|
|
I like the idea of the Eneron Shipset in SEIV and would like to put it in my SEV Empires.
The Race pic is there and I could make a flag set for it.
The problem is after that I am lost on what to do to make it SEV compliant. Is it doable without pulling my hair out.
And no I have not been able to talk to the Author so will put any credit I can find in a readme txt.

You cannot use a SEIV shipset in SE5 unless you have source 3d models, and can convert them to the Direct3d .x format..
Smarter than your average Texrak.

Yea; I figured that out the hard way.
I am trying to make one from scratch.
My problem is making a 3d rendering of the obj I create. The Mental Mill I DL says errorso looking for a free program to make a 3d rendering.

Daz Studio is free, and you can import .objs into it and create renders from that. Thats what I use for my 3D renders (I'm not very good with 3D Max's renderer and I think Daz produces servicable results without the huge amound of CPU time.)
This is a render I did for a Freespace2 Mod i'm working on
It works really nicely if you take the time to learn the finer points of lighting.

Or an SE5 version of the SE4 Xiati 
That's no space station - it's a spreadsheet!
