    does it get rid of that annoying flickering on the pad? anyone else have that? if you move around at certain angles the pad will flicker with blue lines...

    thats because the plane of the model is in height = 0 like the texture below.
    you see both faces at once depending on your z-buffer, color dept and gfx card.

    Anti-freeze, while its a good model, I cant see how the extra 600 polies or so have been used to great effect, without a major difference people aren't going to waste frames per second. (try making it a complete circle maybe?, rather than lots of sharp edges)

    What would be grand with some of these higher-poly models would be if people could enlarge (and clean up) the textures, for better detail/definition.

    Nice plan maus. The extra polys were just for general smoothing.
    And yes it should fix the flickering, the bottom of the IP is slightly abouve the ground its placed on so that should happen any more

    P.S. Thanks for not flaming

    All the maps in ns are 256x256, i have tryed re-skining them but i didn't really get very far, 256 is hard to work with plus adding detail, unless the were re-meshed at 512x512.

    They don't need to be remeshed. The skinmesh fits to the dimensions of the texture.

    I like it personally. While there is very little added to it. Its still good to see people making high poly models. Well done.

    Not everyone has old **** systems.

    Perhaps in the next version add a little more to the shape. Perhaps a small generator box hanging off the side with a small light or something. Just small... but add a little bit of a personal touch.

    But, yeah its good to see some high poly models like I said. Nice.

    hey! anyone one doing high poly models!

    Gotta say, i will not be doing an high poly version of the IP it's fine as it is now imho.
    Any extra detail i'd add would be unnoticed.

    And for 900 polys, i do not see a big difference from the old one! <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
    I could give you a few pointers if you want. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Well the main advice i can give you to make high poly stuff, is to increase the level of detail on the stuff that is apparent at first glance.

    For the IP, the main part is the border. But, since the whole building is small, if all you did was make it rounder, you'd have to crouch and look closely to see a difference. While as someone walking by would see nothing interesting.

    So you have to use the little features around it, like those cylinders poiting outwards.
    Make them a bit bigger and add more.

    Look at my res node model i made. I made the whole thing rounder sure, but it's just to make the "8 sided look" go away. I took the 2 little pipes which were 4 sided, and make them 12, then copy/paste the whole thing over. Still hase the same basic look, but the detail is a lot easier to see.

    As for my armory, i changed the panel to one with depth, since most ppl go right in front of them to get ammo. I also made the advanced modules that extended rounder, since that a dead give away of the status of the building.
