I like the idea of the HUDs :-)

I just did a test run and noticed a couple of issues:

The door animations are appearing to only work when the crewman who mans the station behind the science console comes in, not for the other two. Screenshots are attached to show what I mean. Also, the helm's LCARS are showing up funny.

Working fine for me. My fault...minor scripting error to fix in later release    Not sure what prob mean with helm lcars.

F2 prob is inherited from orig NX bridge (I think there are a few bridges where F2 is locked to viewscreen so don't take eye off view during battle). Is it worth changing?   Not sure what prob re: video mem.

thanks for feedback  so far

That's what beta testers are here for 

(I think there are a few bridges where F2 is locked to viewscreen so don't take eye off view during battle). Is it worth changing?

My personal opinion: No for two reasons:

1. Most players generally fight outside of the ship anyways so it really wouldn't make a difference to begin with (hence not worth the effort).

2. For the players that do like to battle from the bridge, changing it to face away from the viewscreen would hinder gameplay when using the "manual fire" option. I believe it's a rarely used feature, but why take the chance?

That's my two cents on that issue but whatever you decide I don't think it'll cause a major problem.

Not sure what prob mean with helm lcars.

It looked pretty distorted when I played the bridge (per the screenshot attached in my last post) but I'm not ruling out some issue on my end.

TBH, changeing F2 to look away is not really worth the effort,as Nero said.

it is very easy to fix the viewscreen zoom when hitting f2...  i can do that myself...
ill look into it later today...

Thanks J.  If no other major probs and can do any fixes, should I release to BC?  What's best way to contact Viper and Amaral for perm?  

As mentioned on WIP thread, taking few days out to work on bringing Baz's TMP bridge(s) ingame.  Really nice model and excellent lcars by Bones.  Will be a real beaut if works

[JimmyB76]

Viper and LC are good to go, so long as credit is given...
lemme check out the f2 camera zoom and make sure all is well before you put it to bcfiles tho...

[Hellsgate]

I love this bridge. Any schematics? 

[Lurok91]

Sadly no as based on NX Enterprise bridge.  Can anyone else help? 

[JimmyB76]

one note - in the readme, you should note that the original NX bridge is required previously installed...  on this install i didnt have the NX bridge and as such the bridge didnt work...

second thing - (for tiq) hitting f2 zooms perfectly to the viewscreen...  why would you want to look at felix anyway?  the point of hitting f2 in bridge mode is to be able to take over tactical controls and as such seeing the viewscreen is better, no?
