I still need to neuter some of the turrets yet 

but glow/shine is now there, makes things look better

[Colonol Dekker]

The bussard intakes look great as always..............

[Scooby_Doo]

I just wish there was an easier, more accurate way to do the intakes. Right now I'm using several omni lights, does anyone know of a way to have a surface give off light?

[Colonol Dekker]

Glow mapping isnt implemented yet?

[Scooby_Doo]

Glow maps are baked. Its just setting them up is a pain.  The top intakes uses 9 omni light just for itself.

[Scooby_Doo]

You know I think there is something more serious going on here....
I cut the turrets down to 33 (including turret-destroyed)

Now this is what I'm getting:
turret01
turret02
turret03
turret04
detail-1c
turret04-arm
....
turret31-arm

My first thoughts where that they weren't attached in order, so I detached the detail levels and then reattached them. Still nothing.

[Scooby_Doo]

Looks like I still need to delete turrets.  I think I'll just replace the top/bottom lasers with this fake one:

It won't move, however it's preconfigured whenever side turrets ever come around *hint hint* 

[Scooby_Doo]

She works! Turrets are working now 

Put her and an Orion in a firefight, Orion managed to bring her down to about 50% before the orion blew.  (both have same hp) I wish you could tell cap ships to disarm another ship, the poor orion wouldn't have stood any chance with all the AAA coming at it. It was kinda funny watching the orion occasional throw a green blob at the essex while the essex was throwing a buttload of laser/tachyon fire at it 
The GTVA could have used her during the war, shivan fighters wouldn't have stood a chance

Yowsa ! 

Tis' gorgeous, *looks for link expectantly*

Congrats on Scooby SHip #497

[Cobra]

*whines* I want it so badly right now.

[Scooby_Doo]

Ok I'm having another slight problem (also occured with the hunter, maybe even the Formidable).

I have 6 engine subsystems.

Code: [Select]

$Subsystem: fighterbay01, 35, 0.0
$Subsystem: fighterbay02, 35, 0.0
$Subsystem: bridge, 35, 0.0
$Subsystem: engine01, 35, 0.0
$Subsystem: engine02, 35, 0.0
$Subsystem: engine03, 35, 0.0
$Subsystem: engine04, 35, 0.0
$Subsystem: engine05, 35, 0.0
$Subsystem: engine06, 35, 0.0

They appear as subsystems in the game

and in the pof under special:
Name: $engine01  (2,3,4.....)
Proeprties: $special=subsystem
radius 30

and the pof engines:
6 seperate thrusters each with 1 glowpoint
$engine_subsystem=$engine01  and size 20, normal (0,0,-1)

but the engine glows don't appear.  What am I doing wrong?

[Scooby_Doo]

Ok just to make sure that it was this model that was having problems with the engines, I put all my capships along with the orion in a nice row.  The game ran rather slow... 11fps (not bad considiring how many polys was going on). But the engine glow is missing on all my ships plus the orion.  Looks like I messed up a table somewheres.
