Also, this is on my geocities server which is not known for its reliability. If somebody would upload this somewhere better and post it for me, that would be great. ;)

EDIT: Kudos Ryx :)
EDIT 2: Thanks Virtu. Lookie! Now it's fixed to VBB! Still from the book of Steak though :p

Post by: Corsair on April 20, 2002, 11:30:02 am: As for the lighting: I wasn't trying to make it look like just the sun was doing the lighting. The capital ships at least are supposed to be leaving the dark of the planet (VWBB/VBB) for the light of HLP. :D

OOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Darkage: You had that original quote and I changed it to Steak but DID YOU MEAN THE vbb OR THE vwbb? :confused:

Windrunner said it perfectly. It's us and Steak is leading us away from the dark BBs to the light HLP planet. ;)

Actually, the Orion IS supposed to be Thunder. If I had a model of the GTAD Thunder or whatever you call your flagship, I would have put that in. :p :ha:

*Emerges from the dark cave...*

I've just spent the last hour sketching out my idea... I can promise you this, It'll be longer and more elaborate than any of my other toons! But atleast in my eyes, its a winner. :D But for now, in order to get this to you by tommorow, I shall spend the better part of tonight and tommorow doing this! :)

But if we go that slow ( GVA Setekh speed) I will get to our destination at leats ten times and go back before the rest of the fleet arrives.

Not a GVA Setekh but a GVA Steak. Modified to go much faster without losing sensor capabilities. I heard it has something to do with Crystalline Arrays...:D

Post by: Corsair on April 20, 2002, 09:17:06 pm: Well I could've put in a model of everybody's ship, but that would take forever and it would be the size of a Century Battle. This way it fits nicely onto my desktop. :p

If you really want something like that, get Steak to do it. ;)
Title: HLP's beginnings (render)
Post by: Grey Wolf on April 20, 2002, 09:19:54 pm: You couldn't have put in the Apollo Prototype anyway, I have the only copies. [:thepimp:]Here's a pic:

Post by: Setekh on April 21, 2002, 01:45:07 am: This render, is :ha::D:yes:. Except I'm not so sure about the "VWBB" bit, maybe the VBB would have been more appropriate. I just hope Ice doesn't come here and stamp on me. ;)

Well done. I have it in my to-do list to get all the staff and as many community flagships as I can, and quite possibly stick them in CB3. Keep your eyes peeled. :nod:

Well, they can't render you unless you make your dGOU model public domain... or point them to the Oriskany, if that's the one you prefer... ;)

They did perfectly fine without having a Aquila model.... ;)
Title: HLP's beginnings (render)
Post by: Fineus on April 21, 2002, 04:57:30 am: Thats because they could argue they were referring to the GTAD Thunder - based off the Orion hull. Besides, we want that model of yours ;)

Meh. I thought it would go better in the Book of Steak. It definitely said VWBB though...I'll change it. :D
Title: HLP's beginnings (render)
Post by: Corsair on April 21, 2002, 10:21:32 am: There, I changed it to VBB but left it in Steak. :p
When I was fixing it, I was going to put some more ships in (A Sathanas for Carl, a Lucifer for various other Shivans, Grey Wolf's Apollo prototype) but I decided against it cuz it just wasn't looking right. I'm gonna leave it at this for now, and just wait for Steak's CB3 for all the ships :D
Title: HLP's beginnings (render)
Post by: Shrike on April 21, 2002, 11:46:05 am: Considering at that time, there was pretty much just Setekh, Thunder and I, having other 'admin ships' wouldn't make a great deal of sense. ;)

Thunder! It's all your fault!
Btw, Grey Wolf, I think that model is great...I just couldn't get it to look good in the render. A question about it actually. Does it have for exhaust ports like the Apollo or only two?
Get Setekh to Steakify it. :D
Title: HLP's beginnings (render)
Post by: Corsair on April 21, 2002, 09:10:35 pm: (http://www.3dactionplanet.com/hlp/hosted/the158th/misc/Exodus-jpeg.jpg) Here it is in its final form. I added the Iceni for Shrike and I raytraced all the capships. It looks much smoother now, although I'm not very happy with the angle of the Orion. Any more comments?
Title: HLP's beginnings (render)
Post by: Setekh on April 22, 2002, 12:33:44 am: Heh, that's better. This can't be Steakified though, it'd be much better completely redone; wait for CB3.

PS. You should change the quote to Darkage 3:19, though. Cross-quotes, remember? ;)
