Not sure exactly how the engine works. For now we're just playing around with some ideas. It's not going to be a big mod either, more of a personal project for a few people than a project intended for public release.

My word... you really have a knack for this. spaceships plus their low poly counterparts, Im impressed and I now know who to call if I want to get a spaceship made! I hope the game engine doesnt pose too many headaches. I do recommend you try out GIMP and its free normal Map plugin to generate or convert some good normal maps for your models in game engines (not bump maps).
Keep up the awesomeness!!

Hey Draise. I always use the Gimp for all my editing, texturing and other imagy needs. I do not have that normal map plugin though, do you have a link? Or should I just google it?. As for the spaceships, I generally don't make them upon request though all the ones I recently posted were for members of a small clan/modding group I'm in where I offered to do some designs for people so I could get some variety into my modeling and practice handling requests from other people.

Nice! The only suggestion I would have is if you were to use these for anything but games you would want to keep your faces in all quads, tris are not friends of most render engines. But for games, tris are fine as all are converted to tris anyway :) Really good modeling!

@3dfrog
Well I already have the high-poly models + renders so these models are only for use in the game engine. :)
