It's human to err. Trust me, I have done my share. 

P.S. I just renamed the POF file to match the one I have in the ships tbl once I copied the pof file into the model folder.

Hi guys, any updates on the Ezechiel.pof? Just asking fellas, no hurry here.

Jade, no offfense, but why not start a ship from scratch? I'm sure you would learn more by going through all the processes from 3dmeshing part to uv mapping to teh final steps of model porting?

There's nothing wrong with taking on established stuff for revamps though.



Incidentally I saw you pick on the Banshee earlier...

Give me Banshee Love!!! ALDO!!!

For the same reason I haven't taken up coding. Jadehawk is very, very good at what he does, and the more of it he does do, so much the better.

[Getter Robo G]

Very true, it was just a friendly suggestion.

Thanks for the complements fellas Texturing I find rewarding and relaxing compared to my day time job!

I DO have plans to do some 3D modeling. I have in the past, but it was very elementary stuff and never completed anything. Right now, I'm busy doing texturing for Teeth of the Tiger (see new update in this forum) and I do hope to complete the Ezechiel project someday soon. I'm well aware the fellas who stepped up to fix the modeling are quite busy and I'm sure they will be done when they get the time too. So guys, no hurry if your reading this!

I do have some ideas for a Terran Fighter or two and also a Battlecruiser and a Battlecarrier as well. Yes I know there are some Carriers out there, but my idea is quite different and I do not know if it can be pulled off. Mine requires a FULL length fighter bay on each side of the ship somewhat like you see on the Battlestar Galatica. This fighter bay will have launch tubes and a recovery area.

It would be nice if we could have a launch sequence with a MaG rail launch system in the game for the Fighters and also a recovery sequence where you approach the landing area pretty much like you do today, just when you get over the runway, your grabbed by a MaG lift system that captures you using a tractor beam and bring you to a halt. Then moves you to an assigned parking spot.

What about the open bay areas to space? Simple, a shield system keeps the atmosphere and pressure inside while letting solid objects through. I'm sure plenty have thought of this before, but I wish we could code this into the game.
 


I would not mind texturing the Banshee, but as I you know from the beginning of this thread, others say it nearly impossible due to how difficult it is to UV map it? I do not know anything about what is exactly wrong as I'm not into that stuff yet. If a good clean UV map cam be made with no problems with it, I just may give it a try.

Hahahaa! you guys crack me up!

Here is something I also do. It's a profile I did totally from scratch. I have several of these I completed and sometimes they can take a month to do. The original size of this particular example is 5050X2280, 145 layers and 65.3mb on my hard drive. Loading and saving can be...well quite an adventure sometimes!

This is low resolution example and here it is:



Here is what you cannot see that I have done such as adding all the rivets, fasteners, etc.

HAWT DAMN!

[Jadehawk]

HAWT DAMN!

I say exactly the same thing when I see a beautiful Redhead walking by. 

[Titan]

ddly enough, a hawt redhead is my best friend.... and it's a she

[Jadehawk]

I like females too! Straight guy here...just HAD to say that for clarification! 

[Jadehawk]

Bump

[Titan]

bump for...?

[pecenipicek]

nothing from me unfortunately -.- dont have the time do my stuff anymore...

[Titan]

Shut up mr. red-text man.

MAYJA

Can you reupload the teal SOC skin? I can't find it.

[Jadehawk]

The only skin I released was the White with Teal strips. If your talking about the all Teal one, then yeah I could release that too. Come to think of it, I could release all the different schemes in one zip.

I'll see about this Saturday as I'm busy for the rest of the day.

Stay tuned.

[Titan]

ok. Can't wait to play with this.

[Jadehawk]

OK file is uploaded th Freespacemods. So go knock yourselves out

[Titan]

Sweet, thanks.
