How to create models in XSI and other 3D applications and make them work in Battlefront 1 & 2. Post models, tips for application usage and share anything XSI, 3DMax, SketchUp, etc.
Got the basic shape down with a small amount of detail so far, kinda a tough one when there is like no reference images out there. It is to scale though with a sith trooper and fighter in the hangar for reference (not shown).
Gonna be a pain to UV map but perhaps splitting it up like the stock cruisers then UVing it may be a little easier.
EDIT:
I'm also looking for suggestions on interior layouts of this ship, definitely don't wanna reuse the stock assets and also want something that looks a bit different.

are the hangers the 2 openings in picture 2? if they are thats a perfect place for them. as for the interior maybe an engine room with reactors and stuff instead of just the cooling tanks, and maybe a cargo bay and crew quarters and maybe even a bridge if you could get either a ramp or elevator up to that level. sorry if i'm suggesting something a bit crazy but i never got to model before so i don't know exactly how hard it is (i'm attempting to learn how to model some things and find a nice tutorial right now before i download XSI) and i don't really know how much can fit in the ship since i don't know the size. anyway it looks awesome so far.
Yeah, those 2 openings are the hangars, everything is to scale, I used my own sith fighter and a trooper model. I doubt I'll go too crazy with the interior after thinking about it since I wanna do a battle over telos map and I want it to be all space combat, no boarding other ships.
Yeah if you want you can post them in this thread but like I said I may not do as much a interior as the stock cruisers have because this ship is actually a small interdictor. I think it's only like half the size of an ISD-II (the most common ISD).
I'm gonna save the full interior ship to be the Centurion class battle cruiser a.k.a. The Ravager since before I release any of my KotOR stuff I wanna do a battle over Telos map first.
