Open Part Mod voting poll.

[frizzank]

Voting poll to see who wins the open part mod.

The other one was messed up and you can not edit a poll after it has started so this one will replace that one.

Tell me if I missed anyone before I start a new poll

I don't see a pole. But I see lots of cylinders, which are like poles.

[Orionkermin]

Mine has the wrong dl link here and on the other threads OP. should be this mediafire one.

[blackheart612]

I vote for kip's and orionkermin's

[tygoo7]

I think you forgot Tiberion

[Mach_XXII]

I vote for Orionkermin

[Tiberion]

I think you forgot Tiberion

I wasn't entering this weeks, just playing along to add another example. I'll probably play next week.

Oh, and I probably should have said something earlier, but I liked Orionkerman's 1st version better I think.

[Helix935]

i voted for bahamutoD's

[Tommygun]

I vote for Orionkermin's part.

[frizzank]

Pole is actually up now... Wanted to make sure I had everything before starting since you cant edit it afterwords.

[The Destroyer]

I still vote for BahamutoD.

[tygoo7]

I vote StarVision because his is simple and stock-a-like.

It's hard to choose - they are all good entries.

[CaptainKipard]

The results of this poll are already different than the previous one.

[Ruedii]

It was a tough choice on my vote.

I ended up choosing Cpt. Kipard due to balancing blending well with stock, while maintaining excellent style.

The following ones were on my "short list" with reasons stated:

StarVision: Great stockalike design, and the bottom attachment nodes are a nice touch.

Themorris: Nice design, very stylish

Orionkermin: Pretty and shiny.

BahamutoD: Simple and understated, while maintaining detailed styling. Also, it fits on a probe.

I notice that by the votes my short list matches with other people's.

[StarVision]

"bottom attachment nodes are a nice touch."

Those are actually just radially attached engines on the flat side, but rotated to clip into the tank, but thanks for the kind words regardless. These are some great entries, and I'm excited for next weeks challenge!

[SpaceK531]

I really liked StarVision's tank: it has simple lines and a simple texture. Coincidentally/ironically/funnily enough, the pastel lines on the tank remind me of the textures used in TF2 for the spytech walls.

They're all great, to be sure, but have you guys even watched Snjo's video? I mean really? The innovation alone is a winning quality here. I implore you to go back and look at it if you just glossed over it.

Let me be clear though, these tanks are all beautiful, and are great, nay, incredible examples of what this mod community can do. Great job all of you, we are lucky to have this kinda talent donated to our experience with this game.

[Taki117]

GAH! So many choices! I like OrionKerman's one (But I'm kinda partial since I use his HGR parts and I hope it gets included) StarVision's is also cool with a very Stock-alike feel. I kinda would have liked to see TheMorris's in game, but I totally understand. I finally went with BahamutoD because I have a feeling the small size will be very useful.

[NathanKell]

Since everyone's explaining their votes now....while visually I find Themorris's or mordin86's the best, I can't help but vote for Snjo's amazing part+plugin combo. Simply awesome.

[CaptainKipard]

I'd be great if voters were a little more critical when posting their opinions

[Themorris]

(...)I kinda would have liked to see TheMorris's in game, but I totally understand.(...)

No problem

I don't know, I think there were ingame screenshots in the dev thread, though.

greetings,

Themorris

[NathanKell]

Constructive criticism, ok (and I probably should have taken the time to do/say this on the dev thread when it would have helped more...sorry).

Many of the tanks seem to have only solid color textures, or solid color plus some text; I'd like to have seen a bit more detail to break up the solids, i.e. weathering, dirt, paneling/nurnies/etc. from normal maps, and the like. An issue for some of the tanks was also a lack of modeled detail. This last point is less a technical one and more one of feel/taste, but it seemed like style was a bit of a mishmash; that is, for some parts (like StarVision's) going for a stock color scheme but without the stock weathering; some (like yours, Cpt. Kipard) going for a much more realistic look in terms of modeling the tubing, ductwork, etc., but still using a mostly-stock color scheme for the tanks themselves.
