WIP: R41 Starchaser

Inyri · Post by **Inyri** » Sun Mar 19, 2006 3:49 pm

I thought maybe having a bunch of pirate/smuggler ships might make for a cool map with some alternate sides. Of course I think I'll stick to making one fighter first since I've never done it for SWBF2 before, but I've got minilogoguy to teach me if (and when) I get confused

Anwyay, basic model is just about done. Still need to UV map it and skin it, then figure out how to get it in-game. I'll have to do some research in the mean time to see what I can learn on my own from the informative material you all post

I'm up for suggestions. I don't quite know what BF2 is capable of handling so I'm not sure how much detail to actually put in. Although as it's a low-end pirate-type fighter, there's not a whole lot of detail to add anyway.

We've actually got the R-41 released in the BF1 downloads section. I just haven't had time to finish the BF2 odf. But hey, if you're working on a new one, more power to ya!

BTW -- welcome to Gametoast.

Something already released never stopped me from making my own. I prefer the art of it rather than the use

Texturing is going somewhat slow, but it's getting there. It's a bit too brown at the moment... hadn't quite noticed until right now

Edit: Ahh, I see you just ripped the R-41 from XWAUpgrade. It's a good model, but far too different from the original for my tastes. Besides, I prefer making original work.

That's awesome. You'll go far here Inyri!

Inyri has always benn an excellent modder

Good Job on it, it looks just like the R41 from XWA (only better).

Skins almost done, just gotta make sure the engines are the way I want them and I need to do the guns and vents and stuff.

Inyri,
When your done with the R-41 which looks awesome by the way

I think they were wanting models for some ongoing game mods if your interested.

I'd need "they" expanded on to be able to do anything about that

An NJO mod? I wouldn't touch it. Sorry. NJO is on my "things I hate" list.

Why is it on your "things I hate" list?

Inyri · Post by **Inyri** » Tue Mar 21, 2006 7:16 pm

Because it sucks?

Lol. Lots of people just don't like the Vong, Trans. I love the story though.

Inyri · Post by **Inyri** » Tue Mar 21, 2006 7:27 pm

See, I just hate it all. The Vong wouldn't have been so bad if the story didn't suck a-... er, suck very badly.

Anyway, that's a bit off topic. As I don't have foundations I'm having minilogoguy export for me (turns out I kind of goofed a bit on some of the animation, but hey, I'm an animation newbie). Then he's going to teach me how to get it in a test map, because I have him wrapped around my little finger. He just told me that mapping is mostly made of models... I almost wet myself XD.

Umm ok I wasn't suggesting joining a mod team

Inyri · Post by **Inyri** » Tue Mar 21, 2006 9:14 pm

No, you were suggesting I give them models. I might as well join their team.

Anyway, I think we've gone enough off-topic for one thread, don't you? I'm going to start forgetting what I posted soon.

do you need an animation for a thing to take off straight up or is that only if it moves. like doing a 90 degree turn such as the b-wing?
