i like where this ship is going!

it is somewhat resembling ChiefBrex's Poseidon Class, which was always one of my fav ships...

Yeah I do like the look of this

whats the size of this ship?
is it smaller in size like a Nova Class?
or larger like the Prometheus Class or Intrepid Class?  or perhaps larger like the Sovereign Class?
is it designed with powerful defense weapons?  or average?

going by my deck heights shes about Prometheus size. She has about average weapons, (phasers, photons & quantums) but she also has defiant styled pulse phasers in the front, hence the defiant inspired cut in panels on the front of the saucer. And yeah I remember seeing stuff for Brex's Poseidon Class, cant be sure if I used it for any inspiration on this or not though as its been a few YEARS since I originally conceptualised this one.

Cookie on the textures. Very realistic plating, custom made for the ship?

yeah, the plating is custom for the ship, though it wasn't me who initially made it, I had help from Wiley.

So, it's been a while, However, I am pleased to announce I have FINALLY and with help gotten her textured and in game, she now uses a single 2048x2048 texture for the entire ship.

I am also pleased to announce the Beta Test Release of the ship here!
I am aware of a couple of issues, like Phasers firing through the hull, but she seems to work and be a spry ship!
Download the Beta here: https://www.mediafire.com/file/yckv6z8cj1j6y6d/USSValhalla_Beta.7z/file

Here are some images of her in game:





There are Credits in the README, but, I would like to personally thank King Class Scout, WileyCoyote and the rest of the community here for the help and support in getting her in game in a "finished" state!

Ok so, Beta update time. To avoid a conflict with another ship that goes by Valhalla, all the scripts have been renamed to "USSValhalla" and appropriate script changes made, still working out the HP fix for the beam arrays firing through the ship, but I have also fixed the one beefy red array coming from the saucer.

Please be sure to delete the old Valhalla.py and Valhalla.pyc scripts from your install before trying this beta update.
Locations of old scripts are as follows
<BC Install Root>\scripts\custom\ships
<BC Install Root>\scripts\ships
<BC Install Root>\scripts\ships\Hardpoints

Download the Updated Beta 3 Mod here: https://www.mediafire.com/file/k1j9fmxavrws5jk/USSValhalla_Beta_3.7z/file

OK Folks! Beta update time!

We are now on Beta 4, Elijah did an amazing job fixing the HP and scripts and optimising the mesh!
Just drag the data and scripts folder to your BC install as usual, should overwrite all the Beta 3 Files and the Readme has an updated manifest of the files this uses.

Grab Beta 4 here! https://www.mediafire.com/file/kcepxbootw2p8zm/USSValhalla_Beta_4.7z/file

Great Looking Ship. I just downloaded it and will look into it after work. But, you should not give up on that original idea though. That Ambassador variant was a great idea. Should do both.

I would finish off that ambassador variant, however, I lost a lot of my old model work a few years ago when my windows install of the time went nuclear on me.
