New Mirak Fleet WIP and texture HELP Request
« on: November 05, 2003, 10:20:26 pm »
I was aboout to ask Kreeargh to consider doing a HIGH POLY version of the Mirak CA as seen in the SFC: EAW box Cover/Intro movie when he presented me with these Mirak designs:



Here is Kreeargh's new Mirak FF. It is textured using the STOCK ZFT textures. I like it and would like to put this in the GAW mod with its sister ships.



Here are some pics of other WIP Mirak ships. Anybody with the right tools care to texture these for Kreeargh to get them out the door?

Not of any help, but those are some nice models there... always liked the Mirak and Lyran, even though I rarely play them...


if no one responds with help, just repost this in a week or so... I'd like to see this happen too; sorry I can't help.

These are very, very nice. We should totally use these for the GaW mod. I could try to help texture them. The only thing is, I don't think we should have multiple people texture them all, because they would all turn out different. If you guys agree, I could try to work it in with my current projects, but they probably coun't be done quickly... Anyway just a thought.

I don't know that I'd be the best choice. Certainly I know TMP Fed stuff, but I've never done even a Klingon or Romulan.......much less a whole fleet of Mirak models!
I don't even have max 4 re-installed yet. Sorta just now getting back into it.

Still.........it is an intriguing idea.

Hypothetically speaking........I'd need reference materials and a crash course on the Mirak to get a feel for them. All I know is that the bastards shoot a bunch of bloody missiles. lol
I don't have that pic on the front of the SFC II: EAW box anymore. Threw the box away I guess.

As the new Mirak RM for SFC2.net I wanna thank any of you guys who come up with new mirak models/textures.

With all the Fed/Rom?Klingon stuff out there it is really nice when the Mirak get thrown a bone or two.  Additionally I have set up a thread on our SFC2.net forums for links to Mirak models, if any of you has some you would like to share with us please send me a PM and let me know.

Again thank you all.

Probably the best reference you could have is the actual in-game models of the Mirak from SFC2. Do something similar to that, just with higher resolution and better detail. If you're interested, but but you don't think you can actually do the whole thing, we could work together on them.

Actually, I've done just that.

I read all the Mirak info on the archived SFC II EAW site and started picking apart the stock Taldren Mirak textures. I've made a basic hull metal texture, but I can't do much more without meshes to check out in detail.

I guess I should probably get a copy of those meshes, huh?

Yeah cool man! I can't wait to see your take on these!

It's always good to bring new alien modelers and texturers into the fold.

Gosh this would be good. I'm short about four Kzinti hulls compatable with Taldrens textures to really make their fleet work. I've been holding out for a some well done versions of their CVL, HDW, LTT and small freighter. Make any one of these and someone will be my hero.

Try the D2 fourm post there that you need info on the mirak (based on the kzin from TAS)
I know steel claw has got lots of info on them plus a font for them too

Ok, I recieved 6 max files. Can't say much else yet because I haven't re-installed max 4 yet.
That's next on my list.

Thanks for the heads up on the Mirak thread. I'll be relying on you Mirak experts out there to help me get the feel of these ships right.

I echo Chuut's sentiments here.  A nice set of TMP Mirak models has been sorely lacking for quite some time.  I'm excited by the prospect of seeing this drought come to an end on a comprehensive basis...
