Whats wrong with the ol tng style holodecks? They look like what they do and besides I've always thought the voyager and ds9 holodecks were different because they were smaller and so their design had to reflect a smaller more basic and yet added onto look especially with the holodecks in ds9. Remember when julian was driving a F1 car in the holoddeck? Lol it wasn't moving and was obvious too but it's because the room was so small.
Seeing as i've seen every episode of DS9 multiple times, I can honestly say I can't recall a single episode where Julian Bashir was driving a Formula 1 car.
On topic thou, the style of the
Holosuit in DS9 was non-Federation in origin. They were owned by Quark (A Ferengi), maintained by his oftentimes idiot brother (also a Ferengi), and located on a Cardassian Orbital Station, built by Bajoran slave-workers. The Holosuit's on DS9 was in no way designed or built using Federation technology, and they have no resemblence whatsoever to the holodecks on Voyager. Voyager on the other hand, had the same form of holodeck appearance, that the "Pathfinder Project" had back at Starfleet Headquarters.
The only time during the run of DS9 that we've seen the Voyager/Pathfinder style holodeck, is when "Director Sloan" of Starfleet Intelligence had kidnapped Julian Bashir to an off-station location. Sloan was in fact part of an offshoot-organisation of Starfleet Intelligence known as Section 31. As I said, this holodeck seen was
NOT onboard the station itself.
The style of holodeck seen here by baz1701, is the style in use on Galaxy Class starships during the 2360s. And this style was likely retired with the streamlined and likely more efficient style used in official office buildings and newer starships such as the Intrepid Class. Don't get me wrong, I think all of the interior work that baz1701 has done so far looks pretty damn good. Just stating that the likelyness is that the holodeck he has made, is not the one that would've been present on the Sovereign Class.
