thanks for reanimating this thread. I have something with dreadnoughts to complaing about. If the shell hits directly it mostly just explodes, not dealing any load of thermo damage. Just a tiny explosion ... if the projectile is fired slightly aside, proximity explosion deals much more (thermo) dam...

In using mods and creating mods, I keep receiving the same error messages: cannot parse; content expected on line; and closing tag does not match opening tag. What is a tag, and how in the worlds do I correct these errors? Help me out guys (or ladies since we do not really know who is behind the us...

Speaking of 3D stuffs, what camera and lighting settings should I use for ships for rendering them to be used in transcendence? ... To position the camera and the lights, imagine that the object is at the origin: The camera is 6 units away and 12 units above the object. The light source is 3 units ...

picked up bryce.. currently learning it. I am curious (because I can't find any information on it).. is there a way (hot key/key command) to get bryce to show the models in solids, rather than wire frame (other than rendering it)? You supposedly have to be using OpenGL video drivers; but my directX...

Blender would a good app. It can do everything that you need in one app; except maybe you might find painting textures easier with a 2d editor. It is free, and has quite a few free sophisticated GI renderers that integrate well with it, if you find it's default scanline renderer to be inadequate.: ...

Truespace - link to Caligari homepage Bryce 5.5 - don't leave home without it. Bryce has a very nice DTE (Deep Texture Editor) and comes with quite a few presets. Like 25 or 30 types of noises that can be blended in various ways to make a huge variety of textures. Wings 3d - quick, easy poly sub-d ...

I'm a hoarder.
I get over 1 million every game.

Thanks for starting this thread up. A Friend of Foe? There was talk a while back about a mercenary guild, http://neurohack.com/transcendence/forums/viewtopic.php?t=246 , something like that could go either way, i think. There was some pretty good ideas in that thread... I always thought that mercena...

And it would be easier if there was a dedicated thread.

...What are the advantages of using Wings 3d? It is a small app, polygon modeling only, meaning that there isn't much to learn with it. It has a pretty simplistic (programmable) hot key arrangement that is quick and easy to memorize. It has some very handy tools for quick polygon modeling too. It h...

You guys go ahead and start a new thread, if you come up with any ideas for a complete sovereign; so we don't hijack this thread from it's intended purpose.

I use 3ds max for my modelling/rendering... I use Max too; still use Max 8, I haven't felt comfortable w/ upgrading, especially since the app has apparently been split up into at least 2 specialty areas. Render w/ mentalray. Sometimes I find it easier (and quicker) to make .obj meshes w/ Wings3d to...

Hello!
What modeler(s) / renderers are you using?

Gnome is an AD&D character race. Similar to dwarves in many respects but w/ several fundamental differences.
