{WIP} KSP sized ASDS mod. Progress Update #1.

[Kerbal01]

I went looking for a 3D model of SpaceX's ASDS on the internet. I found a reddit thread with just such a model and the poster made it clear he is ok with people making a KSP mod out of it. Im going to try my hand at converting the model. Should be easy as he already has UV unwrapped and textured it, just needs a collision mesh I think. I am familiar with the theory of using Unity and have read the tutorials. Ill start work on Monday ( if my schools lab is open, if not later).

first question before i get started. using the .obj (in the reddit thread) if i put that in unitys assets folder, will it load fully textured, UV'd and with proper materials set up and just need a collision mesh?

Progress Update #1: Still not given access to computer lab, might have to think of a backup plan. Renders of the Model (from the Reddit Thread) have been added to the OP. Once I get unity set up I might reduce the numbers of junk on deck to reduce the poly count.

Since there's been no progress on this page, I though I'd just leave this right here....

Neat, was just going to post about that. We could offer two complementary ships, one with lower rez (yours) and a high rez version (the model I found) for people with different computers.
