Excellent news! Thank you Terradyhne, Nannerslug and company.

For those who want to learn more check out the Sha' Kurain section of the KA Website:

http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~klingonacademy/forum/view.php?pg=ShipInfoShakurian

The Sha' Kurian fleet defenitely needed to be tweaked up to standard size-wise and light mapped properly. In OP they make a great pirate race; I'm not sure how they will work in SFC3 with the limiting of the number and type of shuttles the game forces us to have.

Although making the Sha' Kurians the arch-enemy of the Tholians is a bit extreme when they already have the Klingons and the SFB Seltorians to look out for, lol.

Excellent news indeed and I look forward to getting my hands on the revised Alpha SCV and Long Fang CV...

Yup, as you can see on the DN, there's a bit of mismatching between the front and back with the illums that I got.. so I may see if I can color match them all, or else will generate some new ones based off the old ones. No matter what, I'll do the DN justice.

The others are mostly done as well, just want to make sure that the illums are (again) color matched on the other ships.

This, btw guys, is how one can work on over 200 ships in a career here.. just help out with working on a couple of mods.

KF, you need to think out side the box a little.. what if the shakurians were related to the selts? wait for RB's stuff to come out. its a long story of how we got there.. but i think you will like it.. i hope you are also seeing a trend for the mod.. we added the kessoks in 1.5. in 2.0 we are adding in the shakurians and maybe one other race if i can squeeze another model out of theorhaven - or somone else. but this is an uber secret race.. although i cannot take complete credit for the idea.. someone pm'd me the idea for it.

Don't forget, KF, the Selts were eventually beaten by the Klingons and Tholians and took off to the furtherest reaches of the Beta Quadrant to regroup, at least in my admittedly amateur interpretation of the SFC universe. Guess who they happened to run into out there...

I have no problem with your story theme at all. I just want the corrected and fixed Alpha and Long Tooth CVs

Always nice to get more cool non-Feds.

Now somebody get me those ships... please.

Qapla!

Won't be possible since SFC3 doesn't allow fighters. That was why we had to come up with a work around and come up with new loadouts for their ships.

SFC3 does allow fighters, in a manner of speaking.

It is possible to replace the shuttles with fighters- Pelican, KoraH, and many others use this as a method of bringing fighters to SFC3.

Just FYI

Yeah, but can you have multiple types of shuttlefighters on your ships?

NannerSlug · « **Reply #12 on:** July 19, 2004, 03:49:07 pm »

just say "no" to fighters in sfc3.

(and missiles and pfs.. heh)

I can work on these tonight guys for a bit... the problem has been RL and my wife wanting to spend time with me for some Godforsaken reason.

But I have a bit of time tonight to try and color match the textures or generate new ones...

atheorhaven · « **Reply #14 on:** July 20, 2004, 12:53:11 am »

All right, they have just gone over to Nanner for final approval and inspection... if they pass, then they'll fly over to KF and Terradyhne from there.

Otherwise, more tweaking here.. and then another pass..
