very nice work so far, even though you need to work out that texture and the name.

firestar12 · « **Reply #126 on:** April 28, 2009, 21:32:18 »

Am I really amazing? I don't know about that. Hm....I might work on her today. If I can find the time. Tuesdays and Thursdays are my busy days, but I always try to get something in.

EDIT: Well Diamant, it looks like you will have your wish soon. I need to completely re-uv map the hull texture.

firestar12 · « **Reply #127 on:** April 28, 2009, 21:53:13 »

I can't promise you that. It is very hard work.
EDIT: Well, here is a start. Still have to get rid of that damn thing at the bow!

UV Mapping is very frustrating.

firestar12 · « **Reply #128 on:** April 28, 2009, 21:59:23 »

I believe I did yes.

firestar12 · « **Reply #129 on:** April 30, 2009, 20:40:15 »

That was yesterday....

The meeting is over.

Uh....sure. Here is an update showing three possible new hulls. (Ignore the texturing job, I am not done with that. You might not notice much of a difference between the hulls. The only one that is different is the one on the very far left. The on on the right is exactly the same, just trying to fix its texture job. And yes Diamant, I will fix those black and white parts after I get the basic UV Mapping work correct. Also, ignore that red and black at the stern.

firestar12 · « **Reply #130 on:** April 30, 2009, 20:50:45 »

Yes, lots of happy memories.

It was fun. That is because of subsurf. If I have it applied, it will make the edges fade away like that. The final hull will not be like that.

firestar12 · « **Reply #131 on:** April 30, 2009, 21:24:43 »

You were scared for a second huh? I have an update. Right now it looks VERY weird. That is the fun part of UV mapping. It looks like it has part of it broken off...

That is just the texture job.
Also, if anyone here wants to see the fellow who created the SS United States? Here he is!
William Francis Gibbs.

EDIT:What do you mean by support? You guys were going to stop supporting me?

Ok, I did the (What I hope to be) Final UV Mapping job. For those of you like DIAMANT who cant see the difference between the two hulls, this picture should clear things up. The one on the left is more accurate and has a better texture job. The on on the right that has the superstructure and all that on it has that annoying rise that I can't get rid of lol. Anyways, here is an update.

firestar12 · « **Reply #132 on:** May 01, 2009, 00:36:52 »

Haha...I am still working on it. I am not done yet. Be sure to check!

Thank you a lot Tore! Later today I will post a sample of the SS United State's horn. I think you guys will love it. I tested to see how it sounded on Titanic (Titanic because it is a ship of rough comparison) and it sounded good! Needs a lot more work though (Made longer, less 'dirty' etc...).

Faster than the Pride of Burgundy!

IRI5HJ4CK · « **Reply #144 on:** May 06, 2009, 13:47:28 »

Haha, The modelling is done with Burgundy-its the VS Programming thats the pain in the backside. I got her when she was handling like a speedboat, now she takes there abouts 4-5 minutes to reach a top speed of 23 knots. I've done all the handling, it's the throttle's that are the problem now-Only one is displaying, but Nathan wants two you see

Anyway, I won't spam your topic Firestar

Jack.

firestar12 · « **Reply #145 on:** May 06, 2009, 19:58:51 »

Haha...no worries. I will post updates soon I hope. My laptop has bee slowing me down (Getting it fixed)

RMS Gigantic · « **Reply #146 on:** May 06, 2009, 21:51:37 »

Your progress is as fast as the SS United States itself!

No telling how fast you'll be working with school closing and that laptop not slowing you down!

You could probably get it done in time for SS10 Q1 2010!

firestar12 · « **Reply #147 on:** May 06, 2009, 23:09:22 »

Maybe! Hopefully. What does Q1 mean though?

Kapn Jonah · « **Reply #148 on:** May 06, 2009, 23:11:01 »

Not sure...

it means the first 3 months of the year, the first 1/4 which is the first quarter.
edit: you were just a bit too fast Diamant.
