Galactica 2.0 mod

Hi all,

I'm looking for someone to texture the Coalition fleet of fighters from Starlancer. I have all the models, the only pictures i have of the ships are the ones from the Starlancer section here on Lancers. I need someone whose done texturing before (no offense to anyone just starting, but i don't have the time to wait lol) so if anybody is interested then please get in touch by email or on our forums in the Galactica 2.0 section. Obviously full credit will be given in the credits of the mod.

what has galactica to do with starlancer? (just a question)

Because i have 17 BSG systems full of BSG stuff, plus it's meant as a general term as well. Galactica, Galacticum, the universe and so on...

And as to the Coalition ships, don't know of anyone whose textured them how they should be.

Swat,
I'm only after the fighters, the Alliance ones have been done for a long time now, seems silly that nobody has done the Coalition ones. If you feel the urge then let me know

doesnt sound silly coz the coalition ones have no own textures

texturing ships is not as nearly easy as it sounds.
I've found out from experience that to texture starlancer ships, I had to import them into cmp, re-sort the frameworks and regroup faces. Then after the pain staking effort of assigning new textures, they had to be re-exported with new cmp/mat/3db files.
I've done it. It isn't easy.
So, I decided to just work on my own creations.

Rankor,

Nobody is arguing the fact texturing ships isn't that easy, i'm fully aware of the magnitude of the task. If i could do this, believe me i'd do it myself, but it's an area of modding i've never bothered with because i'm not very good at it. This is the whole reason i'm asking for help with this as,

A: It hasn't been done
B: Would be good if it were done
C: A few of us have the models but not sure what to do with them.

Plus would be nice to have the full set if you know what i mean.
