Just uploaded them at Hades Combine

The Athena ramins true to the Original - all the POF data and stats are the same..only glows were added and insignia is put on the rear wings.

The Mk2 (or DH or Advanced..or whatever...) Has more firepower. It has 4 gun points on the first gun bank, for a total of 6.
It has an aditional missile bank, but the capacity of the other 2 have been reduced so the total capacity is (60, 60, 100) comapred to the original Athena's (80, 80)

Sadly, due to some PCS crazyness I could only convert the full models with the PCS-factet version, so they're not as smoothy as on the screenie (this being only LO0 converted with normal PCS):



EDIT:

Download files updated!

Looks good.   

[Pnakotus]

The advanced version has more guns and almost double the secondary capacity?  Nuts.    Hope you sort out the conversion issues!

[Gregster2k]

w00t, an Erinyes in terms of disabling that even non-elite pilots of the GTVA can fly?

[leeisl]

Is it just me or does it seem that the glowpoints are missing on one side of both models ?

[TrashMan]

The last time I tested them they had all the glowpoints..

And who said everyone can fly the Mk2 version?

[leeisl]

Funny, cause when checked them again, they definately lack glowpoints on the left side viewed from the front.

It might be bacouse tehy are being obscured by hte wing..I set them prettly close to the hull so you can't see them from every imaginable angle. Rotate the ship a bit and see if htey show up...

[leeisl]

Still nothing

[Cobra]

Sweet!

[TrashMan]

I just checked - tehy work fine by me. I have no idea what could be causing this...


Hmm..which light are missing for you? The green ones? Or the red ones? Maby there's something wrong with your light image?

[ShivanSpS]

if someone whant to use this in Fs_port, remember to change the POF name to bomber01.

The red ones on the left are missing.

[Freespace Freak]

The same exact thing is happening to me.

[Janos]

Can you post comparison pics, because I have difficulties finding structural differences between classic and Mk2?

[Herra Tohtori]

These ones are not working for me... I downloaded them from here (standard Athena) and here (Mk.2), are these the correct ones? There's something weird about them.

First of all, why are the table entries in *.txt files? Shouldn't they be in *-shp.tbm files?

Anyway, the basic Athena just shows as the old model, and the new one doesn't show anything in shiplab and if I try to view the Mk2 in Tech Room, the game crashes because it can't open the model... like this.

Code: [Select]

Error: Can't open model file <>

Here's what I did with the standard HTL Athena:

-opened the RAR file

-extracted Athena.pof file to fsport\data\models\

-extracted athenashield.ani file to fsport\data\effects\

-extracted all image files to fsport\data\maps\

-extracted the text file (AthenaTBl.txt) to fsport\data\tables\

-renamed the text file AthenaTBl.txt -> Athena-shp.tbm


Same operations with the Mk2 textures, model and text file.


According to my knowledge, the ships should work when I activate fsport mod.

Am I doing something wrong or is there something wrong with those packs?

[TrashMan]

Hm.. maby I should have put the ship.tbm file, but to tell the truth I jsut glaced them over in the Wiki and completely forgot about them.

Here's the thing - the athenashield.ani goes into the hud folder and you should add it to the hud.tbl file (just copy another entry and change the name, very easy)

You add the contets of the txt files manually to your ship .tbl - just copy paste betwen some other bombers.
I suppose it should also work as a -shp.tbm file....

Why doesn' it work with the Port? Dunno...maby it' own tbl files are taking precedence... Have you tried it the ships work without hte FGSPort?

---------
As for the lights, I really have no idea what could be happening. Maby something went screwy with the uplaod to HC?

[Col. Fishguts]

Are you sure you used the standard glow images (the ones in the media_vps) and not some custom ones ?

[TrashMan]

red_glow
green_glow
blue_glow4_small
yellow_glow2_small

[Ypoknons]

It seems like you've come a long way.
