you realy realy need to use the fewest textures posable, even if they are very large textures

it realy is rediculusly easy to do

I would round off the cockpit a little. While the original did have that boxy front, a small amount of smoothing of the side edges of the cockpit glass/support part would make it look a little better.

diferent not: I'd reces the mechanical bits a little, small edges like that make things look a lot more detailed

I'd be willing to do one or two models to show you what I mean, but it's not my mod.

impossible due to extendide use of tilling maps on cap ships. This can be done for a lot of fighters, but nor for cap ships. At least not for large ones.

Well you still have to use some tiling on capital ships for sure.  Not going to get away with that...Bobboau still does it :)

Its just that HT&L has more trouble with tons of textures than tons of polys.  Or so I'm told.  So it means that if you have a pile of fighters with multiple textures each then you get slow downs...Venom's GTF Banshee is a prime example.

IIRC there are capships that have non-tileing textures, lost of them.
though I could be wrong
/*looks to see if he can find that one capship I got from you guys for shield testing*/
