Something which I haven't dove into in bc modding is bridge modding. Yeah I've done the Stargate bridges, which still need finishing and releasing at some point, but I wanted a go at a ST bridge. So with the permission off Mark I've completely retextured the Intrepid V3.2 bridge. I'll let the pics do the talking.

There's red alert & green alert pics btw

The lighting a red alert of the floor level lights seems unnatural.  The light shining on the floor doesn't fade off slow enough.  It's like:
++++++++++---
Whereas it should be:
++++++--------

I hope that makes sense. :)

I'm guessing you're talking about the blue bits? If so yeah I no still got bits to fix yet, the LM still needs a little tweaking + various other bits

Just a slight update. I never knew how annoyingly frustrating a MSD is, however many many hours later i've managed to get it right I hope lol

Also fixed the LM on the blue glow hopefully, see what you guys think. Oh and if anyone knows the actual font for MSD's & has it, any chance you could supply it please :D

thanks

CTRL-F "Font" and it should give you a zip full of nice fonts to use.

The SWISS?  That should be the right one.  See?

Right I've found the right font type, so that's been fixed along with a finished MSD :D. I've now begun making the lcars for the consoles around the bridge.

Opinions welcome :D

I don't suppose you could make a tutorial on making LCARS, could you? It's very difficult to pull off right and you seem to have quite the knack for it :).

Thanks. Err I could, but it wouldn't be any good, I hate explaining how to make things :P The simple lcars, like the buttons etc aren't that hard at all, a lot easier than ship texturing, that maybe why I've picked up it so easy. The only thing I need to do now is make them look shiny, but not reflective. Good ref pics from Trekcore & the virtual tour of Voyager has definitely helped me on this. Next up will be the Tactical Station, keep tuned ;)

thank

While buttons are easy, it's the skeletons that kick my ass. Any tips?

perhaps that discussion might be better off in a new thread, or in PMs?  just to avoid the thread's focus from shifting...  :)

As Promised, here's the Tactical Station & I had chance to do the Operations Station as well. All that needs doing on them is making something in the middle of them so they're not black, but I'm searching through screencaps to see what was used the most.

Animated LCARS?

*prays*

If possible yeah I will incorporate them in along with changing them to red on red alert, I'll just have a chat with Mleo see if animation is possible.

thanks

Right had chance to do the Mission Ops I + II stations along with some tweaks to the MSD.

I've been diving into the scripts looking about animations... On that front I'm not too sure yet, however I have altered the script so then each of the lcars change when on red alert like it appears on the show :D Think the bridge dome & a few other bits go a light blue so that will be done eventually :P Got to finish the green alert lcars yet :P

Opinions welcome
