Yeah that was me, same user name there as here.

Dug, having some weird problems with your e mail, came back with a violation error, presumably because I mentioned some file formats in it.

There are producers at TrekBBS? News to me....and I should know....

Great SF+F forum there. I'm doing my best to....re-dress as many as possible. In sort of a brownish color.

Added a bit more to my model, I think this is the first time I have worked on it in six months.

Its an even bet as to wether I will finish this before the movie comes out.

In a few days time, I'll show you what my modeller will have done ;)

I also think I'll be able to get some of the Serenity interior modelled. No promises, but the guy I want doing it jsut saw Firefly.. and was amazed.

sooo I'm optimistic! :)

Well I hope his serenity isnt too much better than mine or it will crush my spirits and mean I am less likely to finish mine :)

There will be interiors in mine too, although just what you see through the windows, no plans on the cargo area yet.

It'll be a 3d mesh for a game, not CGI quality (though I gave him a limit of about 50k.. gettin pretty close to CGI lol).

The innards will be complete innards. A lot of the mod will be shots within the ship, so I need the freedom.

Is that 50k poly count, mesh file size, or resulting render image size.. ? I'm wondering because for exterior, interior, etc 50k is miniscule for anything other than rendered images.

50k is the poly limit for the ingame serenity model ;)
