uploading of models - Jinx - 08-08-2009
this is meant for updated models that you wish to be included.
firstly - http://discoverygc.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=4788
igiss terms apply in any way! - make sure you read them.
secondly - in order to make it a little easier for you and the dev team. - you can Email the files to the following Email address:
sjarja@yahoo.com
i can then place them in a thread on the developers board ( uploading them there ) - instead of having igiss mailbox becoming too full.
what will be done with the files?
- firstly, i ll check for any obvious bugs like strangely applied hardpoints, mesh errors, skin errors or incompatibilities. ( that does not mean that i ll do your job there - if its something minor, i ll fix it, if its a major problem, i ll PM you and you ll have to fix it )
- secondly, we ll review the model to meet the quality standards. - when its not put in, you get a reply about why it cannot be included at that time / in that state. - that can include a low model quality as well as an unfitting design or simply cause its not needed at that time for the mod.
- thirdly, we will test the model and balance it.
what YOU need to provide is:
- a .cmp file ( or a .3db file that is compatible with freelancer )
- a .mat file ( or a .3db file that is compatible with freelancer )
- a . sur file ( if you haven t got a custom hitbox for it, i ll resize an existing one, which WILL not fit perfectly well! - but might be sufficient )*
- a shiparch.ini ( not necessarily needed )*
- a goods.ini ( not necessarily needed )*
- a cockpit.ini ( not necessarily needed )*
- an icon .3db ( if you wish it to have its custom icon - if not, we might attach a similar vanilla icon to it )*
- a brief description of the ship concept*
- a brief description of the ships balance ( turrets, turret orientation, stats in general etc. )*
- a brief description how its embedded into freelancer discovery ( faction, faction restrictions, intended role of the ship [ like explorer, warship, defense, scout etc. ] )*
* = if you don t provide those informations / files, it ll be made up by the dev team.
in any case, you will stay the "creator of the ship/model" - but its really necessary to submit rather bugfree and finished products.
edit: keep in mind, the higher the quality of the submission, the less work we have in the dev team, the more time we can dedicate to balance / add other features. - replaces are always apreciated, submissions of new ships have it harder. - if you submit a special ship for yourself ... make SURE that you got green lights from the mod creator first and please post the Email correspondence with igiss about it, too. ( saves us time, cause we d have to get feedback there in any way ) .... i do not think that we will include special ships that were not explicitly agreed on.
uploading to my Email only applies for the next update or until i remove that option. its just temporary, so we can start "sorting" submissions and stuff.

Question, are we still getting the new order carrier model in the next update?
uploading of models - Jinx - 08-08-2009
yes, there s no reason we don t. - the model is fully finished and tested. ( same applies to the BHG BC and basicly the corvo ... and a few other ships )
uploading of models - Tenacity - 08-08-2009
Sweet, I liked that model.
What changes were made to the corvo? Never saw a thread on it.

I'm assuming there won't be a complaint if a working cockpit model is provided as well?
