Good practice for your NEXT project, Mr TFM... Not that I'm dropping hints or anything...

You're not suggesting that I'm hinting about you finishing that EXCELLENT start to Pride of Bilbao (and Bilbao/Santander (in one environment)) are you?

The idea hadn't even started to form in my mind.

It never crossed my mind

But have no fear - they WILL be finished...

I have every confidence that you WILL FINISH 'Pride of Bilbao' to the same excellent standard that you have already shown.

I also have confidence that if vstep aren't already waiting to pounce on your Pride of Bilbao model, that I'll be ready to pounce on vstep. And I don't think they'd like that.

Sorry about the name but I do live in the middle of a forest!
I don't have time to blog very often, but this merits one. Ferry Man, if you are creating Channel Queen I am continuing to learn Mission Editor for her. My idea is for a 24hr shift split up into segments with interesting traffic and maybe the odd incident. They are my hopes but I want your ship!!!

Stuart2007 · « **Reply #61 on:** April 24, 2011, 23:28:46 »

TFM, keep building... Maybe we'll see your vessels (one especially....

) in 'Amazing simulation' at some point in the future.

danny · « **Reply #62 on:** April 25, 2011, 12:10:20 »

TFM how many polys are you over? and do you know were?
3DSmax has a optimisation feature and i'd be happy to run your model though it, just send me a PM.
yours
dan

The Ferry Man · « **Reply #63 on:** April 25, 2011, 12:16:10 »

Well I don't have the current poly count but before I did everything I was ~100,000 over

I am hoping the changes I have done have got it down a bit. Thanks for the offer - once I find out I will get back to you thanks

Stuart2007 · « **Reply #64 on:** April 25, 2011, 13:20:18 »

Poly count seems to be less of a problem for other simulators.

Perhaps it isn't YOU that needs to learn about optimisation...

Lars
I had a session with the first part of the tutorial last night and all I can say is that it is not going to be a quick job!!! I might be ready about the time that VSTEP think about it. In the meantime, I can build it around Pride of Rotterdam (sob, sob)

Keith.

danny · « **Reply #66 on:** April 27, 2011, 20:22:17 »

may i ask what the above post has to do with TFM's model?

TFM, updates! we crave updates!

The Ferry Man · « **Reply #67 on:** April 27, 2011, 20:23:26 »

hehe

Well I will get her poly counted ASAP

But then I just got to sort out textures for her...

Thats the basic scheme she will look like, but I need to get it like that onto the 2048 square and the 2x 512 repeatables then...

Quite a lot. I have started building a shift mission for the Channel Queen but unfortunately have to use the Pride as the base ship. Lars pointed out it could be quite a long time to see the Channel Queen ship in the simulator and its also going to be quite a long time to get the missions created as well.

craigster1 · « **Reply #69 on:** May 11, 2011, 14:43:39 »

i wish and wish and wish that i could make one like that but im just not that good you guys are using photoshop [which I have not] so if you look at most of my modal around the site they are so **** im just not cut out for this you guys that make the ocean liners are really smart and have good skills that is all you need really but all im good at is being banned from this site my best one i think i can do is the little wight link but as a few people have try they have done a huch better one then me who ever made the ccc ship that won good hes got skills so i wish i was like you lot that can do better then me

You really are a naughty boy. Does your mummy and daddy know you say that?

EDITED BY ME: I quoted the very word that I told craig that he was being a plank for using. How clever of me.

Well learn some manners and maybe you'll live to see 16. You'll learn one day (maybe) that crude language isn't big or clever- or 'cool' as you youngsters say. You will impress people with poor language no doubt, but probably not those that you want to.
