Title: Got board, made this.
Post by: HotSnoJ on November 09, 2002, 02:38:04 am
For those of you who say Blender sucks, I agree sort of. But to those loyal fans of it I give you the GTF Ulysses in the .blend format!

Download the GTF Ulysses! (http://www.planethardwar.com/~hwcomic/FSBlender%20site/GTF_Ulysses.rar)

Did it in under 6 hours too :P! I'm going to start working on fighter02 now.

Dang RGBA (Red, Green, Blue, & Alpha) setting I should remember to set it to RGB next time.

Oh ya, the grey dots are suppose to be stars, that is if the alpha setting wasn't on and turns the black BG invisible.

The PVF Anubis. I also turned off the RGBA, so now you can see the stars better :D! I also had to do a little bit more UV mapping on this one cuz VRML sucks for the converting I'm doing.

And under four hours too :D. Of course you gotta remember I have a slow comp and I was reading emails too. ;7

Next : the SF Dragon. OHHHH AHHHH. I might not have it done until Monday 'cuz I'm going to Minneapolis/St. Paul for the the weekend to watch the Viking's lose :nod:.

He's happy because he's learning how to model relatively well.  If he can recreate the V ships, presumably he is excited because he has the potential to make news ones at that level of quality.  Showing them to us is the natural expression of his enjoyment of and happiness regarding the situation.

Exactly, It just seems that, having done two of them, he might want to try his hand at original designs, or at least something we might not have seen before. Wasted talent, otherwise.

Um... it's a conversion.  That Ulysses has exactly the same bit of fubared-uv (next to the missile bit) as the :V: model.  And I can;t see the point of keeping that.......

?? you lost me. I said their are conversions. I converted them from COB to VRML to .blend. Which I might add is not all that perfect or easy.

Dudes, he has to start somewhere. Better playing with actual, decently-made models than creating the Untextured Sphere of Doom and pushing it like it's the greatest thing since the combination monocular and radio. He's learning the ropes of his program and presumably how to texture. We've all been there, but it doesn't mean that others don't need to.

Pretty good for a conv, actually.

To do that you'd have to make it so that the textures are shadeless. The textures are viewed like they would be in PSP or something. No lights effect them.

I finally got the Lucifer done. I would have done the GTD Orion but I'm having trouble with trueSpace. I pretty much had to reUV map this thing cuz Blenders texturing controls aren't that great for multiple-texture-maped objects (as is VRML). This version of the Lucifer is unturreted 'cuz of the texture map problems I'm having. Though I will someday have one done.
