Atakebune Ship

[avain]

Brilliant work, Chuggi!!!
It seems that you are talented at making ships, too! Also, this unit fills a great void, we need more cool ships for civ groups like Meso-Am., Africa and Asia!
Keep it up!!!

 

[Chuggi]

You're just in time to see the Balsa Raft, avain.

Is this what you meant, Geo?

EXCELLENT!

 

[Wolfshanze]

Avain... you didn't notice there is no download link for the raft... that means you have to wait till v2.1 of CD comes out!

Hmmm.
"till v2.1 of CD comes out!"
Ouch. I still thought it'd be this century... well...

 

[Chuggi]

Wolfshanze, I'm waiting for Geo's opinion before I upload it (he requested it so I wouldn't make him wait anyway).

I kiss the ground you just walked upon, Bwana! It's perfect.
I planned to use this for the three meso-american civs, would it be possible to put some teamcolor somewhere? The ropes from the lower platform for instance would be perfect, but if another spot is easier just do so.

 

[Chuggi]

Thanks! I modelled it from scratch (except for the caravel sails). I can't put team colour on the base because it already uses the alpha channel on opacity, but I can probably put some on the sails.

 

[GeoModder]

Only if you want to, you know.

 

[Chuggi]

How's this? It looks better in the Incas colour.

 

[GeoModder]

Mmm... I think my downloads folder is ready to receive it now.

 

[Chuggi]

Done! Now I just have to fix the sail in the civlopedia on the Asian Galley.

Yes please... the final touch on a great model... let us know when it's fixed too!

 

[Chuggi]

I tried to fix the sail in Scene Viewer, but with no success. So it must be just something to do with the NIF. Re-exporting it from max should fix it.

Also, another WIP :

 

[Wolfshanze]

Wow... that's a fantastic looking ship... excellent job Chuggi!

 

[Healz]

These look cool. Looking forward to seeing these in game and destroying them...

Or using them to destroy some European ships.

 

[Healz]

I mainly love the Europeans and those Civilizations that stack up their technology advances very quickly. Gives you a chance then against all those enemies when they come knocking at your door...

 

[The_Coyote]

even i have still no idea what is going wrong with the sail , i could fix the oars in game (same problem like the galleas, using the exported oars from warlords and merging all parts in the different structured warlords galley nif).

Have i already said your ships are great

 

[Chuggi]

Thanks!

But what was wrong with the oars? I think I based it on the Galley out of original Civ IV (not Warlords or Beyond the Sword). So I can see some potential for some problems there, if they use different animations. I'm pretty sure it worked ok in game though as far as I could tell.

Also, I used the same method when I made the Mesoamerican Galley so there could be problems with that...
