mark 2 versions, and even the mark 2 A is quite different then the mk 2 H.  Even the Arena rapiers looked different.  Anyways who doesn't want rapiers with thrust vectoring  ;)  :p


Also if you want the G/H models, that is included with Saga.

2 heavy mass drivers, 4 lasers (possibly heavy), 1 stormfire.

Hmmm i see what you mean by the kamekh, never noticed that and I'll have to take a look at the Action's gotha.  It originated from a rather ugly ferret/epee combo.  Luckily I don't think I have the original pics anymore  :lol:



Ok I cheated a bit, but it would have had to be done anyways.  I cloned texture 2 to a new texture 3, would have needed to add a third one anyways.  Also the picture isn't quite like the finally result.  I added a bubble turret on the underhull whilch got rid of a couple of useless missile bays.

Razor/Viper/Ferret Crossover :) But now textured it look badass. Imagine a carrier with 20-30 alone of this type. Looks small, so more fighters can used on a carrier.

12-15m or?

Fixed... wasn't too sure what to put as the third weapon.  It's middle-class sized with dual mass drivers, dual particles.  Putting laser/ion there is pretty pointless and a plasma would be overkill.  A stormfire or a dust cannon would work nicely though.

Saratoga
Unlike the nimitz and the wc3/4 carriers, this one doesn't have a fly through hanger.  The landing and taking off hangers are at two different levels and having such a huge open area seems to be a huge waste of space.
It's about the same length as the Enterprise-class, just less tonnage (it's strictly a carrier and not a battle-wagon)

Actually I think I can do that, plus what I have now.  As long as the hanger doesn't effect the hull, both should work, both have similar landing/take off positions.  Just name one TCCV-Saratoga.pof and the other TCCV-Saratoga1.pof

I like it. Looks far more better then the Yorktown / Concordia Class. Reminds a bit to the WC1+2 Ships but still a WC3 design. Just Lasers and Stormfire but I don't think this ship needs cover for enemy fighters, too much defence turrets ^^
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Scooby_Doo on March 22, 2013, 05:47:52 am
A few tachyons, a bunch of lasers, a few stormfires and two torp tubes... (outside the torp tubes, all the weapons are purely defensive)
Mind you this thing is about the size of Saga's Lexington carrier (bigger than my Nimitz, about the same length as the Enterprise but by far less tonnage [less armour], and much smaller than my jutland)
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Scooby_Doo on March 28, 2013, 10:25:55 pm
Those are fighters, hopefully they won't take very long. What sort of ideas you need for Scimitar?

so far with the arrow. it has bit from the wc3 arrow and arena's arrow..  Current loadout includes 2 lasers and 2 dusts (alternatively the mesons or ions). About the same size as the original arrow (light fighters class)

Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Dragon on March 30, 2013, 08:53:15 am
TBH, I think that Bolt would be better. Winglets and the general shape of the hull (notice the beveled parts on other designs are just that, while on Scooby's version they clearly separate the fuselage from two "engine pods") make it a bit too different from the other versions. Even the Arena ones are clearly recognizable as Arrow (well, the basic version is, the rest have a lot of bits welded on, but keep the basic shape under them). Scooby's doesn't immediately scream "Arrow" to me. This might be because it's noticeably less streamlined than other designs.

They can all be fired from the same bay door.  I would put a second door behind the first, but that's taken up a lot of room that should be used for the engines.
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)

Could you make a version with outer guns replaced with missile bays? It'd bring the loadout much more in-line with WC1 and would look nice to boot.

Splendid, though could perhaps use a smaller bridge. I was thinking of something that would boast 6-8 Plasma Turrets, 2-3 Mk.III Plasma Cannons (those big, fixed front ones), 3-4 CSM quads, a load of other weaponry and tonnage and size similar to a Hvaar'kaan-class dreadnought. Sort of a more modern day replacement for the Confederation-class DNs.

I'm looking at two versions:

Seagull - 2 or 3 lasers and AWACS
Seahawk - 4? lasers and possibily single turret tach or missile launcher (like the kilrathi corvette and the Bonnie)

here's the Nebula version LOL

I've had to take some personal liberties again with it (added intakes, removed one mass driver (it had 3 but no location for the third) and threw in a copilot (it is a bomber after-all)

I have no clue myself, it was there on the original model.  It looks like some sort of sensor thing, a few of the other Prophecy fighters have blackened areas that look a bit like glass (or something similar).

