It really depends. If you want, you can add default turrets from the assets on there. The Arc Hammer's primary function is to produce all Dark Trooper phases. It's a factory, basically. It would probably only have defensive turrets at the most, as it's not really made for assaulting space stations and the like. Add to this a few escort ships to help it out and you have a pretty good force there for assaulting hostile systems.

When do you plan on finishing?
I can't wait!

When they're done of course.
I want to model a few more ships before they are sent out in correct format for modders to use them in maps. Problem is, I dunno what scale they'd be in-game.

You need some texture variation. It just looks like a big grey mass. Likewise, have you fixed the UVs on your original model so that the texture doesn't stretch down the length of the hull?

Yeah. I'm aware, about the Texture variation. Just a place holder for now. And yes I did. I made it cubic so it wouldn't stretch down.

what might the Doomgiver be from?
what i meant was are you going to release them individually or as a huge pack?

Probably as a huge pack, most likely.
As for the Doomgiver. It's from Jedi Outcast.
But I'm doing the 'Doomgiver-II' which is that, just without the pods and it can stand more of an attack.
I also have a question:
I'm trying to add more variety in the texture on the Doomgiver. However, when I select certain pieces I want and when I want to retexture them, it retextures the entire damned ship.

Good job on those models Revan,they're going to be released models soon I'm guessing?

That's what I am hoping.
And no offense, SilvaDalek, but this is Star Wars, not Dr. Who. While Dr. Who does rock, I am doing only Star Wars ships and etc right now.

I'm going back to my Doctor Who sites to find some modelers (i hope lol)

Anything I could be doing wrong in it?

What are you doing? Are you selecting polygon islands or faces or something and then entering the texture menu?
Otherwise, there's no reason why modifying the correct part of the texture you assigned should "texture the whole ship."

I think i've got the same problem... I always use Rectangle select on poly's, so you have selected a certain piece of the mesh, but when you add uv's/image/texture/howeveryouwanttocallit it still textures the whole mesh u only selected the polies off (is this what you mean Rev?

)

It's a major pain in the rear because you're trying to texture incorrectly. Texturing doesn't work by selecting a part of a model and texturing just that. You texture the whole polymesh at once.

I finalize my textures on the individual meshes, before I ever merge it into one model.

Ah crap. I feel stupid now.
Oh, by the way, since I'm not really making it anything but a prop/destroyable object perhaps, do I only have to make it a .obj and .msh?
