G.F.: Model works fine and performs okay ingame.

 

[frostwhisper]

Eeeh... that skin is pathetic.
Otherwise I love the model.

 

[syc]

please feel free to retexture . I have no issue with anyone working on these models, just give Coxxon and myself credit (coxxon the creator, myself the importer and refiner).

The texture went from 2048x2048 to 256x256 (warcraft standard). I was not sure if I could use a larger texture, and it would have probably taken up much more memory and space in the map files.

Alright! Its great that you've made these.

 

[NinjaDino]

skin should be more whiter, and model more detailed(really lot of details so it could be cinematic)
but its great model for wc3, now we can do some battles like in movie

 

[syc]

well everyone asked me to make this as small as possible, so it does not bloat the map it is put into. I can try to release my origional texture which is twice as detailed but twice as big. ill see if that works.

 

[syc]

Well due to demand the new texture is 1024x1024 and is 1 meg, but due to its larger size it looks great. "Ready for my close up"

 

[frostwhisper]

The texture looks awesome now.

 

[Lord_Sauron]

Could you change the stand animation? I don't think a large ship like Galactica should be rocking about as it floats. Otherwise it looks incredible.

 

[Simon559]

It's cool. But change skin..

 

[varsaigen]

love it! 10/10

P.S. Is there a base model that it works best with? Just wondering.

Edit:
Ok. got it to work. For the textures, you have to leave the "Textures/" out of it. Hope this helps everyone.

 

[Dark Hunter1357]

Wonderfull ! I will use it as a colony ship, i just dont like the file size, you shoud make a model whit low detailed texture and preserve this one for shinematics, as detail may be needed then. And its good for cinematics, because its hollow and you can add doodads inside it.

EDIT:I needed icons of the model so i made same, if sameone wants them i attached them. Note: They are screenshots and many people can probably make them.

 

[varsaigen]

I don't like how it sways. The only way the swaying would be good is if it were a mission where it was floating on the ocean. Otherwise..... yeah.

I like your icons Dark Hunter. But I think it looks like an engine or hangerbay. Just my opinion.

 

[MGCǂSpectre]

I was wondering if someone will make a Battlestar Galactica from all then spaceships made, and looks like it has been made before I even thought of it. The texture needs imporvement but generally color improvement, to make thigns more metallic, otherwise the lines and name I think are ok. Nice 4/5 for the skin,

Also use real lamps or other particle instead of bloodlust.. so not suitable.

Okay, firstly, its swaying because this is a space ship. >_< It couldn't possible even enter the atmosphere of a planet; look at what happened in season 3 when that happened! xD

Secondly, it technically is a hanger bay. Its basically just an aircraft carrier for space. =p

 

[Grievous1]

fantastic spaceship model very usefull for my project nice work man! 5,5/5!!!

 

[Goldentiger]

wow 12969 polys :O:O

 

[skrab]

wow 12969 polys :O:O

unbelievable but truth
the worst...it got approved

 

[Dark Hunter1357]

If he makes the texture size smaller, it would be good.

 

[Anti_Bodies]

wait in the update you added 1mb to it? so now its 1,350 kb? and before it was only 350 kb? am i getting this right?

 

[syc]

well i uploaded that texture over a month ago because of everyone complaning about the texture. If people want I can upload the smaller texture to the skins section.

And to those who just comment on the size or polys... It was 49,000+ polys before i reduced it. And it runs fine in maps with 5 or 6 in a battle with other units. Tested on a 1.6ghz P4 laptop.

 

[Anti_Bodies]

ah i see. i sort of remember u talking about the massive origional poly count on that BSG model forum topic. well anyways, thanks for working on the model.

 

[Segento]

awsome i can find a use for this

 

[Raiden_X]

Ill use this in my "Planitary Combat" map 5/5

 

[Raiden_X]

Awsome Model! Keep up teh good work!

 

[Dark Hunter1357]

Yes making a new texture in the skin section will be nice (i don't understand why people complained about the texture, now maybe its better, but whit this size !)

 

[Hades7.ger]

Yes that Space Ship is really Awesome! !

 

[Lord_Sauron]

unbelievable but truth
the worst...it got approved

While it is a huge model, chances are most maps won't have many of these fighting each other (at least thats the case for mine).

 

[Dark Hunter1357]

I don't think it looks like a fighting vessel, more like transport or colony ship.

 

[Anti_Bodies]

yeah this looks more like a transport, since we dont really see any weapons on it. except in the bsg tv show the guns arrant really visible anyways..

 

[Supermj]

Very nice! Reminds me of the vager mother ship in homeworld.

 

[Rektis]

The filesize is damned huge!

 

[sunwarrior25]

kewl, a huge spaceship! too bad the camera cuts it off at certain angles

EDIT: nvm, It doesn't. anyway. 4/5

 

[gothicvampire72]

pretty great model and frostwhisper if you think its so bad but can you do any better

 

[Reaper51]

Nice Model, and very useful!

 

[LordPerenolde II]

Interesting.....very interesting

This looks almost like a Calamari Cruiser. i love it

 

[Joccaren]

Nice Model. If the filesize was a bit smaller it would be perfect but oh well. This is going to be one of the capital ships in my new map, and its role will be the same as the BSG's is in the TV series and game (Love BSG) : A huge carrier ship with a ton of guns.
Great going. I can only hope that with this file size my map will still fit on B.net, I'm using a lot of imported files.

 

[nedio95]

I got problems with using the model.
I import the .mdx file and the .txt file, than i delete the war3imported/ in front of the text file, save the map and re-open it.
It sayes that it could not open the .mdl file when i place the unit. Am I doing smthing whrong ??

 

[Hero_Lief]

Txt file? You don't have to import a txt file.

 

[nedio95]

I received help here http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/modeling-animation-276/problem-these-models-191172/index2.html
The other models i use work with the .txt file.

 

[xDeathKnightx]

Great futuristic model

 

[Lightt]

Syc you can work in the models of the ships of the BATTLESTAR GALACTICA ONLINE? i need of the models for the map im creating...

 

[Anti_Bodies]

Lightt this map was made like 3+ years ago. This also isn't the place to make requests. And I don't think he will anyway. Sorry.

 

[Melvic]

Wow! You can see the inside of the ship when u see it closer
