ATheorhaven sent me his glows for my little travel pod, and it got me thinking.... this first one is very primitive and not very good (mesh wise) and since you guys really like this very over looked little design I thought I owed it to the community to address this one with the same attention I give the big ships so here's the new model. Oh and YES Bernard will be included in the new textures LOL

ModelsPlease,

Excellent!  Thank You!  When will you upload this new version of TMP Travel Pod to the Battle Clinic website?  I can't wait to download it.

Okay, teaser shot is done.. and Bernard now has a body.  ;)

Probably a couple more tweaks yet.. I found not too bad an interior shot that I am working off for the interior.  But this shows you about where the illumination maps are right now.  The cool thing is that you'll not see these normally, Bernard only comes out when its dark out.  :D

Looking good so far Alec. I found 2 great screenies that should help you with the illuminations. I attached them to this post  ;)

Which version of the game are you making this for?

If it is for SFC3, I can do my transparency trick and set the starfleet personnel back a bit so that it does not look like they are crammed against the window.

Should be released (I think) for all versions, MP has a lit and non-lit version, and I can do up glows and _??.BMP shots for it for SFC 3.

We should get together on IM one of these weekends, I'd like to learn that trick, it's one I don't know yet.  ;)

That'd definitely be better, to get the full body shot of you, I added your avatar photo to a shot of Bill Shatner's TWOK uniform up on auction.  ;)

It didn't turn out too bad.. but it'd be better to get an actual full shot.  :D

Agreed, let's get together the three of us. Absolutely do a version for SFC 3 IM as I've done a SFC1 and SFC2 version so far.

ok i kinda just realized the reference pic i was working from is a different variant of pod, i noticed just as i started the lightmap for the altered texture.
MP or Alec, think it might be possible to remap the pod to accept the updated texture?

ive included the texture and lightmap in jpeg so people can see what ive done. and ive also thrown in the rar with the bmps

I'll see what I can do with it later on tonight, the weekend was a write-off for me trying to get anything done other than family stuff.  :p  (Two Christmas parties and buying our son a computer for school ate a good amount of time).  :/

Sorry for the delay on my part.. the only reason why I have anything new to post is because I'm having a less busy day at work and had a chance to work on a few things.  :)

Here's a shot of the SFC 3 glow (just went with a mild basic one.. the light on the bottom)  and this shows off a bit of the illumination textures.  Light source is on the window, so you're not seeing the interior.

SFC III ? Does that mean the SFC 1 and 2 versions are done already ?

Well, it does mean that any tweaks that I do on the illumination maps will be for both, yup.  :D

I am going to clean up the main texture a bit if you don't mind.. I would like this to be as clean as possible before I send it over.  I can vectorize a majority of the texture, and that'll clean it up a lot.  And then once that's complete, and I've done a few more things, I'll send both maps your way.

Btw, I've tried remapping the mesh for FW, and I keep munging it up for some reason.. :p
