I have recently come to the conclusion that my trial version of MS3D is not going to last long enough to finish the mod. Therefore, I am calling a no-holds-barred contest for new ships/stations for this mod. The rules are as follows:
1. The ship/station must be a kitbash of either the stock ships/stations, SFC ships/stations, Bridge Commander ships/stations, or some combination thereof. (The version of SFC, Armada or Bridge Commander does not matter.) 2. All the textures must match (more or less) 3. It must have alpha channels. 4. A hardpoint map or list must be attached, so as to permit me to write the .odfs. Images are preferred over lists. 5. Strobe lights are a requirement, and emitters (plasma and steam) are a bonus. 6. I have need of the following ships: [INDENT] -1 destroyer - 2 cruisers, one of which is the artillery ship - 1 assault ship - 1 colony ship - 1 science ship - 1 level 2 battleship (along the lines of Negh'Var, Sovereign, etc.) - 1 super ship
[/INDENT]I have need of the following stations:
[INDENT]- sensor platform - pulse turret - mining station - torpedo turret - basic research station - advanced research station - advanced shipyard - super station - orbital processing station - trading station - upgrade station [/INDENT]Perhaps you could get a free trial of 3D Studio Max?

[/INDENT]Be warned, joke entries will not be tolerated, and all submissions should include 2 parts: the .sod, and any necessary textures. All entries should be attached to this thread, rather than the main site. Also, I might take a stab at some of these ships/stations too, so your model might be rejected in favour of mine, but if I judge yours to be better, that's the one I will use.
Sorry about the double post, but I forgot a few things.
Oh, one more thing: does anyone know how to make .bat files? I want to make it easy for people to install without overwriting previous mods. I will contact you when we need it (as in, when we have assembled all necessary mod components.)
MilesT;4474391Perhaps you could get a free trial of 3D Studio Max?
I explored that option several weeks ago hoping I would get a substitute for my non-functional milkshape, for some reason somebody disabled the 30 day free trial.....:bawl:..
I know that not everyone has the cash to to outright purchase any program. Might I suggest however that if your serious about modding that you do actually buy a licence for Milkshape. Save your proverbial pennies if you have to, the program is not that expensive after all. The Armada community is still going to be here even if it takes you a little while to pull the cash together. Good luck with your mod. Rod
