damn..those command caps look like star destroyers from star wars!
ship designs are very unique and original.. I love it! /mrgreen.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="mrgreen.gif" />
i hope the base designs are just as good /tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />

The original textures weren't made as one UV mapped tex so it's hard to compare. XWA (the game GT is modelling for) likes models to have lots of seperate, small, textures so each part of the ship is likely a seperate texture of anything up to 256^2 (iirc).madpeople wrote:QUOTE (madpeople @ Oct 23 2006, 09:25 AM) i think it is the textures that really make the models
what res are those textures at? i'm looking at the top of the second close up screen
No idea what resolution the Alleg converted models are at though.
Spidey: Can't think of a reason I'd need to know anything

Unfortunately XWA has certain limits to textures in size and color depth(8bit).
It only allows 2^n pixel counts with n between 3 and 8, so the textures can be 256x256 pixels at max. To have a nice detail to the textures therefore requires quite a lot of them. The max number for textures in XWA is 100.
I already scraped that limit with some of my newer models, e.g. my new Warhammer with somewhat around 95 textures .... /mrgreen.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="mrgreen.gif" />
