Well I just spent a good 5 hours of my day tinkering with the shareware trial of 3DX MAX 7 and I can't say I got far.

Re: Which Shipsets Should Be Convereted to 3-D???

As far as I can tell most of the stock races that I wanted to see a return of are in. I really hope that the EEE don't change to much, I like their current incarnation very much.

Re: Which Shipsets Should Be Convereted to 3-D???

Alot of ship sets with the numerous portrusions and holes and such would require major reworking I am sure. But there are many ship sets that for the most part are solid

Re: Which Shipsets Should Be Convereted to 3D?

Re: Which Shipsets Should Be Convereted to 3-D???

Wow, I can see why you find this project to be daunting, alot of your sets would require a crazy number of polygons to reproduce faithfully.

Is polygon count a game restriction, or simply a...

Re: Which Shipsets Should Be Convereted to 3-D???

Yeah, That is what I figured, which is why I am curious as to what the most popular ones are.

Which Shipsets Should Be Convereted to 3-D???

Being that 3-D rendering makes creating shipsets a little more difficult, what old ship sets would you like to have priotiry as far as conversions?

I can't live without the Federal Union and the...

3-D looks

So,

I was thinking that a good thing to have in the game would be a way model your own ships. Go ahead and have a base shipset, but then add a few dozen generic 3-D "legos" that you can add onto...

Re: Realtime or turnbased tactical combat?

Homeworld!

Was just playing that ealier today actually.

Any way Malfador can buy the rights to that came and simply cut and paste its game engine in as SEVI's tactical combat component?...

Re: SE5, Tell Aaron what\'s on your Wish List

Considering the curresnt state and proboble future state of SE AI, anything that makes the game more dificult is better. And of course not having resources is the point, that means you would have to...

Re: SE5, Tell Aaron what\'s on your Wish List

Re: SE5, Tell Aaron what\'s on your Wish List

Re: SE5, Tell Aaron what\'s on your Wish List

Re: SE5, Tell Aaron what\'s on your Wish List

I would like to see CivIII style resources. We would still have setup we have now for general use, but the Civ type resouces would be for the more exotic stuff. Would add another layer of stategy.

I am not really sure what you guys are talking about, I find fighters to be an unbalancing element in the game. Even in the latter stages they can more than deal with conventional vessels. The...

Re: SE5, Tell Aaron what\'s on your Wish List

Allow all stellar objects to be colonized, and then include the ability to colonize each class of stellar objects as separate racial traits.
