Haha SC, bloody marvelous. Looks superb, like Predator said, a happy gibbon. I was going to use a special ship for parked ships anyway but the base itself is excellent, well done and thx

Seeing some of you have a hard time with the .max format here’s an archive with all the models in .3ds format. I converted all the models just now and it felt like it took forever Didnt checked if they all converted properly so if you find one not working, blame it on the software not the man

I gotta say i’m not really into the “Hotel New California” design but I will give it a try these days. Meanwhile I’m gonna start working on a personal project, an idea that came to me when I converted these models. Gonna see if anything good is gonna come out of it.

Here’s something I made along those lines.
The poly count is without the ships
Also if needed the poly count could go lower if you remove the pipes, but I like them.

hi SolCommand this what Dartmop and i have make from it

the Predator Galactic Truckstop billboard is a hologram
from witch side you come fly the board turns to you
looks very cool thx m8
and the credits will be given to you

One has to seriously wonder …
HOW THE HELL I MISSED THIS!!! 8-)

Awesome, so glad you packed them all into one… as that would have been my request (lol). not a UV map expert though… Im better changing what is set out by the makers… but this would be a good time to start as any i suppose.

Thank you Immensely for your contribution to the community!

@ Pred… cant wait to dock “there” m8… U need some hired security to patrol the grounds m8… Just holla… MCP will gladly work for drinks… lol

Predator

i have the same model with the text Galactic Truckstop,
without my name.
was for fun to show it to SolCommand

SolCommand

M8 that looks pretty darn cool. Nice job ! Can I see some more pics from different angles/distance …… maybe with ships near-by

SolCommand

Yeah I know, double post, but it’s worth it

Here’s what I came up with using that “hotel” as a guide. Hope you guys like it …… I named it “TAU Intelligence”:

1st: cool work + ty 4 sharing.

2nd this will be part of the next WTS test version
(hopefully ready during the next weekend)

so why not register with the WTS World forum,
so you can take a few screens yourself.

Cheers

Registered, awaiting activation.

Now …… who’s project is next ? I’m interested in doing stations or objects that you could find floating in the universe, an unknown object here, an automated mining drone there … etc ( I for one like to see other things in the universe aswell, not just ships and stations). I just need you to provide some pics as guidelines and we’re cool.

Predator

maby you can give this a try;)

One thing I’ve always though would be cool looking is a capital-grade shipyard INSIDE an asteroid. Think of the standard FL asteroid bases with cylindrical bays scaled up several times, remove the docking bay door and build a shipyard inside the bay itself.

Here are some images for visuals of the type of idea I’m trying to convey:

SolCommand

Has anyone ever tried to do this in Freelancer ? I’m not even sure if the scale and detail amount of such a model would go well with the game’s engine.

Btw Predator, I could do something closer to your “hotel” design but that would probably up* the poly count considerably. You’d still want it that way ?

Arvis Taljik

I wasn’t talking about any super high-poly lol.

The structures can all be very simple, including the interior construction areas.

Tell you what, if you can model an asteroid with a cylindrical hole in one side, I can fill it with the shipyard stuffs and shoot it back to you.

Tunicle

I must say I applaude your approach to helping FL an excellent attitude, well done.

SolCommand

Thx man. Trying to do my part … since I loved playing mods I might as well help the ppl that make them. As you see my models are kinda basic, with no textures but even so, if some find them useful means I achieved my goal.

Arvis Taljik, if you already have some low-poly stuff built can u give me an archive with them ? Maybe I could use them in this or other future projects. Usually when I model something it’s a cross between a low-poly and detailed model, that’s why the poly count on the finished* model (what i post here) is not that low. I would like to keep adding detail to a model but I remember it’s a game so usually I stop at around 10.000 polys. Speaking of which, nowadays what’s a “usually-found” poly count for a model -> ship, base, others ?

As I said in an earlier post now I’m working on a personal project also. A detailed capital ship but since time is limited it will take me quite a wile to complete it, if I’ll ever complete it lol. It’s not the first such project I start and get bored of half way through the work. Still, making models-by-request in my spare time wile I’m working on my own stuff keeps me interested/on-track

Arvis Taljik

I don’t have any sort of repository of things I’ve modeled for the most part. I normally purpose-build items from scratch as I need them. If you’d like to collaborate on this asteroid-shipyard though I’d be more than happy to swap ideas and work on different portions together.

SolCommand

Just letting you guys know I’m working on a new project atm, a detailed ship. I dunno if it can be used in the game as it might end up with a pretty high poly count but once it’s done I’ll get back to your requests and help you shape your mods a little more the way you like them. It could take me a while to do this model since I kinda hit an inspirational wall when it comes to the ship’s backside, I just cant find a shape for it that I feel comfortable with. But I’ll keep trying that’s for sure

Btw I’m always looking for pics I can add to my “ideas” database, meaning, sketches or images of ships, bases or other cool scifi objects or stuff in general that I could model or use as an inspiration for an original model so please feel free to post here that sort of images of stuff you like as it could help me a lot in my current and future projects. Thanks.

SolCommand

Decided to take a break from the detailed ship and do a little side project. I made this ship just for fun in a couple of hours after a pic i found on the net. If you find a use for it cool, if not, I’ll blow it up

It has 2506 polys.
