IIRC asteroids have some sort of "never collide with other 'roids" tag, but since that happens so rarely, you hardly ever notice it. But a large asteroid that's considered part of the field might make it quite noticable.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences.

Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

then place the large one as a ship, give it some more hitpoints and destroyable subsystems with their own debris too. that way you can shoot bits off from it, and it won't become a big cloud of gravel when it get's hit with a small laser.

Hmm... Perhaps making Sandwich's 'roids massive, yet rare(one or two in viewable area) would be in order? This way, it wouldn't kill the framerate, too much... and if someone could figure out how to turn off the blasted "asteroids cannot hit each other" thing... yum.

Sandwich-I like your 'roids but I don't have .MAX or 3DEX, or a clue how to UVmap. :nervous:

Any chance you could convert them to .cob, or POF? :)

Not really, but that's why I put them up for download. Anyone can have a go at them. :)

Take the asteroid in LOD0 and use it for an animation.

Let it rotate around itself and save it in seperate images.

And we have a ... super new debris ani.

Which was one of the ugliest parts of Freespace.

Currently it's a boring single-axis rotation. If someone wants any better, they can download the Asteroid Factory file and do it themselves! :p

In the /effects folder.

But you only need 1 file of them.
