I've heard all sorts of problems about that. I would have thought something like that would be standard by now. :nervous:

I *THINK* they have a shader that does glows through opacity maps.

are you using Gbuffer geometry channels or effects IDs?  Material effects IDs should work...i cant remember.

If theres one thing they should fix in MAX for the next release its a decent glow/lens flare package because the two implementations currently in there are unpredictable and hard to use.


mmh, I use the material ID in fact. ok... i'll send myself a PM with this URL so I can find it back when I'm back on my PC friday :)
Btw, is there a way to import custom glows? ( I mean different shapes than just a plain circle )
SCREW CANON!

Yes, it's inventing a good looking one that takes time. :nod:

you know how setekh said about the stories and stuff...
id just like to know, exactly what sort of basic story line is there other than the 'ships fighting', 'ships running away' and... i can't think of any other ones. someone enlighten me.

Just look through The Array. All of it. It's pretty much all unique stuff in there. The stuff which isn't unique is pulled from the FS story arc.

Latest updates on the model.



Next up are the point defense mounts, and possibly a modification of the VLS banks near the rear.

Poly count is currently at 23,118.

By the way, at ~8x4 meters, you could practically drive a semi down one of those gun barrels. ;)  The ship has a hull length of 402 meters, with another 23 meters of antenna.

Let's see you make new textures.  I've made new textures before, but what's the point of making them when the model itself isn't finished?

Well, it just seems kinda pointless, seeing as you have the facility to texture and you're pretty good at it, but you don't have any textures to put on there.

Besides, I was joking. ;) I know all your models are WIPs... I don't think I've seen one that was absolutely finished come out of you, ever. :p
