Anybody convert this ship? I'm sure it was once, but this one seems upgraded with better textures and added torpedo launchers. I think this would be an excelent addition to the awesome Sovereign class fleet.

The link to the ships is here...

If anyone feels interested in converting well-detailed BC ships like the CG Sovereign, why not Scotchy's Galaxy? You can find it for BC here.

It's been done before with LC Amaral's Ambassador-class starship models.

If only I could, I would convert BC ships myself. :-D But there are some here in the community that have the skills and tools to convert the ships.

Patience on that Sov, folks. CG is coming out with a new and improved one optimized for lower-end machines and engines like SFC. Should, repeat should, be coming out soon. As for the Galaxy, that one's on the table, and I'd like to see that one in SFC.

Speaking of Sovereign, I downloaded this one but for some reason the textures dont work on. Both the SFC2 and SFC3 dont work. Any reason for it?

Model: Federation Sovereign Class mk2
Modeller: Howedar
Textures: Redragon (redragon@trekmods.com)
Conversion/Scaling: Darkdrone
Hard/Damage Points: Taldren/Darkdrone
Illumination: Redragon
Break Mod: Darkdrone

make sure they are they are at the correct resolutions (ie 256x256,512x256,512x512, 1024x512, ect) sfc don't like anything else

Darkseid · « **Reply #6 on:** January 30, 2005, 11:04:34 pm »

Well on these ones they're not all the same res. Some of them are 130x64, 782x573, 256x616, etc.

i knew my ears were burning for a reason. will add to the list , currently at my sisters house so i cant do anything til monday night.

oh on the textures not showing up yes they need to be in those sizes stated above, cause sfc wont read the texture sizes if they arnt right.

Is that the Sovereign from Trekmods? That model has never worked right. The hardpoints are screwed up (photons from phaser banks, phaser from photon launchers), and the textures are still screwed up. I know they tried to fix it once, and the model has potential, but I think they should start over with it.

It is a beautiful looking ship and its sad to hear this. I downloaded it from the Battleclinic. When I seen it I was like "Holy Crap that Rocks" lol. But if we are lucky this Sovereign from BC will be converted someday.

As for that other Sovie....it was a pain in the butt but I resized all the textures and got it working in my game.

I've got that one. I think that is the same one from BC but not the newest one. Because it lacks torpedo launchers and the arch shape on the shuttle bay isnt there. I actually moded the textures on that ship because its blue instead of tan or silver. Its not bad but there is always room for improvement. What sizes did you make your textures?

Sapharite · « **Reply #12 on:** January 31, 2005, 02:23:55 am »

Ok Manitoba please convert those two to SFC and I'll hardpoint, damagepoint and illuminate them

Sapharite · « **Reply #13 on:** January 31, 2005, 02:32:27 am »

There's another ship I would like to see converted from BC

This is Bajorna Assault ship

made by Hook

Each texture was different . Yeah there are alot of them but if ya go thru, one by one it only takes a few minutes to figure out what size they need to be.

CG did that one before Nemesis came out on DVD, so he didn't have all the intricate details down. CG Sov 1.0 has all those details, but I doubt it would work well with SFC2/3; it drags BC down to a halt on mid to low-range systems as it is. 2.0 will be optimized for playability on lower end systems and game engines like SFC. Chris Jones, creator of the Universe at War mod for SFC2 has gotten permission to convert it once it is released, so it should be within the next couple of weeks.

What about Scotchy's Galaxy-class model?

Rat Boy · « **Reply #17 on:** January 31, 2005, 12:34:47 pm »

Like I said, it's up for anyone to try. I'm surprised no one has, though.

Chris Johnson · « **Reply #18 on:** January 31, 2005, 02:13:17 pm »

Well then again, most people like designs that are just hot-rod-looking and if the Galaxy-class doesn't have that third nacelle and big gun, then the Sovereign-class would be most people's choice of ship, albeit not the case for my taste. *shrug*

Rat Boy · « **Reply #19 on:** January 31, 2005, 04:50:02 pm »

We could always see if somebody like Chris Jones or Dark Drone would like to take a crack at it.
