Models giveaway

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 ?

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

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.

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.

Hehe nop, just the one I showed on the 1st page

Cheers m8 !

Btw I update the images on the first page so that now all the images display here on the forum instead of showing up like a link. It may take a wile for the page to load for some ppl but least you get to see all the models without having to open and close a bunch of web pages.

Thanks guys, your comments make my day
Lonestar, feel free to edit my models any way you feel like, that’s why I posted them all here , for you guys to use them, the way I made them or edit them to suit your needs. About the Tempest, it is included in the pack i posted for downloading, ALL the models you saw here are available for download. Every time I make a post with a new model usually the download link is at the bottom of my post.

Here’s the link to the models archive in case you missed it:

One thing i’d like to ask from all of you guys: come here with some pics that you find interesting, sci fi stuff, ships, bases, objects, etc, things that would/could find a place in a space game such as Freelancer. If I like what I see I might model them and where do you think those models would ultimately go …. here, I’ll post download links for everyone to be able to use them, in any game, not just Freelancer.

Now that looks weird lol

I’ll see if I have some free time at work today to make this one m8 :pint:

In the meantime here’s the ship I’m working on. It is FAR from finished.

I named this ship “Morena”. In my verse it is used for smuggling, illegal salvage and stuff like that. The owner of the ship built it using parts he found floating in space, in derelict ships and stations so I intend to make this ship look as such. The ship is not very detailed atm but it’s still a work in progress so in time that will change. The shape of the ship is based on an older design of mine but since I started working on it I draw inspiration for greebles and such from some other ships I saw in movies (such as Firefly) or on the internet. Guess we’ll see where this goes. Comments and suggestions are welcomed since I kinda hit a wall in the developing of the model.

Cheers.
