[WIP] ZPAK 0.01 (stockalike parts FTW!)

[Lack]

Here's what I meant about the import settings:

It's just what comes up when you click on the model file once you've dumped it in Unity. Easy enough to do once you find it. Just moving the 'smoothing angle' bar along.

Bump map is a bit too strong, so I've thrown you in a weaker one. I'd play around with the material settings till you're happy with it. I've also included an emissive map. I'll PM you the files.

Importing to ksp might be one of the easiest part, I recon. Sometimes tedious though.

I really enjoy the Unity part, I normally end up constantly making revisions to the model once it's there. Could never get using the .blend file so you can edit on the fly to work though, probably the way I've got blender installed.

[blackheart612]

Did you make sure the default file opener of .blend is blender?

Ah that might be it, I've got one of the older versions installed as well.

[blackheart612]

Well, if that was it, I hope it works. Most of the time it is because unity will directly open it so it needs to be set by your OS that the default opener is blender.

Hmm, it doesn't want to distinguish between the two versions. I'll uninstall the older one, don't use it anymore.

Previously I was just importing with dae as well. That was hard.

Heh, yeah. It's certainly a tad time consuming.

Oh, and Zodiak, here's an example with the toned down bump map+specular (left, emissive turned off) and the diffuse+emissive on (right).

[blackheart612]

btw Zodiak, if you got problems with sketchup, let me know, maybe I could help. I know a thing or two in optimizing polys.

[ZodiaK]

ok, thanks

[ZodiaK]

got the files, thanks so much lack!

You know, a new two-person lander pod would be great!

(If that's ever something you plan on doing.)

[ZodiaK]

hmmm... I'll think about it..

[ZodiaK]

by the way, what kind of design? do you want LK flavor or apollo flavor, or my own secret sauce?

secret sauce! secret sauce!

There's enough american and russian mods already.

[ZodiaK]

ooh... okay... secret sauce...

[ZodiaK]

hey guys, I'm gonna need a bit of inspiration for the lander pod. any ideas?

(Convair, then Republic).

[ZodiaK]

I quite like this one.

[blackheart612]

ZodiaK, how'd sketchup come along?

[ZodiaK]

It's confusing.

It appears my copy doesn't have the smooth or the polygon tool. where are they?

[blackheart612]

Not even right click? Darn... Now I'm confused if it's just a plugin or not... If it is, check the warehouse, it's full of useful plugins
