Sure... I need all the help I can get.

There's just one problem, I have just learned how to mod and I don't think I can be of much help until I master trueSpace 3.2 or POF-CS.

It's all yours...

(Anyone knows of a site with images of the ships I spoke of earlier?)

What do you think needs to be done first.
Weapons could be done later in the process..... If you can make some of the meshes I can convert them in to POF. Ummm, Textures may be a... No what we can use the freespace textues. The Vasudan and Shivan textures could be used for Gu'auld ships. Some of the terran textures could be used for the Asgurd and ... well terrans. We can make alternet ships of Gu'auld design for the To'kra. Well what do you think. You can mesh and texture, I can convert and do weapons. We can split making Ani files.... the game also allows AVI files. Mission design can alternate. I have a great campaign involving the Prometheus and A Gu'auld Attack Cruiser. I can also do some of the meshing.

To be honest I think you'd be better off doing a search for stargate models and then asking the creators nicely if you can use them or at least use their textures (most models will probably be too high poly for you to use).

I did a quick search and found an Asgard ship [URL=http://www.stargate3d.com/index_e.php?page=gatemeshes&lala=-%3E%20Downloads%20-%3E%203D%20Meshes%20-%3E%20StarGate]here[/URL] to get you started Even better it's in .cob format

I like the idea of using the Prometheus as the base for a mod (in fact I suggested it earlier ) so I'll be right behind you on this one.

Unfortunately I don't have the free time I'd need to join your team but I'm willing to help as much as I can with any questions posted here.

Thanks for the advices Karajorma.

First, we need to focus on what we are going to do, meaning, we need to know what ships we're going to mod, texture, convert, etc...

Then we need to find some sort of models we can work from.

After that, we need to do the modding itself...

Only after the first 2 objectives are finished, can we start to focus on the 3rd.

For now, let's start searching for some models so that we can have a better understanding of what we're going to mod...
Let's start with the most famous ships... the Goaul'd mothership and the death glider!

After that, we'll start to focus on other ships.

I have some pictures of several ships. how sould I send them to you Ghostavo.? I think the death glider will be easy to mod. The real challange will be the ... ... which snake head mothership are we going to do first? Anyway the really big challange will be Allied ships, Asgurd and terran. Maybe we should find some way to get files and the like to one another.

Posted by Ghostavo on 05-11-2003 11:24 PM:

What's their size?
If you got links, please post them here.

If they're less than 4Mb could you send them through e-mail?
Ghostavo2003@yahoo.com.br

If none of these options are available, we'll need to think of another way to get the images through...

P.S.
I have just found this site...
http://www.stargate3d.fsnet.co.uk/Showcase.htm
Maybe there's something usefull here.

Yes! SG-1 mod for FS2 Go for it!

I'm gonna get some Death Glider pics now and try to model it myself . It almost certainly wont work out and will end up looking crappy, but hey, I'm allowed to ignore my limitations aren't I?

Oh yeah, don't forget that Goa'uld ring shaped ship designed to be able to fit through the Gate.

That was (acording to the show) an older version of the death glider!!!

I did see that site before I found the one with the asgard ship. The models look like they are too high poly to work in FS2 (but I could be wrong) but you my be able to use their textures on a lower poly model.

That said BW might manage to make you something nice.

Posted by jc4jc on 05-13-2003 01:56 AM:

textures

I think the textures from FS2 can be used. The vasudan textures for the Hatshepsut class destroyer on the Hat'ak and Cheops class attack ships. We can use some of the terran textures for the death glider.

P.S. I have made a basic looking death glider. I is not the best and will need a great deal of work, but is is a start. I plan on makind a mach up of the Hat'ak(how do pronouce that anyway ).

Posted by jc4jc on 05-15-2003 03:21 AM:

Hey, how are you doing with the search. I have several pictures that could help us. I have at least one picture for each ship- I think. The stargate3D site you found could be used as a base line. I have tryed to make at least the Hat'ak class attack ship, and the death glider. I have already started on improvements to the death gilder(started with a new wing concept) which, in reality, stinks. Anyway, on the Hat'ak is nothing more than a puny set of boxes and a triangle..... ok it stinks too. I think I am going to focus on the death glider before I try with the Hat'ak. That way I can just add fins and the casings for missiles, this is so we don't have problems with external missiles being on the ship even after the missile is fired, to the death glider and presto we have the X-301. I think this missile case idea is nice because we can make it into a hiding spot for the missiles, this way we can snike attack the enemy they won't know who we are for until they can get an up close look at us. That way I can start on the priamid for all the goa'uld capital ships. Anyway I thought I would gie you an update on my progress. Ghostavo if you what picts of what I have so far e-mail my. everyone else will have to wait.

Mod title

I would like to start puting our TC's name on my sighnature, so every one will know about it. What should we call the mod. Any ideas out there. Anyone can make a suggestion. Here is some I like.

-Stargate: SG-1 Earth's Defence.
-Stargate: SG-1 Promethus.

Posted by Ghostavo on 05-15-2003 05:27 PM:

wow... your going to fast for me.
I think the first is the best of the two.

I'm going to try to make a mothership...

I liked that one best, so I'm guessing thats what we are using or do you have another Idea. Which Mothership I may have a starting point for you. I am going to try and do the glider after I finish some other stuff.

Posted by Ghostavo on 05-15-2003 08:21 PM:

I'm making a Cheops class Mothership, but I can't make that ring thing around the pyrimid structure... I don't have any clear screenshots. It's all blurry through out the web...
