Ok, age did say it was nice. So he's off the hook. Anyone else want to step into the ring? ::nervously eyes FuryofaSeraph coming over with a baseball bat:: On second thought... I have some retextures I need to do... 'scuse me... ::runs::

ROFL @ Dizzy, and also @ FOASs' 2-cent whore gag.

Fury, I can see (roughly) how you get the standard hull into that shape but do you know how to straighten out the textures? Because whenever I've tried I can't get them re-mapped properly, it always looks all crooked and I can't redraw all the lines on the saucer.

When you reapply them move the points after you get the general shape. First you cover the texture area with the full map. then you adjust the points (tips of the triangles) one at a time or in groups to strench or contract the areas. It will be slow work but it can be done, the only other option would be to morph a blank texture or half circle and then mirror it to cover both sides. then apply the new texture.

I never changed the mapping, what-so-ever. All i did was use the Affect-Region modifier.

Fury, you still working on this one? I like it better than FS's cuz it matches better with TOS version of it. And the textures are cleaner. Anyway, let me know whats up. ;)

I'm waiting for one of these as well 'cause I want to kitbash it to get the TOS version.. ;)

Been waiting for a decent looking fast cruiser for a bit.. (grin)..

*cough*Desty Nova's done a TOS one*cough*

And it's very good as a matter of fact, a bit on the colourful side but good nonetheless.

Not intending to hijack this thread.

Alec,
I'd like to see you retexture Desty's, actually. It's not that Desty's textures aren't good, they're just purposely very "retro SFB" looking. Something a bit more up to date would be nice to see.

Is it up for d/l? I'd love to try it with both ships and see how they both look completed.. :D

I'm a big believer in choices.. ;)

Actually I have a set more normal than that blue I normally use done, as well as updated engine textures. I can send them to you Alec or Fury if you wish and have a account large enough to hold them.

Sure thing.. if you want to send them my way, I'll PM you with an addy that should handle them.

Nice textures but a TNG delta shield upright instead of on the side.

I think the idea is to have the chevron point in the same direction as the ship

Otherwise nobody would know where the bow of the ship was

Actually don't care that much about accurracy. I can make them accurate but chose to do things my own way, which is why I usually use a blue instead of standard colours. Nope the symbol on the side was done for one reason only, it makes it easier to see when other ppl are using my work. Usually just checking to see if the credits are right other than that never really cared if some one else uses them.

Credits are important as at time I include other ppls work in them and they also need the proper credit as well.
