I have a couple of utilities that I use to set the lite maps. I might be able to fix it for you, if you want me to try. I'd need the converted model and the BMPs.

Awesome!! ;D

Not sure about the light maps not showing up...only thing I can think of is to make sure the file you're opening in modviewer or ingame is the right one...I know it sounds like an obviuos thing, I've done that before, and it makes ya say WTF!?!?! ;D ::) :rofl:

I use an older version of CV, the original DX9 version, to attach the i.bmp to the model. I don't still have the original installer, nor do I know where it's still available. I could try and take it off of my HD for you, if you'd like.

After you save a model in this version of CV there are some polies that don't show up anymore. I don't know why. To correct it I run it through the M6 model editer (version 1 the version 2 messes up the smoothing on the model) and use the "compute norms" function to correct the missing polies.

It's a bit clumsy, but it works. I believe that the M6 model editer is still available. If not I can try and take it off of my HD for you as well. Let me know, bud.  8)

PS I love the model. I'm a TOS junkie.

This may or may not help.  I once downloaded a Brikiri cruiser but the textures never showed.  The BMPs were 256 color files.  I converted the files to 24-bit BMPs and the textures showed up.  Just a guess.

Ooh, now that I gotta have.  I hope you get your lightmap problem solved soon.  I've no idea how to help you, but I really want this ship.

somewhere i remember reading somewhere that for SFC the I-maps should be 8-bit .bmp's. now im not totally positive about that but it might be worth a try.

the ship looks totally sweet markyd she has a place in my ship list when she is finally released. exellent work

I tried to take CV directly off of my HD. I'm not very PC literate, unfortunately. When I sent it to someone to try it out it wouldn't work. The error he got was that it couldn't run because it didn't have, or couldn't access, the d3d.dll file. If someone who knows what they are doing wants it to make it work, let me know and I'll forward it to you.

In the meantime if you want me to see if I can get the light maps working e-mail it to me.
