Title: 3rd Gen ship
Post by: aldo_14 on March 31, 2002, 10:28:04 am

Ok....I decided i might as well show i haven't been totally idle for the past few weeks.  This is my 3rd MAX-made ship.  I kind of regard this as 3rd generation (2nd being the Reciprocity ships up to the Reshef & Surt).... i've tried to get everything done well here - mapping, LOding and even adding insignia.

I think these are the final maps, I've kind of ran out of stuff to add at the mo.

I did actually intend to keep this secret, but I'm pretty proud of it, and I wanted to show off.  so there :ha: :cool:

awesome;)

(the only part that i don't like are the "panels" that seems air duct in the front section of the engines,
it's more due the geomery than the map as far as i can see, but you may try to split those panel to follow the geometry

I can do good texturing too you know styxx:mad: just give me some time for one model and my textures can be really good...

BTW the ship is awsome :wink: :yes: , and it looks like some sort of police bonarges. :p so make some sort of campaign with Police ships. :D

personally, i hated the Boanerges, so i guess my dislike for the original monstrosity detracts from my appreciation of this ship, but DAMN! thats awesome.  How do you make textures like that?

Aldo, that's SWEET. It makes me think of a heavily armored dolphin of all things. I love it. Perhaps a heavily armored killer whale. :D

Post by: Razor on April 01, 2002, 05:11:22 pm

It is a good model but it is too colerfull. Maybe you should add a bit more darker textures to make it a bit scarry perhaps, so that it can strike fear into the hearts of Nightmares. By the way, I doubt that they have hearts. :doubt:

here you go...I cashed Kazan's PCS HOWTO thread:

Q) What is, and how does POF Constructor Suites's "AutoInsignia" feature work?
A) AutoInsignia is a feature that allows INSG data to be created in the modeling environment by creating a PLANE (make sure it's a plane), triangulating it (make sure it's triangulated). The modeller should then texture it with a 'generic squadlogo' the way they want it to look at group it with a light and name it "InsgLOD[UU]" [UU] is the LOD number of the insignia and IS USED. Once you have all that done simply place the insignia where it goes on the hull and glue it on [like a LOD or a debris piece]

Based off this, but with a little alteration to the rear (which wasn;t visible, anyway), and a 2 seater cockpit like the Zeus.

I guess this is the original Boanerges concept - personally, I prefer it over the design V settled for.

well, actually, you can find almost all those concepts in the VP files, save for 3 or 4.
I plan to make additional shivan concepts.
