Freeworlds: Tides of War - A Starwars Total Conversion Mod!

Sounds good. Hopefully we can get more attention to this site, Freelancer with all of your efforts. I also really appreciate the mention in all of your advertising, this is what this community is all about

Just wanted to show you all the new model/texture additions to the FW:ToW mod. Of special interest, the Imperial Star Destroyer which over 130k polygons and doesn’t slow up the game one bit

On SP or on MP?

The moddels look ace btw.

MP. We aren’t really doing much with SP other than have it an SP-open mod.

Definitely. We cut up the ISD in seven parts and then put it back together. I’d have to make a tutorial for the nit gritty, but Sovereign made me 7 different .cmps. In the main .cmp I put in the HpAttach01-HpAttach06. For the other 6 .cmps I put in HpConnect at 0,0,0 - since all the .cmps were based around that. I put in the proper code in the solar\loadouts.ini file, and the proper entry into the solararch.ini. The whole trick of it was making the 6 .cmps “shieldgenerators”. The game then attaches them to the ship that way Dev pioneered this trick about 2 years ago. Aldebaran used it for his scenery components.

So, this 130k poly model, is essentially 7 15k models to the FL engine. To us, it looks as one 130k model.

Would you be willing to cook up that tut plz? I am in need of the means to contend w/ a cpl of High Poly ms3d objects to create into complete cmps, one of them is a ship.

Fus

Ya, when I find the time to do it, I’ll make one. The issue right now is that I’m doing a few tutorials for some peeps in different mods and its getting busy in med school now, so, you’ll have to wait a few weeks until things settle down for me.

Just wanted to show you all the new models/textures we’re putting into FW: ToW. All credit of getting these ships in game goes to Sov here. I just did the coding.

20k ish. We didn’t have to break it up, fortunately

Dockable base That’s about it…hehe.

Thanks for the compliments, boys. Only reason why we have such well trained people are:

1. We’re friggin’ stubborn (all Devs are this way)
2. Great tutorials and help here at TSP
3. We have the power of the ZOMGBAYZ on our side

Also, I’m really excited to see what the merger of War Torn and Shattered Worlds can make. There’s another awesomely trained crew.

Anywho, more cool stuff coming down the pipe. I’ll post eye candy when I get the chance to show you guys!
