Topic: Nightsoft models for SFC... (Read 7365 times)

Raven Night · « **on:** December 29, 2004, 05:50:25 pm »

Here are two of them, the Pdan and Pkor. I dont have screen shots of them in game, so I will post the shots from BC.....I will be posting the DVoridex shortly, and I have some Max5 models that could use conversion to SFC if anyone is interested. Might as well get these out there.

I have someone in mind for the max ports, he did a good job with them last time so soon as he gets on msn..

Raven Night · « **Reply #2 on:** December 29, 2004, 06:18:28 pm »

Excellent. I have the Dvoridex posted as well, I had an SFC version. I also loaded your site with more models for conversion to BC, in case you were not aware. Thanks.

Age · « **Reply #3 on:** December 29, 2004, 06:20:28 pm »

It is nice to see some new models coming from Nightsoft Raven .They look good any new Federation and Klingon ones?

Raven Night · « **Reply #4 on:** December 29, 2004, 06:22:46 pm »

Those are in the works, we have concepts completed, but no meshes as of late. Trying to finish up the Romulans first, then we will jump on the Klingons. Feds should be next in line.

What happened to posting pics or files? Is that gone?

J. Carney · « **Reply #5 on:** December 29, 2004, 06:24:32 pm »

I like the fact that people are doing more things than just Feds and Klings now. These are great Roms, and they follow the design progression well.

How many more are you guys planning?

Age · « **Reply #6 on:** December 29, 2004, 06:24:54 pm »

I don't believe so.

Raven Night · « **Reply #7 on:** December 29, 2004, 06:29:09 pm »

Well, there are 6 waiting in the wings for the Roms that are finished meshes, and two for the Remans. 3 have been converted to BC already, and these three for SFC. So a total of 8 Roms and 2 Remans.

There are two more Roms on the slate, as well as three more Remans, a slew of Klingons and Feds, and a group of Cardassians. Smaller groups are the Orions, Breen, Ferengi, Vulcans, Dominion, Borg, Tholian, Gorn and Bajoran. Most are only in the concept stage.

Wow nice models - whos the modeler, you RN?

Raven Night · « **Reply #10 on:** December 29, 2004, 08:32:43 pm »

No, I designed them of course, but LC Amaral is the mesh mechanic. He did a fantastic job, wouldn't you say?

Kaenyne · « **Reply #11 on:** December 29, 2004, 08:55:09 pm »

Awesome stuff! Been WAITING for these beautiful birds! Alas, I've tried to download them, but they keep cutting out early and saying the file is corrupted. Is it just me?

pepperman · « **Reply #12 on:** December 29, 2004, 09:00:04 pm »

No, it is not just you. Something is amiss with these downloads.

Kaenyne · « **Reply #13 on:** December 29, 2004, 09:06:31 pm »

Must be Nightsoft then. Well, look on the bright side, they are ready! Just a matter of fixing the downloads.

Raven Night · « **Reply #14 on:** December 29, 2004, 09:56:56 pm »

Can you describe the problem exactly, including your connection speed? The download seems to work fine for me.....

Raven Night · « **Reply #15 on:** December 29, 2004, 10:09:11 pm »

Sorry, I cant edit my prior post, so I have to add another. I am willing to find somewhere else to host the files if it is a problem, or perhaps I can upload them here. I'm not sure if this forum allows that. At any rate, let me know if you are having a problem downloading the files.

Kaenyne · « **Reply #16 on:** December 29, 2004, 11:00:22 pm »

Sure thing Raven Night:

I have a 56k connection. On all three downloads, what happens is sometime during the download, it just quits. I then have a partial file and it says its invalid or corrupted.

Yes I believe that I would say that about the modeling as well as the design. Same goes for the other models at your site. You should make the pictures of the models at your site bigger IMO.

Raven Night · « **Reply #18 on:** December 30, 2004, 12:13:57 am »

Thanks. Did you have a problem downloading the files Stupp? Also, if anyone can grab these files and host them for slow connections, it would be appreciated.

Lord Schtupp · « **Reply #19 on:** December 30, 2004, 12:33:21 am »

No, I didnt try dLing but I guess if your having bandwidth problems I guess you shouldnt make the pictures bigger after all lol

Raven Night · « **Reply #20 on:** December 30, 2004, 01:09:08 am »

What I need to know is if anyone has had success downloading the files. If not, I will figure out another solution.

Starforce2 · « **Reply #21 on:** December 30, 2004, 01:48:45 am »

I will try downloading them later but your site is slowed to a crawl. Pictures can easily be put in galleries I know a free host for that.

I'd suggest SFC3 files but I gave them a pack for LordSchtuup's connies that give all different regs and it's been sitting in their ftp since nov4. Doubt they will ever bother to post it, and mackies ftp is full, and nightsoft far far too slow for 48 meg files...

Raven Night · « **Reply #22 on:** December 30, 2004, 02:10:41 am »

Ok, great, let me know if you have problems.............btw, I sent you an email about NanoFX 2.0. The Nightsoft EULA was mission. Mike told me.

Ill try to find somewhere else to drop it if I have to. I dont know why the speed is so slow tonight, could be the quality of the phone lines here. I had to relocate the server to a friends house I am currently staying in. It has become our temp HQ.

Starforce2 · « **Reply #23 on:** December 30, 2004, 02:19:31 am »

yea you guys gotta start sending me an email each time you purchase a mod. Likely it was not owned by nightssoft at the time of posted and I never knew you guys formall purchased it.

