[QUOTE=cottonwaxy;16053301]i know and there slightly raised.[/QUOTE]
Well they do get raised in the show when they got to warp...
Too bad warp will never be possible. Great game, crappy engine
the only way i got warp was making a wire teleporter in side your ship and having it move around when i was in the chair i was using it to move round more faster sb_gooniverse alot faster plus it helped me kill some mingebags also :D
That is six kinds of awesome, but please, Dont get your modles from Legacy, that games just sucked.
Instead get them from here!

Here is the Voyager pack, just for shits and giggles.

Yeah, the custom shit for BC is awesome!
there may be a reason why ApwnInTheDark is using the legacy models for farseerwrait
I agree that the legacy models are visually inferior, but here are my reasons from most to least important.
1. They are officially licensed. I view this the same way a card collector might prefer originals to Chinese counterfeits - regardless of any 'improvements' to the bootlegs.
2. Even though they are lower poly, they were modeled, textured, light mapped, bump mapped, & detail mapped by paid professionals with a large budget. Since I'm no expert on Star Trek canonry, nor do I want to sit around comparing meshs, Its reasonable to assume Legacy's models are probably better optimized than most user created meshs.
3. The above map types are all 100% supported by the source engine without any manipulation. (other than cramming them onto 1 giant texture to beat the 32 texture limit)
4. I'm too lazy to ask for permission, so If I have to steal someones hard work it may as well be the guys who got a paycheck out of it. I wouldnt want to be like this assclown =P.

---
If [i]need[/i] be, I have no problem using custom mesh's, but only after making damn sure a game studio didn't already do the work for me.
I'm also a fan of 'cheapness', if you will. The low poly/low texture 3D in older games appeals to me for 2 reasons.
1. Obviously, you can spawn many more of them before experiencing frame loss. This is critical with models in garrys mod since every player in your server could potentially spawn one.
2. When game engines had more restrictive polygon & texture limits, they were used much more efficiently because they HAD to. Looks vs cost, old games win hands down for this very reason.

I think that guy is just saying he welded the things together, as it doesn't contain any models at all.
agh i see but still the work you have done so far is really well done i would love to see more ships even if there is no bridges in them you could just make them up as you go along even try your own designs even try making your own starship or you could even try to make all the starships in parts so you would make your own ship out of all parts would be cool too

yep he is apwn lol anyword about your new ship ?
This is incredible! Great work, man.
Thank you for this.
The second set of screenshots ("Voyager limping home") have backwards nacelles.

yea he stuck them on backwards so he could fly in to space backwards lol
Actually, im 25% of the way through overhauling Enterprise-D with the higher quality content from Legacy. Also, I'm reskinning the interior with some lightmaps I found from bridge commander that I was previously too nub to impliment.
However, that project is paused at the moment because I found out how to port ships from Empire: Total War which are easy to port, and would make for good sea battles. Currently working on the HMS Victory.

holy ship lol <- i ment that but anyway this sea ship looks great can't wait for it
I updated the lighting on the exterior. I dont know why I didnt notice these light maps sooner - amongst the ST: Legacy files.

just tryed this out looks even better on the out side :D now it's the start terk TNG ship need's fixed up now
I wondered why you didn't impliment them in the first place, but it's nice to see that you finally have.
Have you thought of contacting one of the authors of a Hi-Rez bridge pack at Bridge Commander files?
I've implimented some of those files for personal use, it's a good improvement worth looking into.

ApwnInTheDark can you upload that update on megaupload or filefront because garrysmod.org is shit i'm getting 23kb's a second.
i cannot wait for all of your stuff
EPIC !
when is the enterprise e coming out how the hell do u use voyager with thruseters i cant get it to stablise it keeps going up
see how you are going to make more star trek ships like Enterprise-e i was going to ask if you would do uss excelsior because star trek elite force 2 has the bridge and shuttle bay area's for that ship + shuttle pod too :3
edit ApwnInTheDark can i add you to my steam freinds please :D

Holy crap I didnt know that. What amazes me more is that this is essentially a 1701-B bridge, so I could make that ship too. As for the excelsior, I'd use a ST: legacy model =D. Has modern fx maps.
Also, sure you can add me to steam. [email]FierceKatana@msn.com[/email]
i added you to my msn i'll get your steam name later on :D lol
edit: uss excelsior is one of my favorite ships i take it if you get the bridge model from star trek elite force two you maybe you can mod it to look like kirk's bridge too maybe. ????
also i'll keep playing ST: elite force 2 and see if there's more ship parts and ships.
well i think u can add me to steam by that email as well.
Awesome, let me know what you find in Elite Force.
While federation ships are amazing, we definitely need some klingon or romulan ships to fight them against.
ALSO, I cannot figure out for the life of me how to make a reliable wire facer turret with a pod controller/cam controller. (basically, a remote turret controllable from one of the ensign chairs, positioned under, or over the saucer) ideally, it should be scripted for badwidths sake, not overly mechanical
i'm not to sure about wiremod i find it a wee bit hard but i'm sure in elite force 2 there's a romulan ship maybe a klingon one too i'll be playing it again in five mins if i find more ships i'll post it here
also i tryed you msn name on steam it never worked i think i need the user name only i think i'm not to sure
try: [ZCN] Apwn In The Dark
ps. i ripped the millenium falcon from Jedi Knight 1 a while back (couldnt find a higher quality model of it). Its fairly detailed, but lacks fx maps. I dont like star wars much, but if I ever get around to working on it, I think it could serve as a good opponent (or just target practice) for federation starships. Does anyone know of a better millenium falcon model? An Interior is desperately needed because I'm not going to spend long modeling 1 from scratch, if thats what I have to do.
i'm not to sure there maybe one some where but i'm not a big star wars fan myself lol
but i was going to say in eilte force 2 there's parts for Enterprise-e birdge and walkways and stuff also there's one or two alien shuttles in there too :3
edit: my steam freinds can't find the name [ZCN] Apwn In The Dark i think it's bloody broken again :/ i'll eed to find a new way lol.
Yea the entire Enterprise-E bridge is accessible in deathmatch in EF2 along with the conferrence room. Its by far the most beautiful and detailed bridge in any st game to date imho.
it's also in the single player thats where i seen it

messing around lol also i've added you to steam freinds now
