LS? as in Lord Schtupp? No, the original model is by WZ45 - retextures are by me.
The fighters have already been released.

LS' speciality is TOS. The TMP stuff is my area of psychosis :coolsmiley:

Nice to see FoaS messing around with my older ships - a lot of 'em could use some polish and tweaks, something he's got a knack for.

Alternate Colors... The PF Pack will be released within an hour or so




As you, Foas, from our testing lately, the poly count of models could really impact negatively the sfcop game engine in 6x6 missions, assuming we get it working which I think we will. What are the poly count of these models? For the sake of gameplay I hope each are less than 300.

The poly count is irrelvevent for gameplay needs (the only need to have the POLY count as opposed to the TRIANGLE count is for in-max considerations) - the highest triangle count is 425 - which is slightly higher than the top LoD of the Stock Fed Friagate.

Furthermore, triangle count isn't as severe as Texture considerations, which isn't that severe since this uses a single 1024x1024 (maybe 512x512, I can't recall) texture.

They should be fine for any computer made after 2004-ish. Furthermore, there are tricks to make the game speed up if it becomes a problem. ie: not using Anti-Aliasing features of the graphics cards.

Besides, you don't have to use my models, if you think it will slow you down...

For SFB purists who feel that a mirak ship should have to have three nacelles.

 ;) Okay, I am not a SFB/SFC Mirak fanatic but I'm having a very hard time with this Mirak design.

It looks too blocky and pre-TOS to me. Maybe it will look better with textures, I don't know. I know that I do not like the engines at all. These designs don't say to me "this fits in with FoAs' other ships". It seems out-of-place compared to your other ships/work.

I applaud the effort as Mirak ships are surely lacking in numbers but if I had your talent I'd start with a high poly version of the STOCK Taldren Mirak cruiser as seen on the cover of SFC: Empires at War and then branch out from that design. Nobody, that I'm aware of, has ever made a STOCK high poly Mirak cruiser.

Also if you look at the ST: TAS episode the Slaver Weapon you might see some additional ideas from the Kzinti ship designs. Their ships appeared to be saucers with spherical warp engines.

Having written this, please be mindful that I am still a fan of your work and am in no way trying to offend you. This is just my opinion. MONTY PYTHON voice: "Oh look a [Klingon] ART Critic!"

KF - take a look at the SFB kzinti frigate - you'll see why I went that way. For larger ships I was looking to go along with Talden's style with the Iron head.

Foas, something else to consider;

Supposedly This ship may have appeared in Enterprise's fifth season to show the Kzinti for a pre-TOS appearance. The artist was said to have been influenced by SFB. Personally I feel it fits in the lighter class category, perhaps as a DD.

No (I don't like the pink saucer ship in TAS)

I have that design in mind for the DD, I think

I've already decided to nix these nacelles.
