EvilleJedi's Venator

This is a conversion of Evillejedi's Venator model from his Homeworld 2 mod that I had intended to put in the now defunct BOC map. The model was converted with permission.

I converted the model to swbf2, 'optimized' the model so that it would work well in swbf2 and it was a real pain in the butt, so while evillejedi deserves the credit, I wouldn't at all mind if you credited me for doing some work also :wink:

Also, a HUGE thank you to fragme for helping me with all my technical difficulties while I was doing this.

Looks a little thin but it sure beats the pants out of the shipped one. Image

But it doesn't have a hangar.

it has a bottom-hangar

the model and texture are amazing!

a small suggestion: give it detail-mapping then it will look "less blurry" ingame

...How do u do that, just wondering.



ON TOPIC: This model far surpasses. If you want to be nitpicky, I can say taht the *fins* at the aft of the ships are meant to be wider (thats why people say its a bit thin)

But honestly, who cares, the detail put in far surpasses.

(now if only we can detail up the ship systems too.......)

Wow, nice.

Everytime I saw this model on JK, I thought if someone will convert this, it would be awesome.

Will use this for my secret project :thumbs:

EDIT: Waitwaitwait, isn't EvilleJedi in EaW too? :?

Ah well, it is still awesome.

It looks really nice. I've come across EvilleJedi's work before and was thoroughly impressed.

That's where I've seen most of his work.

Thanks everyone, just remember that this is EvilleJedi's model. And I seem to recall that he had a hand in making an EAW mod using his models.

Sounds like a good idea but how is that done? The texture is pretty nice to begin with but I had to shrink the model for it to be a suitable size in swbf2 so as a result, the compressed image looks blurry.

I put it in a groundmap, and on greater distance the only part you see is the left front part. :(

Nice, but it'd be cooler if it had the hangar(s) at the top, like on TCW.
