'Kay, it's done...

Starforce, do you have a list of credts for this ship that I can put into the ship's archive before I upload it?

I don't want to be putting in "Modeller: unknown", "Textures:unknown/atheorhaven", etc...

Thanks cpthooker for letting us do this over here.  Had it's tricky parts to do, but not too much different than one of Mackie's meshes coming over from Lightwave.  :D

SFC will also give the benefit of giving the ship colored illumination maps, which you could then b&w if you'd like to reconvert over to BC.

The TGA files work in BC, but not in SFC.  They had to be converted over to BMP files, and from there, illumination textures needed to be created.  Bit of work, but wasn't too rough.  :)

Absolutely, my friend!  Right now, my shiplists (well, my models got deleted by accident and I haven't the gumption for quite some time now to fish through my CDROMs for all of those many models I put in over time!) for both SFC2s are toast.  All I've been playing is SFC1.

Great job cpthooker and Alec!! :o I agree with SF2...in this case ugly and mean are synonymous. ;D

To save mankind-yourself you scorned to save."
