I have in mind a new mod for Freespace II. IT will be a Star Trek mod. I do have one problem with this though. I can't make my own ships, and I can't seem to find any Star Trek ships out there-though people say there are. If you know of any, PLEASE either give me the link to them or E-mail them to me at [email protected]
I will also accept requests to join the team. If you can make ships, weapons, etc, I need you!
A side note- you also need to enjoy Star Trek. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

Welcome to HLP!![/i]
Always wanted to say that..
I'll let Sandwich have the honor of saying the other bit (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/tongue.gif)
-
Thanks. No idea about ST ships though?

Hello and welcome to HLP Trekkie. Yes there are ST ships out there but most of the ones on the web are high poly ones intended for renders and the like.
GreyWolf has dabbled in Startrek modelling, you might give him a shout. There are a few others, look around, there are always some people interested in trek.

Other than what Maeglamor just said, no..
Homeworld models now.. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)
-
Thanks. I'll try talking to him. Other than the Borg Diamond that replaces the Meson Bomb, I can't find anything.
-
Actually..
I may have something somewhere...
-
Really? *begins drooling* (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)
-
Ahh..
No... 15000 polys is a but much for FS2...
-
What ship was it?
-
Cube...
Extremely high detail one...
-
If you wouldn't mind, could you E-mail it to me? [email protected]
Thanks.
-
Gah! Now I gotta dig that CD out again...
Damn, I gotta learn to label these things...
-
If it's too much trouble, don't worry about it.
-
Not to impede but does everyone ignore my threads? (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/frown.gif)
-
Nope, I looked at it, didnt feel I could contribute anything to it, so I didnt post anything.
And, Trekkie? I'll send it when I find it...
-
You could say whether you like it or not in its thread.
-
Thank you. I appreciate it. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)
-
Just out of curiousity, which era of Star Trek are you planning? Or are there going to be some from all 3? And are you going with strictly "canon" or no? i.e. the Akula-class destroyer was never in Star Trek, or the movies, (to my knowledge, anyways), but it shows up in Starfleet Command. Would you want something like that?
-
Right now, I'll take whatever I can get, so if you have the Akula, I'd love to see it.
-
I don't *have* one, but, I could probably crank one out... I like to think I'm gettin' pretty good at Blender... I'll see what I can do... at least for the Model. I haven't learned the actual texturing part yet.
-
Thanks! The main thing I will need is Federation shuttle craft of varying types. But big ships are important too. Thanks again!
-
there have been 2 star trek TC mod projects. both were cancelled.
i can help you, though. i made a borg cube for FS2.
-
a startrek mod.... oooohhhhbzzzuuuuhiiiihhuuuuu scrouncth.
-
I need team members for this project. And anyone can send me ships. I do not plan on canceling this mod though. What happened to the others? Were they released incomplete?
-
Must have ships and weapons! If anyone has one, please E-mail it to me at [email protected]
Thanks.
-
I now have the first Star Trek ship for FS2! The Borg Cube! Right now it is in the game and putting up quite a fight. But one ship will not make a mod. I now need some Federation star ships. The first ships I have my eyes on are the Sovereign class as a war ship, the Type 11, Type 9, and Danube class shuttle craft as fighters.
If anyone can help me with these, I'd appreciate it.
Don't forget waepons though! I need torpedoes and phasers and there will be some interesting special weapons later. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/cool.gif)

hmm, i think there was already a borg cube model done for fs2 for other ships, ask maeglamor, he made some (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)
-
I have a Borg Cube. As for the other ships, I'm on my way to ask him now. Thanks.

Thank you very much! I really appreciate it. The Galaxy is one of the best looking ships out there. Thanks again! (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

In case of emergency, exits are to the rear and left. The standard shotguns, which would normally be found under your seat, are being replaced with the more advanced HL-16. In the meantime, feel free to throw popcorn when threatened.

Thanks for the welcome. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)
I now have 3 ST ships in game. The Borg Cube, the Federation's Galaxy class, and one that I've not heard of before, the Raptor-also for the Feds.
-
killmenow did a galaxy class, if you wanted to compare (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)

I didn't see a Galaxy, but there was the beginning of an Akira that caught my eye. Thanks! (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)
-
The Raptor was my own invention. It's a player-flyable cruiser (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/devil.gif)
-
Really? A flyable cruiser? This I've got to see!
-
Here's a link to the Borg Sphere in the VWatch archives: http://archives.volitionwatch.com/download/fs2mod/bsphere.zip ("http://archives.volitionwatch.com/download/fs2mod/bsphere.zip")
-
Thanks again! That should do it for the Borg. What I have in mind for them is to be map units that get in the way of your battles. And it will be bad news if they do...
If you find more though, I would still like to see them. Thanks! (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

The Wolf 359 MOD there has a bunch of Borg reskins of FS2 ships. If you e-mail Pegasus V he might send you the Fed and Klingon reskins he made for the Alpha Quadrant project before he canceled it.
-
Thanks! I had seen some of the Borg skins he had made. It is good work.
-
Woohoooo!!! I now have the Borg Cube, the Galaxy class cruiser, and the Raptor in game and they are playing well. I need more! Especially Star Trek fighters. Things like the Perigrine Attack Fighter, the Type 9 Shuttle, the Danube class shuttle, etc..
I also need weapons. The ones that came with the ships so far aren't working too great. I always get an error message about a pre-existing weapon if I add the phasers. Though, the Borg Cube is really impressive when it is firing eight beam cannons at once! (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/devil.gif)
-
Here's a new ship I just made. I was aiming for something new, but it ended up looking like the Akira:

-
That looks great! About how big is it?
-
Whatever size you want.
-
Hey Trekkie, forgot to ask... you gonna have the NX-01 available in that?

I could not have said it better myself. Welcome, Trekkie - good luck with your project! Turn to us if you need further help!

I'd say a medium sized cruiser. Perhaps 450-500 meters long.
-
Another update!
I now have a Borg Sphere in the game, along with a lot of great new sounds for everything from weapons firing and engines, to the noises made when selecting things!
-
Things are progressing nicely. I have some weapons being made and a few ships as well. I still need more people to help out though.
-
ok you need to get a website to put your news on lol
-
I do have a 'website', if you can really call it that. But it is completely devoted to another game. Star Trek: Armada and Armada II. Unfortunately, this will have to do for now.
How are the weapons coming along?
