Modelled for BWO 2 years ago but never finished [same as BWO :P], so I decided to finish it and make GTA/GTVA heavy transport/dropship from it. HTL, PBR-textured, shiny, fancy and ready for deployment to the most hostile enviroments you folks can image :) . Basicly intended to be T-V War era craft, but shall fit to any other setting. Special thanks for Orph3u5 for naming it!

It's quite big. Bigger than Cain actually, but I my rescale it for your needs :]

It worked before but had major clipping issues due to the size of it.

Well, I didn't even think of a rescale option... But this would be awesome!

Just out of interest- you don't consider BWO still alive, right?
Title: Re: [RELEASE] GTT Anteros
Post by: Nyctaeus on February 08, 2018, 10:52:33 am: No. It's dead and it should really remain dead. Some former team members and some very good freders from outside the team exactly know why and it should stay this way.

I managed to obtain permission to release one more model. Both from BlackDove and original autor. It's veeery hi poly and it's vasudan. Will be released when I find some free time to finish new normalmaps for it.

Post by: Nightmare on February 08, 2018, 11:19:44 am: I know this doesn't fit exactly here, but if it's dead, do you think it'd make sense to ask for the release of a BWO dump on their board? This beauty here was hidden for 2 years, and I was told that Raven is an excellent model maker, too...
Title: Re: [RELEASE] GTT Anteros
Post by: Nyctaeus on February 08, 2018, 11:38:18 am: Raven is a master and actually the one who influenced my modelling style the most. And believe me, there are a lot of cool things in BWO. As far as I know, Raven wanted to sell this stuff somewhere, but I'm not sure what really happened to those models. If you want, go ahead and try to ask.

Goober and Raven would have debates on that subject on the board.
Title: Re: [RELEASE] GTT Anteros
Post by: Nightmare on February 08, 2018, 02:39:26 pm: I sent PMs to Revan and BlackDove and asked them for a public statement what will happen with BWO, the models in particular.

But a campain is actually fully retail-quality, with lots of boring and recurrent missions and generic narrative. It represents style of missions typical for early days of FS modding I call Low-Poly Era. BWO is the same story as Scroll but unlike BWO team, Goobed invested lots of time and effort at reworking old missions and recruiting additional freders. Meanwhile BWO was busy making more, and more models. You know which team released a very good project, and which one ultimately failed.

There were numerous proposals of reworking BWO campaign among the years and the names include many prominent, expert-level mission designers. But let's say that BWO team... Did not want to be helped. In a very big shortcut.

Post by: Nyctaeus on February 08, 2018, 08:45:10 pm: In practice too. All locked on BWO SVN probably forever.
