WileyCoyote's WIPs - Continues to Lurk Around

[WileyCoyote]

Just out of interest, are you going to be making the full set of constitutions and mirandas (like you have with the excelsior),
Or will you be sticking to the main ones(Ent, Ent-A, Reliant)?

Maybe in the future, it's not in my current interests to build them.

As someone who's read the old "Ships of the Star Fleet" books, I wouldn't mind seeing the Phase II with USS Constitution markings.  Maybe you could release a mixed pack, kinda like you did with the Excelsiors and Refit Excelsiors.

I could do that, but it's the same answer as the last question. If I were to do a Phase II USS Constitution it will be a slight retexture to make it different from the USS Enterprise.

Also, your Doomsday Machine is brutal against ships of the TOS-TMP era, even the Atriau.  I took the Atriau against it, and one well placed blast from the DM blew her shields away then hit her reactor.  The crew probably didn't know what hit them.

Well, it is an anti-proton beam, probably the most powerful weapon in the galaxy ('twas my viewpoint on such a thing. The Atraiu would never have been powerful enough anyway unless it had about 4 warp cores).

DJ's Eclipse only took 10% damage to a shield arc with each hit and never went low enough to take damage, and it easily blew the Doomsday Machine away.  The 25th Century must be a dangerous place indeed. 

Wiley, is there going to be an Ent-A?

[WileyCoyote]

Wiley, is there going to be an Ent-A?

Yes, there will be an Enterprise-A. I just don't know how powerful it should be. I also have a ST3 Battle Damaged Enterprise I can throw in too.

The A shouldn't be much more powerful than the WOK 1701.

[Darkthunder]

The A shouldn't be much more powerful than the WOK 1701.

Not so sure about this. Remember, the WOK 1701 (and thereby the TMP 1701), was largely refitted in 2270 (pre-TMP). By the year 2285 (WOK), the ship was assigned as mostly a training ship. It was a ship pretty much filled with cadets before the Regula emergency. The 1701-A on the other hand, came out of spacedock as a fresh ship (thou according to certain sources, it was renamed from the USS Yorktown, this however was not seen/heard onscreen).

not wanting to hijack or spam this thread...buuuut lol....the 1701-A should be somewhat more powerful in phaser and photon capacity....she fired her photons in rapid succession in STVI:TUC...and she had a very updated engine room as well (as the set and warp core was reused from TNG) so her reactor should put out more power than the WOK version and she should have more powerful phasers and a somewhat higher impulse power as well i'd say..

Agreed, afterall it's been 15-20 years after TMP which means it should be more powerful, notice that in TMP Enterprise was fitted after 20 (or more) years of service with new phasers, shields, warp core etc. so it's possible that they refitted its systems after another 20 years.

ok guys, before things get even more sidetracked, perhaps it might be best to let the issue die and let Wiley chime in...
if he needs further advice, he will ask...

thx

[Dalek]

Hey Wiley, your sig. is that what you've got planned now?

[WileyCoyote]

Hey Wiley, your sig. is that what you've got planned now?

Yep. I've been texturing as I model and according to the schematics I have, the model will be very accurate. The model will not have animations (I never liked it when the bussards took damage). The model is about 80% complete. I have nothing to show right now, maybe I just want to build up the suspense.

[CptBenSisko]

damn man...you are on fire!!! how goes the STIII Battledamaged Enterprise?

[furswift]

I can't wait! I'm sure this pack will go beautifully with your Doomsday Machine.

[Joshmaul]

I can't wait! I'm sure this pack will go beautifully with your Doomsday Machine.

Something tells me that was the idea.

[Shadowknight1]

Well Wiley, you've certainly got us in suspense.  You keep on churning out these beautiful renditions of the early Enterprises(TOS through B), not to mention the JJ-Enterprise.  Keep on going!

[WileyCoyote]

how goes the STIII Battledamaged Enterprise?

The ship itself uses the TWOK Battle-Damaged Enterprise hardpoint. I could try to make the hardpoint "canon" in which the shields do not work right, but no one would want to play it as a weakened ship. The Enterprise-A uses the TWOK hardpoint but uses ST:6 torpedoes. I have not packed these up yet, but I'll release them soon (sometime this month, hopefully).

I can't wait! I'm sure this pack will go beautifully with your Doomsday Machine.

What I'm really looking forward is to do the battle-damaged Constellation from TOS:Remastered.

That looks like it will be a lot of fun. Will you include all the exposed decks and girders in the mesh or will it be mostly done with textures?

[WileyCoyote]

A little bit of both. I'll try to keep the polycount low.

What i meant was the texturing...ive been trying to find sources to do the battle damage..but i can't really find anything...

[WileyCoyote]

To start off the new year is my new TOS USS Enterprise. It is about 28.3k polys. Enjoy!

[CptBenSisko]

HOLY CHRIST Wiley!!! Thats spectacular!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
