Competition is always a good thing. Makes people strive to do better than the rest. And while X_TheUnknown_X's Spacedock model is currently untextured, I think both of your models look great. I only wish the STO spacedock (when it gets revamped) looks atleast half as good.

This is great, I didn't expect to see two Spacedock's being made at the same time. We have this and the Unknown's Spacedock, your new Conny and Contellation, plus Furswift announced his Excelsior pack is almost done. It's a Great time to be a TMP fan

just taking a break to eat so will post the dock thus far.

Just the runways to build and texture.

OH that is good.

Like what you got so far, like your take on it.

The spotlights inside, around the top on the textures, are a nice touch. Shame there can't be an actual light source inside the dock in BC, have to be a slave to the light source in the system you're in.

CptBenSisko · « **Reply #2607 on:** January 30, 2011, 02:22:38 AM »

a model can't have its own lightsource?? isn't the system itself a model? or a just a construct of nif files and tgas???

King Class Scout · « **Reply #2608 on:** January 30, 2011, 08:23:32 AM »

no. there are a bunch of light scources specified for the system the model's in, but not on the model itself. the model's use transparencies to emulate glows. and before you ask, the Nano FX tackons like nav lights don't count as light scources.

Lurok91 · « **Reply #2609 on:** January 30, 2011, 08:32:27 AM »

I would have thought in theory you could export spacedock with interior lighting from max. But you'd only see lighting effect not the light sources themselves.

Duuuuude!!! That is one sweet looking Starbase. Cookie for you!

Given the station a blue tinge and rescaled for the galaxy to fit.

I'm not happy with it as the connie is now lost in the doorway and all the inner features are out of scale.

Dalek · « **Reply #2612 on:** February 01, 2011, 05:39:04 PM »

Perhaps make 2 versions, one to Connie scale and one to Galaxy scale with a few extra edits down to creative license to make them more distinctive?

This could work. One would be Earth Spacedock and the other could be Starbase 74.

The Dalek has a good idea!

I'll have to have a word with SFR&D since it will be released through them

in the mean time I have re-textured the refit into the A this is more than sticking a A onto the reg

Nihilus · « **Reply #2616 on:** February 01, 2011, 07:08:07 PM »

Sweetness

Are you going to make the Impulse units more red on the A? I believe they were more Redish on the A, or at least in Star Trek VI they appeared more Red.

Bren · « **Reply #2617 on:** February 01, 2011, 11:30:18 PM »

Another option is to employ creative licence and put an extra-wide door on one side of the base?

Agreed with both you and Nihilus. The Earth Spacedock version, would be the one that fits a Galaxy Class, and as such the windows on the spacedock would need to be scaled appropriately in relation to the Galaxy. Also, the station would be huge compared to the Connie.

I think everyone would agree to this! Though there was something mentioned in unknown's thread about the creator of the studio model earth space dock wanting to make an addon to the station under the ring that would accommodate the Galaxy.
