As I cannot really remake maps in my current hardware conditions i have decided to take on modelling.
Hunter remake has been hinted to me as a simple newb job (since its not that complicated and its hard to make a better worse one anyway.

Keeping that in mind I managed to make this:



The concept is as follows: torpedo boat with torpedo case-like launcher on its back. As current hunter it will fire a barrage of 3 torpedos one after another.
The turret will be mounted on circular platform wich will turn with a turret.

This is extremly WIP but would just like to share it with you and hear some feedback for this as it is really my first model ever made.

"its hard to make a better one anyway"

You mean, hard to make a worse one anyway.

Your model looks good, but we cannot discern a turret at the moment.

It already looks quite good! The design looks more modern/ZK than the old one :)
The red window reminds me of the old Core AK, which is good. Making it a bit smoother-looking and adding textures could make this into a real nice model :)

BErankFlipstip it will look smoother in-game because of how Spring renders models. Red window is how most of the ships look anyhow (if you hadnt notice already).

I swear it hapopende the same to me when I bought my new pc. my old 10 years old XP pc never need repairs, my new one went back to repair 2 times in 1 month.

about this model I think that if it's implemented now as it is it will look better than current model

Take a look at cremuss's other ships for inspiration.





Note the clean lines and angles.

AUrankAdminSaktoth what is the magical number for the width of your images to make sure they display within the bounds of the ZK lobby default screen size?

How could orfelius have edited his post or image to prevent the image from extending out-of-screen?

I'm pretty sure there is scaling by default?

ZKL default browser is IE so you might be better off using an external one (under Settings, the very last setting).

the images here are 800x600, fixed width

i added max-width attribute to scale larger images to 100% witdth of outerbox (with link to open full size in new tab/screen), will be available when some core dev accepts pull an triggers site rebuild.

USrankAutoWar, if you don't want an image to be scaled down the magic number is 732px.
