I m curious what is the current status of this mod right now? I m not an awesome modder but if help is still being seek I could help with models, tables and setting up the pof files.

Dead in the water.

But we still get awesome badges ;D

[assasing123]

damn thats a shame, converting ALL the HW1 ships to FSO is quite easy actually but i SUCK badly at freeding and i would screw up at any attempt of making a mission

[Colonol Dekker]

Feel free to produce assets, there are enough hyper-fred-capable members on here to generate missions

[assasing123]

In that case i will start pouring out some ship ports today later in about 1 hour and half once i m home, probably will get the R1 heavy cruiser first <3 love those cruisers! and then the R2 Assault frigate. will post them here later for people to try them ( will make them flyable turrets being target controlled )

[pecenipicek]

note, do so without the ships having thousands upon thousands of tiny ass textures, k?

[assasing123]

is 8 textures acceptable for the heavy cruiser? I think I can reduce it to 5 just give me a second to try my hand on 3dmax and see what I can do about those turrets made from 4 objects.

no.

4 textures per model. 1 diffuse, 1 specular, 1 glow, 1 normal, end of discussion. (for hw1, normals are nonexistent anyhow.)

[Colonol Dekker]

Do what you can mate, it's all appreciated

[pecenipicek]

being a bit delayed, 3dmax keeps exporting the model totally messed up instead of the way the objects should be attached. -.- why it cannot be just tile mapped...

any idea why PCS2 might be crashing trying to open a COB file?

because you need to learn how to do things properly. if you are just starting with 3D, grab blender and learn it. 2.5 actually has a interface worth something.

also, PCS2 now supports importing COLLADA 1.4 files.

not starting with 3d modeling, just with 3d max, and trying to learn to use that UV stuff instead of tile mapping.

[assasing123]

fixed my texture and grouping issues everything all fine and dandy except that I m having some issue exporting, basically no textures... suggestions ?

IIRC, you need some sort of DAE exporting plugin for 3Dsmax, since its builtin isnt exactly good. Someone else, who is using 3dsmax will need to chime in here, since i dont know exactly.

[assasing123]

indeed thats the consensus we reached on the IRC channel last night, will download an older version of 3dmax to export it today

There isn't a collada .dae plugin for the version you have?

unfortunately no, this version 2013 has a builtin collada exporter but it seems is not working properly.

To my knowledge, Max has always had its own ".dae," and never has supported Collada by default.
