giving things away

Fri Feb 17, 2006 3:05 pm by Firewing

Hello guys..Long time no see.

I dropped by on these forums to give things to the community.

tehre are some things for Freelancer I worked on, but since most of htem aren't complete, or never will be, I figured it's best to give them away to people who might put them to good use.

I put a rar file ( around 5MB ) that holds those things. It includes:
- a fully working Advanced Heavy Fighter (the Phoenix)
- a fully working super-bomber (Armageddon)
- some weapons and other outfits
- a system (acessable trough a hidden jumpgatein Main Liberty system) with 3 planets, tradelanes, with working bars and traders and the works (only thing missing are the missions...oh and there is one stragne bug I didnt' fix - namely the game chrashing when leaving the planet)
- I allso went on and tried to re-balance everything, so
all shields are rebelanced
- I never got around to balancing all the weapons
- capships got a upgrade - all of them have shields and better weapons

NOTE - I actually allso modified the mission to make htem more interesting and challenging by putting in these things. The mission files are not included in the rar, but if someone wants them, I'll be hapyp to send them.

>>>> MODELDUMP FILES & THE PROJECT FILES CAN BE FOUND HERE <<<<<<

i really like your battleships - the WWII era styling is, imo, the best looking style for spacegames - the stations are also awesome and the fighters would look right at home in wing commander prophecy

Well i dl it all, some nice ships you have there, happily credit you with being the designer if i can use them in our next mod

You don't think I'm giving this away since I don't want people to use it, now do you.
Of course you can use it. Anyone can - the permission has been granted in the first post allready

Oh - to those that want the meshes. If you e-mail me, please specify which meshes and in what format..

Hm... come to think of it, it might be better if I just uploaded the meshes and put a link somewhere..teh question is - in what format would I best put htem then..3ds? cob? mdl?

If you are going to post them on the site, it would be best to put them into a format that FL uses. It would make everything for everyone easy and you can't find a place to host your file if it is over 40 or 60 MB you should try File Factory.

I would pretty much love to use all those models you posted up.

Allright, I'm gonna put the meshes into Milkshape format and upload them to my webspace... I'll organize them into severl categories so it's easier for interested ppl to get what tehy want.

It might take a few days to get them up tough - got a big test coming up.

THat's good news, when you have them up post a link to your site where they are hosted, I really do like a lot of the work you have done. The ones I like the most are the Stations.

No problem...the converter works beautifly, I should have most of the models converted and ready by tomorrow.

Of course, they will be without the turrets and textures - just the main hull meshes. Textures I have suck anyway.

Allso, when I was digging on my HDD i found an old Kusari Battleship concept (dragon shaped) and I exported it too

Sounds perfect.

If you could for a few of us leave in the textures as they are if you don't mind.Becuase the station textures are very nice, along with some of the ships, I like them.
Plus a lot of people don't got programs to make textures.

Giving them turrets aren't a problem for me and shouldn't be for a lot of people, so don't worry.
I love the Archangel.

Have to agree there, the Archangel is wicked!

Well, I can understand why wanting textures is desirable.. I know it ain't easy to find good looking textures and mapping big ships - however you should understand that most of the textures used on those ships are from Freespace2 or some other sources and are really not good when you look at them up close in Freelancer (I should know, I tried).
You're better off finding other textures...

I made 4 zip files - Stations, Strikecraft (fighters, bombers, gunboats), Lightwarships and HvyWarships - containing m3d files.

I will upload them in a few moments and then give you links.
The Macross model (SDF-1) is not in them, if anyone want it I can send him 3-4 version of it (standard cruiser mode, with carriers, soldier mode, dedalus atack pose)
