WOW! that is looking great!

here you have a finished ship, im not done with the first one yet as im not satisfied with it.

The person who knows what ship was the inspiration for that gets a cookie :>

It looks like any of the City Class river iron clads. Otherwise I would say CSS Virginia (Merimack). Is that right?

With Mackie and Atheorhaven doing these hi-quality models, I was inspired to start revamping my nefs. I added about 700 polygons and made a separate texture for it:

_sweet_

tbh theyre only seemingly high quality since im yet to optimize them, as said i first sorta flesh out the models and then reduce polies :>
the second nef is only something like 2000 polies as it stands even right now, but that amount will go down too :p

Here is a smoke effect I will be trying in game. Milkshape shows it pretty well, but the real test will be SFC3 engine.

its pretty awesome in a picture but I cant imagine it looking too good when its moving along statically with the model

Yeah, I think you are right. I still want to give it a try, it should at least make for some interesting screenshots.

Bump for updates on Mackie and Atheorhaven's ships!

Mackie · « **Reply #30 on:** July 16, 2007, 11:25:18 am »

no updates as of yet i think im abandoning the first ship for now and creating some others

intermech · « **Reply #31 on:** July 16, 2007, 11:48:12 am »

Yes FW, I used tga's for the smoke, handrails, and propellers.

Mackie, I am saddened about the shelving of the first design, please don't trash the mesh, I am sure it could be used somewhere. I can't wait to see your new designs.

Texturing complete, tested in SFC 1 demo (my usual test bed), just need to scale it down to not be a monsterous size.

Once that's done, light maps next and SFC 3 treatments.. though might adjust one of the textures slightly..

nah man dont get me wrong i did say 'for now' as im mostly just lacking the inspiration to do the texturing

intermech · « **Reply #34 on:** July 21, 2007, 07:08:02 pm »

Here is another one. Considerably smaller than the others.

Thats awesome

kinda like what i was thinking of doing :p

Mackie · « **Reply #36 on:** July 23, 2007, 09:10:05 pm »

Since i've sorta lost my inspiration for the time being i thought i'd show you something of interest that'd look pretty awesome as an aeronef :p

intermech · « **Reply #37 on:** July 24, 2007, 07:14:07 am »

That is a pretty sweet ship there. I love the bow ram.

Mackie · « **Reply #38 on:** August 23, 2007, 09:48:14 am »

Alright I feel a bit humbled right now... I just cant get my self to finish this damn thing so i figured i should release what i have this far if anyone would like to have a shot at it (wink wink interstellar) so that it wouldnt be a complete and utter waste

http://www.the-tcs.net/misc/macksneff.zip

Within the file, there are the textures and the model in .lwo, .cob, .x and .obj formats...
I tried 3ds but I couldnt get the model to convert right, deepexplo (the program i use for file conversions) butchered it every time because it seemed like it wanted to triple the model. TWICE

atheorhaven · « **Reply #39 on:** August 23, 2007, 04:23:34 pm »

I'll give it a shot when I get home Mackie..

Mine isn't completed yet (along with some other SFC projects) because I'd started another, different, sort of project.. this was inspired by this and the steampunk mods I was looking at. Had it drop into my hands, had the stuff, hence the project..

(details at: http://atheorhaven.myblogtwo.com/ )

Don't want to steal the thread.. just want people to know why I've not released the stuff still on my plate..
