what i was trying to mean was that in the last screenshot, the Nova appears to have a goldenish deflector... altho, it could be reflection from the phaser, im not too sure...

i dont mean to seem nitpicky, tho - it was just a quick thought i had...

C...c...c...c...ookie... *passes out from awe*

Right I looked into that deflector issue and I think i've solved it, what you guys think? Also while im at it, do you all think the scalings fine?

thanks

Its hard to say with scale really, if they were set up like that pic i posted earlier itd be the best way to tell as i cant find any other good pics from that ep. But the Nova class is about 165m, and the Intrepid is 343, so a little under half the length of Voyager

This looks fine to me mate

JimmyB76 · « **Reply #504 on:** June 10, 2008, 05:41:22 PM »

the scaling looks about right...

of course, there are many other pics from trekcore.com, but those are just a few....

If you ignore the damage scars in the following pictures, then you may notice that a few small texture tweaks may be nedded, not that is anything wrong with Jb06's textures at all. I just thing that they could use more depth, as well as speculars, lol.

You missed the registery stripes on the underside of the Eqionox's nacelles.

And the brown/gold (cannot remember Trek accurate name) bits on the warp nacelles should be indented instead of textured on, if you understand what I mean by indented. Same with the bussard collectors/ramscoops.

All in all, it looks awesome. Just those few texture and model tweaks I mentioned and you would be golden.

PS: Is there going to be modeled RCS thrusters on the Voyager in this pack, as well as those 'ribs' (raised lines on the saucer section of Voyager that look like phaser strips but are basically just ribs)?

PPS: And is there going to be a version of the Equinox with battle damage?

Terrific work, Nova looks sweet. Texture tweeks on Intrepid real nice too.

I can't even imagine how big this pack's gonna be when done.

The missing reg on the nacelle i am already aware of, and can only get fixed when limey works on the mesh. I was actually only going to do the Equinox with battle damage, I just haven't got round to adding them yet.

The model alterations to voyager i am unsure due to the restrictions LC now has on his ships, I'd have to ask him.

I hate that Ex Astris doesn't allow hotlinking, lol.

Nova pictures there to illistrate what I mentioned earlier.

Ya got all them when i started on the nova ;) thanks anyways

Oh btw people, We've got another Fed ship coming very soon aswell, so keep your eyes peeled

Rat Boy · « **Reply #510 on:** June 10, 2008, 09:16:10 PM »

Let's see...another Fed ship that appeared on VOY. Hmmm...

Voyager? Check.

Relativity? Check.

Raven? Check.

Aeon? Check.

Equinox? Check.

That just leaves the Prometheus and the Rhode Island, unless you're thinking outside the box and going with ships like the Akira, Nebula, and Defiant-class ships from "Message in a Bottle."

Only a battle damaged version of the Nova? That's kind of a drag, she looks lovely right now. Seems a shame to have to blow holes in her.

Hmmm....another Feddie....I hope it's a new Prometheus!

Don't forget Shuttlecraft 4 from Endgame. Admiral Janeway's personal shuttle, armed with ablative hull generation technology.

Technerd89 · « **Reply #514 on:** June 10, 2008, 10:35:00 PM »

well its either a properly armored voyager, or a more modern promie. either or both would be nice :lol:

CptBenSisko · « **Reply #515 on:** June 10, 2008, 10:36:42 PM »

What about the Dauntless? I bet no one thought of that one lol!

limey BSc. · « **Reply #516 on:** June 10, 2008, 11:21:10 PM »

Dauntless is on the first page

!

dlanoDcM · « **Reply #517 on:** June 11, 2008, 04:38:31 AM »

How about the alternate universe Warship Voyager from Living Witness hmm?
Well not alternate universe, but you get what i mean

Its either that or a version of Voyager from Scorpion part 2, but that needs model changes so i guess you couldnt do either right?

Jb06 · « **Reply #518 on:** June 11, 2008, 06:02:05 AM »

Its no alternative Voyager like scorpion or the warship Voyager as again we can't use LC's Voyager ;)

Ok just for you all ill make 2 versions battle scared and normal for the Equinox ;) hell its only another 40mb lol

Ill try get some first look pics of the Fed ship today, but no promises as I have to revise for my exam tomorrow

I can't believe i've been missing this. It's amazing. You've done a great job on the pack.

Will the YOH Voyager come in 2 versions (like an almost destroyed version and one where it's quite damaged)? The borg transwarp hub looks really good aswell. Have a cookie.
