Really boring I know... I did a retex... Dunno if anyone wants one, but here's a wee tease......... so to speak

If I get ANY interest I'll stick some more images up and I'll upload it so you can all have it.....

I like what youve done, especially the lightmaps.

one nitpick
It would be USS DeForest Kelley, not DeForest Kelley.

DestinyCalling · « **Reply #3 on:** January 27, 2004, 01:31:43 pm »

Good call on the USS thing... For some reason it didn't seem right.. Dunno why. It's all changable though. Anyway, back to business. I did this about 6 months ago. It's built from a P81 FCL model. I lopped of the rollbar and all the phaser hardpoints bar the upper and lower forward ones.. Kept the MDPC's though cos you need SOME weaponry. Chucked on a door or twelve and there you go. One thing I will say, the original bitmaps are 1024x1024 but the M6 viewer doesn't like big bitmaps so the screengrabs use 512 bitmaps... Anyway, there you go...

More images...

Oh, and I picked NCC-1920.... You win a mars bar if you can tell me why

I love this top shot of it...

One small suggestion, usually I've seen the Cadamaeus with the Starfleet blue circle behind it.. but I'll be honest and say that I like it better this way.

Just mentioning it for purists sake.

I'll be waiting for this one.. like this idea better than the golf ball idea of the Olympic.

Marauth · « **Reply #5 on:** January 27, 2004, 01:45:14 pm »

1920 was the year DeForest Kelley was born. Classy ship BTW though I'd have lost the rollbar phasers (MDPCs?) and left it with the forward bottom ones and the top left and right side phasers ala the TOS/SFB ships. Hospital ships really should be pretty defenceless IMO.

atheorhaven · « **Reply #6 on:** January 27, 2004, 01:47:43 pm »

1920.. would that've been when De was born?

Btw, he and his wife had the distinction of having one of the longest marriages in Hollywood history. All in all, he was a decent human being.

DestinyCalling · « **Reply #7 on:** January 27, 2004, 01:49:57 pm »

Congrats.. you win a mars bar (both of you)... MDPC's are a Mastercom thing (I think). I never did like the whole "Megaphaser" idea so calling them "Multi Directional Phaser Cannon" kinda sounds better... I have done two versions, this one and the same without the cannon but the saucer phaser banks are too near the doors so they went....

I could change the upper doors though... hmmm

Mariner · « **Reply #8 on:** January 27, 2004, 01:55:13 pm »

One could argue that the megaphaser mounts are actually AMD's.

I love this ship, neat concept. Could you make a "Phase 2" version, which would be a (mostly) retexture. The pennants would be the TOS ones, and so would the lettering. The only real different would be that the hull would be a TOS grey and the engines would be more similar to the Phase 2 Enterprise (which could be faked with an engine retexture, but new ones would be better, as the Phase 2 ones are smoother.)

DestinyCalling · « **Reply #9 on:** January 27, 2004, 02:14:26 pm »

And this another one... Though it's a Chandley mini retex... And its dark

Azel · « **Reply #10 on:** January 27, 2004, 02:32:35 pm »

very awesome stuff man!!!

Chrystoff · « **Reply #11 on:** January 27, 2004, 02:33:55 pm »

Great hospital ship! I hope you'll release it. It's been like a second Christmas around here lately!

Kaenyne · « **Reply #12 on:** January 27, 2004, 04:39:51 pm »

Yes!

Release 'em! They're both great looking ships!

One more to add to the FASA to SFC collection.

I love the Chandley Class as a HEAVY Cruiser in my corner of the Trek universe. FASA Trek was kind of whacked with its ship class designations. Although I can't think of ANY Trek game that is perfect, at least SFC lets us tailor the game as we see fit. I have a version USS Fife where I added two rear facing torpedo tubes to it as the FASA Trek ship stats indicated.

Please give me a link to these fine retextures.

As soon as I get my FTP sorted I'll upload them and post links...

Another view...

This one is a Rogue mini retex... I am planning to redo it using Khaliban's Connie bits... Should be nice

E_Look · « **Reply #15 on:** January 27, 2004, 06:15:11 pm »

My only complaint is about the green crosses on the underside of the hull. It looks too much like the WWII German war machine's emblems. Otherwise, it's a very nice job.

