      Criss' Thread

      The funny thing is that I had originally planned on scrapping it, but then I started associating other factors of those ships with the second digit, and the digits came out exactly the same, so I stuck with the original plan instead as it was more consistent. I definitely understand the...

      Criss' Thread

      Just to give some further insight, as a lot of the specific numbers were determined by me, and Criss and I just focused on the general layout for the naming convention. jstenholt you're completely right in that aviation, such as Boeing does it differently than we did. The original inspiration...

      [SFW] Sioux Fleetworks

      Sorry to break it to ya buddy, but those missiles will be broken once the flora get their models in place of sprites. :P Though the capsules and light rods should look better at that point.

      haha, I did think about it a long time ago, never really got around to it. I usually just have people send them to my youtube inbox, but it would probably be easier as a thread. May do that once I get moved though, thanks for the reminder. :)

      Starmade Visualization

      Everything's looking awesome everybody! Loving how the renders are turning out. If the software you're using isn't able to import .mesh files (we use a specific exporter to create them) there are a handful of online converters available online that will change your 3D files to different...

      Starmade Visualization

      Ya'll are doing a 3D thread and no one tagged me?! :O Seriously though this is great work everybody, I love seeing what people do with it. Also this is a big reason why sprites are getting a push to be 3D models now, so you won't have to deal with the alpha issues of capsules, light rods, and...

      The new 3d model export system: Just why?

      Huzzah! A great victory was had this day! Glad to hear it's working and I'd love to see what you do with the models in the future. You can either post a thread of your own or you can drop a post in my 3D thread in "Schine!" on the forums. Happy modeling!

      The new 3d model export system: Just why?

      I just tried to import the file you provided, but wasn't able to get anything from the file, as in nothing would load up in 3ds Max. Are you only getting a .obj file when you export using the "Export as 3D model" button in the in-game catalog window? After exporting using that button (after...

      The new 3d model export system: Just why?

      I'd be interested in hearing more of the specifics about what process you're using to import the models. The image below is the same as was included in the news post, however all I did was drag and drop the .obj file into a rendering scene I have set up in 3ds Max. No additional work, no texture...

      Starmade memes

      I'll just leave this here...... It's not specifically about USD's, more about StarMade build elements in general, but I thought it was a good representation.

      The ship design thread

      Already some great points being made in this thread, I'll just add a few things that aren't super specific in here. As you (the builder) continue to build more and more you'll get better and better, you'll find and refine your own unique style. Absolutely feel free to take inspiration from...

      It's time for Starmade to implement what it has always needed!

      I have not ruled out stairs, but I keep having to shorten my answers when you bring them up every single day. The long answer is: Stairs are a possibility for the future, however there are currently bigger features being worked on and made a priority. Things which are quick to make are...

      Saber's Thread

      Just wanted to let everyone know that today's stream will be taking place in 3 hours (at the top of the hour) and it will be a 3D Modeling stream! I'll be showing how we go from a 2D sprite to fully modeled 3D Flora.

      Saber's Thread

      I forgot to add the render to the news post, so here's some info on the new blocks. White Light Bar Poly Count: 34 Info: Before replacing the light rod sprite with their own model, a new light was desired to further test the LOD systems strain on the game and client's machines. Once we know a...

      Saber's Thread

      One of the assets will be a new block, the other is to replace an existing sprite. Light Rods and Capsules were meant to be some of the first sprites that got swapped out, but some issues have pushed those back a bit, their models have been done for some time though, so it's up to whenever...

      Saber's Thread

      So release has taken longer than originally predicted, Schema has been hard at work trying to put together our new trading system. No official word on when release will be (should be this week, hopefully a couple days from now), but because of that I thought I'd tease out some shots of the new...
