I need a little variety.
Does anybody know where I can get a "GOOD" full mod download for either Babylon 5 or Battlestar Galactica that will work with SFC2 or Orion Pirates?? I have found a couple of links but no really good downloads.

MAN THIS FORUM HAS GONE STRAIGHT TO THE TOILET. I REMEMBER WHEN PEOPLE WHERE ALL OVER THIS FORUM. NOW YOU CAN'T EVEN GET ONE REPLY. A IN THE OLD DAYS A QUESTION LIKE THIS WOULD HAVE HAD AT LEAST 5 OR 6 REPLIES IN A DAY. WITH AT LEAST 25 VEIWS. THIS IS PATHETIC. WHERE DID EVERYBODY GO?????????//

Well this just proves my point. 48 hours 39 views and not one response. What a f***in joke this site has become. If I tried to go into SFC3 forums and ask the same question I'd get crap like "Hey man you're not supposed to be asking these questions in this forum, go to SFC2/OP forums for that."
Well I guess there's no reason to come back to these forums, these things are dead. Shame to there used to be some good input and responses to threads in here no matter what the question was. I remember when threads where getting replies every couple of minutes. Not anymore. Oh well time to find a new room.
What's that I hear in the background?? Sounds like taps playing.

Maybe no-one is posting because they don't have an answer to your question. Don't asume people are ignoring or just not interested.

True. I have seen something about such mods dating back to SFC I days. And I know a model of various TIEs, and star destroyers exist. And on the old SFCI forums a years long thread talked about how to do it (planet as a death star, etc) went on by very enthusiastic modders. There are ships models for the galactica, vipers, cylon raiders and base stars, even a colonial mover. And in my searches for models of those ships I encountered hits on web content which looked like a discussion between people participating in such a MOD (not necessarily of SFC) but some other game. The same applies to B5. But I cannot remember anything specific enough to be of help other than saying I think they are out there somewhere. When I answer a post I like to have something concrete to add not just that It's out there but a link or even a file to give.
All I did was do a web search using "Galactica" and other boolian modifiers such as "AND models" and slogged throught the first several hundred of 100s of thousands of hits on the subject. Some of the pages I went to also contained data on B5 mods in play.

As an aside, when someone goes negative as the original poster has done, it also tends to decrease my desire to respond. Morethan likely others feel the same way. But he is probably gone now so this info and advice is probably wasted.

Back when they were makeing the Big sci fi bash i created a whole fleet of kitbashes based on p 81's battle star

The Sci-fi Bashfest mod for OP includes 4 BattleStar Galactica models.

Darkness1- I remember ya...you never sent me those models, lol!

Send them, as i am working on Sci-fi Bashfest SFC3 which will be much better than the OP one as it will include UI's and hardpoint layouts as well as more starwars-ish weapons

I could use those models...send them over!

Dreadnought if you have SFC OP you can download sci-fi bashfest from Chris Jones' site. If you have SFC2, the OP models are compatible with SFC2 but the specs will not be, so you can download it for the models. Sci-fi Bashfest has Star Wars and BattleStar Galactica, and originally would have had Babylon 5 but the guy who was doing B5 had a HD crash. Theres only one problem with SFC OP- you'll need to have Chris Jones' TNG mod first. So if you don't have it...its gonna be a long download.

I may have something like this in my back-ups. They were in a "Sci-Fi" mod. The models were based on the Original Series. There were a couple Babalon 5 models too. I remember issues with the Viper model. Let me know if you still want them, and I will look.

Wow Bro...you have been resurecting some old threads from the dead......

I'd really like to see a simple BSG mod with the new models and at least a few run on missions to simulate the "33"....that would ROCK...

There is a current mission that just throws enemy fighters at you till you leave the map...turkey shoot.....a mod for this mission would also work...thowing some civilians you need to escort and bammo...BSG...ok...BSG "lite"

T' Kang · « **Reply #14 on:** March 03, 2005, 08:11:06 pm »

I have some old BSG models in the archives somewhere. I am trying to sort out 3D max software issues for SFC. My old Unix workstation and software were lost during the hurricanes last fall. I found a copy of 3D Max 4 on E-Bay starting at $500. Modeling for SFC is the only place I would use it. I need to use current versions for my part-time work.

The mission you described ("33") would be an easy script in SFC2. There was a similar training module I remember.

If you (or someone you know) can prove you are a student, you can buy a full version of MAX 6/7 for about that price.

Unfortunately Max 6 and 7 can not be used for SFC games as there are no plug-ins.. you have to use 3D Studio Max 3, 4 or 5 to edit *.mod files for SFC.
