Title: Model Request: Field Hangar
Post by: Retsof on December 06, 2007, 09:35:54 pm: I'm working an a campaign, as are most FREDers, that is set only 2 years AC. A new system is being explored and a small field outpost has been set up next to the jump node. As they wouldn't build an Arcadia there and there is no reason to send in a destroyer, i need something that is pretty much a floating hangar. Thanks in advance to whoever responds.

EDIT: I just did a quick sketch of what I think it might look like.

I do have a non-HTL Triton bay, if you want. Twas made by Roanoke back in the day. No turrets or defenses tho.

Post by: Retsof on December 07, 2007, 05:17:09 pm: Well I'm having some trouble finding those, I guess I'll give the triton bay a try.
By the way, how hard is it/how long would it take to HTL it and give it a turret or two, I see such a model as being quite usefull.

EDIT: Please include relevant table entries, I'm not experienced enough to make them up.

However the TRI TDP (http://www.axemspace.com/tri-tdp.html) was given to Black Wolf to UV Map, however I haven't heard anything from him about it. :( (If anyone else wants to finish it, I'd be happy to upload it again)

Post by: Retsof on December 07, 2007, 06:03:09 pm: :confused: Um..... is UV mapping important?
Title: Re: Model Request: Field Hangar
Post by: TrashMan on December 07, 2007, 06:14:59 pm: Yes...very. It's also known as "making the nice texture look right on the ship"
Title: Re: Model Request: Field Hangar
Post by: Retsof on December 07, 2007, 06:31:55 pm: Oh, okay. That would be rather important.
Um... there's no download link fo the TRI TDP

Post by: Axem on December 07, 2007, 07:23:47 pm: Gimme a bit to see if I can find the password to where I uploaded it to. :nervous:

Post by: Hellstryker on December 07, 2007, 07:45:40 pm: I can make you a floating hanger easy. problem is i cant UV map or texture :ick:
Title: Re: Model Request: Field Hangar
Post by: Black Wolf on December 07, 2007, 08:42:10 pm: TRI-TDP is mapped, I think, but I could never get the texture right - I tried a few different methods and it just always looked dodgy. :( Didn't you UV map it though? If not, I have a UVed version somewhere.
Title: Re: Model Request: Field Hangar
Post by: Axem on December 07, 2007, 09:19:18 pm: Nope, never mapped it. (Unless I mapped it in my sleep... :nervous:)

Title: Re: Model Request: Field Hangar
Post by: Retsof on December 09, 2007, 03:27:21 pm: Any Progress? I would like a download link for the Triton hangar. :nervous:
Umm... will I have to make up my own tables for it, 'cause all I have done so far is Modify existing tables.
Title: Re: Model Request: Field Hangar
Post by: Mad Bomber on December 10, 2007, 03:07:01 am: Don't worry, it comes with tables.

PM me to let me know where I should send it.
Title: Re: Model Request: Field Hangar
Post by: Retsof on December 16, 2007, 01:26:37 pm: Did you get the pm and send or is it not coming through in my end?
Title: Re: Model Request: Field Hangar
Post by: Mad Bomber on December 16, 2007, 01:47:42 pm: I sent it already. Several days ago at this point. :wtf:

Hell, I'll post it right here also. It's small enough.
