Spring RTS Engine

Actually thats what I call the Forge World Edition, as its different from both 4th and 3rd ditions, but that also means its the same as whats on the Helios, so you can just copy paste it :D

Mike

Is your whirlwind in the 3rd or 4th Edition style?

EDIT: Actually it turns out the Helio's whirlwind laucher is in a differnt layout, but if you can just get some pics I can use as reference so they look similar that'd be great.

Mike

Doing all 4 will be easy as except for the Prometheus the only difference is weapon loadouts, and even then, the Prometheus' changes are still slight.

Mike

Well then, I want to help what can I model for you?

I think you mean "give a man a fire, and he is warm for a day, teach a man to make a fire and he'll be warm every day"

;D

Mike

Its not that your asking a lot, its that your asking or something so simple, you had might as well learn it so you can not only get exactly what you want, but you can easily change it if you have to.

We're helping you help yourself. ;D

And who would I talk to for this?

I would be willing to help out with modeling and possibly texturing if my skillz improve...

But 56K is full of phail! And so is IE in my opinion.

Plus it makes scrolling faster and more economic.

Here we go, V2 of the Blasthog



What do you guys think?

Mike

How you guys go about doing it? what programs do you use? I've often wondered but never asked.

Mike

Thanks for the comments guys, its good to know I'm on the right track. @ Manored: I plan to texture it with a black strip so it'll look somewhat like this; (as far as the gun angling part) Image Removed for those poor 56K users :D So it'll be able to tilt up just fine. Nice! :P Its great as I save ...

The low polycount wasn't critique really. no worries man, I just find that no matter where I go I always have to explain what I'm doing in detail to atleast one person, so I figured I'd simply do it before it happens! A good texture can do wonders. Yeah thats what I figures, plus it just seems to b...

Well its not perfectly an A-10, but I'll try and make the link more obvious in V2! This might be a bit much for a starter... Don't worry much about that, I may not be familiar with Wings, but I'm taking a 3D Game Animation program, so I ain't new, but I'm always willing to listen to what others have...

Heh, I was hoping it would look more like an A-10...

Guess I'll have to redo it then...

Mike

Well, been fiddling around with Wings3D, and these are the kind of things I've been spawning, not much, but to me they seem okay, they got low poly-counts at least...

Alright, thanks. Its good to know I'm on the right track for this!

Problem Solved.

Mike

So, if I read that right, I can just keep editing the image and it'll update the texture on the model?

Still new at this! :D

Thanks,

Mike