Makotokat · « **Reply #18 on:** January 27, 2004, 06:44:06 pm »

simply love it!

FireSoul · « **Reply #19 on:** January 27, 2004, 07:05:53 pm »

I'll use the hospital ship.. if you let me download it.

Is there a link?

Makotokat · « **Reply #21 on:** January 27, 2004, 08:27:55 pm »

Keep them, it's a good symbol!

Makotokat · « **Reply #22 on:** January 27, 2004, 08:31:12 pm »

Or you could putsolid green with a white inner border......

Magnum357 · « **Reply #23 on:** January 27, 2004, 09:45:00 pm »

Wow! Is that First shot from SFC2 or something? It looks amazing.

I like the retexturing you have made too. And using the Green Crosses is a nice touch in my opinion. If I recall, Medical officers use Green Tunics and slashes on their uniform right? It would make sense that Star Fleet would embelem its ships with Green Colors too also signify this. Nice touch.

DestinyCalling · « **Reply #24 on:** January 27, 2004, 09:55:47 pm »

The first shot comes right out of the M6 mod viewer/editor.. All you do is load up a model and hit "L", it then illumination maps it..... I did the same with the Chandley....

Kinda gives em a "deep space" look.....

DestinyCalling · « **Reply #25 on:** January 28, 2004, 08:48:16 am »

Have uploaded these now so feel free to d/l at your leisure.. I have created two zips, one with the 1024 textures and a second with the 512 textures.. Any feedback is appreciated....

Enjoy!!!

DestinyCalling · « **Reply #28 on:** January 28, 2004, 02:11:59 pm »

Hey that looks pretty fine to me... And a good idea for a larger size medical ship. As for the "Chandley", my bad, I got mixed up... The one I retex'd comes from Pataflafla, not Rogue... In fact Rogue doesn't have one...

Link to follow.....

And I have started the remodel using Khaliban's bits...

WIP's to follow in due course

Magnum357 · « **Reply #30 on:** January 28, 2004, 03:47:05 pm »

You know, I never was much of a Chandley fan, but after seeing some variants and a possible Hospital version of it, I'm wondering if the Chandley actually makes sense now. The Chandley has more internal volume then a Miranda, I really wonder if the Chandleys would be good for many different Variants much like the Mirandas are.

I came up with some theories why we hardly see Connies after the 2280's in Star Trek, maybe the Connies reached the limit too their designs for refit purposes. But the Mirandas, Chandleys, Bakers, Andors, Constellation and Larson Classes where much simpler too build then a Constitution and had much more options available too build variants. Also, they could use old Constitution ship yards too continue too build these other classes but at a cheaper price.

I'm just saying the more Variants I see of the Chandley, the more plausable I see the design.

Kaenyne · « **Reply #31 on:** January 28, 2004, 03:56:56 pm »

Excellent looking vessel, if I do say so myself!

And I think her name is touching.

I miss that man. He was (and really still is) one of my heroes.

Destiny Calling,
Awesome ship,I love the hospital ships,didn't Wicked Zombie create a DeForest Kelley,using an Excelsior platform?Perhaps that one would be cool to use for a hospital ship as well.It would have enough room for all the labs and support clinincs needed for a mobile hospital.Just a thought......anyway again great job!!!

jayvt3 · « **Reply #33 on:** January 29, 2004, 07:31:21 am »

Great minds do think alike

I was going to suggest that since a FH-CA, FH-LC, FH-NCL or even an FH-BCH would not have, by concept or doctrine, offensive weaponry. It would have, for the sake of crew, patient and vessel survivability, a adequate defensive array.
Other words AMDs and PhGs out the ying yang.
Great texture work though. Just D/L it and work ing up the specs for it now. Should have a fly by this afternoon.

Mariner · « **Reply #35 on:** January 30, 2004, 06:56:05 pm »

I just d/led the DeForest Kelley and It's Grade-A KICKASS work (ironic for a Hospital Ship

)

Anyway, I started looking at it in the viewer, and I just got an idea.

Could you possibly retexture and modify this to become a Commando CL? The extra shuttle ports would be perfect for launching assault shuttles, and I'm sure you can add more phasers to compensate. Care to give it a try?
