Title: MediaVPs Update Halp!
Post by: mjn.mixael on November 26, 2017, 07:07:29 pm
I'm starting to work on a new MediaVPs version. I need you all to help me remember what new ships/weapons/etc need to go in. I've lost my list that I used to keep on my desk... I mean.. it's been over 3 years, sooooooo....

Er.. WAT? No. Like Oddgrim just released a new Bes. I gotta add that. What other new model releases have there been over the last 3 years that I've completely forgotten about and aren't in the current MediaVPs?

Oooooh, I see I see.  I somehow thought you meant that you'd forgotten where different types of files went in VPs.  I was like.... well, here's something I can at least look up quickly.  My bad...    :warp:

Leviathan, Hippocrates, Anuket... uh... Apollo, for the FSPort MediaVPs... that's all I can think of off the top of my head.

Over the past couple years I believe these new models have been released:

GTM Hippocrates
GTF Apollo
GTC Leviathan



Also, if you put the new Leviathan in, could you remove those visible side thrusters?

FSU doesn't manage the FSPort MediaVPs.. you'll need to get the FSPort team to update that one.

So Hippo, Anuket, Leviathan (no Fenris?), Bes. Is that all?

I remember Hades was working on the GTCv Deimos. Was that ever completed?
Title: Re: MediaVPs Update Halp!
Post by: AdmiralRalwood on November 26, 2017, 09:08:06 pm
no Fenris?
Not as far as I know; last I heard, the textures were still a WIP.

Still waiting for SD Demon and NTF Boadicea to receive some love.

We do have a high poly Boadicea.. it needs some work, though.

I Think there is also the two gas miners, but one or both might still be a WIP. Unless i'm mistaken.


Still waiting for the new Orion.

No Orion has made it to the texturing phase to my knowledge. So I won't wait on that. I need to find the status of the Fenris, though.

Does uvmapping count as "the texturing phase"?

I nominate "Demon in the room" as an HLP replacement for the phrase "Elephant in the room" when discussing high-poly upgrades.

A little while back I was working on some modifications to a bunch of the weapon effects and things, mostly for personal use. Things like more visible Shivan fighter lasers, some alterations to the flak effect, prettier Subach and Mekhu bolts, new Kayser effects (though they could use more work); that sort of thing. Oh, and I made Shivan flak guns, although I'm not totally satisfied with them yet. The explosion is just a big flashbulby thing. It looks great, IMO, but I'm not sure it's sufficient. I was trying to do some lightning stuff, but it didn't really work...

Anyway. Would you be interested in taking a look at these and maybe adding them?

I have Boadicea cleaned and halfway-mapped. I even started some texturing, but this part I need to start again with different software.

I will finish it, but with very limited time I have today I don't know when. It's a big project. Don't wait for it with the next release.

I made a SpaceEngine version of StarField.Pof, I can give it to you if you want.

It's NOT Sol, I few to a random place in the Milky Way using SpaceEngine and took a skybox pic.
It's basically just the regular star field but with the Milky Way on it.



Also ancient-shivan war has some awesome warpmap textures, and they are literally just textures so they can easily be dragged and dropped over the old ones.

Sorry for asking

Okay now I am wondering too, it has been very quiet for a while. I am not demanding a new version, just an update on how things are going.

I intend to get this done soon (tm). Currently traveling around Europe, though.

Q. Are there any models that are unreleased so far and get included/finished? I remember there was a new Deimos (probably by Hades) somewhere.

BTW, whenever the Long Range Flak is being renamed and the Sathanas is still there (not renamed) it will have 2 missing weapons, for mv_assets-shp.tbm adds them to Turret 49 and 50 again.

nuDeimos is UVmapped, but not textured as far as I know.
