Title: Who wants to finish off my models?
Post by: Colonol Dekker on January 02, 2010, 05:31:00 pm
I'm compiling a model dump of a few dozen cobs and scns. These date back to pre-2000, and I need a clean slate to organise my old Nova Imperia mod.
 
I'll upload them later as i'm posting from my phone.

edit--- told ya so!

can you rather export to obj or vrml? a proper working truespace is rather hard to get a hand of...

3.2 isnt availble anymore and 7.6 now comes without the model side, so any decent exportage is out of the way completely.

How can I know, I'm using XP.
It worked for me on Win XP, so maybe it will also work on Vista.
If not, you may try to emulate XP (are there any XP emulators for Vista?).

It works on 7 32. So vista should be able to handle it.

RAGGGEEEE!!!

Why do people use .cob? Seriously, there's a massive variety of file formats FAR superior to that madness. If you can export to .obj, we might be able to forgive your NTF advocacy, Dekker...  :P

I think someone said it wouldn't work with x64 though... never tested it though.

Title: Re: Who wants to finish off my models?

Nah not that, just wanted some feedback on them.
Title: Re: Who wants to finish off my models?
Post by: pecenipicek on January 05, 2010, 06:18:50 am
well, most are relatively decent, but you didnt include anything even resembling a texture at all, sooo :p
Title: Re: Who wants to finish off my models?
Post by: Colonol Dekker on January 05, 2010, 06:57:46 am
Well I didn't texture them is why :p
 
I want the Galahad and lance torpedo especially finished.
That was going to be a premier thing.

The next thing you should work on is ditching TrueSpace.  :p

...Think of it as a woman you meet in a bar. She's fun for a while, but then you just need to move on...

(I'm not saying that I'm that way - I'm not. But I get the impression you are...  :p)
Title: Re: Who wants to finish off my models?
Post by: Colonol Dekker on January 05, 2010, 11:14:39 am
You get the impression because I make such a big imprint. ;7
 
I'm learning Max to a useful degree though, currently I just tweak truespace made models which I convert with lithunwrap.
 
Give it a few months and i'll be scratchbuilding models in it.
 
Hence the dump. :yes:

Nobody interested at all?
No such thing as bad feedback as far as i'm concerned.

While we could download your filedump and HAVE TO deal with .cob files, we would probably rather not. Thus, posting pictures would be a really swell idea...

That said, have you ever heard of the "Snipping Tool"? If applicable, here's a link:

http://microsoft-snipping-tool.software.informer.com/

Doing a search on that software might also prove valuable. It reminds me a lot of Snagit, which I used in high school. It might even be developed by the same company... Heck, your little Win7 netbook might even have this software: it's pretty simple, after all. Screenshots made easy...  :rolleyes:

Sod that. I've got photoshop and flash cs4 on my netbook. Althoug to be fair win7 paint.exe is actually a pleasure (apart from viewing file info and resizing).
 
I'll prepare some screenies tomorrow.
 
 
Although you can all view the models in PCS2 :)

:bump:

Found an old .scn of a destroyer concept with turrets. Non textured. I don't roll that way til the models done.

It's up for grabs, but you NEED truespace :p

Bump. . . .
 
I noticed some downloads have taken place! Any feedback?
Title: Re: Who wants to finish off my models?
Post by: Getter Robo G on February 03, 2010, 06:18:56 pm
I will only comment on the ones I like: So I am stealing them...

Lance - looks like an awesome cap missile!

Janus Salvage F3 model looks like one hell of an assault bomber!

Cap-Miss: nees some simplifying or just lose the fins

 Jbomb looks like a possible ship tender, needs reworking

Jscout versions: gave me some ideas for a similar mesh as yours seems really rough still and needs serious polishing.


Overall nice collection. Glad you made it available!

Post by: Colonol Dekker on February 04, 2010, 01:53:26 am
I'm pleased and looking forward to seeing these get some dedicated parenting after being subject to my drunken abuse. . .
 
The big Lance bomb was made to work I tandem with that big bomber. The Galahad I think. I envisioned it being locked externally. Or as a seperate pof/new class which would undock when secondary fire was pressed, then tear off towards the target. Cruise missile style.
 
Thanks again for the interest ;)
