| Since last month i work with a professional programmer on a blitzmax + minib3d subsim game. Here are the game models i made for the project. Hope you like it :-) http://www.blitzforum.de/upload/file.php?id=9098 |

| Nice. I especially like the textures, they aren't all that clean and that's what's making them realistic. Did you already try to render an occlusion map with gile[s] for example? It might add a bit more depth to your ships. Also maybe upload some closeups of the carrier, there's enough detail you're hiding from us ;) |
| ||
| Hi ecloo thanks. The ships are extrem lowpoly. The carrier has without planes 620 poly. A airplane has 230 polys. There are only details on the texture. I have made only 1 texture 512 x 512 pixel. These texture is for the complete fleet and all follow ships that i will made. I hope that will be easy for modding the game because many can made a mesh but many have problems to texture it. |

| They do look good. |
| ||
| I especially like the aircraft carrier. |
| ||
| I'm impressed by the water! Are those reflections real-time? Or just the same meshes below the water plane? Is that plain miniB3D, or is it using the extended version? |
| ||
| Looks great! |
| ||
| MiniB3D is just DX7 right? I ask because I'm starting to use Xors3D. Since MiniB3D is is BMax...can't it be upgraded to DX9 now? |
| ||
| MiniB3D is OpenGL, using the cross-platform GL functionality that BMax has. It's quite expansive (if you take the time to learn OGL and game engine programming, of course). |
| ||
| Hah yeah that's right, I actually knew that but forgot...(hence it's cross-platformedness!) Looks great though! |
| ||
| I wonder how long it would take to do a battle-ships type mini-game with that :) |
| ||
| _Skully: I thought the same when I saw those models. |
| ||
| _skully i didn't understand? |
| ||
| Battle Ship is a board game here in the US. I do not know if it is abundantly available in other countries. But it is a classic board game that has been around for 30 or more years and still survives today. I think you could make a great BattleShip game with those models as well. Mixed with a good AI and multi-player, you could probably sell it on the portals. |

 is the game when it first came out...  is a spin-off someone did |
| ||
| :) |
| ||
| ah thanks. No the game will be not like Battleships or in german called "Schiffe versenken". It is a mix of classic chess an the "panzer general" series. Btw. this thread was for a subsim action simulation, but the concept was changed to a 2D strategie game, that i made now with Xaron. |

| is the game when it first came out... Here is a photo of the original Battleship game that came out in 1934. It uses colored wooden pegs. I am in the process of restoring it. I actually have all of the pegs and the original manual and box for this game.Link removed as I was running out of space for photos. |
