It was used by Leia Organa in the original Star Wars film [a] and was the first vessel audiences saw when Star Wars premiered in 1977. Other CR90 Corellian corvettes, which share the Tantive IV 's design, appear in Return of the Jedi and in the Star Wars Expanded Universe 's books, comics, TV series, and games.
All convert a 4×4 block of pixels to a 64-bit or 128-bit quantity, resulting in compression ratios of 6:1 with 24-bit RGB input data or 4:1 with 32-bit RGBA input data. S3TC is a lossy compression algorithm, resulting in image quality degradation, an effect which is minimized by the ability to increase texture resolutions while maintaining the ...
Star Destroyers are capital ships in the fictional Star Wars universe. Star Destroyers were produced by Kuat Drive Yards, later Kuat-Entralla Engineering, and serve as "the signature vessel of the fleet" for the Galactic Empire, the First Order, and the Sith Eternal in numerous published works including film, television, novels, comics, and video games.
Originally, the Radiant VII was going to be sleek like most Old Republic ships depicted in the Star Wars prequel trilogy. However, Lucas suggested a design similar to the ships in the original trilogy; Doug Chiang and the Lucasfilm art department responded with a design similar to the Tantive IV model created for Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope.
Texture compression is a specialized form of image compression designed for storing texture maps in 3D computer graphics rendering systems. Unlike conventional image compression algorithms, texture compression algorithms are optimized for random access. Texture compression can be applied to reduce memory usage at runtime.
RZ-1 A-wings from Green Squadron participate in the climactic Battle of Endor depicted in Return of the Jedi (1983). At Endor, an A-wing piloted by Arvel Crynyd (Hilton McRae) [2] crashes into the bridge of the Super Star Destroyer Executor, resulting in the Executor crashing out of control into the second Death Star.
Used by Fantasy Flight Games' Star Wars: X-Wing Miniatures Game for their small and large ships. 1:250: 1.219 mm Used by Heller for model ships. 1:250 scale is commonly used with aircraft models - usually rather large and fairly pricey models - such as jumbo jet scale models. [7] 1:239: 1.275 mm Used by some model aircraft. 1:220: 1.385 mm
In 2016, Hot Wheels once again created a Star Wars-themed full-sized car, this time was a depiction of the X-wing (dubbed as the 'carship', a combination of 'starships' and 'cars') to coincide the release of the Star Wars Carships line. The car's design was said to be inspired by most of the open- wheeled race cars.
