[WIP] New Dockable Models

[cbr]

You can select these 'limits' all by yourself, it's all about the available space and the shape of the areas,
you have a puzzle with pieces you yourself cut out of the model...

time to sleep

@cbr thanks for the messages, I will take a look at it as soon as I can (I will be super busy in the next weeks but let's see).

Today I had some free time so I managed to finish modelling the other station I was working on:

Looks good. Although this is my favourite (2nd one): https://s29.postimg.org/6s57stxpj/oolite_WIP-7.jpg

@ddeo Thank you so much. I hope to have these stations ready within a month, but I am quite busy with some real life issues right now

And here are some updates from a couple of days ago:

These are fantastic, I look forward very much to seeing them in game

[gsagostinho]

Thanks, Duggan! I am also really looking forward to making an OXP with these models!

My only problem is that I have almost no free time lately, I am just so busy with my university that I can't even keep up with small maintenance of my other OXPs, much less develop something larger. And this will be the case for at least the next few months

Bump!

These look absolutely spiffing!

Hi there! Unfortunately I never got to finish these stations and I've been away from Oolite for some years already. The models are basically done though, it's "just" a matter of adding textures to them and incorporating them into some interesting OXP. If anyone is interested in these models, I've uploaded them here: https://file.io/G6IuW5coRRyB

I'm happy for the community to make whatever use of them that they may find!

Hey GS - can you remember why you couldn't get the docking platform to work?

Thanks! How is the wonderful world of music? ... And how was the dreaded plague in your neck of the woods?

PS: when I click on your link, I just get a message saying "file deleted". I presume that it is another bonus of my using an AppleMac!

No - I get the same message.

Hey everyone! Thanks for the replies

Sorry about that, I thought that service would keep it online it indefinitely. I have re-uploaded it to my Dropbox now: https://www.dropbox.com/s/o9e60efrwbt53 ... s.zip?dl=0

Hmm, I don't remember exactly why that was the case. But take a look at Norby's replies at the beginning of the thread, apparently adding an invisible cube could solve it.

Hey, thanks for asking! I'm still working with music, I'm currently doing a PhD in composition (which is partially why I've been away from a lot of my open-source pet projects). Things are doing fine over here, just having a hectic time with work. I work mostly from home these days so thankfully the pandemic has affected very little of my day-to-day. I hope all is well with you too!
