Final Details Applied To Pioneer Bengal Share on Bluesky Share on Facebook Share on Twitter

Howard Day has finished the final texture map for his Bengal class carrier, and it's come in at a trim 2048x2048 resolution. That's just a quarter of what his initial projections were for all the detail included. This should improve handling of the ship in WC Pioneer. Here's a shot of the basically complete mesh and wearing the final map. These are some screenshots of the final textures and everything coming together in Howard's modeling program.
I did a final texture test to see what scale texture this thing will need in game. I was worried that we'd need a 4096x4096 for all the detail to show though - but lucky me! There's just enough resolution for the the goodies to show up. Add in a detail texture for those really close-up situations, and I think we're golden. Here are some in-MAX shots of the mesh with the combined map on it.

Fan Fiction Leaves You Hanging Share on Bluesky Share on Facebook Share on Twitter

Forums member Plywood Fiend has published the first chapter of the second book in his "Front Lines" series. The first book was posted in full to the Forums over the course of two years. You can find all 38 chapters here. The new book is titled "Hangman's Noose." You can check out the prologue here once you've read through the first book.

Greetings, sorry for the long space between any kind of anything for this project but I really did need some time away.

This continuation takes place after a fair few chapters which I haven't written yet. My plan is to release book 1, (up to just after the battle with the Hvarkann) once I've ironed out all the plot holes and spelling errors. This will take the form of a downloadable word document/PDF file.
