A simple removal of the detail maps from the hull shader brings out a LOT of detail.
It used the Steel bitmap as a detail map which darkened lots of the features on the base map.

what are the remaining bugs?

-sideways firing weapons
-some sitting position rotation
-the thing seems to fishtail when flying straight, that might be the result of a poorly rotated animation (my error)
-physics need to be perfected
-I need to apply my clear window textures so you can see outside from the inside
-um
-uh
-then I need to get some custom sounds

ok... why wont the ls sound work for this?

Because I don't like it.

Actually I have a large library of engine sounds, I just need to pick the right one.

-sideways firing weapons// Fixed
-some sitting position rotation// tell me wich way on X fire
-the thing seems to fishtail when flying straight, that might be the result of a poorly rotated animation (my error)// Fixed
-physics need to be perfected// Almost sue me it's only in the floor a little now else ill make it hover a little intentionel (like 1 inch or smething)
-I need to apply my clear window textures so you can see outside from the inside just tell me wich
-then I need to get some custom sounds// i pray not the one you sended me it sounds like a dieing rotor boat <_<;

I like it but the only thing you should change is that freakishly large ridicule. I like the LS but hate it at the same time because of that.

Fix reticle. something smaller and round (like the hog gunner).

asides from pilot (and gunner), the other seats are all 3rd person? (asides from the seats with nothing to look out. like the seat in front of the ramp into the LS on the LS).

I'd love to sit in those comfy seats if they had a good view out some windows.

Change reticle - done

The 4 seats for passengers are all in first person, and a transparent texture has been applied to the interior windows.

After the map it's going in gets released.

video of it mb?

specifically of you going through the entrence, a good peruse of the passenger area and cockpit, then some of how it flys (and handles and shoots) and perhaps some first person from the passenger seats inflight looking around the cabin and out the window?

Thanks for fixing the ridicule. That really bugged me.

to begin with that was a modded version of coldsnap for a clan project, secondly it will be released in an other map that a briliant team of monkey's is working on, as long as we give them bannana's there happy

you dont have to feed them selentic does that

make sure you dont have a loud sound, it gets annoying and you cant hear if someone is shooting at you...

Must... Get... Topics... To... First... Page...

NO NOT THIS TOPIC. He'll spam this one too! My Precious.

Whenever Jin and Selentic get their rear-ends in gear we can start talking release dates.

oe oe, busted for the monkey that i am, but hey you're making me wok on ya physics 24/7 mean man :( + hostile keeps ordering stuff <.< the waiting list is at 5 things right now and he aint an easy customer who the hell wants a ship the size of 9 ls's <_<

edit: fixed the physics working on ya passenger seats now, and polly wants a cracker

are the windows clear yet? if so, can you put up a screenie? if not you just made squeaky sad WAGH!!!

NO I DID NOT!!!! (well i thought about it)

who knows.... either way... it will be a bad experience....

ok... any updates? or a video?

I have the final tags on my HD now. I just need to make the needed tweaks to them and then you can expect a video.

YAY!!!


so how does it fly? and ERD? (estimated release date)
the name says all ESTIMATED ex. next week.

also did you make the windows clear?

flys nice, cept for the tail getting in the way of the camera.
ERD: idk, idc, dm atm
Windows are clear

ok, so you just need to pull back the camera or raise it right?

Map and tag, I believe.

Protected map first, tag second.

i can put you in a box (taped shut)... is that enough protection?

EDIT: oops the monkies are in there... now you will be tortured by them MUAHHAHAAA!!!!

You have quite a knack for getting of topic you know that? Not that I really care, just noticed that. ;)

your lucky, they were the nice playful monkies that throw poo...

did someone say snack? i hope its some potato chips with the dippy things!!!!

ok, so... uhhh..... updates?

what are you talking about?
ok, so any updates?

all he has to do is to set the sounds the hud and the weps then it's done i got all the bugs outoff the model... well except 2 minor one's dunno but he wanted to keep them <.<

1. is that the tail is airborn while on the floor (because of the shape the ship is made)
2.is that you might fall trough the cockpit floor if you're walking in that area (while not flying) he wnated it like that so i didn't touch that <.< annyhow the rest is hsi work now, but i reckon he's to bizy cause he got like 3 maps a texting job for me (traded that service for helping with the vech) and his own weps

BTW did we ever post it's brother ship? <____< what i aint doing his ship alone.....




Dai-Gurren Class ship, prime function: Making sure the stingray and the kraken don't get blown to bits.

speed dbl the longswords
Armor high

Weapon set consists out of 2 6 pack launcher's of homing rockets with verry limited range (need to reload for 30 seconds)

And a main cannon on the front end with long range and high fire power but slow propulsion
