Are there any good TMP F-BB models out there?
« on: June 27, 2008, 10:24:16 am »
I had one years ago, but lost it in the multiple Windows installes I've done since then.  I don't like the one in OP+ 4.  Looking for something simliar the the DN+ model from OP+ 4 with 4 engines.
Who'd thunk that Star-castling was the root of all evil . . .

You are thinking of his DN models, but none of them have four nacelles.  He does have a Carolina Class BB, but that is a two nacelled vessel.  Your best bet would be to try Battleclinic, I haven't checked it in a while but there has got to at least a few on that site and one that would be to your liking.

Incorrect.  WZ made a Mars Class long time ago, and then a Mars Refit.  Granted, he doesn't have the refit hosted anymore, but I still have it.  In fact, I used components from it to kitbash my early TMP Mars Class, which GAFY retextured. 

The Mars has always had 4 nacelles, just like the Fed BB that's being used currently in the OP+ shiplist and all OP camps.

The pen is truly mightier than the sword.  And considerably easier to write with.

In fact, here's a render WZ did of his Mars Refit. 

WZ, hope you don't mind me posting the link.

I have an older version from WZ. Not as nice as nice as the one in the pic, but it's fairly low poly (6184). Probably not the best version for rendering, but fine for game resolutions.

I know the one you're talking about.  It was released long before SFC3 was ever created, and the saucer textures had 5 twin phaser turrets both dorsal and ventral?

If that's the one you're talking about, I have that same one too, but ported for SFC3.  After a while, I wanted a better looking one, and that's why I bashed my own.

You're right I forgot about that one, it's a very nice ship.  I wonder why he doesn't host it anymore?

Your guess is as good as mine.

Mainly because it's an ugly ship that's taking up server space for the less-ugly ones...

Last I checked, the D2 guys haven't used that design for their Fed BB in a very long time.  But it's been a while since I've laid eyes on that ship.  Next time I do an SFC3 version of any ship, I've got to render to a PNG file.

Oh come on WZ!  The Mars was hardly an ugly ship!  IMHO there is not a ship that has been on your servers for the last four years that could even begin to be called ugly!  True some designs I don't care for as well as others, but they are all incredible!
