MY idea for a Terran Knossos
It's kind of a cross between something in the DVD Menu of "The World is Not Enough"  and my trying to imagine things anime style.  Again, sorry for those who can't view the image.

You got the anime styling down right. How big is it? I assume those plates rotate madly around it?

Its gorgeous.

Looks like the Angelfire logo. And yes, I copied the link into a fresh browser session.

Looks good (though I wonder what prevents those plates from simply spinning off into the void).  When are you going to release it?

The same thing that kept the Knossos from slowly drifting apart in eight component pieces. PFM.

MY idea for a Terran Knossos
eh, The outer ring (the plates) and the inner ring will spin in opposite directions, like the Knossos.  Not sure when I'm gonna release it.  I gotta redo parts of it.  But once that's done, soon as I learn how to pof edit, I'll release it.

[edit] And I have to figure out how to make the sub-objects right.  (I know, there's a turret tutorial that partially explains it, but I'm screwin' it up somehow)

1613, according to ModelView, but there's a few that have to come out... if I can figure out how to delete things in TS

click point edit faces and keep the buttpn pressed. move the mouse up til it says point edit faces again. now mark the poly you want to erase. click point edit faces again and select delete face. or simply press delete

If it is a object you want to erase the simply pres delete when you have the base object selected.

Man didn't you know that Angelfire doesn't like you to put the pics you uploaded on to their comps to be image tagged to other sites! They'll close your account, they've done it to me for that.

Get a new host here. They don't care about the image tagging.
I have big plans, now if only I could see them through.

Try "refresh". The Angelfire image is probably in your browser cache.

MY idea for a Terran Knossos
If I ever get the website up for my campaign, I'll host there.  1 question though:  

When I made this, I did it in Blender.  The three rings are separate models, and I can't quit figure out how to make the outer ring and the inner one submodels.  I've tried the turreting tutorial, but, unless I'm doing something wrong, it's not quite coming out right.  

[edit] Nevermind, got it.

ARGH!!!! I can't get it to run in the game!  Is it because I'm just replacing the POF for the knossos as the POF for the Terran one?  Because everytime I try to use it, FRED2 craps out.   Please help!
