Huh? I am trying to figure out if your slapping me in the face, saying it looks terrible or just hi jacking the thread. (maybe all three) Either way that comment was out of line.

I dont think it look terrible

It looks pretty good, BUT, i think you should add a LOT more detail. Since its a capital ship, i think that you could use about 6 k polys for it (each space map has only 2 cappies) so i think u should add more detail. BUt the basic shape is there
PS: What do you mean by "slapping me in the face"?

Yea, what Drummerzoid said. The guidelign say 3000 polygons for building, but i think u can strech (pretty big strech

) that to 6000 in space.
Offtopic: Drummer' I've been busy lately and i haven't got time to texture the AT-OT. Sorry

It looks pretty sweet, and, obviously its from KOTOR I or II, but I really can't recall what hte Leviatan is! Lol!
Was it Nihilus's ship? Malak's? Mr. Crackle-skin's?
...Or am I just plain wrong? lol

no but i started on these before the mod tools were even out, i just dont like to show half finished models, well i did for the b-wing but painting a texture from scratch takes alot longer than coloring over someone elses or reskining so it takes time. oh yeah, darth nihilus' flag ship was called the Ravager, i have that one about half modeled.

Off-topic : Epena, the
Leviathan was commanded by Admiral Saul Karath, himself under Darth Malak's orders... Regarding Darth Nihilus, I can remember that his
main Sith Interdictor was labelled the
Ravager...
On-topic : Glad to see a
GameToast member has
finally decided to adapt this
Star Wars : Knights of the Old Republic star-ship for
Star Wars Battlefront II,
Vyse...
Moreover, I have to admit that the
current mesh isn't bad at all for a
first one, and I hope you will
never stop revamping it, so as to reflect the "
Graphics Abilities" of
BioWare's
Odyssey Engine...
Thanks again !...

Glad you like it!

The current mesh would make for a great dome but the in game needs more work. The sides are completly wrong, they need to be more outward. The top really isn't that bad but I will be adding more detail. I was trying to get a screen to compare it to the SD but I can't get the thing to show up continously like the Shipped captial ships, so here is a pic from ZE. I will be making it the best it can be without lag.

Lookin' good man. Can't wait to see this finally in-game. It'll open up some great possibilities for some KotOR space maps. Though, you are right; you really need to stretch it a lot more. It should probably be longer than a Star Destroyer... right now it kinda looks a little... chubby. It's all squished. Stretch it out a bit and you'll really have something there.
Keep it up man.

Looks really fun. Can't wait to strafe up and down it. Will be plenty of fun.
At first when I read W.I.P. Leviathan I thought to myself They're making a model of Leviathan? The Person?? But then i remebered this and felt like a tard. Been awhile since I last cranked up KOTOR

no the sith interdictor cruisers were smaller than a ISD, if you notice theyre not much bigger than a rebel assault cruiser in that game and those things are only the size of a corvette, the ravager though was probably as big as a ISD just because it was a sith vessel from the outer regions and what is most likely what palpatine based his ships off of because they resembled the old sith war ships but the leviathan was of rakatan design and really had nothing to do with the true sith empire like nihilus, sion and traya did as well as the ravager.

The Levathian was a huge ship. One of the biggest of its day. I would think it'd be slighly bigger than an Imperial Star Destroyer, if not, larger. Judging by some of the movies and such from KotOR, I'd say the Levathian, in my opinion, dwarves the Star Destroyer. It was big enough to level an entire planet, after all. Though, it's been a while since I've played KotOR, so maybe it's not as large as I remember. But I remember it being pretty Diet Dr. Pepper big.
