HW2 Models...

[EH_AceTFL]

More recuests?

[Fishstick]

Not sure in how good the HW2 models would come out, but I'd LOVE to see a HW2 Hiigaran bomber or interceptor. Failing that, the Kushan Assault frigate will do

[EH_AceTFL]

I will unfold HW2 model-s (i dont like red color..) when i get HW2 winbig ...

[EH_AceTFL]

Kushan Standart fregate.. NO ENGINE TEXTURE DETECTED ERROR........ Someone know where is engines texture?

[Nerath]

Requests? Yeah, I have some for anyone who's taking them
Somtaaw Dreadnought
Turanic Ion Array Frigate (if the arrays aren't too hard for anyone to do)
Naggarok
Beast MS
Bentusi Tradeship

[Fishstick]

Ooh yea. Ion array frigs looked great. Wouldn't mind the missle corvette either if we're doing turanics .

[EH_AceTFL]

ok. 1 problem:
Naggarok
Beast MS
Bentusi Tradeship

Those vessals cant be maded.. or can but im sure you will not like to fold them.. :hide: Other recuest proccessing...

[EH_AceTFL]

PS- why [.img] tag dont work?

Edit2- Its late and i need to sleep, there is Turranic Ion array (model ONLY, junk later)

Goodnight all

[EH_AceTFL]

ok. There is somtaaw dred (unfold only yet).

Download: www.republika.pl/ehacetfl/Somtaawdred.jpg

Ok, now notes why i cant unfold those ships:

beast CS
Somtaaw CS (NOT including Faal-Curum vessal)
Nagarok
Bentusi TrandeSHIP

First two have fatal error - they are in few .peo files, so, i cant unfold them and be sure that they are in correct size. Other two have tooooooooooooooo many fold lines - we just cant do that..

I think I can help you. Engine Texture is the piece of texturing that covers the engine section of aforesaid model. (I assume) to save space the game devs used some textures multiple times (eg for the rear section of the taiidan assault and ion frigates, including others), yet only placed the texture in the .big file once, as far as I can tell, in the first ship directory where it is needed. If you have Deep Exploration you will see that you can open up some ships and find they have blank grey spots. This is where Deep couldn't find the appropriate texture, so it skipped it.

If you locate the texture and place it in the appropriate ship directory, then open the ship in Deep again, Deep Exploration will locate the texture and place it in the correct place.

So, to fix your error, I suggest you locate the textures you need, and place them in their appropriate places. Sorry if this last instruction isnt really descriptive, but I dont know exactly how you're doing this.

Hope that helps.

[EH_AceTFL]

1 problem.. HW have some near 10000 textures, what is that correct?

[Enterprise-E]

Im proud to present you the first HW2 Model, i hope you can recognise it:

[EH_AceTFL]

woooah looks nice. 2 questions: Where you get WinBig for HW2 big files. AND Where we can get that model :]

[Jimmy C]

Good start Enterprise-E, will subsystems be available as accessories?

[Enterprise-E]

EH_AceTFL: I dont have any tool to get the original HW2 models, i made the 3d model myself. I tried to keep it as accurate as possible, and the model remain make-able.
I the other way the orig. HW2 models have quite much polygons, they can't be converted to paper models directly...

Jimmy C: I dont planned any sub-systems for now, since i dont know them at this time. I had only a few screenshots as reference for this model. Maybe some time i make a fighter subsys...

The model will be available as soon i make some assembly instructions for it. When that's done, i will post it on PaperStarships.

[EH_AceTFL]

hmmm If you made that model on yourselt, you must be really good 3dgrafic. How you get textures then? You make them at your own too?

[Bistromatic]

First off: WOW!
i'm really impressed, i've always dreamt about HW models, and this is a cool solution, ecspecially since they are the ingame poly-grids.
I'm mostly done with the Taiidan Heavy Corvette, and had the supernova station started before i realised there were some print errors.
By the way, i printed the Corvette out on half the size, and i think it's a cool scale, with some dexterity it's still ok to build, and it looks a whole bunch more detailed.
I took the half finished model to school today, and it already received some really good feedback.

If requests are still being taken, i'd love to see a Puppeteer with a buch o' drones, now that would be a cool mobile (and quite some work with the strings)

P.S.: I found it extremely helpful to pre trace with the blunt side of my cutter.

[Thac0]

Sheesh.. you guys rock. I doubt I have the coordination to fold one of those so I respect the talent even more. I especially love the idea of a Homeworld chess set.. /me drools

[Latsod]

Thanks for the link Ace, it looks great.

[EH_AceTFL]

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Nomad moon BETA is now awalable (it takes only 9 A4 pages but it isnt error correct? )

Download: www.republika.pl/ehacetfl/nomadmoonbeta.zip

[EH_AceTFL]

buuuuu thead die :[

[Enterprise-E]

This thread never dies! NEVER! Hmm... were nice if it would be docked... it would be worth it...

People arent writing, because they use all their time to make all the models we create:-))

Hmm let's come to the point:
Vaygr Carrier HW2 Model is available for download on PaperStarships!

[EH_AceTFL]

oh YEAH!:yippee:


bwt. How you guys crate unexisting faces that help with folding? Its papekula option, or.. ?

[Enterprise-E]

I don't know how Gearz does, i alter the 3D model itself, or when it's not an in-game model, then i automatically construct it with modular design, to make internal bulkheads.

[Athenor]

Hey, guys? Itsy-bitsy request:

Please, for the love of everything holy, put up some .ZIP files for those of us who can't get access to RAR... especially the big boys and the Prometheus...

