hello groupies. I'm looking for a volentier to make help me with me map, the USS Athena. Now, I'm good with the mapping part, but what I reallt need right now is some models, such as chairs, objects, ect. Here are some pics of my work on the Athena.

Ah, I can see why you were getting that max_patch_planes error.. looks like all your corridors and a lot of other details are just made out of patches (and it looks good too). What I would do is model them in GTK and convert them to .ase like I was talking about in that other thread. In fact, thats what I did to add in some of the details in the nx-01 mod since our main modeller (Neo Sunaru) was no-longer easily available (used it for the chairs, some consols, etc). And it turned out pretty well. But then again maybe you don't want to bother with all of that..

Acctually, only my curved corridors were patch_meshes. And the error was on a different map I'm working on on the side, lol. But yea, this map does use a good number of meshes, jsut not as large as the Inner Docking ring of a Starbase, like on the other map.

As a last resort I'd do the trick with converting them to .ase, but I'd prefer to have models made in some sort of modeling program.

Heya Dooley

Did you manage to talk to Phenix?  
I'd be more than happy to make more map models if 2 separate maps could benefit from them (Considering Phenix told me the Poseidon is now becoming an official mod map. )

Just gotta wade thru exams first....

Hey Para, is there a shader keyword to make my ase models solid?

Those corridors are nice.:)

Not that I know of..

Just set the model to spawnflags 2 in Radiant.

ROFL, uh yeah, I guess so lol.

Jack Amzadi joined a few days bak and I got a request from him to make a full-size danube-class runabout model.  

Well, holidays start in 3 days, so I'll have plenty of time then.
