Edit to make this post at all relevant in this thread: I imagine if you used animated glows combined with that sort of effect you could get some awesome results.

That would be amazing.

I am still working on this just not as much as I would like due to real life and being over come with the urge to start another model. Will post about that one momentarily. Quick question when I map the depressed areas, like the red glowing panels along the hull do I include the sides as well since they will most likely be a different texture or do I Map them with the rest of hull. Also is there a way to remove a section once it has been unwrapped if I decide to do a part differently?

Yes, but once you start texturing it becomes harder.

D-d-d-duuuude! Great! You're doing very well, I approve

Amazing looking. We need to update more Shivan craft.

I just realized that I accidentally deleted the blender model I was unwrapping. Now I have to reconvert the model from sketch-up and start the whole process over again.

If you haven't overwritten the original file (yet) . You can try some of these file-recovery apps like "PC Inspector File Recovery" (saved my behind a few times).

Also check for a .blend1 file that will be the previous save you made.

Or you could get Recuva for free. Google it.

Sadly the blender file I deleted was on a flash drive so it won't be recoverable. I work on various PCs through out the day so I take everything I need with me on a 8GB flash drive just in case I get bored. I just got careless while cleaning up my main file on the drive. I usually place WIP models in their own folders so this sort of thing doesn't happen but forgot to do it this one time. I still have the model from when I was working on it in sketch-up so all I lost was the little progress I've made unwrapping the thing.

That recovery program can also recover deleted files on flash drives assuming it is in good condition when you restore it. You don't have your own computer?

There are also freeware programs that are probably able to do the same, like Disk digger http://dmitrybrant.com/diskdigger.

Just don't write or modify any files on the flash drive yet, cause you might accidentally overwrite the deleted file.
Hopefully, your flash drive does not use some sort of data compression or encryption, otherwise ,that file is probably gone for good.

Dude, freeware is not more likely to be malware if you have an ounce of common sense, ever heard of RealPlayer?

Recuva would be a good bet.

Coincidentally, RealPlayer fits many definitions of "malware."

Now back on-topic before someone who actually has mod powers in here comes in and beats you.

[CaptJosh]

Malware? Nah. It's just a piece of **** is all.
