It'd be a good idea to seperate out the C5 from the rest.

And give some consideration to using Atrahais' C5 model for it (and other klingon DNs). I think Atra's Klingons are the best. The unfortunate thing is that we only have the D5, D5W, C7 and C5...though I think he also did a D7 and that FASA D-10 model.

I use Gow's models for the KCV (C8VK, B10V) and his KBB for the B10s and B11K.
I like P81s B'rel for the KFF and his K'vort for the KDD.
I can't say I really like any of the other Klingon models I've seen.

That's.. not a DN. That C5 model I want would look a lot like a normal DN. That C5 is a D7 with an added warp, which is incorrect.

For now, I'll make the installer copy the standard KDN into the separate directories mentioned above. They'll all look the same, but it will allow modders like you to plug in any model you like more.

Firesoul,

Please e-mail me so I can fire off the KDN of JrStandfast's I retextured if you still want it.

Qapla!

I just did an uninstall (after uninstalling OP+ 3) and clean install of OP last night and after the uninstall I noticed some model folders left over. I'm not sure if they were from your mod, but you may want to double check the uninstaller to see if any were missed.

Is there a rationale for putting custom model folders in the root of the Assets\Models folder? I have put all the custom model folders in the mod I'm working on in one subfolder under Assets\Models. Are people using the root of the Assets\Models folder to avoid swelling the size of the shiplist file? Is it detrimental to use one subfolder which increases the shiplist file size?

It makes the uninstall easier for me, I remove all the models added with my mod with one line in the NSIS uninstall section:
RMDir /r "$INSTDIR\Assets\Models\SFB_OP"

Was digging through my mounds of SFB SSD's, and I found what I was looking for.
The Superhawk in SFB carried 8 fighters. It has the A Sparrowhawk modules.

There was a single varient the Imperial Standard that carried the Carrier B modules which
are not represented in SFC.

It would be nicest thing to have this vessel carry 3 PF to replace the fighters.
Anyone else have an opinion.

This is by no means a complaint or any disatisfaction with the fabulous work FS has done for all of us, just an observation on the 'historical' source material.

Just having an "It seems to me" moment regarding X-weapons, which you are of course welcome to ignore. I like the way you've set an upgrade cycle between X1 and X2 ships, but it occurs to me that there's a logical predecessor to the X1 ships - Bases. Presumably before the miniaturization of these enhanced weapons (and shields, and powersources) is sufficient to put them on ships, these weapons would be available for defense outposts, base stations, and starbases. Or even Planetary Defense bases.

Just a thought - but wouldn't a generation X2 Starbase be a nasty thing to encounter in your shiny new Xcruiser - <G>

The following screenshot (you know it well) is of the Taldren stock PFF (LR: Light Raider).

I did the following this morning, trying to produce a passable PDBR (DBR: Double Light Raider). What do you think?

This is part of my first attempts at using 3ds (trial version).

PS. My GF thinks it's 2 ships humping each other. I think she has a dirty mind.

I think I've made my choices for the KDNs. Here they are.

1- Appearing as the KDN and KC6 models: (separated in case someone wants to use a different model for a KC6)
This will server for KC6, KC9, KC8 and refits.

2- For the KC5, where the SSD clearly shows a reduction in hull boxes and other systems in both rear and front

3- For the bastard ship that doesn't fit anywhere till I saw this misproportioned monster, the KB8:
(FYI, the SFB K-B8 is a B10 boom on a K-C8 rear hull. It was designed in case of economic problems. This is also why it has no ADDs in SFB, since the B10 boom and the C8 rear hull didn't house the ADDs: their other halves did.)

So far, the current KBB will be used for the B10, and the op+3.0 model ( KSBB ) will be used for the B11.

Comments?

Understand FS, no problem.

Putting E modules on it defeats the purpose of my suggestion.

Go ahead and keep it as is.

I also want to show you work in progress. I guess I have no talent at texturing, but I did at least come up with a good looking design. I have shared it with EmeraldEdge (who made the KTUG, the LTUG, the LLTT and the HLTT). Again, this is work in progress.
Say hello to my proposed htug:

I thought the DBR had two hulls side-by-side, not top-and-bottom?
