aw, come on, i was just kidding.
To consider the Earth as the only populated world in infinite space is as absurd as to assert that in an entire field of millet, only one grain will grow. - Metrodorus of Chios
I wept. Mysterious forces beyond my ken had reached into my beautiful mission and energized its pilots with inhuman bomb-firing abilities. I could only imagine the GTVA warriors giving a mighty KIAAIIIIIII shout as they worked their triggers, their biceps bulging with sinew after years of Ivan Drago-esque steroid therapy and weight training. - General Battuta

Well, just so you know, I did try to send them out tonight, but for some bizzare reason, I can't access my hotmail account:doh::hopping:

But I have gained extra requests:p

Guess you'll all have to wait a while longer...

Actually, you'd have to replace the turrets on the mesh manually, and then recompile the pof file.  There's already an Orion with better looking turrets on it, done by Raptor. But you'll have to search for it. :)

models give me a freakin headache. I only like making(not editing) them in blender. anything else in truespace, gmax, etc and i'm ready to punch a hole through my moniter and chuck the whole thing out the window.

That's cos you need practice at it until it becomes easier :D

Although TS will always remain a hellish experience.....

Yeah, but everyone starts out like that; the more you model, the better you get, and the better you get the more ideas you have.

Very true. I started off as a horrid modeler... now I can make decent vessels. Some day I'll make good vessels, then I'll be making great vessels. :)

It alse helps if you have the right tools. For example, Truespace is nice for conversions and all, but it's interface... well, to quote Shadowwolf "is like a monkey screwing a football". It's counterintuitive.

If you want, try to get a copy of 3dmax 4.2 or higher, and try out the tutorials that come with it for modelling a low poly space ship. They are really helpful. :)

I mostly model in Blender, than I stick it in TS to add more parts and stuff. I have a few Idea's, but mostly I'm just working on that Hi-Poly Moloch. I still can't think of what a good Shivan turret would look like.:blah:

It's quite easy to transition (box)  modelling techniques from Blender-Max, BTW.

Max does seam to be better then Ts, but I just have TS 3.2 so I don't know how it compares. Just finally downloaded Max the other day. Now, if I can learn the views, I'll be in good shape.
