The Achilles will be a Capital Ship and will carry 2 squadrons of 10 fighters, one of F-302s most likely, and the second squadron of the new fighters.

Are you going to build a new kind of strike craft or just use the f 302( one with railguns and one with missiles)

I am going to design a new fighter and build it, it will most likely look similar to the 302, but with definite changes.  Anyhow, on the note of the Achilles, she has been textured by one Major A Payne, who also built the model.  Here is the textured version.

i got a idea that you guys might like,

in the loading screen for the game. instead of having Sins theme music, why dont you use stargate sg1/atlantis/universe theme music instead to get a stargate feel for the game?

just shooting ideas.

hope you like it

i appologise in advance if this idea had been said before.

to my knowledge it has been said, and we are using themed music.  Your idea is welcomed though

Lovely job on the Achilles.  She looks fantastic.  What are the poly restrictions on this game?  I haven't been able to find them. 

Just a observation----  \/

The achilles looks like it has some attributes from a few different shows mashed up into one ship...

i am really likeing all of you ship designs..... but they are all starting to look the same and a bit over the top, i really like the achilles but it has such a long nose which i dont think they would do on a space ship it would make it very weak. But i still like it and it should be used here are some fan ships that i really like and that put a spin on the ship design.

let me no what you think.

P.S. i hope you dont think i am trying to mean because I LOVE THIS MOD and i check it every day, i just see how every one else puts there ideas in so i felt i should say something.

The Thor is going to be in the mod, as for the other 2, they are interesting designs, I will keep them bookmarked, just incase.  Thanks for the suggestion.

So far the limit that I have seen is about 12,000 for ships, if there wont be many of that particular ship, and not sure yet on the stations.

what shows are you refering to?

An oddly long hull with a slight slope is probably the most effective ship design for space warfare.  It allows for more dispersion of impacts along the surface when facing the enemy.

Update on the Achilles.

After extensive work, and a nagging attempt to learn XSI correctly, we have the model ingame, temporarily at the moment.  The mesh Im about to show you was exported with XSI, but for some reason the shading is being weird, and exporting through max is just not an option anymore.  Anyhow, here is the Achilles ingame.

awsome

wow nice, just a few texting on it and another model is done on the list =]. that means earlier release date =]

AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Gr8 work..... 

Is there any chance of some screenshots of the Aurora class with textures and ingame? I'm really looking forward in seeing that!

Once the aurora has a texture, she will be ingame and I will take shots... she is really difficult to get textures on atm

After adding the tangent map in XSI, with the help from Major Stress and the ModSetDocs, I haave been working on getting the mesh complete. Here are updated shots, there are still some problems with the mesh, but I think now it will be easier to work out.

That last shot looks amazing. Nice job!

Hello, I have never done any game modding before, but I love Stargate and most Sci-fi programs and with Sins I just have a passion to get involved.  Can somebody please advise how I do that?

Cheers

HI i have a question.

Which program you use for make this models?Tahnk you very much.

Neki heki

I use 3D studio Max to make my models, and then I am now learning how to convert the models using XSI to get them to look correct in Sins, which is very difficult for me at the moment as Im still having problems.

OK thank you very much .

I started learn how use this 3D studio Max and maybe later i ask how convert to XSI.

Thank you Eomega

Hi i cant find the 3D studio Max.

You have the original or crack?If you have a crack can you say me where i can download this program?

Thank you viki.

im sorry, your want that program without buying it?? only use cracks / pirated versions when the orginial software doesnt work or when somehow your having problems with the paying method (i.e. u.s. only)

kind of hope nobody is actually going to provide a link for him - .-

i dont come into this thread alot,  but sure love the work thats being done here

i see theres no release date whatsoever,  but is there an estimate??  (1 or 2 months    3 or 6 months..    a year ???   don't think im being pushy... just curious)

Ok that means you have originial.

Ok i try the cinema4D it can be use for making the models?

If not , say me what is best program for making models without 3D studio max.

Thank you very much
