Re: NV Intrepid
Lets see how much you drool....
edit; just on a side note, I also have a folder named "models for conversion" the folder is 33 GB. just that folder has 5351 models mostly in MOD format format for sfcIII
but that is part of main folder "models" with 20 GB more with misc ship files.
1400 poly (5 1024 x 1024 textures)

Re: NV Intrepid
awesome could you create a hob from that?
i struggle with seperation of intrepid // because the model you provided has to much poly to create a hob when seperated

Re: NV Intrepid
that model has polygons that overlap, when converted with bsp partial polygons will flicker when viewed at many anglesBenman2785 wrote: ↑Mon Aug 21, 2023 3:42 pm i struggle with seperation of intrepid // because the model you provided has to much poly to create a hob when seperated
other model was worse and would require 12 hours work at least, but re-mapping those textures would be worth the effort.
as for intrepid model the pylons and wing extend into the nacells and hull
this is the issue, but easy to fix. took a couple hours to connect vertexes and re-map. I going to try to do a "separate by face" tutorial with this model.
note; connecting vertexes increased model by 42 polygons.

Re: NV Intrepid
tutorial would be nice - as my knowledge is quiet limited

Re: NV Intrepid
re-texture is taking longer than I expected, but I did add the deflector dish
as for I am having issue setting a mic for video

Re: NV Intrepid

It is sad how much is lost converting to gif
bmp 512x512 (I have better 1024x1024) after converted to gif

Re: NV Intrepid
pretty good - now we need a hob
the ship is 187m long - so a scale in flt of 10 and a scale of 18,7 while converting to hob should give good size results

I have already done a test separation without any issues.Benman2785 wrote: ↑Tue Aug 22, 2023 5:16 pm now we need a hob

I am starting to think it might look better more gray than "dirty"

Re: NV Intrepid
I am never happy with models, (this is why I don't do them very often any more)
I had to re-do the necells again for the lighting of necells
just as a comparison of polygons
original un-edited model (from 3ds) was 1038 polygons (3114 vertex)
I am hoping my final (current) model will be 1184 polygons (3552 vertex)
note; adding deflector was 88 poly of the 146 additional polygons I added.

Re: NV Intrepid
i know that feeling - i even enhanced D'Kyr, Sh'Raan and Ni'Var model again - now with correct size - and did several tries with texture. but thats why its a hobby and not paid work - here the only limit is our own perfection
will you provide 3ds or hob? - because my hob/flt has bsp issues xD

Re: NV Intrepid
yes when I get files created, but same as you I am still above vertex limit after separation.Benman2785 wrote: ↑Wed Aug 23, 2023 3:35 pm will you provide 3ds or hob? - because my hob/flt has bsp issues xD
EDIT;
here is a quick shippack but I am not happy with separation still flashes a lot in necells
