Author: notebook

Additional tiles added. Add-on "Tiles Update" is now redundant.
Base tiles will be overwritten by Donamy's New Sheperd add-on
N.

This is a simple add-on, just surface tiles and a base at the Launch Pad and Landing Pad
sites.

Cool! Now if we can get a New Shepherd addon too

 

[Interceptor]

Thanks Notebook.

Donamy is working on it.

 

[Donamy]

Thanks Notebook for the base. New Shephard is almost done will work on the Launch tower next.

 

[Donamy]

After landing.

 

[Notebook]

That is looking excellent Donamy, looking forward to it!

N.

 

[Donamy]

... a little more progress.

 

[Donamy]

A little work on the tower.

 

[Notebook]

Looking very good Donamy, what modeller do you use?

N.

 

[Donamy]

I use AC3D. It is easy to learn, has a great converter to .msh, easy texturing and makes finding vectors for animations easy as well.

 

[Notebook]

Thanks Donamy. I'm looking at alternatives for £ds Studio. Bought it up to ver. 5.1, but its gone industrial prices now.
Having a trial of AC3D, I like the layout, looks familiar...

thanks, N.

Notebook,

Can you paste this onto the corn ranch tile, so the launch pad and structures can cast shadows? I cleaned up the clutter.

 

[Donamy]

Also, feel free to ask if you have any questions with AC3D.

Ok, you have generated a .dds tile? Why don't you package the Corn Ranch base with your add-on? Would save me updating?

By that I mean, you modify Corn Ranch to suit your add-on and release that. Then I'll delete my version from Orbit Hangar?

No I don't... too late in the evening, why don't you modify and add my Corn Ranch add-on to yours? Then I can delete mine.

N.

 

[Donamy]

Not sure on making surface tiles. I've added them to my mesh bases, but you don't get shadows that way.

 

[Notebook]

OK, let me have a go with your tile and see how it fits. Hopefully we can get a result!

N.

 

[Donamy]

I was able to do it by adjusting 2 tiles. I holpe you didn't work to hard on it.

 

[Notebook]

No probs.
Due to the magic of time-zones I've been asleep while you have been working!
If you are happy with what you've got that's grand,
I've purchased AC3D, so lots of playing to do

I'm guessing when you release your add-on, you will include those .dds tiles to overwrite the originals?

N.

 

[Donamy]

Yes, I will. Thanks.
