PS You meam to tell me no one has a Runabout thats good, lol yeah ok

I checked my archive and found the model of which you speak. How do I know? It's missing the same textures. It will take a texture application to fix it. Sorry, wished I could fix you up. Jeff Wallace's Fed Amazon CL and Atrahasis's Sherman freighter are another two that seem to have a couple of missing textures. And the Amazon would make a killer frigate if it were not for that.    

[nx_adam_1701]

Well thanks anyways, someone has to have these textures or a different model, in time hopefully both of our ships will have there bulkheads

Just to be clear. The model itself is defective. It probably didn't convert right when being converted to the mod format, I guess, and it wasn't caught. For what it is worth, there is a Danube at Cleeve's Staryards.

Well, Adam, I'm not at all sure anyone has these textures.  Because I inquired into Jeff Wallace's Amazon some time ago and it turns out it is exactly as Rogue says.  It's been that way for a long time.  Knowing a bit about this forum in general, if one guy had half a texture, it would have been linked or e-mailed and posted about here... and someone else would have voluntarily fixed it, but alas, it hasn't been done, really.  Don't let this thread disappear, then, Adam.  Someone with the skill and the software might just step up and "patch" the holes in these ships.  From my experience in these forums, it'll probably get done; these are generally cool folk.  This shows you about the people in this forum.

Rogue, are you sure about Atra's Sherman?  I'll go look at my copy.  Maybe I'm grossly blind, but I don't think I've ever noticed a texture error in it like in the Amazon.

Well your absolutely rite, the best thing is to keep this thread alive, thanks

E_Look, Concerning Atra's Sherman. I could be mistaken as the areas underneath could be intentional. It certainly doesn't stop me from using it. However I saved the poster of it from Atra's old site and it has that same vivid white structures on the bottom. (I eventualy learned to do that to be able to know what was in the zip) That's how I know it is charactoristic of the model.

I've got the software but not the skill to fix it. Perhaps, someday, I'll take a shot at it. (I've been deeply involved in a complete SFB model set that has taken months to compile. Many custom paint jobs). BTW, If anyone needs a Klingon KCL or Fed light tug that works with FD13 paint sceme, let me know. And I agree with you about the Amazon. It would be a Fed FF for me if it wasn't for the missing textures.

Besides, this stuff is important. How else are we supposed to indulge our obsessive desire to mod this game to our hearts desire. For Klingon Fanatic, it's FASA. For me, it is a SFB model set and specs that are to die for.    I wished I could burn a copy for anyone who wanted it. It is pretty comprehensive. I'm embarrased by the hundereds of hours invested in making it just so. I kid you not.

The SFC's are the only electronic games I've ever put so much time and effort into.  I mean after a HD crash, I'm currently working on restoring my TOS, pre-TOS, modded TMP, and TNG eras in SFC1, EAW, and OP (SFC3 won't go on my primitive old desktop calculator) and haven't even really finished the SFC1 set yet!  We don't have a dog, but I know the insides of a doghouse well.  My wife thinks this is all insane.  I have no allies: my kids like StarCraft, Age of Empires, Freddi Fish, SpyFox, whatever the heck those things are; this is really the only computer game I've ever played... not counting stuff from a hundred years ago, like Star Raiders, M.U.L.E, and EGATrek.  This game is a little space age kid's dream come true.  Why, the old SFC1 mission Balance of Terror even mentions Captain Kirk!

Well, she may be right. But it is a fun and harmless insane. Shoot, I havn't hardly even played the game for a year. I've been mostly changing models, textures, ship specs and every other thing to get it just right. It can take a whole Saturday afternoon to repaint a single model until I'm happy with it. And this is just for EAW alone. Never mind SFC and OP. (I imagine I'll get around to those later ) And when I found out about repainting, cutting and painting the textures... well, just get out of here! Still, I'd have to say the original SFC was the most basic fun to play. The terrain feature and easy mission scripts were what gave it a leg up. EAW/OP is prettier with the illumination mapping. But still, some of the custom user created missions were a lot of fun. Roger Bacon wrote some that I really liked. Nothing like being hounded by pirates that keep muttering  'Argh! where ya going? Argh! Come on back here. We'll wear ya down. Argh.'. Too funny.

Email me a zip file of the Danube and textures you have and I'll fix it for you. I might have time for the Amazon too, depends on the extent of work to be done. My mailbox is small, so if you can, just email me a DL link.  

[nx_adam_1701]

Ok sent it thanks bro

My Good Captain!

If you do fix these models, could you post them?  I'd love to have the repaired versions!  Oh, and could you convert them to SFC1, also?  That'd be super!  

[Captain KoraH]

I know nothing about converting to SFC1. As for posting, I have nowhere to post them. I emailed the new fixed Danube back to Adam, hopefully he will post it somewhere for everyone.

Boo boo

I need some decent poly/ decent res shuttles as well. I want to have something to include with smileys carrier. I do have what looks to be a jeff wallace shuttle, kinda boat shaped...but it looks a bit out of it's time in an akira type ship.

[Rogue]

Captain Korah,

Perchance, did you look at the Amazon? If you are so inclined, that is one I would like to have myself. It would make a peachy Federation frigate. It could also be resized for other duty which I could do.

There are two areas that are missing the textures on the top. One along the spine and the other just behind the bridge. They seem to be intact in the pic.

[nx_adam_1701]

Ok I emailed cleeve at staryards, he will keep in touch, soon plls
