This really isn’t that big of a contribution but I thought it was pretty cool. Basically all I did was remove the Starfleet insignia and added the Terran Empire one. Then I changed USS to ISS. Just thought I’d share. Maybe someone might want it or something.

Nice work!

I'd love to see this symbol on say the TMP Odyssey [sp?] by P81...

In the version of Galaxies at War That I am trying to play, P81's Excalibur and D2 Odyssey BB/kitbashes make up my Mirror TMP fleet.

Here are some more additions. What I'd really like to see is some yellow markings like the NX-01 Enterprise. But i'm not that good lol, I can only add Imperial Insignia.

Forgive me if my geekiness is offending anyone, but didn't the Terran Empire die out way before the time of the real universe's TNG?

Captain Pierce · « **Reply #5 on:** July 30, 2005, 08:37:54 pm »

Hey, who's to say there's only one "Mirror" Universe?

Considering that DS9 majorly screwed up the MU continuity (saying in their season 7 MU ep that the MU didn't have cloaking devices, when in fact they did in one of the earlier eps), there actually almost has to be now...

Darkseid · « **Reply #6 on:** July 30, 2005, 10:18:31 pm »

Well, my idea was that people from the mirror universe steel Transphasic torpedoes and start mass producing them. Once they do that they’re pretty much unstoppable. So once they start destroy Alliance facilities and eventually start to build ships from blueprints of our ships. I would like to have the Sovereign Class ISS Enterprise NCC-1701-A, (A because there wouldn’t have been an A unless you follow the SFC timeline), there first ship, but I was going to wait for the new CG Sovereign to come out. But anyways, I hope this is the Excalibur you were talking about KF. It wasn’t as easy as the Galaxy though because the textures weren’t as good. The ship itself is excellent, but someone should create more detailed textures.

I love the concept, but if I may offer a bit of advice? The Terran Empire insignia, on the ships, where they meet the red stripes, rotate the insignia 180 degrees. For some reason I think it would look more accurate, for these ships being post-TOS Terran Empire ships.

Personally I think the hull should be a darker shade of grey. A while ago, I created several Terran Empire retextures of TMP era starships (which I haven't released) and I made them all a darker shade of grey, had the Terran Empire ensignia oriented like the last pictures show, and gave the blue areas, like the warp engines and some patches on the hull, a reddish color.

Great Idea.

For the first few WIPS of the GALAXIES AT WAR Mod that Rod O' Neal, myself and others were working on I propsed that the Mirror Universe Imperials be more uniform in their ship designs and Darkdrone's kitbashed USS Odyssey fit in nicely to that plan. Your textures will enhance these models greatly:

P81's Excalibur should remain a CX

Ok, here are some frames from an animation that I made with them. I never released them because I never bothered getting permission from the original authors (except for the Okinawa, Akula, and Ulysses class ships since those are my models) since this was for my own personal use. The video file is slightly too large to post here, otherwise it would have been in the render thread a couple of months ago. I think that the Mirror Universe ships should Feel different rather than LOOK different, so the differences in these ships are small and subtle. Here is also a picture of some TOS Terran Empire retextures of Lord Schtupp's ships. If anyone is interested in them, I already have permission from Lord Schtupp to share these.

Mr_Tricorder · « **Reply #28 on:** August 01, 2005, 04:34:46 pm »

I made it as an intro video for a SFC3 mod that I made for my graphics class last semester. I made sure the Professor knew which ships or textures were mine and which were someone else's. If you PM me, I can email you the video. I made it with Windows Movie Maker (which I now hate with a passion). The video is not very good quality and the sound effects don't blend as well as I would like them too. I made a much cleaner version of this video with Adobe Premier, but the video file was rediculously huge and I had some problems with static when I had too many sounds playing at one time. Unfortunately, my professor is the only one who might still have a copy of that video file and I don't have Premier on my computer, so I can't readily make a new one.

Does anyone know of a good free video editing program that would allow me to create a video out of individual frames playing at 30 frames per second? That's how I got a really good quality video with Premier, but Windows Movie Maker doesn't play individual frames that fast. I had to render the video in 3ds max as a video file, which caused me to lose quality, in order to use Windows Movie Maker.

I could do that, is it posted at the Battleclinic? I did a search there for Resurrection and it didnt bring up any results. I like the Mirror Universe a lot. It does seem cooler than our universe. It's just kinda nice to see the heros be the villians for a change. I dont know about the Galaxy class textures. Those are a little harder to make changes to.

The Galaxy textures are beautiful, and shouldn't be changed, except to give them that Terran Empire feel. It's the other ships that I was talking about, such as the Reliant A and the Excalibur, those type ships. They need fresh new textures, not only for being Terran Empire ships, but also for being Federation ships.

And as for the Resurrection, no, none of the ships I have bashed to this point have been posted to battleclinic. They are currently posted over at www.sfc3files.com and also on the Outalance server. Downloading the Resurrection from Outalance is easier though, in my opinion anyway. Not as much content, and also they're stored in my own little section.

I myself dont have the ability to create new textures. I'm just messing with the colors on the old ones. I have made the illumination look better though. The textures for the ship are really nice, they just need to be higher res. Right now they are at 512x512. Someone who is really good at texturing should just raise the res. The Ressurection is actually a really good name for the, well, ressurection of the Terran Empire. I'm sure in the next few days I can make some Imperial textures for her. I have a book of Warships and a lot of the English ones have some good names for TE ships.

