I just tested the models and noticed a problem: The wide enginepositions of the fighter and the int results on gigantic particle clouds when boosting. A chaser will have his whole screen covered by a white cloud, not being able to see the ship.
Aside from that I really like the models. Great work, keep it up!
TF facelift goes beta
! Though SF reminds me of a NOD stealth tank lmao. 
At least the lights are dependent on scaling: A small model will have huge lights if its scaled up by the core, while a large model will have tiny lights if its scaled down by the core. It may be the same with boost trails.l1ngus wrote:QUOTE (l1ngus @ Jan 15 2010, 05:03 PM) I just tested the models and noticed a problem: The wide enginepositions of the fighter and the int results on gigantic particle clouds when boosting.

+1 to rama, i don't really know about the scaling for particles, i am sorry. To manage the size i just imported the current model and did a comparison directly in the modelling program, so i was sure not to touch the core scaling.
Keep it up guys, any info can be useful for testing. To the big DMing names out there, please give it a try too. The feedback about the feel of the ships in battle is very important to polish them up: are the models too easy to hit from the front? are they too wide? If we can make something about the particles we will i think, but to answer one of the questions, yes the current TF int has the same problem: i kept the original smoke joints and scaling so the actual behaviour of the booster trails should be exactly as they were on the int.
