For this.
Bravo

Just in case you are wondering I have done some more work on this, though mainly remodelling, hence no update. I wasnt happy with the cockpit, and still aren't lol, though I do have an idea of how I want to approach it.

Not a lot gonna get done tonight as England are playing Wink
Bravo

Still not quite happy with the cockpit...though I am struggling to find a way of doing it so that it can be manipulated easily ingame yet still look the part...

Polies within specified limits (even after allowing for the game triangulating them)

Invincible

love it!
although ther is one problem.
-The back is much diferent, look at the shape in the Ref i send you.
-Could you also make the small window on the cocpit?
- the windows have more of a other shape.
-Also i think the nose is a bit to long, i dont want to be to critic but well.

The back of what? The cockpit? or the full plane?

Which small window?

Yes I know, but the extra polies required took us well over the specified limit, this is one of the reasons I took so long with this model. In the end I chose to save the polies on the windows as reducing polies elsewhere made the plane look 'wrong'. I can fix the back windows to be more round if I can have extra polies.

The front windows need to be how they are so that they can open and close in the game...

It is correct by the blueprints you gave, must be the angle of the render...

yes

I Stil would realy like to see a simpel tailgun, (quite inportant).
Try to do as much with texture as posible so details that can by texture.
But some windows are realy needed, It needs to look as much as posible as the real plane.
Also the 8 7,9 mm mg's.... The firepower is the hard of this plain.
8 small tubes if posible.
as well as the small window.
you may a extra 500 polly's,but try to save some on other parts.

It is posible im sure and i know you can do tihs hehe.
good luck

(so crit away: you sed it yourself Wink )
Bravo

Gonna do the gun you wanted and see how many polies that takes before I do any more to the plane, as then we will know exactly where we are poly wise.

Prolly gonna be at the weekend though...
Bravo

Ok, to save on polies, invincible requested I remake the cockpit so the windows could be textured in rather than modelled.

The model now has:

2056 Points
4036 Edges and
1940 Faces (which the game will triangulate to make 3880)

It had to be done within 5,000 so we have left 1220 for the gun he wants doing, leaving me with 610 polies in effect, thats up next.

Bravo

After speaking with one of the requestors for this model and finding out that not only do they want the cockpit modelling (no probs with that), a gun for it modelling (no probs with that either) but they want the model redoing to include hitboxes etc etc, which basically means starting the fokke model from scratch. After thinking about it, I come to the conclusion that for a free model this is far too much work, and other models arent getting done due to the sheer time required for one single model.

So, work has stopped on this, beginning work on the tank...
Invincible

hmmm that sucks.
Anyway could you still send me the model of the G-1? (if you want)
Maybe i can stll use it as a static.
Stil many tanx for your try. much apriciated, sorry you stoped.
