FUC*ING AWESOME :yes:

Galemp's version looks even bigger and more detailed, even if it's "just" remapped.

Good model, but I prefer the old, low-poly one. Hull builded from few huge blocks fits Orion more than large number of smaller 'boxes' IMHO.

The turrets are ugly. But even though I wrote this, the model itself is superb. Two thumbs up, at least

That is just outstanding! :)

There is also an error just to the lower left of the "GTD Galatea." It's blank.

you know one of the things that the model realy needed was better antenia greebleing, I just sort of threw them together hapazardly so I would have something there, it could realy use better anteni, both in the one spot were there is that big com center in front of the fighter bay/launch ramp thing, and a few other places along the hull, also it'd be nice if this model would eventualy make use of the detail box code (detail object, only render when your close enough to them) but I guess I'll have to do that myself because I doubt anyone else knows how to do it.

I think I do.  I don't know the table semantics, but I think I have the general idea of what I'd need to do to the model.  I just haven't had time to poke at this stuff recently.  As of right now, most of the antenna are configured as destroyable untargetable subobjects, though I didn't make a table alteration to take this into account and so they don't do anything at the moment.  My big goal was to have a working version in mv_models 3.6.6, and that's been accomplished.  Beyond that, I'll get to it eventually but it isn't the highest thing on my priority list right now.

Oh, and since the Orion has no less than 28 such objects, I'm going to need the limit on subsystem total hp removed.  I don't want to weaken anything else in order to have these extra things around.
