Hello all, well I am taking a small break from Yesteryears for a while. Syf and I always need to do this once in a while and while he is busy with another project that I support I thought I would go back to this that has been sitting on my hard-drive for quite sometime. I have been doing this on and off for quite sometime now (years in fact) and decided to do some more on it.
I doubt I will ever finish this personal mod and I don't even know if I have show this online before.
Simply put it's a TLE/TNG. Yes for a TMP era fan it's strange for me but every now and then one must go into a area they normally wouldn't.
Now this mod is a little different from what I have seen out there. Kind of like the old birth of the federation mod. You start off in the lost era (2340's) so you build Ambassadors and the sort. Then after a fair bit or researching you are able to move into the TNG (2360's) where you get the Galaxy, Nebula and what not.
I am not sure if I will add a level 3 to it, if I do it will be the 2380's, set just after Nemesis.
Now this isn't a big mod, about 6 ships (combat) per race, per era, so that is 12 ships total if I decide not to include a level 3. There are also only a few races, they are:
Federation
Klingons
Romulans
Cardassians
And possibility a minor race which has all those unknown, rarely seen races. They if I do them will be different as they will have alpha quadrant as level 2, beta quadrant as level 2 and delta quadrant as level 3.
The Cardassians I am planning, if I run out of designs to have the Dominion as level 3 (if I do a level 3), I know the war is over by then but this will be just a simple multi-player mod, nothing all that fancy just me messing around making something different when I want to mod but don't want to work on Yesteryears as the same thing can get boring every now and then.
Most of the models used in here will be what is already available for Armada two with a few SFC conversions. I am not really all that worried about poly counts, but like usual I will be aiming for the lower the better.
I may post screen-shots when I actually get some as right now I don't have the ships ingame, just working on the models and choosing what ships go where. But I will be working on it as an era and usually as a race basis starting with the Federation (they have the most designs after all).
I am interested in what you, the community thinks of this little endeavour.
