It's for the third part of my campaign. It's the first of a few ships I'll be doing.

Something like that  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)
It's more than a resize.
It should have 8-10 turrets in the end.

Very cool, always thought that the horus looked like a cruiser, How do you resize the ships?? and what ever happened to the anicent Fleet? thats about the 4th ship to be made isn't it?

Title: New Cruiser
Post by: Woomeister on May 13, 2001, 06:21:00 am

I convert them to COB and resize them in TS1. Then If I need turrets I add them.

If I can fix the problems there will be. I have a complete model with 10 turrets but it crashes FRED when I try to load it.

I'm guessing that the juggernaut used to be a Hatshepsut and the destroyer was a Serapis.

Title: New Cruiser
Post by: Jabu on May 15, 2001, 11:23:00 am

Both seem to be stretched a bit. And a few ends have been stretched into spikes.

But I like them. Good use of the standard models.

Ok... you have ships, now what about weapons?

Title: New Cruiser
Post by: Woomeister on May 15, 2001, 04:48:00 pm

None of these ships have turrets yet, as the cruiser won't work with them. Once the turrets are done the rest is easy.

That Juggernaut does look a bit too Hetsu-ish...

Why not just make your own origional models? Your textures are good enough that they deserve some really origional models to go on .

Title: New Cruiser
Post by: Woomeister on May 16, 2001, 03:38:00 am

I can't work with TS1. It's lousy for modelling from scratch. Making something as complex as these wouldtake me months just to design them.

Hey Woomeister, I got some ancient style weapons, and in the process of making more for my ancient project, they are based on the orignal ancient weapons project, if you like, i can send them to you when i'm done   (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

oh and BTW i got the AI Thera on my website  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif) (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

That would be great if the turrets worked...
any volunteers? These ships really need turrets or they will just sit there...

Oh yeah nice Cairo reskin Nephilim. I was going to do the same to the Karnak  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

Use blender man, its so easy to learn how to use, at least as far as the model-generation is concerned.

Blender doesn't work properally on my system. The menus disappear and it has a habbit of freezing.

I actually had that problem once or twice myself. It turned out to be my display properties, you might give it a shot. I think that certain screen resolutions give it fits, at least thats what was causing my problems.

True Colour 1024*768
Gives me tons of problems, so does Truespace 1  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

Title: New Cruiser
Post by: Jabu on May 16, 2001, 11:37:00 pm

I only had problems with Blender when it started auto-saving everytime I did anything, using up all my HD space.

BTW. 1024x768 TrueColour was the properties I used to have. Switched to 1152x864 to get some more room, at the slight expense of refresh rate.

I have probs with Blender as soon as it starts.

Try changing your screen resolution to Jabu's, I think that's what I had to do to. I run 1152x864 with 32 bit color and that works for me.

Great textures   (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)  How did /what did you use you make them?(curious)

Can't wait to see those ships in action, I take they'll be pretty powerful?
