I was going to say some matching freighters would be a good idea.  :yes:

  • A one hit wonder, you still want to touch this.
Well, we can always write Bosch Beer on the top section... though it won't be as impressive as it would've been on the sides.

How much more work would it be if you put six rectangular polygons (two per each section, on opposite sides of course) overlayed to the surface (similar to the insignia system) that would use a transparent logo texture (or even better, part of the base texture rather than a separate texture)? If it were possible to map, say, 40x120 sized corner of the map for the logo and then UVMap that location to the rectangles in the model. That grid-like detail could probably handle a bit of resolution reduction...

....kinda like this:



I knew this was going to happen

Up until last year i always thought bosch beer was only an inside fs2 joke, until last year i drank some too.

Now Deus Ex Machina needs to be updated with that texture.

...and another container type. DEM used cargo2t-01 with customized mapping. Of course, cameo appearances of Bosch Beer containers would likely be appreciable - amongst other stuff like Spoo, Fruity Oaty Bars, and why not a couple real corporations as well...

Good news and bad news.

The good news...



The bad news...

I can't get the Chronos into a useable 3D format. I keep getting 'vertex out of range' errors with 3DS, and I can't find any other format that will convert from COB that Max or Blender can read while keeping the UV coordinates. Can I get some help here?

Way to go Galemp. I'm definetly interested in that medical one. Do let us know when you release them.

It could be cool having the normal texture but with different hazard symbols, so you could have an "explosive" hazard on a crate carrying munitions and etc.

All you have to do is rename the Amazon Advanced.  They're the same thing.

and anyway I need the geometry, not the POF. I have to reapply the maps with my new texture.

Is this compatible withthe lates MEdia.vps? assets i mean?

If so (for my own knowledge of use) it would be a case of replace texture in Fred correct?

This is brilliant. Maybe use the darker colors for more front-line military operations, but even standard sea-going cargo containers have colors and some logos on them. Could add a lot to the 'mysterious' civilian society in FreeSpace.
