Hawt. Ness. Now this is a Demon. :D
-
:yes: :yes:
-
woohoo :D
-
yay!
-
weatherop is gonna be pissed
-
This was around way before Weatherop started his....... interpretation.
-
:yes: Did you have to start over?
Crit: I dunno about the girders on the tail end of it. I've always intepreted those dark lines as recessed, with the lighter center line flush with the rest of the surface.
-
Yup..I had to start over..
And I extruded those griders for rendering "show-off" purposes only.
Didn't save the scene after that since I wasn't completely satisfied.. I still have a lot of things to do ;7
-
Now this is a good direction. Make sure to preserve the nicely armored look, which you have so far done. Eagerly awaiting WeatherOp...
-
Small update..working on turrets and the lower side now.. :D

WTF?!?!? :wtf:
Some wierd error messed up the whole rear section! Half the vertex are mising! :mad:
EDIT: Oh well, it's not that bad.. I'll have it fixed in 15 minutes.... :o
-
Only thing thats not looking right to me atm (talking of the areas where it shows youve worked ofc), are the "plate like" things on the side of it. Their looking a bit terranish atm imo
Maybe make them on the same style as you made the head?
-
weatherop is gonna be pissed
Nonsense, it gets me working where I should be at, BTRL. ;)
-
More girders! /o\
-
Nonsense, it gets me working where I should be at, BTRL. ;)
Now thats the sort of attitude people should have :)
-
$%*!V!!*! :mad:
That wierd bug appeared again and messed up the whole lower section of the largest spike (the griders). I had to re-do it THREE times.. and I was so frustrated after the 3rd re-do, that I saved over the previous scene before I copied some other changes, like turrets and the underbelly...
So I had to do THAT again...:hopping:
I finally managed to ix it all and do some more work on the rear end..
New images in the first post!
-
Should probably stop using trueSpace.
-
Been using it for 6 years..this is the first time something like this happened...
anyway, ina day or two I should be finished with the mesh itself...
Would anyone be willing to texture it, so I don't have to ? (and so I can move over to the HTL Typhon and some vasudan-shivan hybrid destroyer)
-
Typhon!? Typhon!? Awesome! :D
-
Vasudan-Shivan hybrid destroyer??? Such as, or thats a secret???
-
I'ts no secret.. all these ships were in the works when my HDD kicked the bucket.
I figure when I'm re-doin one, I might do the others too..
I don't feel comfortable showing the HTL Typhon yet and I still havn't started on the hybrid..
b.t.w. - I might be finished with the mesh by tonight if all goes well :D
-
Can you share your ideas on how to approach the Typhon? It's one of the iconic Freespace ships, but the original has a suck model and suck texturing.
-
*PIC OF TYPHON REMOVED, NEW THREAD STARTED*
I'm 99% done with the Demon.. just a few more tweaks and it's done (currently, unoptimized 6800 polys :D )
(http://img201.imageshack.us/img201/2669/deamonnew6jm8.th.jpg) (http://img201.imageshack.us/my.php?image=deamonnew6jm8.jpg)
Anyone want to try and texture the thing?
-
Oh, C'mon! :nervous:
I REALLY don't feel like texturing the thing ATM and it's a shame to keep this thing on the shelves collecting dust...
-
I dont like the changes to the typhon so far. Looks more like you made it fat, than anything else...
-
I made a new thread for hte HTL Typhon with a newer render, so let's reserve this thread for the Demon, shall we? ;)
-
Hey, You posted pics (which, might I add, arent showing up in your other thread for some reason) so nyah
-
I'm pretty much done with the Demon mesh...anyone want to texture it?

****TRUESPACE SCENE WITH THE SHIP****
http://www.hades-combine.com/web/hosted/fow/newdeamon.scn
-
looks awesome...someone get freespaceking on this
-
Way past cool, can't wait for this !
-
Awesome, but I still don't like the girders.
-
I texture it.
:)
-
You sure you can manage?
I put it up for download, a truespace scene - ship is made of several parts (and some are split in half).
So that menas:
half a head
half the upper body with two lower spikes
half the rear part (the arch-thing and 3rd spike)
underbelly
main turret pedistals
tubes and base for beam cannons on head
spine thingy
top engine "stripes"
-
freespaceking deserves some kind of award for highest signal to noise postings ever! :yes:
-
yeah, at very least he deserves a custom title.
-
Yeah. The guys a very good texture artist!
-

