Gafy excelcior blanks
« on: April 14, 2005, 09:59:14 pm »
does anyone have the blanks for the excelcior  and and excel-b (and B cargo) variants?  I've searched my hd, can't find them anywhere so I may have deleted or hidden them away somewhere. If anyone has a copy, let me know.

I have some, although they are a lighter blue than what he used on the excelsior fleet.

Since the textures are exactly the same, you could just cover up the numbers and names by taking a lassoed portion form the blanks and mathcing them up to the texture that you want to use.  Very easily done.

I only have them in the normal blue that the Excelsior comes in. The FOAS fleet I never really made them for, I just use the orginal blanks I have and cut and paste the registries to the new ship I am doing then don't save the orginals as I close them. I could make them for you as it takes just a few minutes to do. Only bad part is i will not have time until Saturday to do them.

I thought those were just "wedges" cut out for the names, not whole saucers?

Yes those are wedges of names.  I'll zip up the blanks I have, and post the link where you can get them later tonight.  If you want them they'll be there.

Thanks dude. Also, what about the ent-B variant...doesn't that have a different saucer? I'd just need FOAS for that one I believe. I don't think I need a blank-B for any mackie bashes.

The saucer is modeled different, but the textures are the same.  Unless GAFY has a model of the Enterprise B that I haven't seen, but the one I have is the same texture.  Let me know if it fits.

The bottom texture for the B variant is slightly different. The B one uses the same texture with a few previously unused areas mapped for the saucer warp engines/secondary impulse engines.

Nope the top texture is the same one, there is no difference between the Excel and Excel B.

Ok, I found the bottom texture you were talking about, and updated the zip file.  The link is the same, but it might take a few hours for the update to take effect.  Maybe try it in two or three hours and makes sure the file size is over 5MB.  Anything less and it's still the old file.

It's still comming up as 4.89 megs and it's been over 3-4 hrs. Is anyone else getting a different file size?

Ok I fixed it now.   The file size is still 4.89, but it has the new texture in it.
