Rheinland model

[Doom]

Hitboxes, hardpoints and so on? Is it actually possible to work with Blender here? I did an export as 3ds and imported the whole thing in Milkshape... looks crappy.

it is possible to make hadpoints with blender as with any moddeling program. However some limitations on them like arcs will not be possible to make without editing CMP file with UTF editor. I make them with HardCMP. But for that to be good model must be perfectly aligned in x axis, and all numerical inputs must be very precise. In past Igiss most complained aboput badly placed hardpoints, so pay attention what you do.

I recomend texturing model in Milkshape since its main tool that modelers use. However texturing in Milk is rather hard compared to other programs. And it takes time to be done corectly. I use Milkshape, others use other programs...so it can be done in many ways.

As for looking crappy in Milkshape dont be bothered by that. Important thing is how it looks in game.

Textures may seem small but look at any vanilla ship and most of custom ones they look rather well in game. So again, dont be bothered by that.
