These are my 3 Super Stardestroyers (Executor, Lusankya, Night Hammer) and a ISD.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 


These are all shots in lightwave, none are ready for FS2. Each is about 2000 polys. I think the textures could use work. What do ya think?

Not working on a mod.. just making ships...

The Lusankya and Night Hammer are actual ships. The Lusankya was captured by the Rebels and later dismantled, the Night Hammer is a one of a kind prototype SSD made of stealth armor. Both are from novels, so i dont blame anyone if they dont know em.

ya the giant rebel logo kinda threw me off there. But those are pretty cool. Does it have fully functional shields and shield generators?

As I said, they not anywhere ready for a game yet, they're shots in lightwave. I'm new to FS2 modding. But I hope to have em work accurately.

Yes, actually. I was told by a friend that FS2 can handle models with 2000 polys, if broken into sub-objects.

i remember that when i begun this job, some months ago, the first thing i did after reading some mod manuals was to convert an xwaup ship to pof...it was the tf.
as you maybe know the xwaup's models are created with an "intersecting faces" strategy....
well i didn't know that intersecting polys wouldn't work...i've discovered that in these days reading the board ..
well as far as i can remember the model was working fine in fs2..i mean...no texture shaking and it exploded when hitted....but i must admit that i never checked accurately all the surface of the fighter searching for unhittable regions

it doesn't make any gameplay problem actually, but bad clipping pbs (you see the inside polys you shouldn't see, stuff like that).

so i presume that sometimes it works, most often not, and that it's unpredictable.
last question...does fred have any reliability to the game engine about clipping probs with intersecting polys?
i'm asking this because in this period i don't have my fs2 cds so i'm using only fred for the debug, and i have some old models with intersecting polys that works fine in fred, but i don't know if they will in fs2 also...and since i don't have cds i don't know if i have to redo the old job, as i dare

no, coz I can see polys from the other side of the ship, while looking at a volition made one lol. fred makes things even worse, so I guess your model could work even better in fs2 (don't take that for sure tho)

Your right.... but the ship was destroyed shortly thereafter. So I use the name that was around the longest.
