Resources for 3d models etc

We should compile all these links and make it sticky.

Ben, I saw your pine needles submission and validated it.  If anyone has any more models, please feel free to submit them on Ashundar (as long as they're actually yours ).

Hmm, trouble is he's anonymous!!!!

[old_blaggard]

Fixed it.  He was marked as the owner but not as the author .

[old_blaggard]

Just so people know, we just added six new models over at Ashundar:

Again, if any of you are modellers, please feel free to submit your models.  They don't even have to be vegetation - other things you think might be useful in TG renders are just fine.

Hey old_blaggard-

You might need to test that Nautilus submarine object..when I render it, its all black

Or are textures not included? If so, my bad then

[king_tiger_666]

i see what you mean. the directory path for two textures is wrong. some link to the folder the obj is in, these four don't

C:\cws Folder\Meshes\Nautical\Nautilus\Obj\plating bump2.jpg
C:\cws Folder\Meshes\Nautical\Nautilus\Obj\steps_bump.jpg
C:\cws Folder\Meshes\Nautical\Nautilus\Obj\steps.jpg
C:\cws Folder\Meshes\Nautical\Nautilus\Obj\dark.jpg

heres a copy I've updated the links now it looks like this, maybe someone can update the zip file too?

Seems like the textures that you have remapped in the image above are not scaled.  See the read me file

-I needed to move 2 of the textures (plating.jpg scaled to 0.0181 and plating_Plain.jpg scaled to 0.5) to an Image Map shader to get the required scaling of the file. This also applies to the bump maps for these shading groups.

-When importing the object initially the 2 textures mentioned above will not import correctly the texture file will need to be re-pointed to the correct file and the diffues colour will need to be increased greater then 0.  (I assume this is a bug where TG2 is not reading the scale paramater (-s) correctly)

Heres my two cents worth.

Thanks for all of these resources, folks.

I have about 120 MB worth starwars models if anybody know any upload site??

I can upload it to rapidshare if thats ok with you guys....

[king_tiger_666]

if you are allowed to share the star wars models, www.fsphost.com has 250mb free unlimited traffic:D

[dhavalmistry]

I dont know if I am allowed to share or not....because I had them for long long time (about 2 years) and I dont even remember where I got them from...I downloaded them so I guess I can share them because at that time I was in no position of buying them....will post the link as soon as they are uploaded...
