Topic: Looking for Recommendations for models

[Wilmot]

Hello, I recently reinstalled SFC 2: EAW and OP. I am not crazy about the F-BB or the excelsior being the F-BC, so I was looking through battleclinic and the forums the past few days. Today I grabbed the outalance and will deckard tmp refit constitution, and was getting back on just now to get Gotafarmyet's TMP Connie retexture and his TMP Refit of the SFB F-BB as well as another Connie retexture. Only to find that the community dock had been removed today. Does anyone know if gotafarmyet maintains a website or alternate download location.

Also does anyone have any recommendations for new models or retextures? I like the TMP aesthetic, but some more detailed models than stock would be nice. Also any F-BBs or F-BCs that are TMP refits of the SFB variants that you could point me to would be nice. Also, is ship edit still maintained? I am having an issue with not being able to select a ship ui background. I have not really ever used mods for SFC or even played multiplayer, so I don't have a clue what is still out there at this late date and was hoping you would have suggestions.

I hope you don't mind me posting here, but this is the modeling forum and it says that advice goes here.

Looks like I am in luck, google revealed this thread: http://www.dynaverse.net/forum/index.php/topic,163393933.0.html, which still has working pictures. I think I would prefer the rear shuttle bay one, but either or both would be good. And I realize that beggars can't be choosers, so I will of course take whatever I can get.

With regard to the F-BC, I just don't like the Excelsior, the engineering hull looks too long with it stretched so thin at the rear. And while I think Taldren's work on the Yamato BB was decent, I thought the original SFB BB with a TMP Era Refit Style would be better looking. Since I was going to go with a traditional SFB Ares class BB, I thought why not go with a SFB style F-BC with appropriate TMP Era Refitting to make it match the rest. I like the slightly larger federation cruiser with engines on horizontal or 45 degree pylons look. Examples:

Thanks for your help.

Thanks, I think I found a similiar ship or a retexture of that F-BB model on Fileplanet's SFC3 models storage. I have an idea for what I am looking for in a F-BCH, so I might try to sketch up something so I have a design. Then I might throw it out there in case anyone else likes it, if not then I have wanted to teach myself Blender for a while and it might make a nice project.
