3D Model Showroom

I’ve made a Liberty Gunboat, what do you think?
Not finished, just a WIP.

I think it doesn’t fit into the typical Libertian style of ships.

Liberty ships don’t have such clumpy wings, Rheinland ships do. Liberty ships are more streamlined, elegant.

Like the defender?

Although the fact that Defender has not streamlined wings, I’ve made some modifications.

For a first try it’s not bad. The geometry is still very simple, you need more details. You also have to use more textures. Yours are very streched and will be very blurry in game -> looks not good. (except your Gunship is smaller than a Defender?)

I use the best it exists, Fagu’s textures, I will keep it because it is good enough, for me. When it will be finished I will post it to the download section.

Speaking of gunboats, found this lurking on my hd. It’s from some ancient mod from 2004. The model was made by LordFjord iirc. It’s bit more Liberty looking, i think anyway

Excelcia mod gunboat. Not a bad design for it’s time, but most of it is a hacked about rescaled Liberty cruiser

I agree, but at least it looks like it’s from the Liberty stable. Oddly i saw this model on MODDB in some other mod and did some digging on my hd before i found it in the Exelcia mod.

Yup, Discovery uses it.

HOLY-!
My retexts are actually being used by PEOPLE?

I liek the ship. Though not as gunboat. More as something in-between gunboat and fighter. Id fix those textures in the engine part, though. Too streched.

Of course they are you nutter

Finished Engine’s UV map of Liberty gunboat

Niiice. Now it does look awesome

Here is the finished work.

I’ve made some models, however, I’m not sure on the convertion from Wings3D format to Freelancer, since I cant figure out what the model formats are for Freelancer.
It’s for a faction idea I have, Im wanting to make it so.



First 3 are similar, the Quarin was first, the rest were made later on.
I only have 1 view of the train for the faction, I named it the Santa Fe.

I have fighter models and a freighter model. But these, I thought, were desent enough.

I’ve converted models from Wings3D into a ms3d format… cant remember which format i used… it was years ago but i know it can be done It wasn’t too easy however but i think that was more to do with the mesh i was working on and a few bad polys.

That looks nice by the way

Oh and a message for those in posestion of something awesome we need bumpmaps… stat 8-) I’ve just been playing with X2’s ships and wow… bumpmaps man… so very groovy so very simple yet wow… yeah… we need them… so we can evolve

Chow.

I used to export from wings in .3ds format to ms3d then cmp out to fl. You’ll have to rotate the object though. Or use export obj from wings to ms3d.

Thanks for the info. Anyway, those models by Sizer seem to be in need of their own mod of provided as replacements or new ships. Alot of em caught my eye.

Something for a class project.
