Description
Modeled by our creative director, Julian Vinet.
Still Work In Progress.
Hope you guys like it. Keep in mind this is a not at all the final version, as the final model will be around 20k polygons. These are the FAQ concerning the way we design our ships:
Q: Why do you design ships with a such amount of polygons ?
A: Our shader and OpenGL improvements have improved the game, allowing us to add more details to our ships without reducing the performance. On the other hand, the upcoming remastered edition is along the same lines, because this version will be powered by a newer release of OpenGL... And that means, you could expect a lot more performance with it. So we believe designing more detailed ships (like we did for the Odyssey, Destiny or Wraith ships), is definitely how we have to work, because the final result will be better (same performance, improved visuals, more realistic ships).
Q: When do you think this ship will be finished ? (texture included)
A: Our lead designer plans to work on this ship during this week-end, and I believe you'll be able to see the final version in less than 2 weeks. Not sure. Hopefully you'll receive updates.
I love this ship... A shame the atlantis expedition wasn't able to keep the Orion lol
It would've been too big an advantage.
What progrma does the team use to model and texture
Autodesk 3DS Max (models), UV Decompiler (texture maker) & Adobe Photoshop (texture designer). That being said some designers of our team are using other programs, such as Blender or Lightvawe.
