Topic: Captain KoraH's SFC3 Romulan "Goshawk" Retextured... HELP please

[Klingon Fanatic]

OK, when I find models I like that I want to retexture I try to do so. This is Captain KoraH's Neutral Zone Romulan Goshawk...

This would be awesome to play in SFC3/OP and in keeping with my UNIFORMITY of textures for my Romulan fleet. Using Thulls, Atrahasis' and some STOCK Romulan textures I came up with this:

She needs ADDITIONAL lighting which is something I can not do. Especially where the plasma tubes and ship windows are...

Is there anybody left who can add additional lighting to this ship's *.MOD file? I think Atheorhaven is MAXED out w/ projects. Then of course I still need to get Captain KoraH's permission to release this once she's lit up more.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Qapla!

Having looked at the Goshawk model (that you were good enough to send me) there isn't a part of the ship that doesn't have a corresponding illumination map. The windows should be easy but the torp tubes are illumninated at an odd angle. Perhaps because of wrapping? But you should be able to illumniate the windows without much trouble. Perhaps temporarily rename the main texture as the i texture and black out what you don't want. A little cut and save of the desired part and copy to the original i map should do it. Thoughts?  Anything I can do apart from the tubes?

Not Maxed out, more rebuilding after we put in the larger HD and also putting in too many hours at work... that's what's been keeping me offline.

But if all the I-maps are with the ship ready to be included, it'll literally take me roughly 20 minutes max to add in.  And tomorrow I have a bit of time off, so maybe PM me a link and I can test out and make sure that I have Max reinstalled properly with all the plugins I had in there back in there at the same time.

Thanks Atheorhaven, I sent you a copy for your perusal.

BTW: Any chance you can have a look at Atrahasis' Regula One station model? It was made for SFC1 but is really solid and just needs lighting. Moonraker's version has a mesh problem (my copy anyway) that gives the Regula One station 'disappearing sections' if you look at it too far away in game.

Tus has lit this puppy! Thank you Tus!

Now perhaps, either Atheorhaven or Rogue can tweak the textures a bit more... there are a few anomalies on the upper left part of the wing and the right bottom of the neck I can't seem to fix...

UPDATE:

I have e-mailed Captain KoraH and he has granted release permission.

I will make it available as soon as somebody other than me can fix the texture issues I mentioned above and get them to me.

I just wish ganymed would get the rest of the series of thu11s rommies done. Some of the variants are nice but none match each other.
