Title: Gunstar-1?
Post by: Shadowknight1 on July 08, 2008, 09:51:08 PM

Has anyone attempted or at least been tempted to make the Gunstar from The Last Starfighter for BC?  It may be a fighter type ship, but luckily the Gunstar is around the size of the Sovereign's captain's yacht, and I think it would look awesome in BC.  One pic here: http://www.meshweaver.com/frames/Portfolio/images/gstar/readyblossom.jpg

The Meshweaver site has more views of the Gunstar, including full orthographic views.

I think someone at dynaverse may have made a model of this. I would ask:

You'll need to be registered and logged in for that link to take you to the right spot though.

Hmmm...I'm seeing a model (LSF Gunstar as a matter of fact), but the last update was in 06.  And of course, it's for SC3...

ok, maybe you can find out if it's finished and if you can port it?

Hmm...a possibility, if I knew how to port from SC3...is it difficult and what programs would I need?

Yeah like SF2 said... sfcII and III are pretty much identical.... u will have no problems converting to either format.

You should only need Milkshape to convert it to NIF, you can find the importer/exporter tools on the same site: http://chumbalum.swissquake.ch/ It is shareware, though, so make sure you get it all done in 30 days unless you plan on buying. ;)
