If I didn't missed any pics, I haven't seen Wingnut's model, so I can't say which one.

Wingnut's meshes are definately not useless. You can't find better reference material from anywhere, not to mention you can fix almost all of them without bigger problems.

then wich one am I thinking of, I thought it was yours that had all the little boxes and the arm like things on the fron rotating section as seperat objects, and I don't mean after convertion, I mean that if you hit the decompose button it will give a lot of objects, if it wasn't yours than what was I smoking? It was obviusly prety good stuf to mess me up that bad, mabe it was wingnut's model, he's always been a multable object nut.

Oops!

(Ian has just downloaded his B5 Alpha 2 archive from his web site and realised it's an unassembled version)

Okay so yeah. You're right. Happy now! . Yeah the version on the net is composed of about 9 million sub-objects. The version I have at home boolean joins from those into three sub-objects. [b]Three[b] I tell-ya! .

Sorry dude.

I'll improve the bits where Wingnut's model is better and slap on some textures while I'm at it.

Two questions:

1.) Is that B5 model up there to scale?

2.) Is there gonna be a major slowdown whenever that thing is on screen?

1) Not sure. It will be.

2) If the Colossus slows down your computer...yes.

The model isnt to scale (its about the size of a sobek class at the moment, length wise)

but i had the whole model on screen without any problems at all.....but i do have a fairly good PC.....i still recommend a 500+ to run the mod, if you want it to look good, however the lower lods are looking rather tasty...so people with lower systems shouldnt worry too much

Saying the B5 project is centered on this station, THIS @^$@%^@ ARGUMENT SHOULD BE CLEARED UP!!!!!
Here is what I propose (everyone stuff your pride and/or Ego's somewhere else for now)
1. Have ALL current B5 modles avalible for testing in FS2
2. Have anyone who wants to Test them sign up somewhere
3. Have people reply about what is good AND bad about each modle
4. Take the best parts for each modle and make the ultmate B5 modle
5. Give creadit to each person for their part(s)

How much slower does the mod currently run than FS2?

It doesn't...not right now. In the end memory requirements might be slightly higher and our models are a little higher in polys so there are going to be some perhaps minor decreases in speed, but it should perform for the most part as it has.

Alex Folker, we've already cleared the argument. Read more carefully. IPAndrews model is it.

so if its not wingnuts model can we see it just to have a look? be interested to see the difference between them

one other thing and dont take this the wrong way - is the fusion reaction on IPAndrews model quite right? i dont know something just doesn't look right - maybe its just becasue its not textured though
