Honestly bud, with me going into Gunnery, I have absolutely zero time for much in the way of modeling, or anything else. Knock that Fralthi out of the park! The the revisions to the Ralari is just awesome. Brad

I had remembered talking to LOAF about it, but didn't get the finalized version. The initial pitch was awesome though, unfortunately I don't have the pitch anymore.

What? Yeah, that is definately a solid trailer. Seeing the Enterprise under construction is awesome! I'm curious if any of the original cast will do some cameos, that'd be awesome. Brad

So, basically because you don't really *like* wing commander you're out to change it all so that you *will* like wing commander? I mean, to me, if i'm making a fan project (which I am) i'm not really out to change anything, because everything about that universe is awesome. There's no reason to...

Roger, well, I suppose releasing mod tools with Pioneer would work, but...With it not ultimately being the final release. I dunno, like I said, this was based on talks from a couple months ago. Brad

I'm really not sure. Because I do believe Joel was planning on (this was a while ago) marketing his engine. Mod tools aren't completely out of the qeustion, but it'd be rather silly to release them prior to releasing whatever the end goal is. Brad

Because you're all about utilizing others hard work. Instead of just modding what others have done, why not just learn to create your own engine. I apologize to muddy up the thread, but i'm rather annoyed with hearing you constantly begging or requesting in a rather forceful way access to other...

As far as I know modding and the engine being opensource/freeware are no-gos. Obviously the game will be free to everyone (obviously) but the engine will not be. Least thats what I understood from Joel.

Odd indeed. Whenever I model, I always keep a running count of its triangles, especially if its for a game. My usual goal is around 8k tris, depending on what i'm doing. 10k is perfectly reasonable as well now. Gives you some extra room to play with as far as detailing goes. But, more is less in...

which you would double your actual poly count for the purposes of putting it into a game. which puts it around 3000 some odd, which is pretty decent.

generally its the result of the texture not fitting the UV coordinates properly, or the texture not going all the way to the edges of the UV map, causing the edges to be displayed. Brad

This sounds a lot like Wing Commander Universe to me...which ended up being a really neat idea, with about the worst execution in the history of horrible executions. Turned into more of a 'hey, lets take this other sci-fi verses ship and add it too, and oh, what if EVERYONE was able to own the...

I think they are, and that is one sexy piece of awesomeness. Brad

Rog, you did Death, and I forgot. Appreciate the correction so, yup. The Blackgaurd. Brad

Actually, the only ship for the Cats that we really need is the Dorkir or equivalent transport. We've got the Blaggart and Viking (our two annoying little raiders) and then the Dralthi, Jalthi, and Ralari making up our primary 'big fleet' presence here. The Jalthi and Dralthi both along with the...

Well, the dev team is pretty well set as is, however we could use some character concepts though. 3 Views would be good there. The style should be along the lines of Privateer, mixed maybe with some western-esque themes. We were kicking around at one point something kind of along the lines of...

That would be because all the movies were linked to the old 'dump site' address. I've actually lost track of what the current repository address is, but it is here somewhere in the forum. Brad

Shouldn't be to bad, the biggest ship we've got only has about 10,000 triangles or so, and the capital ships (not many) and stations (one in the local area you'll be in) are around abouts 20,000 tris. As far as modding goes...i'm not 100% on where we stand on that. The last time we discussed it...

The site details what all you have to do to get it running. You have to have FreeDo an then also a memory deal for it, which acquiring one isn't exactly legal. There are issues with getting the controls to work for it though, I always had to spend about 20 minutes trying to get it working, so...

My biggest issue with this article and others like it, and this is probably way late, is that here we have a brand new Wing Commander game. The first in many, many years. It was well established from the get go that it is an arcade game, cool, no big deal. So, instead of embracing it for what it...
