The geometry looks wonderful from these angles, Adonis. Can't wait to have her ingame

Also good to see that you have the prototype detailing down. Accuracy was a concern of mine

Satin-white grace

Looks beautiful Adonis! Can't wait to eventually fly her around.

Looks real good, man. Nice to see her "white" as opposed to the dingy gray that's typically used for Fed models.

So far, it's good.

While I do like the ST6 version better overall (because of the minor details that differ from the first version and the drastically-changed interiors), I really like your take on the first Excelsior (of the three you're doing so far). I'm most caught by the first of the two WIP pics on June 19. If altered only very slightly, it looks very sleek and even more futuristic... And for some reason, I'm reminded of the Nintendo Wii. I guess it's because of how clean the WIP looks, especially under a white background.

Fantastic work there. Looking forward to downloading her for the game

Anything new, Adonis?

I'd still like my hands on these 'celsiors....

This is another great ship that we're never going to get, isn't it?

I hopped over to WickedZombie's forums a while ago and noticed he saw the little stint that took place....

Basically what he said was that the texture size, not the polygon count, which causes lag in computers.

So I'd assume that no trimming of the poly count is necessary. As long as the textures are ginormous, it should still be a beautiful ship to play. 'Sides, as WZ says... Adonis created the model. It's his choice weather or not to bow to certain restrictions that others think are necessary.

hmm no not when it comes to the poly limit of the game, as it stands its over the red line for all SFC games, hence why outalance needs to do the poly reduction

The NX Excel is 10.7k that's below the red line, the NCC will be simmilar in PC too. About the lakota...that remains to be seen. I really cannot give an estimate.

Good Luck and I know that you will do the best that you can and that is all we can ask of you. interesting Revalation about texture sizes

Keep up the great work
