    Fearless

    It's been awhile since I've had the chance to do any WC-themed 3ds Max. So when I came across Howard Day's fantastic Hornet model while digging through some files, I decided it was time to rectify that particular situation. This is the result (warning for any dial-up users: it's a 1440x900...

    WC Carrier question

    Orsini was indeed basically on the front lines by the time Blair got to the Victory, but between the way the war was going for Confed, and Tolwyn's shifting of assets in preparation for bringing in the Behemoth, the Victory had all the reason in the world to be on the front lines. Pre-Battle of...

    3ds max r3,4 compatibility

    However, exporting the file as a .3ds (rather than saving it as a .max file) will allow older versions of Max to open files created or modified in a newer version.

    Kilrathi Taunts

    Capships, upon shooting down your wingman (whether he ejected or not) would often say "Heh heh heh, another dead ape."

    WC2 help- Novaya Kiev Mission 1

    First, get rid of all the fighters. Then, make a pass at the Dorkathi that's sitting near the depot - go in with your mass drivers, swing to the side, and hit it with side and rear turrets as you pass. Should be enough to take the transport (and its flak) out of the picture. Keep the engines...

    What games at E3 are you most excited about?

    The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, and Spore are the main two, for sure.

    The Nephilim in Nexus (Note: Image heavy)

    The Tiamat featured moving limbs - the scene where the first dreadnought jumps through the Kilrah wormhole shows the ship with the arms folded inwards to the approximate width of the wormhole. After the entire ship emerges, the arms spread out to the familar Tiamat shape. The arms being folded...

    WC2 Armaments

    If you need evidence of AMGs shooting at you, go play the "Recover the Courier" mission at the end of Noveya Kiev, and the last mission of SO1. The Ralatha in the first mission is all too willing to turn your Broadsword into so much nothingness when you're coming in to deliver a torp, and I'm...

    Hellcat

    I'm pretty sure you can do fighters with multiple components - IIRC, the Vampire and Panther had their engines as seperate components, due to the need to have them rotate in flight. As for the other two, have you looked Killerwave's site? http://killerwave.solsector.net/Model_Tutorial.htm

    Man of Vision: Multiplayer Added to Prophecy (March 5, 2006)

    Excellent to hear that you're not just going to put it in for the sake of having it. You guys have certainly proven in the past your wisdom and skill when it comes to designing scenarios, and to hear that the same level of dedication will be applied to MP is excellent.

    Man of Vision: Multiplayer Added to Prophecy (March 5, 2006)

    Wow...just wow. As if HCl wasn't already a god amongst men. Is there the possability that this could be adapted to allow multiplayer in UE/Standoff?

    Guess what's in Bridge Commander

    Progress is slow - there's been a bit of work trying to get some more models to fit the same scale (does no good to have a tiny Midway next to a giant Murphy), but the main thing I've been working on is getting the weapons to a) match the locations of the actual guns on the model b) look...

    Anybody else hates the Sabre?

    Although we do know from WC2 that the Epee can carry them - in Tesla A, Angel nearly assigns Blair to take an Epee with a single torp to destroy a Kilrathi listening post, but instead swaps him into flying the morning patrol with Stingray.

    Hawk's Background

    Maniac gets promoted to command of the Black Widows just after Casey & Co. join the Widows. Appropriately enough for Maniac, he was passed out from too much drinking at the time the CAG announced his being in command. Hawk did get a nice shot in with the "To be in command? To be in control? To...

    A green version of the blue paintjob on the Arrow seen in the first Academy epsiode?

    Progression of ships

    A show featuring the TCS Tiger's Claw comes over 10 years after the Tiger's Claw was destroyed? Or are you mistaking the Academy TV show with the Academy game?

    Progression of ships

    Not built by the same faction? There are several design characteristics that are shared straight through the series. We'll stick with WC1-4 for now. Many fighters share the basic look of fuselage/wing/vertical surface (Hornet, Sabre, Hellcat, and Bearcat). Then we have ships that are...

    Progression of ships

    I'm not sure how that could be referred to as "lazy". Real world and in-universe explanations exist to cover each of those points. When you make a new game, you don't just slap a new story on top of everything that pre-exists. You build from it, create new material. In-universe, there is, of...

    an unofficail Broadsword variant?

    That's no Broadsword - it's an A-10 Thunderbolt blueprint with a bit of adaptation (mostly in only using the outer panels of the wings instead of the full span) and the addition of some torpedoes roughly where the torps were in the movie.
