Come Get Some!

Please note, some of the following were already released by other people, i am not taking credit for them, i have merely fixed up and tweaked part of the mesh or textures (For example, made the center warp nacelle of P81's Star League glow on both sides, fixed a slight clipping problem on the pylon etc), added or changed hardpoints and LODs and so on, others are original kitbashes (if such a description exists lol) by myself. Full Credits and Info are in the zips.

All these ships bar the Star League have the Ascension name and registry, i purposely left it this way as i am absolutely crap with textures, and thought i would leave it to more capable hands to rename/reregister them. As far as i know, there are no problems with these ships, they all worked fine for me in-game, im kinda rushing them out a bit as i have a seriously busy few weeks coming up, so apologies if you get any probs. Enjoy!

not bad its nice to see some old connie bashes brought back to life any other ships planed i would love to see some miranda and souyz maybe even an akula or 2 and of course other race ships from the same era

Hey Wolfsglen, can you try your hand at the Entente-Class (aka Federation refit) from Brad's SSTCSMUA? It seems to share more in common with it's predecessor than the P81 Star League, which always had a badly formed hull IMO.

http://www.sub-odeon.com/stsstcsmua/federation/federation_refit.html

But, there's also another minor request. Is it possible for you to "graft" the saucer of Lord Schtupp's Federation onto the Entente once she's done and refit it? Although the Enterprise saucer was larger than the Conny's, the original Federation had a much larger saucer than either! It does not make sense for such a vital conponent to be downsized, because they would then lose much space for weapons.

Also, are you interested in making the Coeur De Lion on John Payne's site? It's the perfect TMP battleship, better than the Excelsior even!

mmmm, megaphasers

Very nice. Very, very nice. I am particlarly happy about that Ascension. For some reason I like it for the F-DNL and the Ascension made from early P81 parts was a little defective. This should be the perfect solution for all that texture tweaking that wasn't really fixing that one. Thanks for doing these and I, for one, will be looking forward to these.

DonKarnage · « **Reply #4 on:** June 07, 2004, 08:31:49 pm »

cool ship, where can i get them?

Marauth · « **Reply #5 on:** June 07, 2004, 09:03:57 pm »

Only one Ascension has been made from P81 parts to my knowledge and that there is so obviously it, but tweaked as the author said. I remember I had problems with backwards registries on on nacelle, can't think of anything else wrong with it.

Wolfsglen · « **Reply #6 on:** June 08, 2004, 05:39:11 am »

Thanks guys, yes the backward registries was one of the things i fixed on them, most of them still say "Ascension" even on non-Ascension ships, but i thought i would leave the actual registrys/saucer names and fonts etc to someone much better at it. All will have LODs for SFC:OP too, now that i figured out how to do em

Otherwise it was mesh fixing and tweaks and slight texture changes on the existing ships made by others.

Mariner, i will certainly take a look, they would make nice additions and would be an interesting project for me next

If you have any tweaks or custom changes in mind for them drop me a PM or catch me on MSN if you see me there.

Release should be this weekend once i get the hardpoints done (urgh)

And just a sneaky preview for the future, a weird (and unfinished) Oriskany-based Space Control Ship:

Very nice birds!

The very on. It was a starship I had been tinkering with to see how good it could be. The main thing is that the warp nacelles didn't come out very well. That and a number of other nitpicky things when you look closely at it. It still looks decent when played, though. I was planning on learning to kitbash on this particular model as it is compatible with P81's Hatfield DN. Between those two models is everything you need to make a new improved Ascension. I still might do so as a learning exercise but Wolfsglen's looks just fabulous and will undoubtably be the model of choice for the Ascension.

Kaenyne · « **Reply #14 on:** June 08, 2004, 01:54:00 pm »

Not to get OT, but was there an "updated" Bonaventure II still on your plate?

Wolfsglen · « **Reply #15 on:** June 08, 2004, 02:33:21 pm »

Bonaventure is all finished and is circulating with at least one person here

Was planning on getting some webspace soon and putting her up with the other bashes and hacks i have made, but if its in demand i can upload her someplace for a bit.

Kaenyne · « **Reply #16 on:** June 08, 2004, 02:36:56 pm »

Okey Dokey. Just checking.

Marauth · « **Reply #18 on:** June 08, 2004, 03:53:42 pm »

That's a big torp tube, it's a doubled-up one from P81's Star League by the looks of it.

