Rebuilt the impue stack and improved the deflector area

baz, what is the current texture resolution?

baz1701 · « **Reply #122 on:** January 02, 2009, 05:45:57 PM »

no idea, but I have this ship all on one image 2048x 2048

the textures, especially on the nacelles, seem really blurry. If you put them on a seperate map and enlarge it then it will come out a lot clearer. Same resolution though.

I'm not sure if the warp coil grills inside the nacelles are how they are in the movie, but I still like 'em. Keep up the good work.

they are still rough and need cleaning up, i'm trying to avoid multi textures

right on. thanks for the clarification.

Keep on truckin baz, the model's looking fairly good considering the lack of reference.

well I guess she is as done as I can make her. I'm still having trouble exporting to NIF from MAX 9. I lose textures when I export to 3DS.

Registery spotlights could do with being redone completely. They look too bright and don't fade into the ship very well.

IMHO.

Everything else = AWESOME.

Hey baz, I could help you out with making some nicer looking lightmaps.

Exporting to .3ds screws up the mapping co-ordinates

FourChan · « **Reply #132 on:** January 05, 2009, 02:25:26 AM »

Nice, I can't wait to fight Klingons with it.

baz1701 · « **Reply #133 on:** January 05, 2009, 04:04:54 AM »

When I export to 3DS the lights flash an error saying that they are not exported.

Tonight When I get home I'll upload and release the MAX file and texture file to my file front account if anyone ones to pull it apart, repaint and generally convert it for the game they are welecome to.

Not if you tick the box saying "Preserve MAX's texture coordinates". The only pain with backporting using 3ds that I've found is that you have to reassign textures if you want a remotely useful name for them (I don't count things like "Ship1", "Ship2" as usefull, and thus, never use them).

I had the box ticked. I've used the name temp.tga on a 2048x2048 solo texture. In Nif scope the texture is missing though the ship is intact compare to the first abortion I created.

Why are these things never simple?

baz1701 · « **Reply #136 on:** January 05, 2009, 03:29:14 PM »

a big thank you to wiley for converting my ship and sorting the textures out.

Nifskope never seems to show the textures for me, but they're still there :?

baz1701 · « **Reply #138 on:** January 05, 2009, 04:24:30 PM »

Well thanks to Wiley I can see mine in nifskope so now I have to try and get it working in the game

WileyCoyote · « **Reply #139 on:** January 05, 2009, 04:34:11 PM »

I added the new texture glows which makes the ship look a lot better.

The ship still needs a specular map. That will take less than 5 minutes to make.
