Model Refinement and UV Mapping required

[swamismurf]

I\'ve had an idea for a collection of parts uniquely designed to eventually land (and take off from) Egar.

I have no skills with Blender, Maya, etc. I do have skills with Autocad and have cranked out a rough model in an attempt to illustrate what I want. I am looking for collaboration with a pro modeller on this project willing to convert my Autocad model into a KSP dae model. This means I will need assistance creating a UV map as well.

I\'ve attached the model as a DXF, along with an image.

PM me if anyone is interested.

Looks like an interesting parts pack. I lack the skill to make it but I would love to see it finished. I assume the 4 KX2 slots would be simple 1 meter attachment points

I\'m fairly sure that AutoCAD, like most Autodesk programs, has an inbuilt DAE exporter. But if you can\'t then if you export it in anything 3DS Max will read then I will help you out.

I don\'t think the game handles concave collision meshes. You may need to change the way you designed the lander tanks. Perhaps make them 4 tanks, in a quad arrangement. Each tank would then have a collision mesh shaped like a pie wedge or similar, and have no concave bits.

I concur. Implementation of a craft like this, as of now, would be wonky at best and have sub-optimal collision meshes, causing bits to stick into the ground or parts to hover above it. Sorry.

[Technical Ben]

I\'m not sure. I don\'t see many other problems with it really.

[Killerhurtz]

The collision mesh problem in itself is a large hinder. But otherwise yeah, it looks feasible.
