Hello and welcome to MSFC. We are a small and close knitted community who specialises in modding the game Star Trek Armada 2 and the Fleet Operations modification, however we have an open field for discussing a number of topics including movies, real life events and everything in-between.
Being such a close community, we do have some restrictions, including all users required to be registered before being able to post as well as all members requiring to have participated in the community for sometime before being able to download our modding files to name the main ones. This is done for both the protection of our members and to encourage new members to get involved with the community. We also require all new registrations to first be authorised by an Administrator and to also have an active and confirmed email account.
We have a policy of fairness and a non harassment environment, with the staff quick to act on the rare occasion of when this policy is breached. Feel free to register and join our community.
Looks good Maj
Makes me wish I was a lot better at modding than I am so that I could help. I can adjust AI build lists but I'm not all that great at balancing them out!
Wow. I think they all look great. Nice job. I don't understand though what you mean by your lightmaps are still rough?
I'm sorry, I meant that to my unsophisticated eye they look ok. I don't see in what way they look rough? Just highlights my glaring lack of skill LOL
You deserve five stars for your honest-to-god effort Maj, you've come a long way in texturing these beauties. The glow effects really add icing to the cake.
I really would love to help you out on the finer details but I'm really backed to a corner right now. Curse this wicked education system of ours LOL! So it's an extended rain check for now.
I hope editing the lightmaps wasn't too much of a hassle. Its a shame that I wasn't able to download the PSD's. Slow internet and all that LOL, but either way, I'm just happy to have helped out a friend.
Maj, I was also hoping you'd take a crack at the Lexington Class someday. Did you have reasons for omitting her?
Aye, sending the PSD's one at a time is a very economical move, I'm all for it Maj. The edits shouldn't really take too long to be honest. I'll probably put all the changes in separate layers. They're mostly the new running lights and the recolored impulse engines I believe.
Shame about the Lexington Class though, a good effort even in that unfinished state. But like you said, models are never finished and you may find a use for her down the road. The benefits of recycling at work.
I had another question. Are you going to have the continuous fire phasers that are standard look in game or are you going to have them look like the movies typical to the ball type phasers where they fire multiple streams? Like the battles in Wrath of Khan. I know there is a TMP phaser mod about that did it. Was just curious.
