Hey meph its me <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> well anyway , i use this basic rule for scaling ships. 1) import a ship as big is you want your model to be. 2) scale down your ship so it is as big as the imported ship. 3) delete the imported ship and scale your ship up to 40 - 50 times (i tough it was somewhere near this value last time checked)

what if you set the lod ranges to 0

that might work , like the transports , they have a special mount called HpCargo01. you can these hardpoints internal make items and mount them onto it , of course it takes allot of scripting

hey i didnt saw that in the tutorials forum , well i shal have a look

yeh , after a closer look i found out that it still had a old scanner declared , fixed now

my French is limited , why?

like i said , VERY HANDY TOOL. i think this might come in handy for me <img src=smilies/icon_smile_tongue.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

verry handy tool , but my method is a quick and easy , and it also presses the mod sise since you dont have to ad new .CMP files

in the SHIPARCH.ini add this line to your battleship shield_link = l_fighter_shield01, HpMount, HpCloak01 hp_type = hp_fighter_shield_generator, HpCloak01 this should do it , since all ships have an extra HP with them (can only mount light fighter shields tough , but if you are a bit convenient you can let it mount all shields you want <img src=smilies/icon_smile_wink.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> )

most wont work , been trying to have 2 powerplants mounted at the same time and didn´t worked out like it should have worked. as for the engine boost , you can not have 2 engines without having a weird engine kill effect

i don´t know how to post pictures but here is a link , hell i don´t even know how to post a ling with these closed brackets don´t showing up. oh well , here is the link http://img38.imageshack.us/my.…8&amp;image=corvette2.png it is a rogue corvette class , slow , good armor and allot of firepower. no thrusters tough but it has a shield. (think of it as between the very heavy fighters and the gunboats) it has only 600 polys , don´t use mesh smooth and if i want it smoother , i do it by hand

i like to blend in ships with the rest of the game ships like this rogue corvette class i made, still need some finishing touches tough (see the link) http://img15.imageshack.us/my.…;image=roguecorvette1.jpg this is only 1 of the ships i will be making for the ANSCC mod, after the mod release i will probaly publish them in a ship pack for more feedback on the mod , visit the forums at http://www.anscc.com Edited by - Heavy B on 6/13/2004 11:26:29 AM

yes , i can experiment with it so that FL thinks the hull are shield

yeah Ive heard about it , Jay asked me to do the models <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> (since i have HW2 this would only be converting i guess)

did i said acceleration ? i meant maneuverability <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

well, i can adjust the AI of the NPC so it is better adjusted for the aceleration

can you make hull modifiers? imagine you have different kind of armor classes , and you want the gun to do more hull damage 1 kind of armor then to the other kind

dunno , have a look in the interface folder

well drawing in an isometric perspective isn´t to much trouble <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

yes , i tought it was all explained in a tutorial
