Title: Assistance Please!!!
Post by: Raventree on August 01, 2004, 09:07:02 pm
Ladies and Gentlemen,

Per advice from Chris Jones, I'm asking if anyone here  can help me with the following problem..I'm looking for a SFC2  model of the following ship...
(http://149.142.139.138/Web/LE/LEret.JPG)
This ship was designed for AMT by Matt Jefferies of TOS fame... I do have a Lightwave model for it and permission from the Artist to modify it or have it modified...
But, I don't have the program or the skills to have it done successfully...
Can any of you assist me... Darkdrone was specifically mentioned by Chris..


I'll be cryin in my beer until then....

I'm willing to help out here as well.. I'd love to see another Jeffries design hit the scene.  And if it's Lightwave (or .COB) I should be able to convert 'er over to .MOD as well..

Just saw all this...F_W, I'll get that sent to you. As for the size limit, as far as I know you should be able to recieve up to 8mb...I wonder if the security program on the server thinks it'sgot a virus...that's happened to me before. I'll chk into it...

Have the mesh itself converted over today, but the texture mapping didn't come across.  So am retrying the conversion with another format in the morning to see if I can carry over the texture mapping as well.

Bump ;D

mesh     = converted and oriented
mapping = converted

progress = 85% complete.. attempting to see which materials are missing from the mesh as there are areas on the mesh itself that were obviously textured at some point.. but I can't find the corresponding textures in the archive.

Check the WIP forum for the thread I'm about to post.. someone has to break that forum in I guess.. :)
