I like the look of it, it has an element of dangerousness, but unfortunately there's a few problems.

1) It can't have guns of its own, only hardpoints where the UFO:AI guns can be mounted.
2) Why does it have 4 wings? It looks nice, but they'd make the whole thing very unstable. I would suggest making the bottom wings larger and firmer and moving them forward to become main wings, so the top two can become tailplanes like on the F-22 Raptor or be completely eliminated.
3) It needs a more aerodynamic shape if we want to pass it off as a heavy hypersonic fighter. Imagine a really advanced version of the F-22 Raptor.

I hope that conveyed what I mean. Let me know if there are any difficulties or if you'd rather just drop the model.

Regards,
Winter

No problem, if you want an heavy hypersonic fighter, i make an new model, that is faster then adapt this one.

 :wink:


Edit :




I make an new one, maybe this is better ( 360 poly's non rectangle).
If you like more detail, of course then you get more poly's.
But I can add a lot of detail with the texture.

sitters, please tell me how we should contribute you in CONTRIBUTORS file - name and surname or nick only?

Sitters is OK.

I have one question.
The models I make have some times transparent parts in the skin, can the engine handle MD2 models with an .png skin ?

I use transparency for plants and trees.

Willem

Edit :

I dont know if you like this kind of aircraft ( 273 poly's no triangles ), so yes then I skin it.




and an car,

Great. Thank you Willem.

I did have some spare time so I make it already.

Here is the link :

http://www.md2.sitters-electronics.nl/models/MD2_models.zip

Look what you can use, They are so low poly as possible, because for the game I make them, is losing fast FPS with higher poly models.


I make some new higher poly models with more detail.

again thanks for this offer - a link with gpl license included would be very nice.

if you want to make some new models - we need some more static map models. cars, trucks, caterpillars, trees and plants (no brush models, but real volume models) and everthing else that is imageable to put into a map

best regards
martin

OK I make the package in the weekend, and start with some new models.

hi and welcome to our forms,

thanks for your offer to contribute models - we could really use them - and btw. they look really nice.

the problem is, that our project is completly opensourced. so you have to chose a license which we should use to release them. e.g. the gpl, or the creative commons artist licenses.

both are compatible.

again thanks for your offer - i would really like to use some of your models - if you agree to the license. of course you will be listed in the contributors list.

best regards
martin

No problem, I make an distribution package and include an GPL licence.
All models are in md2 format with an skin, look what you can use.
When the package is ready, I give you an link.

If you have any problems with other models, converting them to md2, I can also do that ( low poly ).

And if you like some new models, or special things, let me know.
I like to make models for an hobby.

Hi,

New to this forum, I have get an Email from Tempsanity, and he ask for using my models for this game.
He also ask me if I can help making some models.

No problem you can use what you like and or modify the stuff.

I model and map for fun as an hobby, so If you need models, I will make them for you.

You can see some work from me on my website.

Don't look to much about my grammar, this is not my first language.  :shock:
