Models need to be released under the GPL. You can't just scrounge up some models and use them like that.

Thanks for the offer, but as BTAxis already said it's a requirement that art contributions to the project are 'free' [1].
Unfortunately most (sold) 3Dmodel/art-CDs do have restrictions on them that control the distribution of the art. So we cannot redistribute the game freely if the art used in it isn't free.

If you happen to be a 3d-modeller yourself we would love to get you into the team.

[1] I believe art under the GPL, Creative-Commons 2.5 attribution and Public Domain are fine to be included in the game. Everything else needs to be checked.[2]
[2] I think we could make something like this available in a sticky thread in the "modeling" forum.

hi,

we need more models we can put into the maps - like cars, trucks, trees and so on.

we need more ufos and dropships (have a look at the existing ones)

In general i would also say you have a look at the existing models, but here's what i know from some of the existing models:

Texture sizes
Weapons/cars/big trees 256x256px (some even are 64x256)
small plants/ammo: 64x64px

Polyons
cars: ~300-550tris
big weapons: 200-300tris
ammo: ~100tris

I have no clue about modelling, but have you read about it on our wiki? (BTW, read TODO page, section Models, as well. :) )

We need modellers badly, so you and your friend are very wellcome.