hi,
yeah support this suggetion, because his work is really great.
but is a little bit offtopic.
nice work trashman, looks really good and great.
Mehrpack
-
Yikes. Uh, Trashman, I can see where you combined the two halves of the body in the bottom pic. :nervous: (Actually, it's pretty obvious in the top shot pic too. :nervous: )
-
I havn't merged it yet. Made only half of it and then mirrored it for rendering presentation purposes.
figure whoever wants to texture it will have it easier if he has to o only half of it...
-
freespaceking says he'll do it.
-
could you uv map it
-
I'd hate to sound like a killjoy, but the detailing of the girders make it look very... Terran.
-
Fsking.....any word on the beast?
-
^ There. 2 posts above. ;)
could you uv map it
-
AFAIK - *somone* told me he'll do it, I recall sending the model over...
MENTAL NOTE TO SELF: DON'T erase PM's!
Just peachy... :hopping:
-
OK then, Vasudan Admiral, when are YOU going to finish?! :P
-
I'm taking the battle to HLP. Finish the HTL Valkyrie, Vasudan Admiral!!
-
I'm taking the battle to HLP. Finish the HTL Valkyrie, Vasudan Admiral!!
Shut up, will you? He's only one guy.
-
Shut up? Me? YOU ARE TAKSHI'ING ON ME??!!
-
I don't know what Takshi'ing is, but I'm telling you to calm down about the Valkyrie. :)
-
Blah. He needs to finish it before I kill him. :mad2:
-
:wtf: People have been getting very strange round here recently. I was pointing out that people seemed to have missed fsking saying he was stuck. I was definitely not saying I was or intended to start working on the demon. :p
-
Shut up. :P Stop messing with my head!
-
HTL Demon? Did I hear HTL Demon?
*pulls out M60*
-
Then it will have to wait.... I got a dozen ships or so to finish for FOW3, nevermind all the FREDing for misions....
-
Shut up? Me? YOU ARE TAKSHI'ING ON ME??!!
I hate how everyone always flames takashi. Seriously, just quit bugging him :rolleyes: .
-
Well, since he hasn't been posting lately, we shouldn't.
But I feel justified about flaming him, as do the rest of them. If he posts again and doesn't show the intelligence of a rock, we shouldn't flame him. :P
-
You don't have to worry about takashi posting, he got banned from HLP around 2 weeks ago. He made a statement about it on game warden.
-
You don't have to worry about takashi posting, he got banned...
HALLELUJAH!
-
Oh ok, it's fine then. Sorry 'bout the mix up.
*goes off to find statement
-
Was it a perma ban?
-
His statement is right here -> http://www.game-warden.com/forum/showthread.php?t=4121
-
Apparently he got IP-banned.
i can see being banned form HLp, but an IP ban so i cant download or even access the wiki/hosted sites is a bit harsh. i dont even know excactly what spam is, and dont even know proper forum conduct (there ought to be a readme or something on it).
And is clueless...
trolls are people who refuse to show who they realy are and instead make up a fake self to fit in? seems kinda normal too me...or just those paranoid people who tend to think the admin is president or something. as for me, im just fearful of unknown target.
...of what's really going on.
Trolls are people who log on to forums deliberately to cause arguments for no reason other than cause they like pissing people off.
:lol:
Hallelujah praise the lord!
EDIT: Oh, and ROFL @ your face.
:lol:
-
1. What has this to do with the HTL demon?
2. He got IP banned? Damn, that IS too harsh....
-
What happens when his IP changes/he goes to a new computer/internet service provider?
-
he logs back in? Oh..the horros... :rolleyes:
Anywayz, anyone interested in skinning (mapping, texturing) the bad boy?
-
he logs back in? Oh..the horros... :rolleyes:
That's the point. What do we do then? :shaking:
-
That's the point. What do we do then? :shaking:
Err.... Ban him one more time ? :D
-
:bump:
The link to the HTL Demon is dead...
-
It wasn't that great anyway. Some of the screenshots on pages 2 and 3 are still there.
-
Doesn't mean it couldn't be fixed...and I liked it.
Just because you don't doesn't mean that it's not worth anything.
-
So did I, at least it has a high-poly model to mess with, I still don't see what was wrong with it.
-
One of these days I'll re-upload it...
Every time I get back to work on it, it's behind irritates the hell out of me. I just don't know what to do with it. I tried with some gridery structure, but it didn't seem right.

Thank God.
I hate girders on Shivan ships...

We know, Snail, we know. You've said it over 9000 times, we know.
-
... I didn't...
-
"Noone cares about YOU!"
But seriously, I don't get what the **** is wrong with girders on Shivan ships - the ones in the Ravana look absolutely fine. They don't look non-Shivan at all.

That's, you know, your opinion, so uh. Yeah.

"Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man..."
The man in the black pajamas. Worthy ****ing adversary.

That damn ol' hooligan, carvin' "Z's" everywhere...

Yeah, you can argue to the moon and back, not changin' my opinion. :)

Mexican Gentleman 1: "Who the hell are you? Zorro?"
Mexican Gentleman 2: "No. I'm Antonio Banderas!"
[swordfight ensues thereafter]
-
And my opinion is at least it's HTL, I'd rather see this done than never see the Demon HTL'd.
-

Yes, that. If people don't like it, they can always extract the original model from the retail data and override the HTL one with it.
-
K, here's the scene...methinks this is the latest one:
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?cw1jmxhiu2q
Hm...IIRC, I did use shortened names for some FS textures, for 3D Max import/export. Maybe I should include them in the file too?
-
Gah. I just found out that Blender doesn't import SCN files >.<
-
Trashman, I think having the download in a format like obj or 3ds would make it much easier for other people to do anything with it, as most other modeling applications have no way of importing scn.
-
OK, hold on...let me see what I can do.
EDIT:
Here, some .cob files
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?y42mgkzynmj
I'll make 3ds files if needed later
-
I wonder why you split it up into parts?
Also, they seem to be COB files, not OBJ.
-
Ups... why the hell did I write obj? :wtf:
Why did I split? It's easier to make a ship in sections. It's also easier to export/import into 3D Max