Just about done with the Ballista (Aldo's Scimitar).  Started playing with the Stalker (P2 Karnenan), man I'm pretty much starting over on that model.  I'm using the real model as a basis instead of my old one.  Planning on downgrading it from a  strike bomber to a heavy fighter (like the thunderbolt)

That's a badass bomber. Could you put a Stormfire somewhere under the nose? You'd probably run out of gun banks because of that (as the current config has 3), so it'd be nice if you could rig two versions of the ship. I could use an A-10-style fighter/bomber and this would work perfectly, but it needs a Stormfire.
Also, check your PM.

Ballista is done.

Weapon mounts have changed a bit, 4 plasmas 2 tachyon (that's quite powerful for a bomber class), plus 2 turrets   [the original had a pair of what looks like ion or particle guns that got removed]

Stalker rebuilt from the ground up WIP.  This time it based more on the actual 3ds file rather than just the pics I saw at the time. 
I'm still stuck with the nose cockpit bridge area, just looks soooo awkward.  The tail engine section is coming out really nice though

like dragon says it looks ok, kind of reminds me of 70s era jet fighters, but at the same time I know what you mean.  I suppose if you want you could extend the front of the cockpit down perhaps as a twin seater

Hmmm I do like that... very unique cockpit layout.  I'll give it a spin and see.

Well your idea didn't quite work, there's not enough height between the pilot and copilot, but this looks better
Weapon load-out so far: 2 ions, 2 particles and 2 cloudbursts, no rear turret (no room)

Released and the Stilleto is starting to be painted.

Because of the general size of the ship and shape, it's way way too big for a light fighter unless pilots were 4' tall and 50 pounds.  Switched out the mass drivers with dust cannons and added a pair of lasers.  Tada a sleek light interceptor that can dish out a lot of pain quick.

I always thought it was just horrendously over-engined for its size.

An interesting design, though definitely not a traditional battleship I'd like to have in the Confed lineup. Though it'd fit as a science/exploration vessel.

One of these days/yeras I'll get it up and running, mind you it's over 120km long, yes km.  You can literally land multiple Orions in the front hanger bay, in fact turn on the side you can even put the Collosus in there LOL.  The detailing work is no-where's near enough, as is.  It's kinda a goof-off ship when I get bored LOL.  I have no idea how to texture it, it'll have to be tiled map that much I do know.

Really has nothing to do with wing commander, you'll see a miss-mash of ships from different sci-fi's in there: wing commander, b5, homeworld, star wars, deadspace1, inferno,  star trek, although it is missing BSG and stargate now that i think of it.

So does that mean it has capital ship sized fighters inside it?

Imagine being chased around in your fighter by another fighter the size of a capital ship. And the amount of collisions that go on in FS2... :D
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Scooby_Doo on November 04, 2013, 12:31:30 am
Pretty much... actually think of it as a very mobile starbase.  You can be flying in a fighter docking with a capital ship who's docking with the mothership.

I had it ingame once years ago, back then z-buffering was a MASSIVE problem, especially when you starting going far away from the ship.

Could you make a "classic" version that would be missing the lasers and have Dusts swapped to Mass Drivers? Sort of like what you did with the Scimitar, earlier.

Post by: Nyctaeus on November 09, 2013, 08:07:34 am
Can I have some request? Most of your fighters and bombers don't have regular missile banks, with only missile mounts with external models beneath the hull or wings, which makes them impossible to be used with weapons without any external mounting. When you're making new fighter or bomber, could you provide it with standard missile tubes instead of external mounting or maybe both versions?
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Dragon on November 09, 2013, 08:47:39 am
This one looks like it has tubes under the wings.
Title: Re: Upcoming models (The old Model Release Redux)
Post by: Scooby_Doo on November 09, 2013, 02:11:09 pm
Some of the models have tubes, some have internal missile bays (like the F-22).  A lot depends on how much horizontal space is available on the underside.

This one had enough room for the bay door, but since I already had a vent intake on the bottom half, I modified it into a launcher tube instead.
