Warbird (Nebula remodel) WIP

[Morgan]

Looks good to me    Mind if I use that for 'official' loading screen? 

Be my guest    Here it is.

Fix F1/F2   - Confused about this. On my wb bridge, F1 goes to helm, F2 to tac as on other bridges, not ceiling. So can't see prob tiqhud mentioned.

I was using walkfx km edition, so that may have been why.

I used walkfx 'freefloat' took those screenies, then went back to my captians chair, turned myself to look at the view screen, preswsed f1 then view went to ceiling [as stated not a problem, and it may even be my system]

tiq - it has to be your install only...  i dont experience that at all...
also i cant really see how walkfx would alter that?  once you "sit" down, it resets itself to the default bridge captain seating...  i dunno tho...

Red alert status
'Darken bridge' status
(Can't fix at present. This is a generic prob with modding existing bridges as those original light changes hardwired to nifs. When nif is modded, unless original lightmapping/texture names retained - which is unlikely -  light/alert changes are lost. Sorry .   Until can get advice how to create same in all modded bridges, no map/light changes attainable).

i do agree the bridge could use a little more lightening...
i am curious about something tho - when retexturing a bridge, it doesnt alter the red alert ambient lightin..., is it such then when adding models to a nif or whatever that it nullifies the red alert ambient lighting?  i wonder why that would be?  there isnt a way to retain the original lightmapping and ambient lighting?
i have no idea how this all works, ive never tried it; but it seems bizarre somehow...  have you tried to ask mark about it?  i know mark is very very busy these days so he is tough to get a hold of...

That would work if it was a bridge where wanted to keep original lightmapping; what I'd do is make sure nif models part kept same names in max export.  Problem with bridges remodelled so far is changes to lighting etc meant had to re-lightmap.  But as you say, sure Mark will have answers (eventually   )

EDIT:  fixed - see NX to PDW bridge thread

Not surprising

Your Warbird bridge is looking pretty sweet, but I was cruising around the internet looking for more detailed images of the Sovereign's Bridge when I came across this.  It came off of John Eaves blog which is linked below.  I hope it's helpful is someway.
