From Malvoisin,
"besides kennethgf and his romulan outpost, no one is currently doin any 3D art (apart from jig's game, see the corresponding (3D) screenshots)."

Malvoisin thinks I am the only one that has done any 3D models. That could be because I am the one that put my humble attempts on Sharepoint. Guess we all need to upload our models to Sharepoint for the devs.

I'd be glad if someone proves me wrong in my current state of belief

so come up guys, show somethin for the rest of us!

PM mstrobel to get signed up at http://www.botf2.com/ I think he will need your email address to send the login.


It is so good to hear from you again. You can look at how I put in the files for Romulan stations but then mstrobel may want to say more about how we are going to organize all these model files.

Hey Welcome back, Trashman! I was getting worried that you hadn't posted recently!

Once you've got your login, upload everything you have. It doesn't matter if some models have UV maps and whatever whilst others dont - just upload then as best you can.

Seeing as each ship/station will likely have multiple files though, it may be best to upload the individual files into separate folders - so one folder for eg. the Akira class, another folder for the Sovereign class, and so on. If you put the files into one big folder, you may end up mixing stuff up and generally confusing everyone!

All the files are going in the shared documents of the main site - don't put it in the shared documents folder of Allegiance, BotE, or Supremacy or the models might get lost!

As an example, the directory structure could be like this:

The Birth of the Federation 2 Consortium -> Shared Documents -> 3D Models -> Romulan -> Stations -> Outpost 1

Or

The Birth of the Federation 2 Consortium > Shared Documents > 3D Models > Romulan > Starships -> Warbird

...And so on.

Oh, and sharepoint does NOT accept .zip files - you can only upload files as-is. Uploading is also easier if you have Office 2007 installed - if you do, you can do multiple uploading of files. You cannot do this with earlier versions of Office!

I have Office 2000 and cannot do multiple uploading.

WEll, so far I manged to uplaod some federation and romulan meshes...

Sharepoint is incredibly slow and unresponsive..havn't managed to uplaod any textures yet... still trying..

well it works perfectly fast and fine with me (german T1). maybe it likes "overseas" traffic more..

Do any of the games need 2d 270x225.png images of minor race ships?

Yes my captain. I can wrap up those Gorn ships later and turn my attention to the Majors for now.

I am gearing down on the audio monolog recordings, doing some real work to support by habits (like eating and putting kids through collage) and then getting back to the ships.

Shields are down to 80 per cent. -- But we were still here last time I checked.
