Hey just a simple question but do those have working weapons yet? If so, how did you do it? In the mesh editor (the emitter thinggy)?

[quote] 3D Studio max should be more than capable of creating such models Thrawn. [/quote] I can't make anything more complicated than those shapes they already give you. I honestly have no idea how :p

You do realize there is a catch for the free rules and ships? It seems very out of date and its missing ships and has ships that dont have models. PS, What modeling software are you using? I can't make anything like that in 3ds. I think I'm going to download inventor and import those files into 3ds to export them as a .3ds. So if I do get BFG models, I could measure them and make them in inventor!

[quote]2nd set of uv's is for the planet clouds. There are no bump maps on planets in Sins. We used spec maps to fake it instead. Gave better results. Also, it's a diff shader, so the planet DA map is different to.[/quote] Still dont get that lol [quote]to make it 10000 units, make a sphere that size in max or whatever software you are using and match your model to it.[/quote] I get this. I was just using the scale thing in the mesh editor. TO 3DS MAX!

LOL!!!! WHERE'S KIERNYC!!!!! He has a huge Tau army and now hes getting Tau BFG models for Christmas (I myself am getting IN soon). EDIT: Does anybody know if the rule book or the other book has all the ships? The right ships? Looking at the downloadable ones it has models that aren't there and models that are on the store aren't in there! Oh and this sucks for Americans. The store for us only has 2 adaptus machanicus ships (2 cruisers) and the British store has a Battleship!

[quote] Hi there! I was at Gamestop.com the other day and noticed that you can now pre-order Sins. I'm really excited about this game and can't wait for it to come out, but was wondering if there are still plans for a collectors edition. If so, will I be able to pre-order that as well or will that come out a little after the game has been released? [/quote] Yep. So far those who have preordered the

[quote] I think that planets are working because I already covered this. I gave the models two sets of UV all the time, just in case, you know. I thought it might be use for bump maps. I just duplicate the ones from the color texture. [/quote] Whut

[quote] planets use a different shader and requires 2 sets of uv's. The planet has to be about 10000 units big i believe, I don't remember off hand [/quote] 2 sets of what? (and how would I go about getting them?) And how do you view the units in the mesh editor? Thats at ten times the normal size already!

[quote] Just a guess, your model is not centered on the 0,0,0 axis? [/quote] Guess not... you mean in 3dsmax? No lol, I didnt think it mattered. Lemme see if I can center it, I dunno if I can/how. [quote]I took this photo of Mars last night from my garden in UK, you can use it as a texture if you like [/quote] Awesome picture dude! Sadly enough textures need to be more detailed and be able to wrap around the whole sphere.

Bump and I need help. I deleted the other terran's meshinfo lines in the gameinfo file for terranplanethome and terranplanet. Well, the code I did half worked I suppose.
