Klingon ships looking for rebuilds and textures...
« on: August 05, 2005, 09:03:12 pm »
Ok, here are 4 ships that need some work. The meshes are clean, error free but a bit heavy on the polys. If a mechanic picks them up, he may want to remove some of the paneling to reduce poly count and replace them with textures. There are 5 ships...two of them are the sep ships for the Qonos 1, the Conqueror capital ship.

At any rate, here they are. If anyone is intersted, give me a hollar in this thread. I can also provide more pics if needed.

What format are you using for the files?

I might be able to do one or two ...  ( I'm slow .. and still learing .. but willing to help)

 ;D Nice for TNG/Post-TNG Klingons.

Way out of my league to help with these.

I appreciate the offer. It would be a tough job though, so lets hold out and see if anyone else responds.

I'm glad you guys like them. They have been waiting too long for textures.

They are in Max 5.1 format

my apologies ..  I ment the textures ..  are they in bmp format.

Better yet ...  can I DL one ..  and look at the BMP files ( if they are in a standard "texture" file") I can do one ..   and see what ya think.

Ah, I see what you were asking...there are no textures on these models. They are all skinnys, meaning that all the details are modeled in. Everything, including the Klingon symbol and the word on the wing of the Brel Ma'veq. So, no textures at all.

NUTS !

I was hoping for a map I could follow.  If any one can get a map set up ..  I can re-do them and add the details  ( I think ) ..

Unfortumately I dont have max ..  which is what ya need to at least set up the basic maps to work off of.  ( If I understand it right )

Textures can be applied in lots of programs, not just Max...  even cheap ones like Milkshape or free ones like Blender, G-Max, or some older versions of TrueSpace that have been made available for free (although, having known someone who used older versions of TrueSpace, I can't say as I recommend them :D ).  Max is typically used by the SFC community because of the plugins, but it's not a requirement...

Well Raven. I can rebuild these but you wouldn't be pleased with the results as you know I recreate models for use in Armada 1/2, but if you may be supporting armada at some point then I'll gladly give them a try. Textures are another matter entirely as I'm pretty crap with creating textures (even poor ones).

I some one can generate a set of textures that can be redone with photoshop ..  I will be glad to try to put a fresh coat of paint on them.  I just dont have any 3-d programs needed to assign where the textures go.

sorry ..

IMHO ..  I like all of these ships .. we should be able put our knogins togeather and make this happen.

On a side note Major Payne, you do great work with lowering polycounts and I love what you do with the resources at hand. I'm sure that whatever you come up with would be great. I just can't get over what you did with the clone wars mod, and you did it so quickly. Just how did you combine all the textures from the x-wing alliance ships into one texture, thats genious.

Anyways back to the subject at hand. How big are the max files, or polygon wise. I'd give a try at texturing if the ships not too big. We need more smaller ships, period.

get one of them where I can read the files  (standard texture style format)  ..  and I can help retexture one of them !  Especially if it smacks of a late TNG format !

What about that Klink bash I did?  I would really love her to fly.  She's the only non-Feddish ship I've ever bashed!!!  Please don't let her collect dust in the mothball fleet.  Please???

dude the IKS Sex Machine will be included in the Invasion Mod.
I will catch you later on MSn and talk though a few things about it and how you want her armed.

Interesting, that's news to me, considereing I did the shiplists,fighterlist, model selection, and weapons retextures LOL. I have the rough draft of the bash on the puter coming from Japan(if it's the ship I'm thinking of), you'll need to get me a pic of it again and I'll work it into the MOD. I'll email ya with it's class and stats once I see it so it can be HP'ed. Otherwise just give it a standard class HP and I'll run it through ship edit. I know I don't have my MSN right now but my PM an email still work. So if there's anything else you guys want in the mod ya gotta let me know because it's almost finished  ;D
