I don't think you'll be doing that ever. Its a little on the large side and impossible to program I think.

I have to say that the model is scarily accurate. Take some textures from the CG top-down shots and apply them to see what it looks like. I think the mesh looks as good as it needs to be, however, I haven't finished the front yet and Raven hasn't OK'd the latest changes so don't do too much on the front.

Once we have an in-game of this baby we can progress to the next level. Essentially, the future of this project lies in your hands...

Definitely, PM the model to CJ and possibly Raven and LC for them to look at. I'd like to see the Infinty and BCII systems mixed together for the first time.

You don't HAVE to. Though they're usually associated with staff or actual programmers as opposed to modellers (otherwise more or less everyone would have them).

If you are to join the BC2 Mod team, or the site staff, then you must have one of those avatars.

That's a great idea.

I'd like to have a copy of it as well. If it's ok with you, and Chris'll send it to me, I can just get it from him.

Re: Joining the BC2 Mod Team... I believe that invitation comes straight from Raven. At least that's how Chris and I were recruited.

Your scale is REALLY off. Check with Raven. That doesn't seem right at all.

Well, here is the pic showing the comparison to the sov.



......as you can see, it is over 1500 meters in length.

i thought the infinty was 2000 meters?

Guest

Me too.

Anyway, the Scorpion is not the size of the Sovereign, yet in your picture it actually shows it's BIGGER than the Sovereign. Rescaling time.
