Hello to everybody i introduce you my new vessel called Nissos Chios which is under construction.I will try to design a vey realistic model and find all required informations so we can see this ship finally in the game.Because my english are not very well, i hope the ship sim administrators and designers will help me to finish the model..
-
What can I say...
WOW!!!!!
That is very impressive!!! :2thumbs:
Would love to see that in SS
What program did you use?
Great Job :2thumbs:
-
Thanks a lot man,i use rhino 3d and but i dont know if the designers of the game will accept that type of models ,thats why i try to make more and more realistic
-
Very nice! do you think you can make Hellenic Wind aswell? :P
-
Thanks a lot man,i use rhino 3d and also google sketch up but i dont know if the designers of the game will accept that type of models ,thats why i try to make more and more realistic
there are some guidelines for adding a ship into the game, try searching for them :thumbs:
Nice model by the way!
-
Yes i read all of them but there are some parts that i dont understand very well thats why for sure i need some help..
Thanks a lot everybody.
-
Where's Firestar when you need him?
-
Haha yes...but the project has still a lot of work,also in the interior bridge there are many difficulties cause i dont have many photos to help me...i hope someone will help with some photos if there are available...
-
I am impressed...
-
Thanks a lot and i am curently working in the interior bridge and specific in the consoles..
-
Excellent stuff, henry! Very good work indeed!!
The guidelines are a tadge obsolete at the moment and it does not look like there will be any chance of introducing player made vessels into SS08. And since SSEx will be a new and different game, the specifications will chance too.
But, after SSEx is released, the development team are most likely going to evaluate the possibilities and come up with some new and updated guidelines. This will however take a while, as you can understand. In the mean time, it might still be possible to introduce models as static objects, as eyecandy, but even that takes time and effort on behalf of the development team that they simply haven't got. They're working double shifts already to get SSEx done in time. ;D
If you want to press on anyway, you may also PM me with any specific question you may have about them. I'll do my best to answer them and make things clear if and when needed.
Again, very nice work!! I am keen to see more!
Regards,
Fred

Very impressive model, it would realy fit into the game, we'll see what SSE will bring :thumbs:
-
It is impressive, for sure.
Does anyone know what attitude HS has to shipsim models.???
-
HS?

HS?
If WM were here I know what he'd be saying to you now...
"Comon, TFM"
-
I will give you a clue... In the same way that SL is an abbreviation of Stena Line, PO is an abbreviation of Poor [and]Outdated..
HS in abbreviation of-???

On Topic
So how is the interior going?
How do you do the interior? Do you create a second model, or remove the sides or what? I always have troublre merging the two :doh:

Hi
Nice model. I have also seen this model Vs forum.
Are you making this model together with ariadne
This model seems as if made with sketch up :) I use sometime Rhino. The ship's hull looks more smooth and realistic with rhino3d. Sorry if I'm wrong...

Yes my friend i am ariadne so do worry...this is designed to be suitable for ship simulator because i did not know that it was a forum for active projects for ship sim...Thats why i open this topic
Here you can see how is going the progress of my model in the outside decks..
-
Henry, this is really good. The hull is fine- don't change it.
It is ALWAYS going to be possible to make a hull smoother, but this will increase the poly count and this could be an obstacle for future use. It looks really good as it is.
-
Yesterday i change the hull of the model and i designed again today,but saw me please in which part of the model do you think the hull could be smoother? and i see what i can do..
-
Henry, the hull is good. Very good.
Don't listen to anyone telling you it isn't. I can't see any problems at all. If you try and smooth anything else then you will increase the poly count...
Finish off the fine detailing, but leave the hull alone.
This is a REALLY good model!

How many polygons have you got in fact ? You can more increase polygons if the ship's hull minimum polygon. But she also looks beautiful like this.
-
But if you can avoid using lots of polys for the hull (mostly underwater!!!) then you have lots of polys for the important bit on top that people see! That's where the detail is useful
-
Unless you capsize a lot...
I really like this model, I think SA might feature it in the next magazine. Ask him...
-
Yes you are right but the are not many polygons in the model and specilay underwater so dont worry..At this time all my attention is for the interior bridge which is beatyfull as you can see in the photo..
