Title: In the cold reaches of space...
Post by: QXMX on July 07, 2001, 11:53:00 am
Everyone needs a place to call home  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

This is the completed modelling and texturing of the GTI Vesta.  It's designed with less populated systems in mind, where it may not be practical to construct a massive Arcadia.

 (http://216.133.163.180/images/station.jpg)

It's made for joint military/civilian use, with several docking ports, as well as some constructs to vessels as large as a corvette.  Destroyers far outsize it however.

Woohoo, I'm happy to say that after eliminating something that was almost unecessary, this eliminated around 100 polys, so down went the shards of death  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)  Strange  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

I've improved it somewhat, and lowered the poly count hella far  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

Now that's cool, and I'll definitively use it in my Descent campaign (I should find a proper name...)  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)
Excellent model  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

Massive Arcadia? This station looks massive... how big (or small compared to Arcadia) is it?

It's roughly Half the size of an Arcadia Lengthwise, and will all the docking structures, it's much smaller.
