General Question Galaxy Development

[The Shadow]

yes, i could only see the back side of it in orbiter

 

[MJR]

Want me to send you the mesh.

 

[The Shadow]

yes please

 

[MJR]

Let me put the mainbody on though. Then I will.

 

[The Shadow]

ok, thank you

just a little side thing for future reference

where would i propose like an actual project? because i am only good at meshes currently, so where would i ask if anybody would make the module and code it? would that be the addon requests board?

 

[MJR]

Nowhere. Usually you have to do it for yourself. On the contrary since I am not doing anything I can do it for you. I have a tutorial on orbit hangar on this. I updated it yesterday too.

 

[The Shadow]

i was just thinking like the XR fleet and AMSO were teams of people working together. and like i said, i'm just asking for future reference.

and i'll look for your tutorial.

and again, thanks for your help so far

 

[MJR]

I got the textures good. I am editing the config. file. BTW, your ship is beyond enormous. Do you want me to scale it down a bit?

 

[The Shadow]

my idea was to have it be enormous but if it's a killer on fps then i don't mind, i didn't actually scale it relative to anything, all i wanted really was an XR-5 to get inside that internal bay easily. and from what i've seen on my tinkering with it is that the internal bay is at least 5 miles long(the length of the runway at ksc i think) so it is a little large

 

[MJR]

Alright. Almost done with the config.

 

[MJR]

Here is it. You have to edit the EX_MAIN points to put the thrust under the rocket though. I can't do everything for you. It will help you learn.

 

[The Shadow]

ok, thank you.

Open Galaxy with Anim8or go on edit than select all than on build and ungroup.
Now select each group individualy and go on edit and flip normal.This will reverse back and front faces.Do same for each group.

 

[liber]

Check this...

 

[The Shadow]

well i tested the final product by MJR and found that parts of the mesh ar correct(front hab section) the rest is still inverted(you can really only tell when looking around the ship and moving the camera) and it needs a slight amount more texturing work(my fault) but somehow you made the front correct MJR, and i think i'm figuring all this out so i'll continue work on it. thanks for the help guys

 

[MJR]

No problem. When you are done with it PM me and well talk about the publishing part.

 

[The Shadow]

it looks great liber, it's right side out and everything. you just selected each component individually and flipped normals?

and i'll do it MJR. thanks for all the help

Yes...I think I miss one part...you have anim8tor file added into zip...check sphere part inside rocket...need to be corrected.
Rocket is ready for export,use a plugin for anim8tor to convert into mesh.

 

[MJR]

I think the reason why he got the back part and I didn't is because I selected the fron mesh whole not separate. How are you with the configuration file?

 

[The Shadow]

i noticed that sphere. i thought it was funny that i could see all the way through like that.

vinka's is fairly simple, give me few days and i'll have it all ready. i get two weeks off school to work on it.

by the way, about how large do you think i should make this thing? i want to dock at least two XR5s to each of the support structures inside(total of 8 XR5s) and maybe support for a few DGs or Shuttle As at the front
