Even the one you sent me, that I modified? Is that okay?

ABSOLUTELY! You did a great job Romulanizing it. Please post a link soon. Anything I've retextured you are welcome to.

Done. Go check the Models forum.

Another ship spec error/question:

Is the Z-CMX given 2xPh1 by design, or is it an oversight, perhaps an automated arc replacement fix that accidentally replaced PhXes with Ph1s?

FireSoul · « **Reply #425 on:** August 07, 2003, 04:02:57 pm »

hm. most probably a copy-paste mistake related to the new arcs. Thanks.

I just got Atra-Hasis' permission to modify and use a ship of his.
Y'see, I'm replacing the D5 variants curently in use in OP+ 3.0 with these better models. Unfortunately, there was nothing to replace the D5H, so I made one using his D5 and a pod create by EmeraldEdge:

The D5W and KDR can be found on SFU. Swap the textures on both and you get a DWR and a plain D5. Add the above model, and you have the whole set. You may have to rename some files/directories to match my current settings. It should be safe to replace the 3.0 models with these as long as you don't touch the 5 textfiles.

Firesoul - I just wanted to bring to your attention (just in case you were unwae of it) that the new Gorn models (at least when I downloaded them) came with some alternate engine color files (red & purple as opposed to green). IMHO the green ones are the best looking, but when I was manually adding these ships, I used the different engine colored ships for varients. It triples your available gorn models! If you are interessted and don't have the color change files for the gorn stuff, let me know and I will get them to you.

Thank you. .. but I think I have almost enough gorns. The only probs I can think I may encounter are the weird DND and the tugs.

The HDD and CM looks like a good canditate for Tug modification.. if Thu11s lets me.

What about some other things, like the Hydran new command cruiser phasers? Were you planning to put out anything with some additional models that could squeeze in some of the corrections? If not, we'll have to take that into consideration.

FireSoul · « **Reply #432 on:** August 08, 2003, 12:18:58 pm »

If I release any form of correction to any of the textfiles, then it's a release thus not compatible to OP+ 3.0,. It's a new release. There is no transparent fix for these requests.

.. besides, a lot of people would be annoyed at me if I was to release now. It hasn't been 2 full weeks, and that was only about 2 weeks between v2.2 and v3.0. I recommend that you work with the current version as-is, with the understanding that there are a few simple errors.

jdmckinney · « **Reply #433 on:** August 08, 2003, 12:40:09 pm »

That's understandable -- I just wanted to know if you had any plans so I could offer alternatives to Jeff and the crew in case they felt a variation of OP+ might be worthwhile. Now we know we shouldn't wait for a new release.

What I've been doing today: I-TUG

My brain hurts, now.. Need rest.

I came across something odd in the stock OP specs. Taldren's Orion XDD's have a move cost of 1. All the other races' XDD's have a move cost of 0.66. One might say this is because of Engine Doubling; but why then don't the O-XFF or O-XCA have higher move costs than their counterparts?

FireSoul · « **Reply #436 on:** August 08, 2003, 09:06:00 pm »

That *is* odd. How many warps?

TarMinyatur · « **Reply #437 on:** August 08, 2003, 09:21:12 pm »

Orion XDD has 32 warp and 2 impulse. I'd say a move cost of 1 is too high. If you don't double engines, you really can't compete.

Fed XDD has 38 warp, 2 impulse, and 2 apr. Move cost is 0.66.

BPV's are about the same.

FireSoul · « **Reply #438 on:** August 08, 2003, 10:02:19 pm »

I'd say you're right.

TarMinyatur · « **Reply #439 on:** August 09, 2003, 12:36:27 am »

Well, I've changed the O-XDD to have a move cost of 0.67 in the SW 8.8-OP specs. It makes no sense rhat an X-ship would have the same energy curve as an ancient F-CA. Lowering it to 0.67 gives it respectable power, though it's not overwhelming. Some non-X-ships have 34 or more power with a 2/3rds movement cost (H-BAR, L-CWLP, H-TAR, H-APA).

Do you think you might change the OP+ specs in a similar fashion?
