Screenies?
-
*sigh* (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,33028.0.html)
I've not played it in game. I don't really play FS anymore...
-
Looks good and (I suspect deceptively) simple to texture.
Gonna make any more? I full support the addition of new species to FS2, of any stripe.
-
Is that an original model or a copy of something else?
-
Somehow they look a bit familiar, but I suppose that's just my mixed-up memory. And perhaps a model overdose caused by trying to catch up with 5 years of FS2_open :D
Looks really smooth and clean, me liiiiikessss. (just too bad the chances of me seeing those glows ingame in the next year are <<< 0.0000001)
-
Dreadfaq; Glowmapping works no matter what; even when shinemapping doesn't.
Kie: AFAIK it's original. The name is all I stole.
BW; Thankie. And Possibly. It all depends. As for it being simple to map, well, I only made the map in the span of ~2 hours. I also made sure to make the UV fairly easy to do, since I hate complex UV maps, when there's no need for them.

Actually, its kinda reminiscent of the gunship from Aliens.

:yes:
I like it. Simple, but effective.
-
Sweet! :cool:
-
's anyone tried it out? And have screenies? No real point in making a new species if no one is going to use them...
-
Should pimp it to the Fred Academy (is it still around?) someone there will use it. :)
I think the images stopped working btw.
-
I like it...I stuck it in a Valkyrie table. Came up with some Imperial Reptan Fighter designation (just so I'd have something to call it...).

EDIT: Not THE best screenies, but maybe it'll motivate some more people to try it out.:)
-
@Grug: ? They load for me, or it may be in my cache. I dunno.
-
Hmm. Thanks, Solatar, but what happened to the thrusters? :confused:
-
*looks*
In the model, it seems there's a thruster, but it's not textured.
-
I don't think I follow you? Is that a failure of the game engine, or of my model, then?
-
I can't find actual thruster models in modelview. I can see the thruster points, but that's it.
I'm not sure where the error lies, but other ship's thrusters show up fine.
EDIT: Like so...

-
Um... That's what I meant. I don't make actual geometry thrusters, since I think they look ugly, especially with long plumes. :)
-
It is all becoming clear now.:)
I'll have to look into why they aren't showing up then.
EDIT: It appears to be a bug with my SCP build. The thrusters only show up if I'm flying the default ship for the mission.
I named it the Komodo for my tables. I wouldn't mind seeing a reptilian species with pink lighting and based off Japanese history. You could make their homeplanet water with very little land. Just a thought I'm throwing out, it's your work. Great stuff...

Ooh. That is indeed a beautiful image. :) Thank you very much!
Now to figure out a bomber-type vehicle, and some capships...
-
Are you planning to go all out on this species (transports, cargo, etc. in addition to a fighter, bomber, and a couple caps)?
-
It's a possibility. I've done so for Shadowwolf (fighter, bomber, freighter, capship, cruiser, support ship, cargo unit), I can do so here, too.
-
Nice stuff. :) :yes:
I love that background? Is that from media366?
I recall Singh? posting backgrounds for Fred a while back. Wonder if they're still about. I forgot to save them. :(
-
Background is Hell's Inferno from this thread (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,32341.0.html).
-
Awesome stuff. Highlighted.
-
Ooh! My first highlight! *wipes away a tear*
I'm so happy! :D

Then I say do it. New factions/races are always welcomed by me;)
-
Eye candy!
Is it a fighter or cap ship? Couldn't tell...
-
:wtf: :cry:
-
:smack:
-
It's a fighter... :sigh:
-
Looks nice.
They do look like my idea of a Covenant fighter though....

Pics?

Hey Raa,
Would it be alright to snatch this ship up as a future Gorn fighter for Trek? It definately looks reptiel-like and I also like the high techish feel although it screams simplicity.. Plus the Big Lizards need something futuristic...
I tried it out and noticed the thrustes seemed really big so maybe I'll make them 75% to 50% size and also cause it is soo dark I may lighten the texture contrast a bit if that's ok with you?

Glad to know somebody's using them :D ;)
-
Ah thankee. That was a brilliant idea Singh, I love those background setups. :D :yes:

Be my guest. I'm more than happy that someone'll be using it. :)
