Cheers people, glad you all like it ;)

Unfortunately I won't be doing the extra impulse engines as the flyer in-game will be fast enough, shouldn't be doing any space races :P, nor ftech retractable nacelles like in the CGI Pack as when it went to warp, the ship was so small you could barely see the difference.

Little update then for you all. The top is complete apart from the borgified bits which I'll do last, so I've started on the bottom.

Cheers

Excellent job on this as in all of this pack!

You know, I'm honestly overwhelmed at the size and scope of this pack when it will finally be released... it will be kind of like a "new" BC game in and of itself. IMO it's almost too big. As awesome as it is, what if some of us don't want every single new mod/feature in this giant pack? I'm not even going to request this as I'm sure it won't be honored as it would be a huge undertaking but I can wish anyway... Along with the whole pack as a stand-alone download, I wish that each piece of this entire pack could be set for individual download so then we could piece together what we wanted and not download what we don't want.

Once again, fantastic job and obviously if it only comes in one pack I will most certainly download it but... well let me put it this way, I have so many mods installed in 4 separate BC installs that in the 8+ years that I've had this game there are some ships that I've maybe played with once or twice. Now with this gigantic mod (when it comes out) I'll be an old man before I get to play with all the features in just this pack alone... not that that is a bad thing of course but... whew!  :P

It certainly is an epic undertaking with all the ships and planets.
(speaking of which)  which Sovereign001's Super Planet Resolution these planets likely won't look as good.  I'll ask Sov if he would consider undating the rez on the Delta Quad Pack.

Increasing the resolution would only mean slowing the game down. too many big textures on an old game... nope. wouldnt be too wise IMO

Indeed they used to be 4096 x 4096 but slowed down the game significantly, especially with these planet's having speculars as well.

The Delta Flyer is one good looking Boat.  I would assume that Starfleet adopted her as a new class of Runabout when Voyager got home.  I look forward to playing around with this one  :thumbsup:

Very nice DF, good details, I think I saw, maybe 2 episodes of Voyager, is that the way the Windows looked or was it Darker tint?

Oh and BTW, have a cookie too. [STAFF, those sure better be Low Cal- cookies]

Most CGI shots of the flyer showed the actual crew inside, so I made the colour the same as the Type 9.

Anyways I've also scaled all the shuttles properly so you get a proper feel ;)

Just a quick update on Voyager, with Doug Drexler posting high res images of the Intrepid Aeroshuttle, I've textured the detail on the bottom part of it ;)

What exactly is this "new glow system" you speak of?

Essentially a faked "deferred lighting" system.
