My First Legacy TO BC port...

[coolguyli27]

After a month of testing and re-learning some things Like how to use the MPE  :shock: I have made my first successful port from Legacy to BC...Well actually second if you count the retextured Klingon Starbase I released on BC files a few days ago...

Once I get all my ships in BC I plan on doing some retextures...cause I know my textures are a little lacking...But passable for now 

so if your interested the LaFayette Class is available on BC files...

Also if you have K.M. 1.0 an update to my klingon starbase is availible..

I owe some thanks to everyone here cause I've been snooping around the Forum  and it's been a
big help in re-learning some things....

It is a nice ship.
Haven't had a chance yet to try it , I was sidetracked, get to it later, but I do have the downld, though.

Small nit-pick... which may not be your fault, since you're just porting it... but... why the h311 are the small windows, when compared to the large 'indented' windows (on the lower hull) so tiny? I mean, either those larger windows are more than 3 decks high... or there was a tiiiiiiiiiiiny little bit of a scaling issue. :lol:

Otherwise, it's kinda neat.

Edit: Alright, so there are window indentations on the top of the hull as well... also, there is the bridge module size to be considered.

I was hoping you would have gotten the models sorted for me so I could have gotten those done for ya..Oh well. Ya still need any help with them?

Aeries: This is coolguy's model. He released it to Legacy a long time ago.

you are right   It is my ship so I'm not just porting it ... it is 100% my fault..I plan on fixing stuff like that once I get all my ship into BC..
when I first started out I was focusing more on modeling skills then texturing...But hey I would like to think Starfleet is an Equal Opportunity Employer and has some dwarfs in it's ranks....
I have learned a few things about texturing since I made this ship last year....I've been trying to do more advanced textures on the newer stuff that I haven't released for Legacy or BC yet..but I still consider myself only half past n00b on the modding clock....still going through some tutorials...


sorry Starforce I haven't forgotten about you...I just really wanted to see if I could actually do it myself...And yes I would still like your help..I have 9 other ships currently in legacy that I want to get into BC and I'm working on some new stuff for the next Ultimate Universe release. So any help would be great...I have all the models ready...I needed to sort out the workings of BC so in the future as I make ships it will be quicker and easier to do dual BC/LEGACY releases..When I get a chance I will Zip the ships I need help with and send them out....

Very nice job but I agree with Aeries, the window scaling needs to be addressed.

Most likely you'll take care of that with the updated textures you plan on releasing.

[Aeries]

HAHA!
Heh, well Coolguy, you're still a step ahead of me; I've never textured before. The Mithra, as my very first 3d model, has yet to receive any such treatment.

In any event, I'm looking forward to what you can bring into the BC community. It looks like you have some really interesting works and talent to offer up.

To be honest, I'm really interested in your stations, still using the Starbase 329 you did.
Any update to that would be great!

I have returned to my station building roots for the next Ultimate Universe Release..Eventually that stuff will make it into BC.

I have considered revamping the 329...I'll add it to my list

its a nice ship, downloading her now ;)
though of what I've read she could be a bit too strong IMO

[Shadowknight1]

I downloaded that ship yesterday, I must say she's an interesting vessel.  Her deflector and weapons pod remind me of the Luna-class.  My only complaint is the weapons, she could use torpedoes other than the stock torpedoes, and the phasers have a super long charge.

[Starforce2]

If longisland sends me the specs on it I can tweak the hp and release an update. I also want to check to see if he got the scale right. I got some work done on the next one, basicly to get the best match I'll split each main bank into 2, I got one ventral bank set which, usually, means I can simply mirror the other side, so It wont be much longer...
