I was doing some digging (don't know how I missed it in the first place, but nevermind) and ran across this model.



and a thread to go with it:HLP Thread "For Sale"  My question: has anyone completed this model?  (Turrets and LODs?)  If not, I may be able to glue up a beta version pretty quickly.  Would anyone be interested?

[Silver_Scythe]

I want it already.

I think LtNarol was playing with it. Ask him.

That's what I thought, but he can't turret (or at least not well).  I think the pic above was of LtNarol's version.

Anyway, I finished turreting it and all; here is a pic (I am looking into actual FTP space sometime next week, so bear with me).  I made it a battleship, destroyer size or larger, but with no hangers.  A main fleet weapon, if you will.  It has 12 main cannons, 7 large (long range/heavy) flak guns, six turreted missile launchers, and 14 small turrets (AAAf or turret laser; I haven't decided).  The model is converted, but not tested.

Correctico! we need a turreter and if you read the last few posts, we were getting kinda desperate.  If you can turret the blasted thing, i can do a bit of touch-up painting on the turrets and then convert it and the model will be ready for release.

[Silver_Scythe]

Please tell me where I can pick that model up!'

[StratComm]

I'll release it when I finish the paths.

Arrgh! Why can't people show off their models on BLACK backgrounds.

[experiencedn00b]

how exactly DO you turret?  and add the thruster effects?

Because white makes a smaller filesize.

Turreting requires Truespace 2 or later and the Freespace 2 Ship Creation Guide (Search google for it, I can't ever remember where it is) to explain the heirarchy.  For thruster effects, you simply specify a thruster coordinate and vector in a pof editor, like the pof constructor suite.  You will find FRED2 and waypoints very helpful for that.

It looks awesome.  But it really, really should have a hangar.

1) looks nice
2) maybe i can turret it, but... LtNarol wont allow me...

[Sesquipedalian]

Okay, that's good.    
I was a little worried when I read:

well, StratComm was turreting it but didnt realize the thing had a hangar, its that yellow thingy.  Thanks StratComm

[StratComm]

That model is public anyway, so you can download it yourself.  If you want my version, it will be up in a few days, if I can get some web hosting.  And it does have hangers.

Can someone PLZ make me a huge version of the Raynor for my mission mybe campaign? (BIGGER then the Colossus, something that could match a Sathanas, thinkin lots o beams [BFgreens & Terslashes]  and big as a Sathanas )
