Discussion Mesh making with Blender

[gattispilot]

While Fast_toche is busy working on the Akira and Saber, I'm thinking you should start working on the Defiant or Nova, as those two show up quite a bit in my STPSP scenarios. The Galaxy and Nebula (Refit) also feature heavily in said scenarios, although it's probably the Sovereign (namely the Enterprise-E) that appears in them the most.

Oh. I might take a break and work on some of my own projects. These are taking a lot of computer space. But I followed @Fast_toche advice. I used blender to get them and export to 3ds or obj and then edit them.

So, do you think you could find some time to work on any of the vessels I mentioned in my earlier post?

This is the quick Nova. I guess I do not understand what program was to used to generate the finished image.

I'm assuming it was rendered using 3D Studio Max.

Here is the Nova.

Unfortunately, the Nova mesh has a few issues at the moment. Namely, there are some gaps in the saucer section:



Also, I looked up the schematics and it turns out I got the vessel's size wrong. It's actually 180 meters long. (I'm assuming I must have confused it with the Defiant, which is actually 120 meters long.)

Wow. Since I can rescale. I wonder about what color impulse engines should be?

Can you send the cfg/ini and scn

So weird. In default graphics the upper hull is not seen but in d3d9 it is good. In the model all sides are correct. The upper hull is just not seen from any angle
