[quote who="derbal213" reply="1470" id="2512480"]Hey guys. Remember me? Just wanted to pop in and say 'hey.' The mod is coming along great! I knew you guys could manage without me. I've been pretty busy with school and such, but I'm finally re-downloading SOASE, hoping to have a renewed interest in the game. So, anyway, glad to see everything is going great. And glad to see the SOASE community still going strong. Keep up the good work, SI, team.[/quote] good to see you

Hello to everyone, At this time, I have decided that releasing a beta would probably be the safest bet to keep interest alive for Stargate Invasion. So with this new change of heart and opening the mod for beta release, we will be looking for anywhere between 10-15 beta testers to give us feedback on how the mod plays, what could use a change with and what is perfect the way it is. Now, each beta testers application will be processed by the entire team,

[quote who="Major Stress" reply="211" id="2505879"] As far as models themselves i think you guys got that covered judging from Eomegas work. Where the hell have you been all this time BTW? didnt you have a trek mod of your own at one point in time here? We could have used that modeling talant years ago. I have a cardassian orbital weapon platform, Danube, and Nova model if you need it. I just havent had any time to convert/Re-UVmap them yet. [/quote] <

[quote who="Major Stress" reply="189" id="2502823"]Looks good. Whats the poly count?[/quote] The poly count is just over 9,000 right now. I was going off the fact that in the model files it says Card_Starbase, so I was going off information provided by JTaylorpcs. He said that Starbases could be up to 10,000 so that being the case, I set that as my limit. [quote who="Major Stress" reply="189" id="2502823"]Nor station is a Cardassian station.

Thanks major, that means alot. Being that Jtaylorpcs is helping out with SGI, I am lending a hand with models for SoA2. Here is another I have done, its a rebuild of the Terok Nor model in the model files that I recieved. Just some 'minor' updates to it. Tell me what you all think.

hello all, I just wanted to say that we are working hard, and to show it I have a new ship for the Asuran Fleet. Here is the Figaro Class holoship. The original model was built by RJB and this low poly rebuild was done by me. Here are two shots of the ship, the first being an orthos and the second a size comparison.

[quote who="ManSh00ter" reply="13" id="2471589"]Well, you can always treat this as a high-poly model, then bake the normal map onto a low poly model, that's how it's usually done unless you use a sculpting solution. That way you get rid of all the excess polygons and minute detail geometry AND you don't get to spend two years UV mapping every little quad on the high-poly version. And the look remains pretty much the same. P.S. Not sure what adding holes in piers has to do with bump

[quote who="Carbon016" reply="9" id="2469037"]whoa have you ever heard of bumpmaps[/quote] [quote who="ManSh00ter" reply="11" id="2471487"]Have fun UV-mapping the last one. Good model, I like the details. Some of those could have been done with the bump-mapping instead of actual geometry though. Keeps the poly count down.[/quote] Yes I have head of bumpmapping, and what Im doing is adding in the holes in the piers to show the access to the center open area under the control t

[quote who="Myles" reply="1438" id="2468579"] Those are what I was talking about. The ship in 'First Strike' fired the same weapons. They're is no real name for them unless you want to get technical and call them 'directed energy weapons', but I like energy blobs better. They fire from the cannons on the side of Aurora class ships and have been shown on other types as well. And I would agree, smaller version of those is good for fighters.[/quote] I belie

[quote who="TheRezonator" reply="1432" id="2466200"] interesting, i would have thought the jumper would be the fighter, the model above would be the bomber... its just looks meaner than the jumper. i also thought the model looks better upside down than right way up... idn, just my opinion, but its all good[/quote] Jumpers are bombers because they will be using Drones, while this fighter is going to have lasers.

[quote who="kris159" reply="1430" id="2464740"]Nice. I thought you might use a jumper or something. Reminds me a bit of Battlestar Galactica. Which one is the right way up, btw?[/quote] The Jumpers are going to be bombers, this ship is the fighter for the Asurans. The one in the back has the nose facing us and is the top.

hmm, Im not sure, but I think that his version is for Entrenchment, as I see it... where it says: MeshNameInfo meshName "Frigate_304_Human_Tech" criteriaType "None" change that to just meshName "Frigate_304_Human_Tech" or whatever you renamed the mesh file too. If its still the stock name, then change it to frigate_techheavy

ok everyone, I have a bit of an update for you all. Firstly, thanks to JTAYLORPCS, we have been able to get most of the coding for the Humans done, which is awesome. I have been helping him clean up our mod folders, and in doing so we are saving space on the total mod size. Anyhow, with his help the first part of the mod has just jumped to 25% complete, thankfully that means that I can focus on the Meshes and texture files that need to get done so that we ca
