hey thanx man....I tried to import it into Max but it was giving me error....

did it originally had textures??

[king_tiger_666]

poseray doesn't look like it opens properly either...

it didn't have textures it says on max-realm

[mrwho]

yeah, i noticed in the preview that the model wasn't quite right; does it look alright in TG?

[dhavalmistry]

the model works ok in TG2 but the geometry is all messed up.....it looks more like abandoned spacestation

you can use it for far away shots since it doesnt have textures

Go download anim8or (www.anim8or.com).  Open the 3ds object in it, and export it as .obj.

doesnt work....gives me an error while opening...

"VertexN: Bad point index"

[gregsandor]

Its a bad model.  I downloaded it and got the same error message.  Find a different space station.

Thanx

I made this Station (I don't know if this thing look like a station for you) in Blender in less than 5 minutes with the discombobulator script, I know the station is far from perfect but with some tweaking you could made a very detailed one in Blender.

arg.. could someone please email Costaud's zip file to me. rapidshare doesn't work since my isp uses a transparent proxy i get a exceeded quota error....

feedback.raw@slingshot.co.nz

much thanks

@king tiger (which one Tiger I or Tiger II) just emailed the zip to you.

[king_tiger_666]

tiger II... 

I got the file too, thanks.


edit...

if this model doesn't look too good in a render you could always substitute it for a Borg sphere.. there are several models of that floating around on the interweb, or someone could try putting the texture from the borg sphere onto this model?...
