Title: A matter of Interest...
Post by: Kamikaze on February 12, 2002, 12:44:00 am
 I have a lot of campaign ideas in my jiggled up brain here and want to actually do something. ( worthwhile to the community  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif) )

So I am wondering if any modelers could at all lend a hand I as I have almost no experience in modeling. (well thats a lie but I can't model worth a nickel... make that a penny)

If you want info as to exactly what I might want to do or if you want preliminary information... mail me at [email protected]

hehe I have the same problem, unfortunately. I think that it is still quite possible to make a good campaign without using many custom models though.  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)

At the end of the day, you can make a campaign without new ships, but you can't have one without missions.

the best way to learn is try, i went through the same path with the same problems, but now its easy for me.  Check the ITN Models thread in this forum.

I would teach though I don't know modding myself, only Flash, Photoshop and a few others.

Actually, I agree.  I only started modding because I'm useless at FRED.

i have no idea what he just said...for modding, i recomend 3d studio max for the initial modeling and then texturing with truespace 5.  Teaching is not one of my strong points, but i can say this: beware of overlapping polys and intersecting polys.  Starting with a box and extruding is what i've been told.