Warrior
Minotaur
Colossus
Victoria
Revenge
Invincible
Victorious
Illustrious
Indomitable
Courageous
Furious

Just to name a few lol. On the Galaxy, i'm sure I can eventually come up with some nice textures for her as well.

It's not a very large ship to begin with, just an FDX saucer with weapon pod etc. If you want I can run it through the ship edit(when ya find it) and alter it to an FFF weapon/system wise.

Klingon Fanatic · « **Reply #48 on:** August 03, 2005, 05:26:33 pm »

The Apache FDX heavy destroyer looks good in Imperial colors. It just needs a new registry number and ISS Apache added which I can't do. It doesn't really bother me that its the Araxes registry though.

A minor issue is that the LOD 2 and LOD 3 show the original textures. I fixed this on my copy by copying and resizing the corresponding new textures you did. The great thing about Battleclinic is you can edit/tweak the model and reupload it with no problem.

On a personal note, I prefer the alternating black/blue on the warp engines... a minor tweak to do on my part.

hope we're not talking about the p81 kitbashes as seen above as no kitbasher should be able to claim a bash as his own model or forbid further modifications to it unless specifically requested by the original modeler.

well if the original modeler has given open permission for kitbashing, the kitbasher cant make such claims or give such orders (although a kitbasher CAN claim a _DESIGN_ as his own but model parts, not).... however, sometimes the line is drawn in the water like in the case of the old knox1711 bashes of p81 ships where alot of the ship was remodeled but as you can see from the ships above, this is not the case right now. (but a kitbasher can control where he wants his works/designs to be kept , like me, my bashes, my site.

)

the final line being; theyre basic P81 kitbashes and he gave open permissions for modifications. the kitbasher in this case has no say in it.

The Apache FDX heavy destroyer looks good in Imperial colors. It just needs a new registry number and ISS Apache added which I can't do. It doesn't really bother me that its the Araxes registry though.

A minor issue is that the LOD 2 and LOD 3 show the original textures. I fixed this on my copy by copying and resizing the corresponding new textures you did. The great thing about Battleclinic is you can edit/tweak the model and reupload it with no problem.

On a personal note, I prefer the alternating black/blue on the warp engines... a minor tweak to do on my part.

I hope the problems here aren’t caused by my kitbashed ships. Because they really haven’t been changed except for the textures and the readme file still says P81 made them.

But anyways, on the Apache and stuff, they look great, (saves me some time doing them myself

), but the engines need to be modified too. You can see what I mean by the pics. If you want me to do it I can, no problem. But also, what ship does everyone want me to do next

?

The Odyssey FBB from the D2 pack should be the next one done because just about everyone of the Odyssey kitbashes uses the same texture set.

Qapla!

Alright, the Odyssey is done and posted at the Clinic. Now here is the ISS Resurrection for all to see. I will post her up at the Battle Clinic when Daihak approves.

I know that this is the mirror universe, but are you sure that you want to mirror the Earth image as well? You might want to look into fixing those Terran Empire symbols.

What do you mean? The Terran Empire insignia has always been a swoard going through the Earth. I made it black and yellow to resemble the one painted on the ISS Enterprise NX-01.

i think mrtricorder means that the earth is wrong in the insignia. it shows north and south america in the east while europe is shown in the west.

Those are sweet! Upload them to the Battleclinic, the Terran Empire section could always use some more

.

I also corrected the Earths to look right on the Resurrection.

Darkseid · « **Reply #70 on:** August 08, 2005, 03:11:18 am »

I posted the Imperial Starship Resurrection to the Battleclinic, I couldnt wait any longer lol. Now I need more ideas. What's next?

Centurus · « **Reply #71 on:** August 08, 2005, 07:43:09 am »

I love the changes to the ship, especially the yellow deflector. You could always update the warp textures using WZ's newest T.E. releases. In fact, the warp grille on the Resurrection was taken from WZ's Vanquisher, so you could always use the T.E. Vanquisher warp engine textures as replacements. :-D If you want, I can make a whole new set of registries for the I.S.S. Resurrection, new text color and everything. Just give the word. *good thing I saved the PSD files*

Centurus · « **Reply #72 on:** August 08, 2005, 07:44:14 am »

Also on a side note, you may want to ask WZ himself about the release of the I.S.S. Resurrection over at Battleclinic. It was his ships that I made the Resurrection out of.

Darkseid · « **Reply #73 on:** August 08, 2005, 01:01:49 pm »

Some new registries would be perfect. Maybe some new names to add so there can be a fleet. I like some of these Latin names.

Vespertilio
Eptesicus
Myotis
Barbastella
Artubeus
Tadarida
Macrotus
Antrozous
Nycteris
Molossus
Corynorhinus
Lasiurus

Those are all the names of the Batman Begins Soundtrack lol. I’ll also ask WZ if it’s a problem for the Resurrection to be posted on the Battleclinic.

Centurus · « **Reply #74 on:** August 08, 2005, 11:18:58 pm »

Give me ship names and corresponding registries, and I'll whip them up. I've been itching to try grafting the T.E. logo from one of WZ's ships. :-D

These sound good…

ISS Resurrection NCC – 1796
ISS Revenge NCC – 1797
ISS Victorious NCC – 1798
ISS Indomitable NCC – 1799

All those would be perfect for the Resurrection class. That would also be great if you could get a copy of the Insignia used on WZ’s ships. Mine are just makeshift ones made in Paint; they look nice but not professional.

Spartan, when you can, get in touch with me so we can finish that TE logo for the ship. Also want your input on the registry color, to see if changes need to be made. That way I can begin releasing that texture pack for the Resurrection fleet.
