Soo, I guess I will change few ships and try to make em look better.
First one is rhino, I just flatted surfaces here coz it didnt look as rhino when they were smooth
Also removed some useless polygons, difference in performance wont be visible with this amount tho I guess.

Gotta find out how to make custom mods yet, instead of overwriting original file.

Jeff requested I do a glowmap for the rhino. Here's v1.

I need the .obj of your model. Just the mtl doesn't do me much good.

Thanks for the glowmap. You know, you can test it out yourself in the game by adding a <glowmap> tag to your ship in the ships.xml. I will have to heavily modify this one to actually use it, but it does look usable.

I would test it ingame but unfortunatley SS2 doesn't have proxy abilities. Which would be awesome, btw. Yesterday I started this and tested it ingame and damn it looked epic. There is even a glow @ the bridge thing on the top which kept tricking my eye and making me think it was 3d while it was not.

As to heavily modifying, are you referring to the glow or the model?

It looks like you didn't export your new Rhino with smoothing groups. Is that intentional? I'm not sure if I like it better or not.

It is intentional, c2 rhino with smoothing was way too round in my opinion.
Without smoothing it looks more like rhino in c1 ;)
You can always make a pool if people like it or not.

Btw how do I make game to read files from mod folder in Content?

I would like if v2 was without the shoddy blurred lines, if they had more defined edges along the rhino it would look great.

Not something I can effect, sadly. The engine blurs all glows. I made my glowmap with lines so that the engine wouldnt blur them too much. Seems Jeff fucked with that. @JeffL the thing on the back isnt a circle, it's a flipping crescent moon. That's directly from the texture too.

I think I like the original with the smoothing groups more, personally.

Post Re: Rhino
depends if you like your spaceships millenium falcon or nubian starship

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millennium_Falcon
http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/J-type_3 ... l_starship

personally I hate smooth ships, the smooth rhino looks like the back end is made of rubber. I will be using the angled modded one.

Slightly off topic, I just clicked your signature.

:shock:

Back on topic: I hate the smooth one as well, going with non-smooth rhino.
