Saron2of4 Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 Does Anyone have a model of this ship? If not, can someone make one I would appreciate all replies and help. Been playing Rebellion since it came out and still play it often and have modded the game (with new character,troop,etc cards ) and have included the Neomodians(Gunray) as characters. Thought it be neat to have a ship to use for the Empire and/or Rebellion. "The attack on me by the Jedi has left me physically deformed.

Mad78 Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 You mean thos big U shaped ships?I can pull one of those together for you this afternoon but you will have to wait a bit for the teaxtured version? http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Palpycard.gifhttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Spamkinguserbarcopy.jpgCLICK HERE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!Click here is you like Trance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saron2of4 Posted June 10, 2005 Author Share Posted June 10, 2005 Hey if you can make one I will be most humble unto you. And yes the ships the Trade Federation used in Episodes 1,2 and 3. Droid control/Battleship. I can wait for a textured model not a problem. What size as far as ship comparision are you going to make it? In ROTS Episode 3 it was just about the size of the Venator Star Destroyer.Which I would imagine is about the same size as the Victory or Imperial Star Destroyer. I think I also saw a post where you said you are making a Venator Star Destroyer if so cool. Anyway enough ranting I need to go join the masses of millions snooozing away.

Saron2of4 Posted June 11, 2005 Author Share Posted June 11, 2005 Evaders99 posted"Something you want to use in Rebellion?"Â Yes yes...I would love to see this ship in battle in Rebellion.I like the multi role this ship plays. Like Battleship,Toop Carier, and Fighter Carrier as well as Droid Control which obviously cannot be used but is neat never the less. Anyway do you have a model or planned model of this ship? Mad 78 said he would try one. I'll wait to hear back from him, in the meantime do you have ideas/suggestions , if so, hey let me know, always glad to hear good ideas and if ya have a model hey ya can't ever have enough models ."Do or do not for their is no try"Yoda Hey I know the quotes are cheesy but hey I Love Star Wars.

Mad78 Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 Okay, update on the ship. Finally found time to get down to it.Here are a few pics to give you an idea of how far it is completed. i would say around 65-70%. Tell me what you think.http://img276.echo.cx/img276/4017/tradefederationbattleshipworki.th.jpghttp://img276.echo.cx/img276/9026/tradefederationbattleshipworki1.th.jpg http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Palpycard.gifhttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Spamkinguserbarcopy.jpgCLICK HERE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!Click here is you like Trance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eko Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 *whistles* Thats damn good. What program are you using? (I would ask how you did that but it'd probably take too long to explain it to me) I've just remembered i've got a signature! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad78 Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 I use 3ds max but you could easily do the same thing in the free gmax(you just couldn't add that cool Nebula back ground )Well actually the model is quite an easy one Its just long to make due to lack of decent reference pics.If you want to make your own i suggest you:1) Download Gmax or get 3ds max.2) read Mask's Tutorials do get a bit of a grip of the interface3) contact me by MSN and i shall guide you the rest of the way (or who knows you might not need guiding)Â I am quite happy because the model is nearly fninshed and that the actual poly count is of only 1100 http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Palpycard.gifhttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Spamkinguserbarcopy.jpgCLICK HERE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!Click here is you like Trance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saron2of4 Posted June 13, 2005 Author Share Posted June 13, 2005 Hey that is awesome ! Can't wait to see the full textured version . Do you know how long it'll take? Cause I'm sure I'm not the only that agrees that it deserves a place in Star Wars Rebellion . "The attack on me by the Jedi has left me physically deformed.

Mad78 Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 Well it will take some time since i am decided to really make this one look good . But for the moment i must sleep (you see it is 00:11 over here and i feel i will not accomplish much more tonight).

Darth-Griffin Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 Dont forget that we will need a Card to go with the model!! http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/2350/darth1b3bu.jpgVisit the forums > The Galactic Core Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad78 Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 I am sure the SWR card database already has a few http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Palpycard.gifhttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Spamkinguserbarcopy.jpgCLICK HERE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!Click here is you like Trance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krytos Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 Very nice Mad! I'm surprised at the poly count being so low considering some of the curved faces you've got. Most impressive indeed http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1778/reloadedbannerdu8.gifhttp://img152.imageshack.us/img152/1333/3dartistbanneranimationws1.gifhttp://img154.imageshack.us/img154/4026/rebellionbannerdi2.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_mask Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 You have done well, my young apprentice  But adding the nebula works the same way, as in max (ALT-B) http://img147.imageshack.us/img147/5183/animated9pn.gifhttp://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1778/reloadedbannerdu8.gifhttp://www.swrebellion.com/images/banners/rebellionbanner02or6.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grand_Admiral_Thrawn Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 Great work Mad, it will look even better once you get some sort of texture onto it. My question is, is there a poly limit in Rebellion that might prebent it from being used? And yes, there are quite a few Trade Federation Battleships in the card database. History is on the move, Captain. Those who cannot keep up with it will be left behind, to watch from a distance. And those who stand in our way will not watch at all.

My question is, is there a poly limit in Rebellion that might prebent it from being used? Good question with a valid point . I not sure what the answer is, but I would imagine someone's made a model for the game with a poly count close to the one as this one. I haven't used all the models available for the game, but I'm sure it will work. Only trial and error(testing it in Rebellion) will tell.

Krytos Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 There doesn't appear to be any limit supllied by the engine. That being said there are noticable slow downs with higher poly models in greater numbers - though I've only noticed that in high numbers, and with high poly models (over 3k polys, and a fleet of over a hundred ships). Keeping the model around 2 - 3k polys is probably the best idea for the game to keep it running smoothly at all times, assuming your fleets aren't huge. Preferably, for real optimisation, is to create three models for each ship - as Rebellion supports a LOD. Which would almost garantee the game to run well with very large fleets if the "far" models were very low poly.But that takes longer again to get one ship out and makes the file bigger http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1778/reloadedbannerdu8.gifhttp://img152.imageshack.us/img152/1333/3dartistbanneranimationws1.gifhttp://img154.imageshack.us/img154/4026/rebellionbannerdi2.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_mask Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 Back in the beginning, our former lead modeller Gank suggested a maximum of 10k polys for each model in Reloaded. I don't think we have a lot, that even reach 5k, though  Btw, the one ship I released, that seemed to give most people trouble was the first version of the Home One, with over 55000 polygons http://img147.imageshack.us/img147/5183/animated9pn.gifhttp://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1778/reloadedbannerdu8.gifhttp://www.swrebellion.com/images/banners/rebellionbanner02or6.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad78 Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 55000...How many does the new version have? http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Palpycard.gifhttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Spamkinguserbarcopy.jpgCLICK HERE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!Click here is you like Trance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_mask Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 JM's XWA version, that I later found only has 7000. Â That's surely an improvment http://img147.imageshack.us/img147/5183/animated9pn.gifhttp://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1778/reloadedbannerdu8.gifhttp://www.swrebellion.com/images/banners/rebellionbanner02or6.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
