Post by: StratComm on June 01, 2002, 06:22:54 pm: You might either extend your hyperspace cone to more of a distnct point or make sure that it is black space behind it. I'm assuming that there is a hole there as it stands now.

Yup....and it also gives abit of the feeling that it smashes into your monitor. I'll give it a shot to animate it properly.

Post by: Nico on June 02, 2002, 07:46:42 am: try tutorials :)
for exemple, if you use 3dsmax, go to 3dcafe.com , free section, and do the shark tutorial, good basis to make low poly models ( forget the last part if you're not interested in high poly meshes). anyway, for any 3d prog, go there, there's a lot of tuts for a lot of 3d packages :nod:

Post by: Stunaep on June 04, 2002, 07:22:35 am: This is excellent indeed. The first picture could use better anti-aliasing though, the further part of the ship looks way too artificial.

The second one, is... what can I say. A1-SUPAR

Not having LW isn't an excuse. There are conversions of it all over the net.
