If you're talking about the WC2 intro, you probably mean this thing

Just use the mouse to rotate it any way you want, but I'd suggest getting qvp and pof construction suite for your task. It may not have all the fancy ingame shaders, but it shows weapon placement and firearcs.

This Fralthra apparently belongs to clan Kiranka now. Currently i'm still using the original WC2 colours, i'm thinking about lowering saturation a little.

Hmm 40 fighters might fit to what you're facing in WC2 (and the Fralthra is the largest Kilrathi capship there), but this would mean the 612m Fralthra is basically hollow. EDIT: It isn't even that farfetched. You could even put 40 of the larger Jalkehi in a Fralthi if you stack them, although...

Hehe sorry, should have been more specific. I meant the fighter just beneath the supposed hangar bay. If it is, then that cruiser should be a little larger than a Fralthra.

I regretted it the moment i started, but i scaled the Fralthra and the Origin Jalkehi to their known sizes to see how the hangar would work out. Surprisingly well it seems, although the "light complement of fighters" can't be much more than a squadron. Is that fighter on the FM towns cover a...

Normally i'm one of the first to enter the fray when it comes to nitpicking the hell out of something, but isn't this simply a case of different artists' depictions of something?

Well, the original Origin model in the 3D archive is damaged at the back, but it doesn't have any visible hangar at the front. Most fan-depictions saw the rear black hole as the flightdeck.

First things first: This is Cybot078's model, and you can find his other designs here: https://www.wcnews.com/chatzone/threads/k-rathi-fictions.23927/ I said myself texturing them might ruin the simple beauty they have, but here i am doing one anyway. I'm not very good at UV mapping *or*...

I asked him for permission, still waiting for an answer. But he doesn't visit wcnews too often i reckon. I know you already have all your ships and chose a different style, but if you're interested (and Saga/Scooby allow it) i've also recoloured some of the capships Scooby did. Although Klav's...

There's no author in the model comments, does anyone know who to contact for the Ferret, Rapier and Sabre?

What's the Saga artist's policy on reusing/altering their stuff? I know the Standoff people don't want their textures being used, and i don't want to step on anyone's toes. I've recoloured the Saga Rapier so it has its WC2 colour theme. It isn't really a major edit, just a recolour, but it *is*...

Hehe was almost about to place another order. Until i read about this mysterious pancake, think i'll wait a little while longer.

Good to see Freespace actually *does* support coloured specular maps. I wasn't sure if it did, because all the other spec maps i've seen are black and white. Which is a shame, you can create very nice effects just by putting some colour in them. I didn't mean adding lights to the textures...

I've also thought about adding more windows without changing every UV map. I don't know much about the Freespace engine, but how about adding a few dozen flat, glowing rectangles all over the ships? As seperate meshes i mean. They'd add net to nothing to the polycount and can be easily placed...

Hmm could this be coded anywhere else? I only edited the .inf and it didn't work, but if it isn't in a file i can edit with a text editor i'm screwed.

Very nice, i like that idea. I've ripped almost every model from every Wing Commander mod there is out there just to look at the ships, with permission from the authors i could provide a huge load of meshes in an instant, in whatever format you want. As for a flash licence, i'd prefer a free...

Here it is, tell me if you find it too dirty or gritty. I've also included alternate textures for the Fralthi.

I understand you already have some great texturers, and i don't know how much re-editing already took place since the demo. But looking at the files i saw many shipmodels still use the Saga Prologue textures, so i had the look at the Full Release Saga Kilrathi textures and tried to achieve a...

Hehe, ooooookay. Using the takedown /cacls commands i made the PPortJoy.infs (i have two) editable and changed %Joystick%= Joystick.Inst, PPJoyBus\VID_DEAD&PID_BEEF to %Joystick%= Joystick.Inst, PPJoyBus\VID_000&PID_BEEF and everything else with VID_DEAD for that...
