Ive decided to post my own Whale probe.
-I want to tweak the specular a little
-I need to fix a seam on the ball.
-I want to do a glow map, so the ball its full bright.
-I also need to do the animation textures for the ball to spin.
One thing im concerned about is the glow part of the probe. Ive used a few cylinders with varying levels of opacity, i think id rather use planes with an alpha channel opacity but im not sure if this is possible in BC - does anyone know at all?

I cant Hp and I dont plan to learn, so would anyone like to give it a go?
Pref someone who has released something before.
cheers
-
another waleprobe? - looks good anyhow :)
-
Good job so far.. it looks sweet.. I like how dark and eery it is :)
-
The only thing more scary is a dysons sphere, wondering why your in-system warp cancelled until hearing *boom*. ;)
-
Someone did do a dysons sphere didn't they? I never saw any pictures of it though.
-
i have one coming up ;)
-
excellent, il look forward to seeing that!
All we need now is the 2001 monolith and we have the primitive shape set.
-
Hey, you could probably use that engine overload mod to re-inact the probe's disabling abillities.
-
Looks better than my one.
It looks like I can cancel my one.
-
No dont cancel yours, youl never learn or improve that way!
-
How can you make it to suck ALL power out of a starship, within a certain radius?
-
I'm not sure how it would work, but I think it would be better if it sucked like 97 percent of power rather then all of it, just for playability issues.

Great model! The sound of the probe for an eventual release could be added also!

no, that's not the sound it made, i'm damned sure about that! anyone got STIV to confirm this?

I do and it's not the sound it made when it was moving but it is the whale call.
-
Yes! But to the beginning of the film one feels also while one moves! It only ends when the sphere re-enter!!
-
woot this Is the sound it made but there were also another sound... something like veeeeeerry slow vibration, dunno :d my old washing machine made similiar sound :P but this sound is also proper, I recall some borg cube had borg chatter as a weapon without projectile and effect, just for fun, you could add that sound to blank weapon without projectile or damage effects would be cool :D
-
:lol: Yes!!! It could be an idea in order to use it! :)
-
The noise it makes gehnerally is a wom wom wom wom like below:
-
You wouldn't need to make the sound a projectile, just simply make it the engine noise, since that essentially was the probe's engine sound. (Yes I realize the sound was from the sphere.)

Dr_McCoy,
Very good whale interpretation. Maybe you'll finally get command of a starship!
Additionally, that's a a very sharp model, but it's going to be the slowest moving object
in Bridge Commander!
-
Aye it maybe slow but it il disable any ship that attempts to approach plus its bigger than starbase one :P
-
The rate of speed that thing moved at in ST IV suggests it was probably created during the
Big Bang.
