[WIP] Type IX for sh5

mkiii · 01-28-18, 05:47 PM

not much to update, limited time at the moment, fixed the telegraf needle, it now goes the right way, mesh needed mirroring in x before importing, had to do this with a lot of things, got a hatch position I am happy with (at last)
got a couple of glitches still, main one is inside the ct (need to modify the deck to sort this out) still a wip,
but small progress, is still progress I guess.

So to get rid of the conning tower glitch I had to carve a hole in the deck, simple enough now I know how to do it, problem it destroys the uv`s, obvious really with hindsight, so learn how to do uv`s, not hard really, just time consuming, and skull crushingly boring, then channel 2 uv`s, took a while to figure this out because .obj can only have 1 set of uv`s, then bake an AO map for the new uv`s, few false starts here but got there in the end.
result

such a lot of work for a hole, the good bit was having to rebuild the hull again, because deleting mesh subsets keeps giving me errors. and to top it all off I have not tried it in game yet, so it may not even sort out the glitch, but we live in hope.

well the hole in the deck gets rid of the glitch, just needs to be bigger, I had to move the room ct to get a good position in the conning tower, so now I have to move the control room to match up again, and then all the other rooms to line up with them,

which would be a whole lot easier if they had put the hatches in the rooms, instead of in the hull.
but I think this is the last of the big works, after this its just small things.
