Jaw-dropping Titanic Model...

[saken]

A good friend of mine bought this model at TurboSquid for $30 and was kind enough to give it to me. He asked me if I got 3ds Max, otherwise it would be quite difficult to import the model and view it. To me it looks FAR more detailed than the one in Ship Simulator 2008 !

This model is in .max format, made in 3ds Max.

Would be wonderful if I could get this model into Virtual Sailor.

Wow, would it be possable to convert that into Virtual Sailor? i think it is, could somebody who "knows their stuff" please confirm this for us?

[Capt. Henderson]

You it would be easy as pie, using the 3DS format, but it isn't poly friendly.

[IRI5HJ4CK]

Ahh right, thanks for letting us know.

I got Deep Exploration 5.5 CAD Edition, so I could convert it.

[IRI5HJ4CK]

Wow! let us know when its available for download, won't you? assuming you will put it up for download.

[Capt. Henderson]

But Saken its 557,143 polys, can VS run support that ammount of detail?

[saken]

Hmm... hey wait, it's a .3ds file, no prob converting it into .x . But about the amount of detail... hmm... I don't know... has Virtual Sailor ever had 557,143 Polygons before?

Well, it can run the Dom's S.S. France, it would take a while to load, but its worth a try.

How many polys is that? It looks to be a good amount of polys on that one.
