download/file.php?id=5055&mode=view just to comparing.

also, have you solved this problem? -> viewtopic.php?f=33&t=3992&start=45#p39732
bunker is too large in build menu and when it built it can't be damaged because center of a model is under terrain.

I looked into the solution chosen by wzgm, and it is a rather different solution than the one discussed in the link above. The wzgm approach is to add a few more vertices below the zero height axis for stretching, while keeping the rest of the model above it. This does not help with removing the stretching as such, which is necessary to update the Warzone drawing code to more modern techniques. Alas.

Thanks to Berg, all the original models have been converted to use TCmask.

thanks Berg

He has put quite of bit of work into this. Yay, Berg!

thnx berg!

Berg & crew are pushing the bar higher for what can be done with Warzone.
New models, animation, shields, and more...

For those that don't know,
Their site is: wzgm.net
The latest build is http://sourceforge.net/projects/wzgraph ... e/download (windows)
http://sourceforge.net/projects/wzgraph ... z/download (tarball)
They don't have anyone that can make mac builds though.

I like. cliff rocks look good too. what up with them ?

Here are archived files of the tower and texture tcmask included .
Cliff texture

Thanks for posting you files, Berg.

I do wanna run some Cliff-Rock Formation experiments with your Texture at my earliest opportunity.

I was looking at the old powergen and it is poorly done with a good many extra polygons that cant be seen = wasted poly
I remade it and set the texture co-ords correctly Thanks to safety0ff new tool WMIT model viewer and converter, I made an object file from the old model and loaded it into my editor and saw many errors in old default model.
The upgraded power gen is 130 polygon I removed the extra useless ones and added a little extra shape to doors, now this model is tcmask and using 124 polygons. This image shows the old not upgraded and the new with added door shape the doors are extended out further so they can be seen as example of added shape but this model is 6 less polygons then the original ---go figure wasted poly
Regards Berg

PS: this is in PIE3 format running in Buginators pre-3.0 branch

There is something wrong about the colours of the power generator. It has a "tinted green glass" effect over several surfaces that should be crisp gray.