Rhaz · « **Reply #20 on:** June 08, 2004, 04:35:13 pm »

Very nice models. I like the Oriskany-based Space Control Ship.

I can't wait to d//l them all!

Marauth · « **Reply #21 on:** June 08, 2004, 04:53:50 pm »

BTW are you using my Oriskany for the secondary hull? I modified the textures to fit properly and such, can't tell from that pic if it's my one or not, but the textures seem to fit, I was called The Vampire Lestat when I made it...

DonKarnage · « **Reply #22 on:** June 08, 2004, 05:01:50 pm »

i made a kitbash for a gsc but it need some tuning, i hade a sensor dish and the bard (mega phaser and torpedo) from a miranda class but the sensor pod is a little on the way and if i place it on the segondary hull it will be in the way of the other torpedo tube, and i have a few other ship that need a break model and to be show to every one. and i made a spacial klingon D7 with the roll bar (mega phaser and torpedo tube), look cool

its adding firepower to a klingon ship

ModelsPlease · « **Reply #25 on:** June 09, 2004, 05:05:36 am »

Did you ever finishing bashing the ship I requested sir ?

Marauth · « **Reply #27 on:** June 09, 2004, 09:22:01 am »

Now that you mention it those pics do sort of remind me of ADB's new version of the F-SCS. The mini looks hideous, being just the old flatbed CVA with a connie style dorsal separating the saucer from the sec-hull and a third nacelle plonked on top Federation class style. The Oriskany is a much better base to build from in this case as the secondary hull is not so disproportionate to the saucer.

Wolfsglen · « **Reply #28 on:** June 10, 2004, 04:57:11 am »

If you guys are interested, i will work on that SCS-based design after i finish the Dreads, i wasnt serious about finishing it before, but i will work on it if i have Marauth's permission for the Oriskany parts.

Wolfsglen · « **Reply #30 on:** June 10, 2004, 06:08:29 pm »

*SHAMELESS BUMP*

Wolfsglen · « **Reply #33 on:** June 10, 2004, 07:50:24 pm »

Rofl now im intrigued

And thank you for permission, much appreciated.

I'll see if i can get the SCS done by saturday before my hectic week kicks in.

Marauth · « **Reply #34 on:** June 10, 2004, 08:08:49 pm »

I wouldn't worry too much as it uses Wicked Zombi's parts which are arguably for high-end machines, I've got several ships that I'm sitting on ATM.

Wolfsglen · « **Reply #35 on:** June 11, 2004, 03:42:03 pm »

SCS Added and Available for Download also, for those who want it.

FireSoul · « **Reply #38 on:** June 11, 2004, 04:11:36 pm »

ah. thank you.

Klingon Fanatic · « **Reply #39 on:** June 11, 2004, 04:56:33 pm »

The Alexander class is my favorite FDN. DarkMatrix did a great job with it overall. This is the second version he made.

IIRC the problem with the TMP USS Federation (not P81's 'custom' Federation or his take on Franz Joseph's USS Star League) and USS Ascension was that the third warp engine strut was not 100% accurate, the neck structure supporting the warp pylon was too small compared to the diagram. [See Ascension or Federation listing at www.shipschematics.net]

Now, if we can get the retextured USS Churchill's LOD textures to MATCH in game when veiwed from a distance I'll be very happy with my Federation fleet. That is available at:

http://www.the-tcs.net/dldir/pafiledb.php?action=file&id=141

BTW: I've never thought of the Churchill as a carrier, I have always thought of it as the replacement class for the Excelsior as a result of the political fallout over the failed Transwarp drive... I digress about my alternate Trek Universe...

Now the Holy grail for us non-federation fans is getting Thulls' Romulan Sparrowhawk and Captain KoraH's Neutral Zone Cormorant [think STOCK OP RBC with Thulls Romulan engines] with Ganymad's Romulan textures on them. Its beyond me as I've been trying for months, LOL.

Qapla!

I could barely contain myself having to sit a work knowing that I could be home D/Ling these beauties. Very, very, very, nice models!!!

ModelsPlease · « **Reply #42 on:** June 11, 2004, 11:48:50 pm »

You know KF I had very similar thoughts about the Churchill and her role.I'm not keen on her as a carrier.As for these ships,thanks Wolfsglen.Great stuff. So how did you do on my Elkins request sir? Been waiting on an update for awhile.
