Lib. Assault BC. Redo [WIP]

[Lythrilux]

It's a good model but what's wrong the current one? The current LABC is iconic, and it's hard to imagine not seeing it in the mod anymore.

This is a repetitive question that is rising in all corners whenever this model is presented. Going to make it clear here.

The LABC is an okay model and it's one of the "iconic" ship in Liberty. However, it is lacking so much detail for it to be standing out as, once again, "iconic".

The problem with the ship is that most Textures are not mapped but just unwrapped in different ways that were not taking the time to properly apply them correctly. Few are not even unwrapped to say the worst. "Just slap the texture in the face/normal and walk off." We, 3dmodelers, will not allow that and we will strive to bring out best quality assets for the Discovery Mod and the community out of our voluntary work. Atleast that is how I vision it.

As a matter of fact, i tried to retexture the current model but 80% (+/-) of the mesh normals are not merged with each other - and connecting merging them would be a hassle. It is why I dedicated my full knowledge in creating something good.

As for the current LABC being kept, I do not know if it will be replaced or seize of having a sellpoint. It is up for the Dev Leads.

Let this be known.

Not trying to shoot down your work, but your opinion seems relative. I didn't notice any of those other details, and didn't know about them until you mentioned them.

Lyth your criticism already costed us the core snubline, pls dont let it cost us anything else.

If Fels goes the Aerelm route, and gets his ego bruised by a handful of people giving criticism, and he then torpedos the whole model because of feedback he disagrees with, what the odds that another modeller is insecure and caustic. I hope you don't mean to insult his intelligence by implying that's what he is, because Fels strikes me a rational person who's open to critique.

Don't be so ignorant, especially when you don't know the other half of that story and weren't in certain Discords. You're just marking yourself as an idiot.
