Anyone know who made this, and is there a SFC3 version?  This ship is so sweet!

Looks like a couple of peoples work messed together.

The hull aztec looks like WZs', the Light blue windows of P81 the Engines like WZ again along with the windows above the shuttle bay. The Deflector is the only thing you can go on to try to find out who did it. I have seen that deflector before but can not remember who did it. BTW both WZ and P81 have SFC 3 versions of the Sovereign.

Do you have a pick of the Deflector? (close up or the actually texture picture)
Could be Red Dragons version

I think the Deflector dish is from WZs Sovereign Class Prototype.  I do have other Sovereign Class ships for SFC3, but I want this one to be added to my collection.  I will try and find a new pic of the Dish.

It looks over all like WZs' textures... and the deflector is his.

The only thing is he doesn't do the windows in solid light blue like that, that is something P81 use to do. I do think think atheorhaven might be the person to ask though he did work on some of those Sovereigens taht are floating about.

Engine colours look alot like Moonrakers blue, or LBs' I wounder if it is a retextured version of one of theirs?
If you have a gamespy ID you can get moons from the Omega shipyards. I don't know if LBs is posted anywhere

If it is LBs' or moons then no SFC 3 version exists.

Heh, you guys aren't even in the ballpark on these guesses. That's CG's Nemesis Edition Sovereign recently released for Bridge Commander. I wouldn't count on ever getting a SFC version though. Besides, the polygon count is way up there, even by BC standards.

I was drooling all over that model while it was in a very long WIP stage over at BCU, I can't believe that so few have seen it! Even if I could my hands on the texture files alone I would be over the moon; there's so much that I can learn from them!

The ship looks like the movie, and flies like a dream. It does lag my BC a bit if too much is going on in the game, but it sure is  a joy to look at. The hardpoints are simply awesome, Phasers from all arcs possible, and the ability to fire photons and quantums at the same time.

Just download it and extract the files. You will also have to install the Bridge Commander Mod Packager, and tell it to extract to a custom directory, the the ship comes in BCMOD format.

I've been doing a lot of BC recently, and that is the most awesome ship ever to grace that game IMO.

I'm not real familiar with poly counts. At 5,500 polys, how does that compare to the average stock model?

Average stock model for SFC is under 1000 polys

The high end ones are generally under 3500 polys.

most stock models are 800-1500 polys

most fan models are 2000-4000 polys

this one at 5500 polys is big but not that big alot of p81 models are this high

So a model of this size is cumbersome, but technically feasible to use in SFC, granted folks have high-end machines, or at least a decent graphics card and plenty of RAM....

I do the same thing myself most of the time.

So let's get this beauty converted to SFC! Somebody, anybody!

I can speak with him and ask him if it is ok, but the textures and mesh will have to be greatly reduced, because the model is a total of 13,000 polys. I think it would make SFC choke.
