Some of my own model work

I've uploaded some pics into the gallery of a few stations that I built for the game X-Wing Alliance, if any of you remember it (Elpirata), with some background info of what I used to be involved in. It's been years, and the graphics of today's games blow them away, but I'm still proud of what I did with the limited tools we had back then. Those were good times.

Those models were made just before I joined Jumpgate beta and never looked back.

Re: Some my own model work

Heh, where is Jump when you need him? I used to be pretty good at imbedding into web pages, coding and stuff, but that was 7 to 8 years ago...haven't done any of it in a long time...and I'm sure there have been plenty of improvements since then.

Re: Some my own model work

Cool design on the stations. What modeling program did you use to create them?

I made some ships and stations for a couple of different space games I was working on that never really got off the ground. I'd upload pics but they are on my other drive. I'll try to find them and post them if I can

I used Rhinoceros 1.0 to make the .dxf files...and that was a pain.

Re: Some my own model work

Ahh, For a time I was using a beta version of Rhino3D, but not too extensively. It seemed like a really good editor for being free. At least, It was free in it's beta.

Well, I lost the images but I had the models, so I made some screencaps.

None are complete, infact most are nowhere near complete. Also, some are for different games then others, so they really don't have a uniform look... but here they are anyway. =)

Space/Atmospheric Fighter
Small Shuttle
Tau Fighter
Tau Fighter Render
Alpha Station
Epsilon Station
Roid City

In retrospect, I wish I saved them in a smaller res so I could have thumbnails, but I was dumb. =(

Re: Some my own model work

Those are nice designs, Trit. In XWAlliance we had to be careful though. Too many faces would kill the game and cause all sorts of graphic errors.

If you want. I'd have to do some serious searching to find all remaining screens I got.

Re: Some my own model work

As promised, I put up a model I made in class friday night. I'm actually kind of proud of it. (We use 3ds max btw.)
