Thoughts about shipmaking and mods

Kuze

-I do like making ships, except when I am to depressed too do anything.

-Star Citizen, hmm imo my ships are not on a same quality level as the SC ones, I doubt they will ever be in any SC mod.

-The proper formats…well usually convert them to cmp because they are mostly for FL, but maybe I am doing it wrong, maybe a lightwave or Max format is enough. And maybe I can follow SolCommand’s example and release a ship for DL after it is done, or dunno.

.OBJ is your best universal format for most games. I often make random ships to experiment with new techniques and design aesthetics. Gotta keep your knife sharp.

LancerSolurus

Actually I have seen you do a lot of nice ships. I was unable to test them due to them being in the cmp format.

While the next version of WTS might be the last one,
you’ll find once more a few of your ships added.

TY for your nice ships.

PS.
We need an android client for FL, to get all those zombies playing,
you + me see all day running past with their eyes stuck to their handy.

And I thought the cmp is the best solution, hmm next time I will know what format to use.

Also thanks for the feedback, I think I will make a few more ships for FL in the near future…Not sure atm if fighters or commercial ships.

I always forget about LancerSolurus’s galaxy empire, now there’s a man who’ll have all the ships you can throw at him

Kuze

Hmm I convert the ships into .obj soon.

LancerSolurus

@Timmy, very true, plenty of factions are still in serious needs of some ships. I lost my code for Milkshape due to a virus wiping out my Vista installation so I have no way of converting them (isn’t there a max plugin for that somewhere?)

sadly my mod for freelancer does not require space ships, so i cant use any of the great models you (or anyone else) makes.

if you feel like making some airships instead, let me know. lol

Kuze

Airships? Weeeell I love steampunk and dieselpunk (like everyone should :)) and actually I always wanted to make a space steampunk stuff or airship, so maybe some day I do make an airship.

.OBJ format is the way to go, guarantees universal useage and simple to convert to FL format. If you look at turbosquid or similar, nearly everything on there is in OBJ format for this reason.

Still a few mods being released, Genesis was the last one i saw on moddb but there are others
