#Space Shuttle Model wish
5 messages in this thread
Hi Charles,
with ACAD comes a shuttle.dwg (in the samples directory).
Wouldn't that be what you need?
Its fairly detailed with fuel scoop,boosters and launch platform.
If you have no access to ACAD I could send you a dxf file…
Bye Michael
Thanks for the information. I'm looking for the Orbiter portion especially, so
the whole pad drawing would contain that portion.
I don't have access to ACAD myself so I'd appreciate a dxf file. I am doing
reseach for our project but am not well versed in CAD. If you could e-mail me
the file, or if it is too big and needs to be send,
my address is:
Arte Bella, Inc.
11059 McCormick St.
No. Hollywood, CA 91601
Let me know if theer would be any costs we could cover for disc or mailing.
Thanks very much,
Charlie Carr
CHARLES,
Just in case you haven't obtained a decent mesh of the orbiter yet…
See message #149994 in the "My contest you hate" thread from JKJ to Dr. Pixel:
<<So here's my deal for you: my entry is the "long forgotton" model of the
space shuttle on the 3DS CD-ROM (geometry/clipanim/shuttle2.3ds – the one that
launches the JKJ satelite). They accidentally screwed up two of the maps in
the CD authoring process, so you can have the pleasure of "polishing" it as
necessary. <g> I did it a long time ago before I learned many clever things,
so it is not my best work. I already gave it away, so it's easy to do it
again.>>
I just tried to JKJ, but he's on a bidnes trip right now. I'm sure if he was
here, and knew you were looking, he'd direct you to the shuttle he contributed
to the WCT.
Get this orbiter mesh. It's very well done and has opening cargo bay doors, all
significant details, and good maps. You can use this model "as is" right out of
the box without any .DXF to .3DS from ACAD conversion fun. Try it, you'll like
it. …B.
P.S. Be sure to send thanks and compliments to JKJ at 71174,711
That's only a 2D drawing of the shuttle. Lots of people have made the mistake
of translating it to another format and wondering why the shuttle is flat,
after all, it looking 3D. 🙂
John,
The shuttle drawing that was 2D came with R10 and was COLUMBIA.DWG. There *is*
a 3D drawing of the shuttle, boosters, and launchpad called SHUTTLE.DWG that
comes with R12.
