Instead of doing generic bridges I have decided to provoke more interest by doing specific localized bridges. This will first off remove the hassle of trying to replace identifying objects like the MSD and dedication plaque, which will give me an opportunity to make my own. I haven't made a proper full scale MSD since the Pegasus Project nearly two years ago, and that has gone on to be one of the most popular bridges on BCFiles.
So, here's a list of current projects:
-USS Righteous (Excelsior Class)
This is the bridge from the video game Star Trek: Borg. I will attempt to get it as close as possible, although the LCARS will be definitely different and for the better. You can see a video here:
&feature=PlayList&p=EC15E8E30186D5D2&index=6
Progress: 60% Complete. What's left? LCARS for most of the bridge, MSD.
-USS Defiant
I will be redoing the Defiant Bridge with up to date LCARS in high resolution and doing my best to improve the interior. The bridge will take on a darker tone and the only blue will be from the LCARS. No more beige!
-Progress: 5%. Still in the experimentation phase. Relies on LCARS from Righteous bridge.
-USS Saritoga (Nebula Class Bridge)
This will be the Saritoga from DS9 1x1. It will be very difficult to deal with the mapping on the Nebula v3, wish I had access to Nebula v4. Rest assured that when Excalibur is released, I will be modding their bridges. First and foremost, this one. I'll try to do it in BC, though.
Progress: 15%. Needs MSD, textures, LCARS from Righteous, and new TMP isolinear chips. Those will probably be borrowed from the new Defiant.
-Olympic Class Bridge
You guys already know about this one.
Progress: 70%. Bridge textures done. Needs LCARS from Righteous, new MSD (mine got trashed
). No rush since MarkyD has to rebuild his model.
-Yamaguchi bridge
This will be brought up to current standards. No tactical display, I feel it was poorly implemented on the Ambassador bridge. Gave a cramped feeling. This will recieve a total facelift as well as the Righteous LCARS.
Progress: 5%
-V'orcha bridge (however you spell it)
This will be a simple retex and lightmap overhaul of the Galor class...maybe. I'm really not sure. I'll try, though.
Progress: 0%
-ST6 Enterprise Bridge
Will be retextured to bring it in line with modern standards. Will be tough as hell. I will be creating 100% brand new TMP textures for this based around that style. The tactical display will be fully realized. This will take...a very LONG time.
Progress: 0%
-TMP Era Ship (I need help with which one?)
Late TMP styled bridge. Will replace the former Late TMP Generic, go figure. This will end up being generic, just because there are far too many TMP era ships.
Progress: 95% (needs a new plaque). Ideally going to be the first release.
