So in order to correct that.

With my own experiences in 3D modeling I have to say I'm kind of in awe at what he's attempting. It's a massive amount of work to construct even a bare bones 3D model, much less a detailed on.

I have no experience with it, but I'd certainly consider the task daunting - especially since he's trying to model interiors which have to fit within a predetermined exterior.

Depends on how he approaches it. From the looks of things he's using a set of blueprints as a guide. The only area you're likely to get into fuzzy territory on is the group of cabins right next to the exterior hull. I don't know about him but if it was me those cabins would be sliced off by the exterior hull and that would be that. Unless I wound up with some ridiculous shaped room, like less than a meter deep, I'd just go with it.

Well, you haven't missed much, trust me. I've been trying to salvage info on my two primary machines for two weeks. And I'm in
process of re-setting up the machines. 2.6TB of drivespace is nice to have, until you fill it up and have to restore it all.

At any rate, I'm the guy ;) And I should have my first new updates here in a bit :D

I'm watching with a lot of interest. All my 3D modeling has been for finite element analysis for work. Fun to see what you can do for just... well fun.

lol. Well, the career is finally moving forward again. I got max reinstalled, updated and configured and everything except my thief III stuff is loading. I have to troubleshoot why that isn't working; but, it isn't essential to this; so, I can move along unimpeded ;) BIG SIGH OF RELIEF!

And, Tyrr, I'm with you. Things are always more fun when it isn't "work".. lol. But I can imagine making a job of this as much as I do enjoy it. Can't wait to get back to texturing.
