Description

So this is my first ever model and skin. I was never particularly happy with the T-Wing models (or the canon design) for Empire at War so decided to have a crack at coming up with my own. As you can see it's fairly heavily inspired by the E-Wing model from the Fate of the Galaxy mod for Freespace 2. The file just contains the model and the 2 skin files. There are 4 hardpoints (2 laser, 2 proton torpedo). Feel free to leave any feedback or use in your own mods - just be sure to give credit where it's due. I'm not 100% satisfied with how it turned out but given that it's been my first attempt at a model from scratch I think it's decent enough.

You'd need to be familiar with editing the XML files. If I have a chance over the next week or two I'll try and get a v1.1 up with the bits you need and the instructions. Just don't have a huge amount of time right now.

If you want to give it a shot yourself though try this link:
Moddb.com

You can copy the A-Wing bits from the SPACEUNITSFIGHTERS and SQUADRONS files as a base for the T-Wing.
