WIP [Map] Starship

[MagSul]

Are you going to replace some textures, it looks a little base jka-ish?

You're not the first to have brought up using the Base textures! Personally, I don't have any gripes with the bulk of them. But I know that there're far better ones out there and not everybody likes them. When I'm done, I'll likely start nit-picking and replace a fair portion of the textures, as well as fix the lighting, which is constantly changing at the moment whilst I work on it. I find it far easier to build and then find a texture rather than vice versa.

[Botdra]

Very nice man. My only criticisms are that the railing on the staircase looks a little bit too 2013 for me, and that perhaps you could go with more verts on the doors to make those circular entryways smoother.

If anyone happens to know of a decent chair model I could utilise in the cockpit, that'd be awesome!

 

any ref pics on the idea of what the chair should look like?

 

i just whipped this up real quick

Actually, something along those lines would be superb!

Make this one:

 

 

 

[ChalklYne]

whats your pathname so i can get this thing to an md3? like.. is it models/map_objects/custom/chair1.md3?

[ChalklYne]

 

Make this one:

 

 

 

ill make that next. i just spoke with ashura and told him iid prolly do like 5 or 6 decent chairs cuz i see posts all the time and maps that all have the same chairs, or need new ones. so cool right on ill do that one next. hey i got that chair modelled, uv mapped, and got the islands all seperated and grouped together nicly... but i rilly dont wanna texture it right now, so if yer in a rush, i can send u the md3, and uvmap (i got it 2048 right now just for turds n giggles) so either u texture it, or gimme a while. ill still need that path tho

models/map_objects/mag_starship/cockpit_chair.md3 ? 

 

If you are taking a swing at the actual seats from the screenshots Milamber posted, I'm very happy to wait for those as an alternative, as they're  the original source I'm loosely basing everything else on.

[ChalklYne]

sure ill do a few chairs no worries.

 

 

 

 

 

 

ill make your path just like u posted

but the pk3 full of chairs ill release i think ill set the paths to map_objects/custom

 

im at about 40% of the uvmap for the new chair

[ChalklYne]

it could prolly use a decent reskin but heres what i got so far

 

 

 

some ingames

 

its a bit thin in these ingame pics because i just copied an existing model and changed the directory in radiant, and forgot to reset the scaling my blunder. its a bit wider more like the pics above the ingame but im sure u get the idea

feel free to do whatever with it. no credits needed

it doesnt have any shaders or a very decent texture but is an easy fix

[MagSul]

I'm liking it. Thanks muchly! I may or may not at a later date play with the texture and/or add a shader as well as adjust the dimensions a bit further in Radiant. Thanks again!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[ChalklYne]

hey use this one instead my bad

better textures better uvmap assignment just overall better.

theres a small shader for it too feel free to whatever. but yeah yer better off with this1

This map looks very nice! I would love to use it for a JKA movie if it is finished soon.

[CaptainCrazy]

Ahhh reminds me of mapping for the Source Engine *sighs in remembrance of years gone by* The principle is the same lol.

 

Makes me want to start mapping for this now but i want to concentrate on making models for it for now xD

It's not finished! I'm just unsure as to when I'll be able to get around to completing it in full. So in the mean time, there it is! Any thoughts 'nd opinions would be greatly appreciated. Any bugs or what-not, let me know and I'll fix 'em asap!

[ChalklYne]

Sweet! Did you ever get a shader going for that chair?

[MagSul]

It's not bein' used in this version, but it's somethin' I'll replace. Added a bit more diversity amongst the chairs, actually. I didn't want the same one runnin' through 'nd through.

[Onysfx]

Map looks quite juicy! Downloading now...

[Circa]

Looks great!

 

@MagSul, when did you get demoted??

[MagSul]

Thanks, I appreciate it!

 

Also, I resigned some time ago.

[Circa]

I guess I miss it...sorry.

[ZanderNao]

This map is amazing! I love the atmosphere, it really is perfect. Your skills are impressive. Thank you for sharing.

[CaptainCrazy]

I can say that the title of this thread alone grabbed my attention.  It would be an awesome map for RP purposes

[Drakan]

Sweet map, I love the old republic, any chance you could get a proper escape pod working which ejects you to your death?