(and why isn't your namesake up there yet, Enterprise-E?)

Athenor

[Enterprise-E]

Hmm RAR has better compression than ZIP
You can download latest WINRAR trial for free whenever you want.

My namesake is planned for development....

[Athenor]

No, no, read what I said again:

I -can't- get WinRar. It's not on the college comps, we are forbidden from installing proggies.

Even if I have to direct-connect, or have it e-mailed to me.. I wanna do this.

Now.. granted, all I have is cruddy b&w paper the school provides, and not A4 size... but it is worth a shot.

Athenor

[EH_AceTFL]

zips............ gmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm i think good way will be to place 2 files for download - one zip and one rar. So all will be happy

[Enterprise-E]

EH_AceTFL and all who complain about file compressions:

If you give me unlimited webspace, then i'll put up files in all formats you want...
But now i only have 50 megs of space, and PaperStarships will soonly run out of it... Then it wouldn't be able to evolve anymore... it will die...

[EH_AceTFL]

ekm enterpize.. then crate Paperstarships2, 3, 4, 5 etd..... where is problem ? ( I means crate more acounts on Lycos )

[Enterprise-E]

i can't use another account as a file holder for the PaperStarships account.. cross-linking between accounts isn't makeable.

But forget about it... i will tell, when i have no more space...

[MajorFreak]

god! buncha slave drivers...just tell them to rent a few minutes at the local cybercafe, ask them for winRAR -- hopefully the dude(tte) behind counter knows something besides coffee -- and download the stuff you want, find the file you like and then winzip just the files you want, stuff onto floppy disks and bob's yer uncle!

[EH_AceTFL]

emmmm... ok.. ow...thats what you should do: Force all unfolers to save files to .JPG files, you will save about 80% space

[Vaga Node]

Great Models.

I have one problem though. On Paper Starships I keep getting the referer page ('you must visit the site to download') so I keep going in a loop.

easy. Disable DAP downloader. If you cant (like ME) use <open browser> button, and then retry download, you will get box like save, open cansel, and then push save, it will work.

bwt, i got 2 vyrg carriers :-], and note to Enterprice - can you send me 3dmodel? I like to add some elements to it..

[Fishstick]

If you need someone to host more files, i've a space of about 5gig with unlimited bandwidth. Email me at fishstick@twistedmods.com

[GOF007]

Ah!! I've finished Enterprise-E's Vaygr Carrier
my one is about 15cm long It's great!!!!

[complex]

I can also offer space -- drop me a PM if you need it.

[EH_AceTFL]

cool looking heavy armed Kushan Heavy Cruser (too much desc worl eh?) is awalable now!!

Download : www.republika.pl/ehacetfl/Kushancruser.zip

!! Have fun with folding !! (Kushan Ion array undeway)

[EH_AceTFL]

hmmmmmm there is another idea. Make auto-unpacing (exe) archives. All will be happy then

[EH_AceTFL]

nah sems only i work here..........


ok. There is Kushan Destroyer (try to fold it, if its possible, say how)

Download: www.republika.pl/ehacetfl/KushanDest.rar

[EH_AceTFL]

we.. die... again... :[
we.. are... alone.. again...

[Enterprise-E]

We will not die!

The enemy named school takes up too many time, but i'm still working on models. I try to make my namesake, and a HW ship (secret until it's finished)

We are the indestructable armada of HW modelers, we will NEVER die!

[EH_AceTFL]

well.... this will be nice, if this topic begin docked one...

bwt more HW/Cataclysm (NOT HW2) recuests?



guest whats this :hmm:

[Enterprise-E]

Yes, it would be nice if the thread would be docked. This is the most advanced thread, with the most visits, posts in the entire HW2 section. I think many threads are docked that aren't as far as interesting as this one. I started posting on relic forums because of this thread.

One possible reason for this: The moderators cannot make our models:-)) Or they just hate models...

moderator--> <--modelers :-)))

[Nerath]

Hmm...that's possible . Well, I vouch for docking as well. I think I'm subscribed to this thread just because it rocks...

Well, I did request Cata stuff, but they're all too hard to make flat thingies of, so... he he he. Okay...how about...*restrains urge to repeat earlier Cata ships*...about...well, posting that Somtaaw dreadnought up on PaperStarships, for one...okay, here are some ships for you to do.

-Raider corvettes (maybe the outpost, too?)
-anything Beast
-Kadeshi Needleship and Fuel Pod (I want the whole race set hanging from my ceiling he he) Well, EvilPenguin did the needleship, but I think it's really tiny. Maybe about as big as the Tai ion cannon frigate on PaperStarships?
-Kuun-Lan, maybe? (or is this as impossible as the Beast MS?)



I may attempt a few of my rejected requests if I have time and can actually try it...just because everyone says they're impossible to make. How do you get that texture file to make stuff out of? I can't find whatever earlier thread explains it.
(Well I'll probably fail in the end, but, hey, no harm in trying. That is, if my schedule permits...school takes up so much time)

[Miguel]

Wow...it's a shame I didn't find this thread for so long.
My fav HW2 ship has got to be the Vaygr AC, that ship is so damn tight.

Anyway, I thought about maybe scratchbuilding it out of sheet plastic, but I have no good way of cutting large amounts. Xacto works for little things like fixing flaps on 1/48 aircraft, but an assault craft?

On the subject of paper models, my dad got me 3(!!!) of the MGS3 Snake Eater/MGS paper models from Konami at E3. I've never gotten around to building them. Maybe I'll sell them on Ebay. They are just too hard for me to make.

PLease, someone make an assualt craft.
