About 2000 polys.

Not sure how FS the design is, though. Oh well....

Title: Some new creation tingy
Post by: Taristin on April 12, 2004, 08:29:17 am: It's a T-V Hybrid.

Title: Some new creation tingy
Post by: Ryx on April 12, 2004, 09:18:43 am: I'm not entirely sure what type of ship it is.

A transport of sometype? A corvette? Other?

Post by: Jiggyhound on April 12, 2004, 09:19:23 am: i love it. would make a good destroyer/carrier type thing.
Title: Some new creation tingy
Post by: Sheepy on April 12, 2004, 09:27:22 am: i love it, the front reminds me somewhat of the diemos, any chance of a top down view, from the first shot it looks like the top layer is quiet wide, but the others shots say differently.

But it its great as with all your work,

Post by: Setekh on April 12, 2004, 09:31:41 am: I really like the decks. The vertically offset engines provide some interest too, nice one. :)

Title: Some new creation tingy
Post by: KARMA on April 12, 2004, 10:15:35 am: personally it looks like a luxury liner
Title: Some new creation tingy
Post by: DaBrain on April 12, 2004, 10:27:57 am: It should be a very heavy corvette.

Somehow I think this thing should be a fast one.

yeah, to me too.
Title: Some new creation tingy
Post by: Jiggyhound on April 12, 2004, 10:55:43 am: hehe, i did at first :p

maybe it could be a civilian craft of some sort

or a heavy corvette thing with fighters
Title: Some new creation tingy
Post by: mikhael on April 12, 2004, 10:56:00 am: Looks great, but I think there's some disparity of design between the bow and stern. I know you said its a TV hybrid, but the ends don't really... i dunno... flow?

As usual when I see one of your models, Ryx, I immediately wondered what I could do with it. ;)

Actually that was Raa Tor'h. :p

As for the disparity... I couldn't really think of any way to get some engines on there, so I created a new object and booleand that on there. For something different, try to imagine the eninges attached directly to the ("decked") hull. Could also work. Possibly as a budget version of the ship.

Just ask. ;)
Title: Whoa!
Post by: Star Dragon on April 12, 2004, 01:05:13 pm: Outstanding as usual.. BTW from the front it also looks like some type of REF cruiser. Any chance of snagging it for REF?

guess I'll just be satisfied with photoshop for now
Title: Some new creation tingy
Post by: Flipside on April 12, 2004, 04:04:17 pm: At 2000 polys, that's a fine achievement! Can't wait to see that baby textured, and it, I think, needs to be big, I want to be able to feel dwarfed by the decks as I fly between them ;)
Title: Some new creation tingy
Post by: Taristin on April 12, 2004, 04:17:35 pm: I wouldn't mind texturing it. :nod:
Title: Some new creation tingy
Post by: adwight on April 12, 2004, 04:30:08 pm: Hmm, seems a little front heavy to me, but I still like it anyways.
Title: Some new creation tingy
Post by: Unknown Target on April 12, 2004, 05:39:20 pm: I really love that ship!
Title: Some new creation tingy
Post by: Turambar on April 12, 2004, 06:13:02 pm: We'll need some way to blend terran and vasudan on a grand scale, like hexagonal metal plates or earth-tone metal, just make sure it isn't one chunk terran one chunk vasudan or anything

I'm not too picky about names, so if you don't like it - change it. As long as proper credits is given, really.

File contains:

1 .3ds-file.
1 .max-file (version 6!!!)
1 readme file
Title: Some new creation tingy
Post by: Unknown Target on April 13, 2004, 06:34:40 am: Methinks that the ship reminds me of a sword.
Excalibur or something like that would be a nice name :)

Post by: Turambar on April 13, 2004, 03:03:04 pm: are these names taken: Scylla, Charybdis, Amon, Titan, Hera, Athena

Maybe: Scylla- corvette
Charybdis- installation
Amon- fighter
Titan- something bigger than Colossus
Hera- carrier
Athena- interceptor
Title: Some new creation tingy
Post by: Turambar on April 13, 2004, 03:03:53 pm: or maybe this one could be the Athena (Goddess of War (strategy) and Wisdom)

Inferno has a Shivan 'Scylla' corvette, the 'Charybdis' is taken by the Terran AWACS craft, There is a 'Amun' Vasudan heavy bomber, and the 'Athena' is a FS1 era fighter bomber (one of the best light bombers in the game IMHO;) )

AND I'M TAKING 'HERA' FOR MY OWN DESTROYER! :mad2:

Simply awesome. I think it's better than your FSUpgrade capship.

Not the most creative choice of textures, but at least it got some.

LODs next...

Post by: aldo_14 on June 10, 2004, 12:34:46 pm: Nice, but the reps seem high. Albeit I'm bored with FS2 textures nowadays, anyways - so my opinion's tainted.

I'm fairly bored with them myself.

I should learn how to make tileable maps in PS, or something.
Title: Some new creation tingy
Post by: Taristin on June 10, 2004, 01:37:57 pm: Heh. Rip maps from other games. That SW game had good ones that I use.
Title: Some new creation tingy
Post by: Arculis on June 10, 2004, 08:19:51 pm: I'd like to see it looking like a T-V hybrid. Some hex-metal textures would be nice, especially in the very front.

Personally, I'd like to see some more cruisers. It seems like anyone who builds a custom capship wants it to be big and powerful, so new cruisers are scarce. But, at 2k, it seems a bit much for a cruiser. But maybe that doesn't matter with SCP upgrades and faster computers in general.
Title: Some new creation tingy
Post by: WMCoolmon on June 10, 2004, 09:26:57 pm: Looks pretty good. :yes:

Looks like a really big Corvette or a Destroyer though.
Title: Some new creation tingy
Post by: Jetmech Jr. on June 10, 2004, 09:44:40 pm: Destroyer. Just doesnt look like a small ship imo.

Title: Some new creation tingy
Post by: Liberator on June 11, 2004, 01:57:23 am: It does look enormous. The gold tile looks out of place somehow.
