    The lighting issue can be fixed by turning off the "ship mesh highlight" option ... and it looks so much better!

    Nice. How is texture mapping handled in that game? One texture wrap or multiple files?
  • SteinerXSteinerX Trainee
    [QUOTE]Nice. How is texture mapping handled in that game? One texture wrap or multiple files?[/QUOTE]

    3 files
    .cl file for the detailed tex + team colours
    .da file for reflection/lighting effects
    .nm file for bump (3d effects)

    We have 2-4 modelers, but only 1-2 people texturing ... so we've got:
    10+ EA ship models waiting tex.
    4ish ship models to make for EA

    And then Minbari/Shadows/Vorlons/Narn/Centari/Raiders

    Current ships ingame: Pre- Alpha 0.34a

    Looks great! :)

    Question, couldn't you just drop "-class" behind the ship names?

    Question, couldn't you just drop "-class" behind the ship names?[/QUOTE]

    YES! We can as the below quote agrees-(From Tobiwahn - Mod Leader)

    [QUOTE]Think we can do this. Always liked it, but we would need to redesign the window file to acommodate for the additional length, so perhaps it is better to drop the class.
