I posted pictures of this



in the Celebration of FreeSpace thread, and a lot of people were wanting it, so here it is. It has two effects that need to be placed in the effects directory. All tables are .tbms, so they shouldn't mess anything up. You know where the main model and the tables go.

Have fun.

[carbine7]

hmmmm...interesting. Must investigate.

[ssmit132]

Thank you!

Now we just have to wait for the Amaterasu... No hurry, though.

[Droid803]

Woot! Very Awesomes!

[Commander Zane]

Alright!

[Goober5000]

Hmm.  Looks somewhat like the GTDn Bastion.

Incidentally, were the United Space missions ever released?

*wonders if anyone will know what I'm talking about*

[Stormkeeper]

... I don't. I didn't wait for the picture to load, I just dl'd it straight away.

[Commander Zane]

Hmm, are the glowmaps included, I don't seem to get them.

[ssmit132]

The model needs the maps changed to get the benefits of the 3.6.10 MediaVPs.

As far as I was given to understand, the mediavps is for the 'stock' ships, eg the standard GTVA horde, and doesn't apply to user-made ships.

[Commander Zane]

Technically the ships themselves are made for the MediaVPs, if it wasn't for people remodeling the ships then they would be useless.

What is that brown ship in the background near Orion? Is it released?

As far as I know it should be compatible with 3.6.10 since I used retail textures that were upgraded with the mediavps. That might be different if all the mediavp filenames have changed, which would be weird.

Hmm, are the glowmaps included, I don't seem to get them.

There are no glowmaps included in this package since all the textures are retail. The only specials are the effects. I have no idea what would prevent the glowmaps from appearing.

That's the GTBCr Tennyson. I believe it has been released and is on FreeSpaceMods.

The 3.6.10 mediavp maps, unlike the 3.6.8 zeta or retail maps, have changed names. In the beta ones, the A letters at the end are removed from the filenames. So if you want it to look good and use mediavp maps, you edit the POF, but then it won't work without using the mediavps.

Or you can just extract the maps and rename them.

And btw, this ship looks great, so I'm gonna use it in my SOC mod.

Too much work for me, no thanks.
I don't even know how to do either one anyway.

[esarai]

I'll post an updated version.  I just realized I forgot to give it dock points... EEK!

[ShadowGorrath]

Add glow points as well

That's why there was a discussion about using retail maps in this thread; It sort of wrecks compatibility if you use the maps in 3.6.10, unless your mod needs 3.6.10 to run. I suppose you could release the mod with the models using pure (I.E. with the A letters) retail maps, and have a separate VP with a set of models using 3.6.10 maps, though. (esarai, this is not necessarily for you, just general information )

[Droid803]

I inquired about it once (here) but I never got an answer.
Separating everything just makes running the mod that much more difficult than it already is. Look at FSportMVPs + STR...you need like...five -mod calls, in the right order, or it essentially breaks.

I spent a little bit of time and re-textured this using tiles I improved and have been using for al my major ships.



All textures have been replaced and that's my re-textured Whitehall installation called the GTI Zavaro in the backgroud which is the headquarters of the 21st Battle Group.  Notice the lighted runway
