Oh, I was going to take the night off to work on other modeling stuff. Hmmm... I'll think about doing it tonight. But I have a V-22 and an F-117 waiting for decals. What do, what to do...

Really good. I hadn't figured how to use meta to separate out and hide hull parts.
My work up on a Hiigy gunship is coming along better now although some bits seem to have disappeared in pepakura and pepa still insists on generating a lot of nasty little triangles..
Still, looking a damn site better than my v.1 attempt.

Superb!
I've just saved the tutorial onto my harddrive so I can refer to it without having to log on all the time...
Now. A daft question.....
Way back when I started on HW paper modelling and followed all the links to and from Relic's site and here, I had no problem using win.big to grab the files.
After a pc crash a few months back I lost sme data and have had to re-load win.big
For some reason now, all my homeworld files contain is saved game data and no ship data. And I can't remember what I did last time toi get ship data into the HW file so win.big could extract it. Any suggestions.

fructose! i have a fix for your little moduling problem.
like you sayed, create the module by selecting faces and moving them to a new object, but when creating the new faces for the modules to come togethor you need to bring up the object pannel and select the object your working on on that pannel. make sure the objects name is selected when your creating the face or it will be part of another module and turn out disconected. not even pepakura can fix it with the "join ajacent edes" function. if you cant figure out what i mean ill try to get a few screenies on what 2 do.
