Corellian Transport2 cockpit panel

[Ace Antilles]

I recently downloaded the latest update and was hugely impressed by the latest effects but was disappointed on starting a new campaign to still see the old Correlian transport cockpit panel still in use, though it was great to see some cockpit illumination on the rear panels.

I notice from another thread that 'sedenion' may rework the yt1300 and Otana cockpits at a later stage and I look forward to this.

I have done some work adapting my textures to the original mesh just so that I don't have to look at the old low res front panel textures in missions for now.

Originally I had changed the cockpit mesh with weird consequences as addressed in previous posts on this thread, but this time I kept the existing mesh so that there should not be any issues.

Here is the opt for you to try in the meantime and hopefully 'sedenion' can produce something better later:

I have included front side panels and rear door as well.
I would like to add illumination to the front panel, so if anybody can direct me to a tutorial or just give me some pointers it would be most appreciated.

Your timing is amazing. I am working on improvements to the cockpit this VERY moment

There has been a number of things going on with the YT but none are quite ready for release.
So I will just leave with this teaser for now

Wow! That looks amazing. We are obviously operating at the same frequency. Does that include an exterior re-texture and any idea on a release date?

There's a couple of improvements but not on the scale you might like.
But it will include flightgroup colours, working landing gear and ramp.

No release date right now as still some bugs to work out. Not soon though sadly

I'm considering doing an exterior re-texture using some images off the net. This is what I did today:



I will need to edit out the shadows, or maybe leave them, see how it pans out. I haven't tested it in game yet.

I was experimenting with cockpit lighting on my textures this morning with some weird results. Some areas are only partially illuminated .



My cockpit exterior surface and greeble texture wip.



I'm currently using high anti-aliasing and low sharpening settings to reduce shimmering on station objects so textures are a bit blurry.

Great job on cockpits. I really like the reduced colored lights too. In the past, various ship cockpits had way too many different colored lights--all around--like a lit up christmas tree. Distracting. These layouts look more realistic to film.

My cockpit panel texture is just an interim texture that I will use in the campaign until 'Ace' releases his work. I'm messing around with the Optech program which will hopefully fix the patchy illuminated areas. Whatever happens, I will upload whatever I've done as it will have some illumination and should look better than the old low res textures.

Just to be clear this isn't my project as such.

The opt work was done by Master Qui-Gon.
New textures were by Prime.
Ual002 has given some figure models.
I'm doing extra tidy up and adding finishing touches.

[rogeroger]

Okaay! Figured out the Optech illumination process, great tool. This is my final front panel texture rework. It's hard not to get carried away :



I will add my rear panel texture after some illumination work in gimp and the optech. This is more fun than I expected it to be.

edit: Still some cleaning up to do on the texture as I look at the screenie.

[rogeroger]

Absolutely bloody final front panel texture. I will hopefully complete the rear panel texture tomorrow.

[rogeroger]

This is what I have completed thus far.
Front panel reworked and illuminated
Front side panels reworked
Rear door reworked
I'm leaving the rear panel as it is. I may muck about with it later when I have time.

Minor change to the illuminated white button shapes.
