Death Star 1 (my version)

Post by Skrinl »

Hi I thought I ought to announce what I have started working on, seeing as there is another Death Star 1 in progress.

I am currently going at great lengths in my spare time to create high resulotion models in order to create nice maps for the level. I know that obviosly I will be looking for an optimised (low polly) terrain/model for the actual game engine, but I still wanted to create as much realism in my mapping as I could.

This is my first mod map here, I love modelling and work in the animation field. I think this forum is a great idea and hope to use it to create cool map(s).

here is my max models. after a couple of evenings work....

Nice. Very nice. They'd be perfect for the Death Star's surface. Actually, they could be useful in other projects too, not just the Death Star. I can think of quite a few places that could use the models.

Actually, I was planning on doing a Fondor shipyards map, but I don't know anything about modelling. Maybe you could help me out? Contact me if you're interested; I could use some cool little building pieces and scaffolding and stuff for the map. I'd just need a dedicated modelling partner to help me out. It might be hard though. But hey, I might as well ask.

Keep up the good work anyway. You're doing a great job.

I will be happy to help you out. Might have to pick your brains when it comes to setting up this mod as it is my first one! :P I enjoy modelling, so just let me know what you are after!

I'll send my msn address in a PM.....I am on there during the day but usually very busy...best to contact me in the evenings!

Regards!

Okay guys I am having real trouble trying to export the meshes and premade textures / maps from softimage into the game.....any helpers and pointers will be really helpful.

Also I am a total noob at scripting this, I read through the documents but seem none the wiser...please help me.... :?

Skrinl,
I would recommend you visit psychoFred's forum he's one of the devs for the game and he has posted a great deal of information there.

Well, it looks like that I may not have the time to work out all the scripting for this map....so I guess, unless anyone is willing to give me a hand in producing it, I may well be not doing it, unfortunately. :(
