Think of this thread as something similar to conceptships.blogspot.com for the Sins community. Basically, a way for the community to share what they have created whether it makes it into a mod or not.

At a minimum post a screen shot of your model in blender, xsi, 3d object converter, etc or in game. If you have a name for your ship or story behind it, even better.

We are looking forward to seeing what you have created! :)    

Interested in importing your models into Sins?

The soase.weebly is a compilation of many of the hard to find topics created by many experienced soase modders and extensively added to by myfist0. Check it out, you won't be disappointed.


From the beginning of this thread IskatuMesk has wow'd us with his models and ultimately released a video of his creations in Sins of a Solar Empire. This particular model was my favorite in the beginning and still stands out.

SivCorp looking to stretch new ideas from existing models managed to create several menancing models including the fantastic Vasari version seen here: (Vasari Flagship Sonar Kal'd used in the Distant Stars Mod)

Hey, its ORB!    My first space game right there!  ^_^

 

And Tobi, the key to seams is a good base layer that can transition easy.  Sometimes too much detail works against you...

But Shmily is right, you are good with it, so keep at it!

@Shmily123
Looks pretty good. And demonic }:)

 

@SivCorp
Thanks, yes, it's the Ambient occlusion and the normalmap that make the seams so visible. But I wouldn't want to miss them.

Nice dolynick could you make a red one my ships are supposed to have a red effect like that coming out of th espikes what mod is that for by the way

Shmily,

It's for the Stargate Races mod.  The effect is quite simple.  Just a rotating bright center with some thing rays of light rotating inside it.  Not much to it, but relatively effective in game.  The latest release for Diplomacy has one ship using a very large one included in the mod.  You should be able to copy it and easily modify it for your own needs.  I had some trouble getting it to stay permanently in game though, so I had to resort to just a ridiculously long lifespan because "time is infinite" didn't seem to work on the effect.

It's just Particle Forge work.  If you have the mod tools then you should have it.  I'm not especially good with Particle Forge but it's simple enough to take something and modify it a bit to suit your requirements.  In this case it sounds like it might be as simple as picking a different color and changing the width values.

I think I used 9,999,999 (maybe another 9?) seconds if I recall.  Should be plenty long enough. Lol.

I know, I copied the number off of the Flair for the Pirates rotating skull i believe. I didn't calculate how damn long of a timespan that was :grin:

Here is my first model, before I discovered how to create edges and extrude and I thought that knifing it up was the way to go, so it is rather messy...
