These are ships DarkMatrix has been working on that are based on physical models.



Here's a fine Klingon Academy custom made pirate ship by Kt'Hyla that he has given his OK to convert from KA to SFC. More background material may be found here:

This is the rear veiw:



Its nice to see a non-capital ship for the Orions.

Here's another John Payne kitbash Darkdrone has brought to life:



At the present time she needs registries, which I believe The DuctTapeWonder is working on (his site is down?) but if there is enough interest I can put this up at SFU or STMODDIRECTORY.

John Payne's site and information on the command and control ship USS Alacrity may be found here:

Qapla!

Man I just went that that KA site and was blown away!

Those ships are awesome!

To whomever created 'em, please give permission for somebody over here on the SFC forums to covert 'em!

Unless somebody is already way ahead of me!

The USS Alacrity is up at SFU. You need to do a search for her.

WZ45 has also pointed out a possible mesh problem with the Orion Sortrek.

LOL is the Jolly Roger insignia on that pirate ship not a human skull but a Grey's? That's hilarious! Probably appropriate too.

WZ45 may have adjusted that. If not, I'll ask DarkMatrix to have a look. I've been working all day so I haven't had time to put this in game to play it.

Qapla!

The Sortrek is now flying in the right direction thanks to DarkMatrix.. I want to double check with the original author before releasing this, he should get a copy naturally.

Qapla!

Well, I needed to create some blanks for this FDN texture for future projects anyways, so I did up some for the Alacrity.

Just uploaded it over at SFU, and it'll come up in the same search when you search for "alacrity"

Some changes to the original textures include:
-changed any existing registry numbers (FDN4 comes to mind) to NCC-2371
-changed the registries on the nacelles to be upright instead of upside down
-changed the "Repulse" name on the back of the secondary hull to ALACRITY
-changed the side of the hull registry name to "STARSHIP U.S.S. ALACRITY   UNITED FEDERATION OF PLANETS"

Added:
-Registry number and name to the upper saucer
-Registry number for the lower saucer

Just to explain, what I usually do to cut down on time for projects is create blank textures that have the registries placed in the right position and with the right effects and fonts, all ready to go.  Then, when I need a new texture for a ship that uses that texture, all I have to do is open a .PSP file, double click on the registry, change the name, and then change the registry number.  Super easy, and lets me concentrate on other details with the project.  

So now, there's a set of registries for this ship, and I have a new set of blanks for the FDN.

Thanks for the registries. I am currently using this ship as my SCS. What slot in the shiplist are most people using for this one?

The Alacrity (w/blank textures) and the Orion Pirate Du?Rach Class Frigate are up at SFU:

props to you guys for putting these out! Funny, I have/had been looking for anything new on this thread.... it never showed up with any new responses in red paretheses.... so I looked it up, and found three that I hadn't seen yet- why would that happen?
