Title: ICD Stock
Post by: Stryke 9 on September 18, 2001, 04:33:00 pm

One of the things I love best about RDS... is that I have access to tons of ship stock models that Truespace lacks! And they're (more or less) cool!  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)
Aah, laziness is a gift...

ICD ___ (RDS designation is Orion, this is clearly not acceptable)
The ICD ___ is a sturdy light cruiser which can be produced by the dozen n CSI shipyards. These possess a fair challenge to both fighters and other medium-sized ships, particularly when in groups.

and for a quite medium quality model, quite a big polycount too I'm afraid... you better train and make models by yourself  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

This ain't the best, simply the one that looks most FreeSpace- the rest are more... well... something else.

And I do do my own models. They get mocked. I cry.  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

BTW: actually quite low-poly, RDS rendering makes curved surfaces smoother automatically, if you tell it to.

yeah, the surfaces, ok, that's called gouraud shading (or phont, or metal, whatever the kind). but look at the edges. Just tell the polycount to be sure  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

Looks great, but shouldnt it be the ICC instead of ICD?

I can't get an exact count on the polys (no TS to covert yet, and RDS is built for comps fast enough that it doesn't usually matter- no counter. I'd give a rough estimate of 1500-, certainly no more... and I'd trim off the unnecessary bits beforehand.

True. ICC. And Unidan, you have not seen my heavy ships...  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)
