Sketch up is good for proof of concept, also i'm going be learning how to use 3ds max sometime this year on my college course.

Well, that's why I said "for making game models"... It's just that you'll be waisting your own time by making a model twice...
I guess so... a game that (I think) uses sketchup models is called 'Need for Madness'. it's a java racing game where you either have to finish first or destroy all opponents, a very fun game indeed.
Here's a pic:

LOL, no man. that game is way older than sketchup. The lines are generated through a cel-shader... I used to play that when I was a little boy...
You've just made yourself look really old! i'm 17 in feb!
Well, I'm going to be 19 in the 6th of February... I played that when I was around 8-9, so it wasn't exactly last year... :g
I probably played it at around 10-11 so not that much difference between us. (it's still WAY better than many games on the internet)
Started texturing the ship now, can't decide between blue/black or red/bleck collor scheme, when finnished i'll render it in both so you guys can choose :g
Hey, I have some fictional FX-200 ship profile views that I made. Maybe we can use some of them?

Of course, we would change the names and make them seem like ships built from scraps of the older AG league models..
Amazing looking designs right there man!
The Goteki looks like another design i had in mind to model next actually :P
Anyway the ship is done!!:

Decided to go with blue in the end myself :P
Mind that in the renders i used 2048x2048 textures instead of 1024x1024 but that's only because of the close up, will look fine in-game with 1024 :D
How do you guys want the geometry and diffuse map in the game? then i will export and upload it ;)
Seriously, these designs are friggen awesome, I mean all of them!!!:clap
You guys certainly worked at this and you all should be proud of yourselves!:clap
stevie:)
Yeaaaaah!!! I've rebuilded my Player's Ship Controller Script and A.I's controlling script and I got 60-70% better perfomance so I can run my game on netbook with A.I turned on and with all effects including trees with no lag :hyper
Awesome zero! :clap
And awesome ship dayviewer! That looks wicked cool! Reminds me of the WO Pure Goteki!
Feisar looks gangster! lol, I have to make a Pulse skin like that!
Zero thanks for idea; like 2048, how there is 2048-50 leagues, how about, FX-150 - 250. Giving it an actual campaign mode.
Holy $h!+ Day, it looks like it could EAT a ship, not eliminate it! ;)
P.S. Triakis and Harimau can be used because they got introduced in FX-300 but then...
Yeah, I said we could change the names and make it look like some amateur team just picked up the scraps of old ships to make a new one...
Dayviewer> great work! Some crits though:
The colour scheme is a bit bland due to having just two colours used. Perhaps you should add some details in another colour (personally, I would think white would look good). By details I mean picking out any decals like numbers, sponsors or adding stripes etc.
The rivets are too obvious and draw too much attention to themselves- try to tone them back. If you want to go for subtle panel work reference aircraft photos.
Zero: nice one! Rewriting is always the best way. Do you look back at your old code and go ''what the hell was I doing?'' I certainly do....
And as another update: I've started to think of a way to use linear velocity to calculate collision damage- so if you are travelling at high speed and hit something........crunch!!!! Also, I have a variable speed system working now, so the AI knows when to slow down and when to accelerate.
Yeah, I meant the names... but copyright issues.Quote:

(sorry 4 double post, multi-quoting eats typing space) I just took it in! Alright! First, A max speed team, a.k.a, Pirhana fan ship/s.Quote:

300, quick Vinta k gameplay and creds
last time i saw jese(?) was quite a while ago, i think jese stopped going on this forum a while back...Quote:

and i am designing new ships on paper, again it kept getting close to the pre-existing designs. i got to really stop doing that..... but i cant :cold :frown:
Im not that helpful at this stage apart from designing ships and thats pretty much....
Well its great now that we have addition members on this project, but i recently had an idea... for the music of the game, maybe Unctuous could help us out? *fingers crossed*
