SFB TMP Federation Fast Cruiser and Fast Carrier - done.
« on: October 05, 2004, 12:26:32 pm »
I'm releasing my just-completed SFB-TMP Federation Fast Cruiser. Some of you may not like the shape. I understand this. However, it doesn't change SFB's design which I have decided to go with anyways. I'm sure someone else can accomodate you with a different model more to your liking.

The good thing about keeping templates of your files is that sometimes you discover you have a variant by just switching the textures, and you don't even know it.

I didn't find it appropriate for what I was doing, sorry.

.. I never knew why people made the shape such a controversy. ;)

Because it's fugly. It's fairly simple. Oh BTW the CF wasn't quite as ugly as you have portrayed it, the back of the saucer isn't a straight line like the DNL it's curved like a normal connie. I'm sure you knew that though.
If I determine the enemy's disposition of forces while I have no perceptible form, I can concentrate my forces while the enemy is fragmented. The pinnacle of military deployment approaches the formless: if it is formless, then the deepest spy cannot discern it, nor the wise make plans against it.

I did not, however everything else I had pointed to a flat surface. It was also easier to do this way for TMP.

I didn't mind the 3.2,3.3 versions but I was wondering if you can use and change it with an CB or CVS+  hull and change it to CFS and delete this model ?It looks fine but the saucer I not used to I am sorry FireSoul.

Age, you can replace any model with whatever you prefer. You don't have to like what I like.
As for the old model.. welllll... ugh.

FS, what is so wrong with the saucer I like? The one I showed in your other thread? That flat end on this CF is plain ugly, and the textures you used are too busy for that kinda mesh. Its nasty. ::pukes::

Nothing's wrong with it. I just don't want it, personally. I made my own.

Nice mesh, looks good... ;)

Thing is, those textures leave a lot to be desired.  The fact that they're circular textures on a squared off section gives the entire saucer section a look of, say, being hit by a hedge-trimmer... :D

I'd recommend a squared-off retexture sorta like the patterns used on the Miranda-class rear ends...

There is one good thing I will say about this and that is the warp nacelles are blue on both sides

Enjoy. ;)

Shoot, I just noticed that.  Makes sense though considering it is "hot warp" and all that.   :thumbsup:

Easy with a bit of texture swapping around :D Got one somewhere with red glows on both sides and another with pink when i was experimenting about.

Hey FS. You want to use this texture instead? It is of the CAI Ticonderoga by p81, modified by atrahasis and hig hurtenflurst. I have a better texture on of my docking bay to match this texture. Actually, you already have that texture somewhere on one of your carrier models. Here's a cpl pics:




Oh, you also forgot to add the teal blue color to the underside of the saucer where it meets the Neck plylon. Was that intentional?
