Default [WIP] HMS Tally Ho

Hi all, I am currently working on my first mod, the HMS Tally Ho. She's only just gotten started, so this might take a while...


With blueprints

And without

Excellent

Will this be a playable or an AI? What polycount is your target?

I will try to make it playable, that is my goal, and my maximum polycount is around 20,000 exterior, and will work from there.

Nice start Mate.


Just try to keep some sections detached or you'll end up with alot of work when you go to import.

Really clean model mate, you have certainly a good eye for this

What program are you using, is that 3DSMax?

Remember that you must change it to triangles to import with S3D.
So your count is going to double as all quads will split into 2 tris.

And in case you wonder?

the polycounter already counts it in triangles, I found that out when checking, and I had the blueprints in. each plane took up 2 poly.

I am also reworking the hull so it is one piece, and better detailed
