Is the stock Acclamator frigate a normal size compared to
Bertie's enormus Venator?

place both in your world to find out...

Ya I did that, but i never knew the differrence between
the size of an Acclamator in relationto a Venator.
All I knew was that Acclamator's smaller.

From Wookieepedia
Venator is 1137 meters long
Acclamator is 752

So not quite half the size.

OK. in my case, the Acclamator is like 1 100th of the size
of the venator. lol. So if someone would be willing to make
an up-to-size acclamator that would be so cool.

It'd be so cool if requests were posted in the request thread, too.

Also, be advised that it's possible to scale things up via a msh.option command "-scale x", where x is a number greater than 0 (.5 would make the object half normal size, 2.0 would double it's size, etc.)

Do i need a special program to make my own, extra large, Acclamator?

That method can be a bit... iffy. Generally, it causes the object to disappear at certain angles, especially when you make it more than 2 times the normal size. However, I think wazmol released a larger Acclamator ship (with hangers) in the Released Assets forum, but I don't know if it's the correct proportions in comparison to the Venator or not.

I knew of that; in fact I had once tried to make the Mos Eisley arena five times larger.

I was merely pointing out a size-scaling posibility, though it would probably be a bit less than adequete to his needs. Incidentally, does that disappearing bug occur in animated models, particularly playermodels? I've scaled a wampa up much more than twice, and I recall a map of Dann_Boeing's along similar lines, Rhen Var I believe....

Also, if you are in some way shape or form displeased with wazmol's rather good Acclamator and feel the need to make your own, the program you want is XSI (or a 3-d modelling program such as Blender or 3Ds). Straight XSI makes for easiest conversion to MSH format, however.

never mind. i just downloaded Wazmol's assets, and the acclamator is problably
big enough.