Lord Schtupp · « **Reply #24 on:** December 30, 2004, 03:05:10 am »

The Furious is one of the best Fed designs I have ever seen - I really like that model, its coolness is off the meter

stewiedude · « **Reply #25 on:** December 30, 2004, 10:18:32 am »

Sapharite · « **Reply #26 on:** December 30, 2004, 12:36:36 pm »

Hey Raven much thanks for that

I would like to ask you how was your recovery from the misterious illness. I hope it is fine and I wish you a Happy New Year with more luck, smile, and colours in your life...

I wish you all what you've been dreaming about

GotAFarmYet? · « **Reply #27 on:** December 30, 2004, 12:38:30 pm »

Raven I downloaded all three yesterday with out a problem. I use a Cable modem from Adelfia out here in California.

I will also add last night about Half the sites I normally go to were down or really slow, so it might be a problem with the net in general.

Sapharite · « **Reply #28 on:** December 30, 2004, 01:59:44 pm »

Raven this is important. Somebody had forgoten to illuminate Pdan class Romulan Scout. I have done it. I've also corrected illumination maps (I know I had done it without premission

) If you want them I'll send you corrected models.

BTW The Pdan and Pkor are downloading fine. The third ship's .zip file is damages. Please check it also.

Please feel free to contact me via PM if you want those corrected Pdan and Pkor

Dawntreader · « **Reply #29 on:** December 30, 2004, 02:42:28 pm »

Nightsoft just went down.

Try Battleclinic. I know that the owner of that site is always wanting new models uploaded.

Raven Night · « **Reply #30 on:** December 30, 2004, 02:48:46 pm »

Well, I just rebooted the server. It should be back up in a few minutes.

Yes, I would like the corrected files, or if someone could host them I can refer them to that hosting.

Once the files are positively working, I will post them in the thread at the top of the page. Right now they are beta, so I expect thier may be problems with them.

Sapharite · « **Reply #31 on:** December 30, 2004, 02:57:57 pm »

I'll rehardpoint them for SFC2/OP as well

I will not do SFC3 versions because I do not have SFC3 Modelling Tools right now as well as SFC3 installed on my PC

I can send them to you vis e-mail till 12 hours (for me it'll be the morning)...

Raven Night · « **Reply #32 on:** December 30, 2004, 06:32:55 pm »

Excellent.........Im glad to hear it. Though the downloads are higher for SFC3 models, I like to make it a habit of back converting files all the way back to SFC1 if possible. That is, after all, where we got our start.

And again, Im sorry that the forum was down a little longer than expected. We had to do some work on it, but it is back up now.

actualy all ravens models are released lit. They don't need lightmaps.

Raven Night · « **Reply #34 on:** December 30, 2004, 07:07:10 pm »

The file seems to check out fine here, did someone else have this third file error?

Raven Night · « **Reply #35 on:** December 30, 2004, 08:28:12 pm »

K, Starforce is in charge of our conversions cross game, so he is the man with the plan.

Starforce2 · « **Reply #36 on:** December 30, 2004, 08:41:38 pm »

Pveer in progress..heh

anwyays, raven, did youi delete the "light" in max before you converted, if so it explains why the model is so dark. I found they are a bit easier to see ingame if you have that light in, they show up as nice and green. so you may want to reconvert it with the light back in, unless it already was...

Kaenyne · « **Reply #37 on:** December 30, 2004, 08:53:32 pm »

Okay, it must be me then. Pkor and Pdan I have successfully d/ld. However, Dvoridex just isn't happening. It still just cuts out early. Is there any way someone could send a copy my way? I realize my Yahoo account will require the whole file to be broken down most likely but if someone could do that I would greatly appreciate it. Many thanks!

If I remember you had been ill recently. Hope you are feeling better. Enjoy your new year and here's to your health.

with msn messenger ofcourse...

also raven, wtf are the torpedo tubes on the pveer? I see 4 foreward ports I assume are 4x pulse cannon. 2x rear (aft torpedo for sure probablyy) anyways...

Kaenyne · « **Reply #42 on:** December 30, 2004, 09:45:13 pm »

Sent an email your way, Starforce...

Raven Night · « **Reply #43 on:** December 30, 2004, 09:52:53 pm »

There are no forward torpedoes. Only the rear launcher....instead the nose has 4 heavy disruptor cannon. The torp launcher is for defense.

BTW Fallen Warrior I've alredy did that. Pdan and Pkor have been illuminated and they all have been hardpointed for SFC2. I'm just waiting for Raven's e-mail to send them

Raven Night · « **Reply #51 on:** December 31, 2004, 05:33:19 am »

Ok, for the size, between the Pkor and Pdan. As to the email to send the files, probably be better if you can put them up somewhere for me to grab....they might get bounced by my mail.

Starforce2 · « **Reply #52 on:** December 31, 2004, 05:41:24 am »

I can provide an ftp password (not publicly, over PM) where I can get the files to raven. All you need is an ftp client. Anyone needing to send something to raaven should pm me.

Sapharite · « **Reply #53 on:** December 31, 2004, 08:12:44 am »

You really need to learn how to convert your own ships properly. Your Pveer is about 1/3 the size of the Pdan.
http://gallery82737.fotopic.net/c390466.html

U can see a pic of it parked on a pdan. Additionaly, note the difference in the light absorbsion of the hulls, there's an easy way to keep that from happening too....
