you should add an edge in the middle of the sheild panels and make them a bit more rounded,
like from
_______
| |
-------
to
/\
/ \
/ \
| | (not that extreem though)
------
and map it so the UV is mirored from one side to the other
and make them all rotate together.
MHO
and that sheid mesh won't work, needs to be triangulated.

I could roundify the shields easily, but I'm trying to keep the polygon count lowish. Also, 3ds will/should make it triangular automatically, but I can do that easily enough. I have to wait for Styxx to get TS back on his machine anyhow.
As for the radiators, it's a single object so it should rotate as one. If I run into problems, well, it didn't take me long to make at all so I can fix it easily.

well what I'm sugesting would only add 4-12 polys, but it's your baby.

How many beams has it got?
2 standard AAA beams, each with a 200' arc facing directly up and down.

Hey, do you think if I mailed you the .3ds mesh, you could load it in TS and convert it to pof for me?
-
I could try.

Hm, I guess they won't know what you're talking about, but that's true. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

Yep...
No clue what your talking about...

My brother (Levyathan) makes MODs for System Shock 2 (where the nameless main charachter - the player - is known on the community as Googles), and we're actually planning some interesting additions to the Machina Terra Project to be created over the System Shock 2 engine. Anyone here played Shock 2?

nope (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/frown.gif)

no!

Damn! No one has played it. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/frown.gif)
It's a great game. Buy it. Or even better, download the demo ("http://www.gamespot.com/rpg/sshock2/demos.html") first, to see if you like it. You will like it. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)

I played it. It scared the hell out of me... and then some...

I played Dark Project, from the same staff and using the same engine. Most frightening game ever and that's good (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif) (I love DP, too bad I couldn't buy the second one (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/frown.gif) )
