Title: GTF Kelpie Completed - Download here
Post by: Taristin on January 23, 2005, 09:42:27 pm: Yes yes... I said I wouldn't make another thread... *hides from Kalifireth*

And I said I'd probably not finish this mesh, but I lied, twice.

(http://dynamic4.gamespy.com/~freespace/forums/attachment.php?s=&postid=609012)

GTF Kelpie

LOD0 - 974 Polies
LOD1 - 508 Polies
Debris - 956 Polies

LOD0 uses a 1024^ map
LOD1 and Debris use a 512^ map

It is fully POFfed, meaning it has everything from the gun points to the subsystems to the paths and the dockpoint, to the moment of Inertia. It should work completely perfectly... barring I didn't make any typos in the tbm file. :)

Included are the tbm, pof, Targa base maps, PCX base maps and glow maps, ship select icon, and Hud shield guage Icon.

Enjoy. Discuss. And list any errors here. (Although I hope there aren't any)

He's posted the darned thing before; you people really should pay attention.

Post by: Ypoknons on January 24, 2005, 02:10:27 am: Cool fighter. A bit monchromatic but then colorful fighters are, well, it's just a matter of style - it's militaristic. Makes me think of an Apollo Mk.II.

Thoughts on little things that would make the fighter even cooler. The number of engines is cool, but I'm not sure how pratical they'd be on a real fighter. The round cockpit is hard to do perfectly, but look at WC Saga - their Thunderbolt has a really cool recessed cockpit and shading that I think would work well for this fighter too, although true your future fighters are HTL with cockpit anyways. The mesh is highly interesting, but you could shade in the "intake" above the cockpit .

And of course, a shinemap would make it something really interesting. Of course, this one's done, so we wanna see more you, Raa ! ;7

Post by: Taristin on January 24, 2005, 07:29:19 pm: I modelled them to be similar, and I tried to map them to look similar, too. :)

Post by: delta_7890 on February 22, 2005, 09:24:35 am: I think it almost looks like an Apollo Mk II

Um...? :wtf:

Never happened for me... and I did test it a few times... :confused:

Post by: Ransom on February 22, 2005, 09:46:46 am: Hmm, I seem to be able to collide with it, but as soon as it gets shot once or twice it crashes.

The Losna crashes in the same way...

Post by: Taristin on February 22, 2005, 10:34:20 am: ...why? I wonder...

Man I hope Styxx fixes his pof converter... :sigh:
I can't think of any reason it would do that. I'll have to have Shadow test the ships I sent him for Origins, too, and see if he's having this same problem.

Post by: Grimloq on February 22, 2005, 09:06:44 pm: o.O how is it that so many MODs people make seem to mirror concept sketches i've made???

this reminds me of the Pyro-NT i drew a while back...\

which is a good thing ;)

Post by: WMCoolmon on February 22, 2005, 09:33:28 pm: Wasn't the Losna put up for download awhile back?

If not, how do I have a copy? :wtf: :p

I HATE THIS TIMEWARP!!!!
Title: GTF Kelpie Completed - Download here
Post by: StratComm on February 22, 2005, 09:33:27 pm: That version isn't finished; I'm guessing Raa has gone and done LODs and other assorted POF data for it.

Timewarp attack!

Yep. LODs, Debris, and full pof data are on the final version that I gave to another user.

I dunno if I should say who, though.

Nope, it has a mass.

Post by: Taristin on February 22, 2005, 10:52:06 pm: I thought it did.

I haven't a clue why it isn't working, though. It works fine for me...

Post by: Taristin on February 22, 2005, 10:57:10 pm: There was no time warp this time.

Frak. I post that, and it ends up above Cobe's post... bugger.

Post by: Taristin on February 23, 2005, 07:41:37 pm: You'd be a fool to sue them. They're providing us with free use of their servers.

Jeez, so many of you people think the world owes you everything... :doubt:

Post by: Taristin on February 24, 2005, 10:45:05 pm: And this is why I ask for thread lockage...

Can a mod just delete the irrelevant posts?

Post by: StratComm on February 24, 2005, 11:00:57 pm: Cobra: shut up. The stupid is leaking out into perfectly respectable threads.
Title: GTF Kelpie Completed - Download here
Post by: InfernoGod on February 24, 2005, 11:06:09 pm: Cobra, I'm not a mediator. I'm attempting to stop something that is ABSOLUTELY stupid, something that nobody cares about (or cares to see, even), and something that will potentially end this thread.
I'm not taking sides with anyone here either, so don't kill me if you're mad. I'm speaking on behalf of the people who are tired of arguments that get threads locked.
So let's get back on topic, please.

Post by: Target on April 02, 2005, 09:31:21 pm: I get the same crash as Ransom. Anyone else?
Title: GTF Kelpie Completed - Download here
Post by: Taristin on April 02, 2005, 10:07:33 pm: Well, perhaps it need Strattcom to recompile it, since when I make new builds of it, I get the same deal (supposedly)

It seems to be trouble with the pof exporter plugin. Either that, or FSO doesn't like something about it.
