I'm using an ATI card and I'm not having any troubles. I'm confused as well? I hope that someone can figure it out.

SF2, I wasn't planning on releasing it. If you (or anyone else) want it, let me know.

Rod, I'd like your NCL version. Can you send me the mod. & brk.mod? chrystoff@yahoo.com

Well, DD, I like having a big missile launcher on its back. Is this going to be downloadable sometime?

3470 polys.. That's too rich for my blood. I'll have to see if I can lower that without any ill effects. LODs are also needed..

.. jeez man.. and the textures.. you can reduce the space taken by the BMPs by reducing their BPP from 24 to 8. It won't affect the model.

Otherwise, this thing is a great looking ship.

The torp launcher on the top is cool. It's better to be able to see the photons flash from the launchers, like you can when it's on top. Good idea, man.

FireSoul, while your modding the Chicago, can you try and attempt the following?

* - Lower Sensor dome does not match the curvature of the saucer and the forward light fixture is digging into the mesh.

* Adjustment of lighting testures to fit new hull geometry. I'd be happy if we could actually see the light for the top half of the saucer.

* - Make the ALL nacelles glow on both sides and add the 1651 registry to them.

* - Removal OR alteration of saucer line markings. I think that my paint bashing skills and word editing skills aren't to to fixing either.

* - Adujustment of the saucer textures so that they do not "warp" slightly on the underside.

I hope that isn't too much.

BTW, where can I get some swell blank 1024 P81 Ent textures? Destiny used some on his DeForrest Kelly, and I'd I think I can make the registriy in Word if the saucer were bigger (so that the red lines show up at the proper size relative to the lettering.)

My $.02 worth...

For the first two varients...

...the 1st would be the basic NCA...

Later refit to NHV

The 2nd version would make a fine NCD if the torp pod were changed to drones (the 4 B-racks; and could the rear of the pod be closed up?), and the top side torps (which this version dosn't have) be changed to drones as well (the 2 G-racks)...

**********

Of the 2nd two varients...

...if the 1st were given an extra phaser to the p/s mounts, it would make a nice NCC (the torps being moved to the front of the saucer to make room for the flag bridge accomodations).

As for the 4th varient with the full-sized 3rd nacelle, being the stickler that I am, I prefer the smaller nacelle. Although, this could be used as the basis for an NCF, which had 3 full-sizes nacelles.

**********

For a normal NCL, I would simply remove the 3rd nacelle from the first version (with the torps on top).

I would take Rod's version...

...add an extra phaser to the p/s mounts, and you have an instant CLC.

For DarkMatrix's version...

...if the 3rd nacelle was re-added, and the changes discussed above for the NCD were done, it would make a great NDC.

Lotsa possibilities here for all of the NCL/NCA varients from SFB.

"* Adjustment of lighting testures to fit new hull geometry. I'd be happy if we could actually see the light for the top half of the saucer."

Its all lit for me...lights and windows all glow in-game, plus registry number is highlighted, what more lighting is needed there? You could have emailed me a few days ago when i gave you the link to preview and SAID something before it got released?

Unless you are just planning to sit there looking at it zoomed-in via ModViewer, half that stuff doesnt show up in-game anyway - its not a JOAT submission rofl

Sheesh just build a new one fer chrissakes!

Mariner · « **Reply #35 on:** April 16, 2004, 07:04:17 pm »

Ah, alright. Never mind then, because I've already fixed the saucer lights and registries with word and paint.

I'll put up screenies ASAP.

Mariner · « **Reply #36 on:** April 16, 2004, 07:08:27 pm »

Umm, too bad Nightsoft is down, because I already knew where to get them. I was curious if there are any alternatives.
