I know I know... I just needed a test that was absolute!!! I just edited the TBL for her to have a Shivan Beam cannon, I forget which.

Also check out the photon torpedo model, which you really can't see but its in the middle of that 3dsmax brewed glow. I put a PLOW point in it's center and now I'd say its pretty accurate to the fiction of that torpedo. GLOWIES!!! GLOWIES!!!

I used the Cyclops torpedo TBL without the trails and a max speed of 400!!!

Only one problem with Star Trek...

No fighters! :(

We're all out of a job. :shaking:

I beg to differ. I believe Runabouts make excellent fighters as well as the Maquis raiders.

The Trek franchise took a wack at fighter technologies with the PS1 game Star Trek Invasion. It was pretty sweet, in terms of gameplay and fighter design. I believe the Federation could hold their own in a swarm of Hercs or Shivans according to that game.
Hell that game had gravity as an element in upper atmosphere dogfights.... sick ****e. I even recall a taking a fighter inside to the core of a BORG Cube... ala Deathstar. Check it out:

Thanks to the Trek Plugin pack for Milkshape, plugins for a Playstation game was unexpected, I'll have some of those fighters ported over to this eventually.

Defiants are sorta fighters arn't they?
In SFC3 you got little pods that fly around with a phaser on the front. ;7

Ok. You have fighters in BC.

Like the Runabouts. But there are also others, they were in the Dominion War, to bad I never was able to see one :( they always stopped the series at that point...
They were 1 person fighters btw.

I liked the photon torpedo effects. Very nice! But I agree that the phasers are a way too large. I believe you can actually change the values of the beam to make them smaller but I haven't been modding for so long that I totally forgot how to even extract the file to edit.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

I was just thinking, it might be a good idea to create a clustering version of your torpedo.  We've seen instances when a single torpedo will split into 5 or so.  Since we already have clustering weapons in FS, it shouldn't be to hard, just remove the split shockwave, and replace the pof for the missiles spawned from the split with your standard photon torpedo.   I'd also suggest you find a photon torpedo launch sound to go along with this and your own weapon.

Later!

Actually, in Star Trek a Galaxy can fire 10 at a time.

INTERESTING!!! Cluster torpedoes. I'm ON IT!!! Never thought to use thoes fighter missiles with a starship. I'll have to increase its damage points of course. It would still be usefull to find out what the actual torpedo looks like before the split. I doubt the torpedo is the same structure (without the red glow). Star Trek TNG always shows the torpedos glowing already. I'll make an additional UBER glow for the torpedoe before it disperses. TIME FOR SOME ARTISTIC LICENSE   =)


I may need help with the TBL for that. Any volunteers?

Cluster torpedoes? For the Galaxy? Never saw that in any of the Star Trek shows...

I think he's just confused and didn't notice that they fire in volleys...

Season 3, "Yesterday's Enterprise", when the 3 Birds Of Prey began their attack, the Enterprise's first volley was a single torpedo that fragmented right in front of its target.

Season 1, "Arsonal of Freedom", I'm not absolutely sure about this, but when Geordie was in command, and they were trying to shoot down this small robot cloaking ship that was attacking them, their torpedo did the split as well.

I can't recall any more at the moment.

Is it? I only knew that your Tactical officers liked to fire photon torpedoes in volleys of 3 to 4 torpedoes at their targets.

I used teh wasp as a base and chaged teh cluster spawn bay to photon torpedo.. I know in teh NOVA the misile stikes and laser bolts (primariey weapon) explode 360 from pointof impact. WhatI tried to do was a traditional Pirahna type photon spread shoots out and then when you hit button again or time dely goes off photons erupt from original and all strike target very similar to ST episodes.. My main problem is th inital one works, but teh spread activates invisible adn also shoote along a totally 360 arc but to teh sides!!! like draw a cirgle and they all radiate out from the edges along a plane.. sick...

I tested this on a borg cube at point blank range and discoverred this normally unobservable effect...

I am lost, Onmi can you send me your torpedo (if it works in retail FS2 no upgraded???) Or at least a hint on how to make a secondary Phtoon torp?

Right now mine are primaries that use a singel frame from teh ST bitmaps so tehy do not flicker but I think still look cool nonetheless..


  Also there are like 3 or 4 fed Fighters.. The Peregine, The VENTURE!!! and like 2 more... I think, plus a multitude of specialty shuttle craft make ST feasible for teh single pilot..

BTW the oteh rraces also have fightercraft.. they are in SFC3... I'll try to contact Ludi to se if he can convert some for us...

Till something happens , or I ge some help, hopefully Krackers has started turreting the ships I sent him and I somehow get the torpedoes to split.. L8tr all..
Don't think of it as being outnumbered. Think of it as having a wide target selection !
