then make me a high res tex for the helmet pls.....

Post the map you're using now?

[Mars]

And you're doing a damn good job.

Don't let people get you down you're doing better than I ever could anyway.

[IceyJones]

hi firecrack....

its the big mediaVP texture for the terran cockpit. there is a small side view of the helmet.....thats the texture i use, as it is the only helmet texture we have.... 

but the action is coming closer....test render of one shot of the warp-in scene, showing the arrival of the taranis...

[ShadowGorrath]

The red planet looks a bit deformed... Everything else looks very good 

[IceyJones]

thats because of the wide angle camera (25 mm)

[Col. Fishguts]

Very cool

Maybe loosen up the Valk formations a bit ? It's not a parade after all, give them a little vertical variation.

[IceyJones]

you´re right...jesus....my pc is rendering 20 hours for this scene already....food for the trashcan.....

hmm....10 seconds ready rendered. i think i leave the formations. the ships are so fast because the cam position is directly at the worm hole, that all ships and especially the small valks are way to fast to see anything

[SF-Junky]

Nice work so far. But I still have to complain about that Fenris. It turns around too fast imo (and it still flys to close to the sentries ). I also wonder why those guns are that far away from the station - looks as if it was 10 clicks or so. Isn't that a bit... useless? 

But really an eye-candy so far. Lookin' forward to it.

One suggeston...why don't you use starfield.pof-like background with only a few nebulae? The result would be equally interesting. Some of the backgrounds seem a bit exaggerated and alter emotions.

The current starfield and background is better than the skybox and I like the feel of it how it is now.

[IceyJones]

well....err  ...... i just try to match this:

because of that i dont use a skybox nebula.....

and junky....the centries are not useless, as they guard the jump-node.....every ship must pass them..... you will see....
and the centries are "only" 5 clicks from the station.....hey....need some space for the 2 big caps, each over 2 km long

Fellas, you don't *need* to give suggestions with practically every post about practically every WIP.
Going back and forth making tons of little changes is really quite frustrating and slows the whole process down.

I like it.
It's a pity we don't have a HTL Cain or Arcadia () yet seeing as they're kinda the stars of this show, but oh well - still looks great and you've done a great job of upping the perceived detail on them.

[colecampbell666]

I've already said, Inferno has an HTL Cain/Lilith model. As for the Arcadia, if you want it, get to work! (it was you making the Arcadia, wasn't it?)

It's not really HTL, the only changes are to the three forward arms.

You were the one doing the HTL Arcadia, weren't you.  Did that ever get past the docking area?

[Vasudan Admiral]

Yeah but not a whole lot further - certainly not enough to be useful in this cutscene. It'll be done eventually though.

He's going off of the command ANI, which has a very harsh red tint.

Amen.

But it's not like your suggestions matter, noone's listening so post away. 

Personally I agree that the formations are way too tight, you never see them that way in canon. But it looks beautiful and dramatic either way. 

[terran_emperor]

Looking sweeter by the second.

Will a demo-vid be done soon?

[IceyJones]

no.....for a "demo"-vid you need raw-stuff from every scene....so a teaser makes no sence as then i can make the final movie directly....
