I've been working on it a bit more, found a few pics on the web from the tv show. Here's a size comparison between the Command Carrier and the Colossus. Do you think the size is right? the model isnt finished yet and i need to find out how to model turrets etc. So if you want to lend a hand say so.

(square root of pi) * 1000

exactly that many polys... no more, no less... no rounding!

:rolleyes:
maximum per submodel: about 820. maximum per pof: about 5000 I think ( all subobjects put together ).
also your models uses intersecting meshes, and FS2 won't like that, thel result will be ugly graphical bugs.

Plus you'l prob. need to triangulate it.  And it looks like you'll have problems from intersecting faces.

okay, here's what i think you meant. in TS2 it reads as 2708 faces. That leaves quite a few for turrets and the like. Does anyone know a good tutorial about how to make turrets in TS2?

Umm...thats exactly 1000 polys way too much.

Babylon 5...the single largest and most detailed model in the history of FreeSpace 2 (and with a working engine version) is going to be about 3000 and we're REALLY concerned about that.  We're trying to do some sort of super LOD stuff (and do more than 4 levels of detail).

Way too many polys methinks.

You don't count triangulated.
It's a fact.  Stupid people have stupid children.  If you are stupid, don't have sex.  If you insist on having sex.  Have sex with animals.  If you have sex with an animal.  Make sure the animal is smarter than you are.  Just encase of some biological fluke you and the animal have offspring, they won't be as stupid as you are.   One more thing.  Don't assume the animal is protected.  If the animal has a condom, or if female some interuterian device, insist they wear it.  Help stop this mindless mindlessness.  Keep your stupidty to yourself.  This message was brought to you by the Committee of Concerned Citizens that are Smarter than You are.
