Satellite

[The Great Apple]

50K polys???? wow, where are they all? I suppose it was made to be about 40x larger than you see in the screenshot?

Anyway, if anyone else is interested in redoing this one we'd certainly be interested in using it.

Probably there is ploygon detail on the solar panels. The radar dishes look like they might be eating quite a few too...

I just found this thread and I am going to download the mod and see what it does (maybe it is just graphics...)

Anyway, it seems it would be easy to create a unit that had only one mission available to it - Recon - but with a range of 300 or so.

I'm going to check it out now.

EDIT: Just noticed the 3mb NIF file... I think I'll monitor this thread to see if a smaller file is created. I see that we could give this a combat range of 300 or whatever, maybe give it a double Sentry promotion. I'm going to wait a bit before I jump at this.

Well, the original satellite had a lot of detail that couldn't be seen in CIV (unless you used the flying cam).

I removed these details, though I didn't change the parts that remain (I used a NIF viewer ), so it's still big. Not like before, though! Hopefully some people will like it.
