Thanks for that info bro

Major A Payne · « **Reply #4 on:** April 10, 2005, 02:32:40 pm »

My Typhon is a very old model (perhaps some 3 1/2 years old now) so its in need of a desperate update.

battlestar001 · « **Reply #5 on:** April 10, 2005, 02:41:50 pm »

i wouldent care as long as its the 1 from ST:invasion

battlestar001 · « **Reply #11 on:** April 11, 2005, 01:06:48 pm »

how big r u going to makre the model?

Adonis · « **Reply #12 on:** April 11, 2005, 07:11:39 pm »

Tombs my man, you're a lifesaver, now to see how this schematic matches with the CGI shots, and FW, is this accurate enough?

CaptainTombs · « **Reply #13 on:** April 11, 2005, 09:12:42 pm »

its accurate as can be its from the official guys who created the typhon its concept art the colour wont match but the design specifics i would say match, i just hope they add the fighter bay/deflector at the bottom

CaptainTombs · « **Reply #14 on:** April 12, 2005, 09:29:35 am »

i dont trust those cgi shots as they are too high poly for my tastes, the schematic to me seems more closer to the game but thats just me

Major A Payne · « **Reply #15 on:** April 12, 2005, 11:27:47 am »

The CGI model was used only for the FMV footage. A much lower poly version (which was around 500 polys) was used for the ingame model. There are substantial differences but this is more down to the textures.

The ingame model is ~1000 polies, I have it togeather with the texture.

And the CGI is a good guide, I only make the sections with less polies, and don't model in each individual pannel, and there ya go, a nice ~6-7k poly model

Major A Payne · « **Reply #17 on:** April 12, 2005, 01:09:26 pm »

Hmmmm, not sure exactly Adonis, although I think I may have a lower LOD model (which I was going to use as a direct guide). As for the CGI version. It is exceptional. I just wish the original creator was still available so I could ask for it

CaptainTombs · « **Reply #18 on:** April 12, 2005, 02:54:16 pm »

same here i wouldnt mind it for rendering purposse

CaptainTombs · « **Reply #19 on:** April 12, 2005, 02:55:05 pm »

either way back to the main point of the thread does anyone have any WIP's of a new model in the works yet ?

battlestar001 · « **Reply #20 on:** April 12, 2005, 04:27:03 pm »

some one better had. I WANT THIS SHIP ASAP

CaptainTombs · « **Reply #21 on:** April 13, 2005, 09:27:01 am »

its the one ship SFC has been missing i think, but i agree with Fallen_warrior, ya cant rush excellence

battlestar001 · « **Reply #22 on:** April 13, 2005, 12:43:32 pm »

Yay im so looking forward to this ship

markyd · « **Reply #23 on:** April 13, 2005, 01:49:07 pm »

My version of this model will initally be 30k and will come with bump and specular maps to boot.... Im trying to get this as close to the CGI version as possible...

It will be worth the wait, as I like the look of what I have so far!!!

CaptainTombs · « **Reply #28 on:** April 14, 2005, 03:36:14 pm »

no offence to atheorhaven but that typhon is the most inaccurate ship ive everseen, either way cant wait to see MarkyD's

battlestar001 · « **Reply #29 on:** April 14, 2005, 03:37:50 pm »

it was a converson

CaptainTombs · « **Reply #30 on:** April 14, 2005, 06:11:52 pm »

i know the original was done by major a payne i think but still its totally in accurate, this is why this thread was made, either way, at least he tried to make one

Major A Payne · « **Reply #31 on:** April 15, 2005, 12:59:44 am »

LOL. Innaccurate?? Hmmmm, interesting you should point that out. However, its not as innaccurate as you might think. Especially considering that I didn't have access to anything other than three very poor image files when the model was originally made. Still. At least its somewhere to start.

ModelsPlease · « **Reply #32 on:** April 15, 2005, 03:49:09 am »

I like it. Besides so what if it's not 100% correct. Just think of it as a varient. Ya can NEVER have too many ships.

battlestar001 · « **Reply #33 on:** April 15, 2005, 01:16:08 pm »

sorry if i sounded mean, i did add that at least you have made one tho, even tho it is inaccurate, and with the reference you mentioned i have to agree its not a bad job

battlestar001 · « **Reply #35 on:** April 16, 2005, 02:13:25 pm »

lol, she looks rele good. Can some one make her more starbase size? like DS9 size?

CaptainTombs · « **Reply #36 on:** April 16, 2005, 07:31:03 pm »

i guess for the BC side for this model it would be cool to see a sort of deployment of the typhon

battlestar001 · « **Reply #37 on:** April 17, 2005, 06:39:09 am »

well it says the typhon is a Mobile out post. i always liked the idea the typhoon coul;d be hollow

like stabase 69

CaptainTombs · « **Reply #38 on:** April 17, 2005, 10:03:25 am »

???

either way cant wait to see an update, from what ive heard set to be a nice lookin model
