Tankerace -> RE: 3D concept (11/21/2004 12:21:36 AM)

If I may make a suggestion, I'd hold all your 3D art until you get the whole thing done, because it might put some people off having some ships 3D and some not. Just what I would do, but its your call. Looks great though.




CobraAus -> RE: 3D concept (11/21/2004 12:42:03 AM)

this project will take weeks and I'am after comment and sugestions as I go. its a lot of work and to have to re-work all out put if I wait till all finished would double the effort its up to the players to try - leave in game if they like them or try them and take out and put in a waiting pool of ships to use after all completed.

thanks for input

Just trying to offer suggestions.... doing a lot of graphics is a pain in the ***. Its rewarding, but can also lead to high blood rpessure [:D]

Ron Saueracker -> RE: 3D concept (11/21/2004 8:23:56 AM)

Maybe it's just me but I've always liked the 2D "profile" approach for games like this. Seems less toy like. Nice effort though.[8D]




Tankerace -> RE: 3D concept (11/21/2004 8:31:03 AM)

You aren't alone Ron. All my graphics will still be in 2D, simply because they seem (to me) more appropriate to this genre, and you can squeeze in more details. But, different people different tastes, no?

I love them. Keep them coming.

I love these grafs, but Akagi has a portside island, Kaga's is to starboard; your Junyo is steaming in reverse.....

Buck Beach -> RE: 3D concept (11/23/2004 1:42:19 PM)

I served on the Cimarron (AO-22) in late 1963. Was there also a Tanker class?


BTW as a side note, yesterday (November 22) I left her for the last time in Long Beach to be sent back to San Diego to be muster out of the Navy. I was in the Greyhound bus depot waiting for departure when the news of President Kennedy was piped over the loud speaker. On the trip we heard he had died. There are some things you never forget.


Opps, just read where she was laid down as a Tanker Hull in 1939 and later commissioned as a fleet oiler. She did have a rich history. She was along with the group that launch the Doolittle raid on Japan. The most striking thing I remember from 1963 is that at the time she was the oldest continous active ship in the fleet and was cockroach infested.

Tankerace -> RE: 3D concept (11/26/2004 11:31:06 PM)

Just to help out, but I'd reexamine your Salmon/Sargo class pic. I don't ahve a good line drawing handy, but the conning tower is cited to far to the rear. Also, it looks like the con is cited below the main deck. With the exception of an early (1933) Style conning tower, her silouhette should be similar to other US fleet boats.




testarossa -> RE: 3D concept (11/26/2004 11:38:59 PM)

I don't know but muzzle flashes on some ships look out of the picture. IMHO.




Tankerace -> RE: 3D concept (11/26/2004 11:44:14 PM)

Hey Cobra, are you actually drawing these graphics, or are you basing them off those 1:1250 scale model ships from that site you PMed me about? I ask because your Chacalot graphic is the same color and perspective as the photo of the Chacalot model on that site.

Also, after viewing these graphics, if I may make another suggestion, if you are going to model the submarines full hull (As you seem to be on some of them), then I wouldn't have a wake below them. You'd only need a wake if it was a waterline graphic.

Keep up the good work.




CobraAus -> RE: 3D concept (11/27/2004 7:02:24 AM)

the answer to your question is yes for some but I sent a fair bit of time searching other
modeling sites for variation and ships I dont have yet
Igave the sub wake a lot of thought and decided to use one but a lot smaller tha surface ships as the subs props would to me have some wash even under water taking a torp shot or surface action
Testarosa can you indicate which ship has muzzel flash out of position ( was it a Japanese
ship as I am not playing as Japanese trying to get someone who is to test Japanese ships for and report findings)
