God I hate the Akula textures look nice and so do the rest of the ships but I have never liked that ship even when I first saw it as a tos ship. Damn sure dont care for it as a tmp style either. But Ill Probably get the pack any hoo, if only to see how you made the textures.

Very very nice indeed. MP knows where to reach me if the both of you wish new registries. Also, if I may make a suggestion. Address the mapping on the aft portion of the warp engines. The way they're mapped, the lightmaps don't illuminate the engine registries properly. MP and I have discussed this before. MP can address that mapping issue if you like.

nice. Just need to work on that tank, not up to par with the rest of the ship. Akula's make good fodder for brels anyways, something nice to shoot at

Yeah...you're just a copycat...

Ahem.

I do happen to like the Akula.

jayvt3 · « **Reply #9 on:** June 17, 2006, 08:32:04 pm »

well it's about time.

and the akula you did...don't really know if you could still call it that since it really is nothing like an akula other than the vertical nacelles.

Absolutely fantastic!

Can't wait to see the finished product.

All Hail the mighty ones of modelling

who bestoe such bounties upon us

Great work, looking forward to release.

ModelsPlease · « **Reply #14 on:** June 18, 2006, 01:32:45 am »

Thanks folks that my own Akula design. I found the original design lacking so I made my own and DTW worked his magic on the textures

. For you purists out there we did an original design one too so no worries.

Terradyhne · « **Reply #15 on:** June 18, 2006, 03:53:30 am »

the textures look good the most of the models are there in a dozen but the best is the interpretation of the Akula, the only thing i don't like on the Akula is the Miranda photonpod you should remove this fin or spoiler on the top of it, i doesn't make any sense on the Akulas photonbay

CyberTrekFan · « **Reply #16 on:** June 18, 2006, 12:49:06 pm »

Very nice looking realistic metal textures, I love it.

But now that a metal texture has been added I have a question, arent the ships painted? Or are they actually bare metal? In the real star trek world that is. cannon so to speak.

What fin ?

I really like the metal textures! And I've never seen that Akula before - it's great!

Looking forward to d/ling this pack

I reckon I'll have a little time this week to finish up the touch ups, so they should be ready for release sometime within the next 7-10 days. BTW...They are REAL metal textures. I source for them, were pictures I took of sheets of steel, aluminum and titanium from the metal shop my buddy works at.

P.S. Models Please...I'll be on msn most of next week diuing work hours. Hope you're doing better.
