Right guys soon I will post renders of the mantis refit hopefully tonight and this time I am adding more detail to areas like the windows and places like that. My main question is what do you want the reg to be? NCC or NX?

She's an experimental, first of her class...make her NX ;)

ncc sounds better

Rob Archer · « **Reply #3 on:** October 03, 2006, 09:12:05 AM »

It all depends:

if this ship is a refit of the Prototype Mantis then it would get the NCC registy like the Excelsior after it had its transwarp drive removed.

Thats my idea

MYar · « **Reply #5 on:** October 03, 2006, 11:23:25 AM »

If it is to change a few things like what happened on the nx-2000 en the ncc-2000 , I suggest using the ncc registry

cpthooker · « **Reply #6 on:** October 03, 2006, 11:26:56 AM »

well i will post some renders tonight and you will see if its worth changing to NCC but so far the poly count is nearly at 7000 as I am not holding back on the detail this time.

here are some renders, still more to do as in the deflector and the underside of the main hull

Not bad at all Cpthooker, very nice mesh. If she's anything like the original we're in for a treat!!

mitchhankins · « **Reply #13 on:** October 04, 2006, 03:23:59 PM »

yeah

what are the texture resolutions you're planning on?

cpthooker · « **Reply #14 on:** October 04, 2006, 05:12:47 PM »

might just stick to 1024, but may do 2048

k cool, if you just give 1024 to low end comp. and you also supply the packadge of your ship with 2048 then high end users could use 2048 in their installations

...and you might also do the source textures 2048 ;) I'm doing it like that for a while now.

Looks great, I really like the detail you've got on there.

cpthooker · « **Reply #18 on:** October 05, 2006, 03:32:43 PM »

update, she has around 9500 polys so far
