Anaz, you're not alone; I've always loved the Satis, even if I don't know the reason. Its tech entry says that Terran pilots thought that it was a gunship when they first encountered it; I can easily see why. They're tough little buggers.

Post by: Imagine on May 01, 2005, 10:35:25 pm: Ye the satis is a bit reminiscent of startrek ship.
Nice work in in putting the details in the mesh!
More neon lights! :)

Title: *posts another needlessly large PNG file for the astute amongst us*
Post by: FireCrack on May 01, 2005, 11:03:38 pm: The GTVA originaly thaught the satis was a heavy cruiser when it was commissioned.

And that may not have even been such a big error after all, good job.

Nope - it only looks like it is.

What I can see looks good, but can we get an untextured shot so we can see the geometry?

Post by: Flipside on May 01, 2005, 11:20:37 pm: It probably looked too Terran the right way up, so they just flipped it before converting ;)

This model is far better than the 'satis quo'.

heh.... :)

Post by: WMCoolmon on May 02, 2005, 05:57:51 pm: You should've called this thread, "Satis non est satis" :p

Me likes :yes: The Satis has really good textures. I can't wait to see what it'll look like in-game (and bumpmapped :nervous: )

Throw it into the GIMP and use the magic wand to select the outside, clear it to white, invert the selection and clear it to some variant of black, maybe apply a blur filter to soften any hard edges.

You can use l33t URL hacking sk1llz to get pictures of Shivans and Terrans from the same site.

Post by: Taristin on May 03, 2005, 08:44:45 pm: lol... I dunno if I'll actually do that. :p How would it be to scale? o.O

No excuse now. :p
Title: *posts another needlessly large PNG file for the astute amongst us*
Post by: Taristin on May 04, 2005, 03:15:37 pm: Well, then technically, I wouldn't really even need to do sihlouettes, since they'd take up 3/4ths of the window. :p
Title: *posts another needlessly large PNG file for the astute amongst us*
Post by: Vasudan Admiral on May 04, 2005, 04:21:08 pm: Only height wise, and everyone knows they're tall already, so there'd be no inconsistancy. :p

Post by: StratComm on May 04, 2005, 04:22:22 pm: Taking the inverse of that statement, why does the Satis have floor-to-ceiling bridge windows anyway? Windows should ALWAYS only show the upper half of whoever is inside.
Title: *posts another needlessly large PNG file for the astute amongst us*
Post by: Admiral Nelson on May 04, 2005, 06:14:13 pm: Visibility -- the Satis would have great views of whatever it was trying to dock with /land on with great huge angled windows like that.

After all, why would a space ship have windows at all? :)

Post by: Anaz on May 04, 2005, 06:17:16 pm: goes to prove that command acts like they do in FS all the time. "Oh no! A new cruiser! With a panoramic view window on the front!"

Post by: Taristin on May 18, 2005, 09:26:03 pm: Funny you should ask. I fooled with it a bit more today. I've found Anarchy Online, though, so my time for modding has dwindled to nill, really.

Post by: Admiral Nelson on May 19, 2005, 05:23:50 pm: Aw, c'mon, man, it's much too nice to abandon!! Finish it up THEN go back to Anarchy Online.... :)
