Oh right yeah. I'm not sure why the materials are configured the way they are, but since it's only using a single texture map in all the materials, I'm setting all the faces to use a single material ID in 3dsmax, before I export.

Looks like the washed out texture thing is something to do with the altitude? Down near sea-level, the textures look fine, but the higher you go, the more they get washed out?

Nice! Looks like a variant on the Star Destroyer?

yep, it's the early one 'venator' class used by the clone troopers in episode 2 and 3. not the best model but it was just a test. but im very glad i got the bumps in. just adds so much more realism to it





this game will be amazing if we get to fly these

Just replace the Mig model. It will look realistic.

Hi Team, New to Outerra and just simply amazed. I have spent the last 10hrs (over a few days) just flying over the south island of NZ.. with Kelvinr's textures it takes my breath away. I absolutely love this spaceship (thanks WormSlayer!) but I have a very n00b question if you wouldn't mind.. I can place this ship into Anteworld and I can move it left, right, far and close but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to put it up in the sky :/

Thanks! and does anyone else have any other detailed ships like this they can share?

Peace

It's not such a dumb question! It isnt listed in the help file, but if you press the V key, you can move the selected model up and down. It's a bit awkward to move things up a little bit at a time, so I sometimes spawn the object on top of a nearby mountain, then move it horizontally to get some altitude for a sweet screenshot :D

I have 3dsmax and a lot of time on my hands. If someone can give me a step by step guide for one ship I can do it for all of them.

Basically, you export from max in .DAE format, then import that to Outerra.

Forum thread on the import tool.

I've been meaning to import a bunch of stuff to Outerra but got side-tracked working on another VR project.
