Go for it, Same rules apply: no alterations of model, or textures. Illumination maps as need be.
I must see & approve the end result before posting a release ANYWHERE.
(shouldn't be a problem, youv'e done good in the past)  ;)

these models will more than likely need some extra hardpoints added to accomadate BC, just look at the textures for phaser banks, I know for sure the Reliant will need 2 more under the saucer, 1 for each side of pylon/rollbar (down low near the nacelles) & 1 more under the rear hull below the shuttle bays.

As for the rest use you best judgment

well,  I don't have the ability to alter textures beyond combining the rgb and lightmaps to a tga anyways. I'll need some kind of size comparison for the ktral and I think it's the hendrix class, Hardpoint however may come a bit slow as I am in the process of readying the tos supermod for BC as well as all of seraphs excelciors. Conversions I can do any time.

that part is easy. All yea do is switch textures to tga format, scale it and delete the hp's basicly.  Why, you  got a few items for me as well?

Will these help?  ;D

For the Hendrix, I used sfc3 stock ships
For K'Traawl, I used sfc2 stock ships

I sized these models to the stock ships for the version of sfc that it was made for, as you know, the sizes very from each version.

well, to be a bit crude, I'd say the ktral would be 5/6th the excels  length and the hendrix  looks to be halfway between  a  gal and a sov for length, so I'll use  ex astris' chart lengths,  it's not like anyone is going to be making a stack of them in BC anyways.

ack. does he mean sfc or SFA?  I dunno what format SFA uses...  I suppose it might be possible. Darkdrone would really be the person to ask there. as far as porting from sfc I can do that, I've done it many times with stock models too.
