forgot that was an option even! my bad! love those option in the upgrades. ds

why?

you would have to go into every entity file and alter the buildtime line. good luck! ds

Ezraeil, waiting with baited breath! which reminds me what is baited breath? it sounds like a guy that takes fishing too seriously and keeps his worms in his mouth to keep them warm.... (gag) keep up the good work sir! ds

well I didnt get any crashes or anything, works perfect for me! I just watched the exelsior blow up and it was awesome. the class 2 probe or whatever it is wouldn't go through the phase lane though it just headed out for places unknown. still love the work though! ds

Im playing with something like that... the spawn siege ability and spawn missile platform abilities. If I could texture I would already have those done.

I can vouch for his miranda model its wicked! no texture but wicked. j/k ds

ok so I dug out my galactica model and its ugly so befor I try a texture on it Im fixing it. maybe later tonight Ill have it textured? ds

hmm posts not working? ok they work again whew!

oh boy!!! just played a few moments enough to try out your new ships and sounds and debris and and and... you rock! but! can you just double their scale size? I realize it may entail some extra work but that capital ship is puny in size, unless the rest just get bigger but for me if they were all about 2x bigger it would be the only thing I can see that needs work... other than getting rid of that ridiculously huge borg cube for a colonization ship l

If you post the mesh and image files we could look at it better and see what its like in game? I looks ok in the pics but maybe a little under detailed? no offense I cant even get a texture to export correctly myself so my hats off to you!

Ezraeil, Love your work and hope to get some of my own out some day soon. I think you have startrek handled so if we can get me up to speed I can do some BSG models for folks or maybe Romulans or Borg since you have the Feds cornered! thanks for the great stuff your ships rock! ds

CanadaMan... I always export via 3.6 anything else does not work. ZJBDragon... I gave you unblemished files I becaus I did not think you wanted to see my sad excuse for texturing I can try what I think should work and post it. In fact I will do that but I will drag out my version of Galactica and rar it after I texture it. it will probably take me a little while but I will have it in an hour or two. and thanks much! ds

if you look at this thread youll see some info near the bottom of my massive huge post I know if you follow it you will get a good mesh. but you have to do it as i wrote it. if you dont just give up. https://forums.sinsofasolarempire.com/311258 ds

for anyone thqat might be interested go to the link ZJBDragon posted, I think I have that fixed now... maybe. :d ds

they already do dont they? at least they do in mod of the latest ship pack EzraeilBeatus posted in here. if they dont make you happy just mod it like i did to make me happy. :CONGRAT: ds

I actually have these ships in game and playable as TEC capital ships ans its been fun balancing them and getting the weapons to work but I've run into some hard coded limits weapons wise so they aren't as done as I want them. I have modded a missile to work as a torpedo but i need one more weapon slot to use it grrr. the only reason they aren't black in game is because I cheated and used 3 materials each a different color and applied them after I had them in mesh format, slop

ok here is my little line up of startrek ships, probably not at all close to anything real but what do you expect when im not really a trekkie? the files for xsi in rar format. [link="http://www.solsticewebgraphics.com/sins/my_st_capships.rar"]WWW Link[/link] and some glamor shots!

you were right I did need to remove the extra material you had in there to do this correctly!!!! Im not sure why cuse I don't know what it was but it wont import through convertxsi like it was. I will now package up some of my models and let you see if I'm doing something really obvious wrong in my work! cuse sometimes I'm dumb.

I know I'm being really simplistic but I'm writing this for not only you but anyone else that may be having problems. ok here we go... first I'm going to show you where I have everything necessary on my pc It may be something as simple as that. my xsi modtool is installed at... C:\Softimage\XSI_6_Mod_Tool when I tried to import your xsi file off my desktop It wouldnt find the file so I had to place it inside the installed directory which for me was...

I'm redoing file and not altering it at all right now other than scale and axis and will post it momentarily along with a huge long tutorial as to what i did. and I'll post Links to all of my woebegone skinless models if you want to use them or skin any one of them it might help me figure out how to do it properly. ds

Well it took a lot less time for me to do this than expected... here is the link to the files I rar'ed them... [link="http://www.solsticewebgraphics.com/sins/miranda_mkii.rar"]WWW Link[/link] I will write down exactly what I did and how after I finish this post it will take longer to write than do! as for what I use its all xsi mod tool nothing else. btw while I was doing this I noticed your ship was 90 deg off on its axis so I shifted it, you would h

while I'm looking at your files what program are you using to create these files? I can export all day long hard points and all but I have texturing problems. ill get back with you in about an hour its almost 3pm here so around four i might have a solution for yea. ds

1. the ability to use more than 3 weapon types per ship might be nice even one or two additional would very handy. 2. the ability to debug something properly. ( specific errors ) 3. GUIs are nice but really not necessary, I agree totally. 4. and least importantly I'm sure for most of the good modders but would be nice for noobs like me would be a demonstration of someone actually using the "xsi modtool" to create from top to bottom a ship nothing fancy

awesome! new ship pack coming out soon? ;p ;p
