Actually, this looks fairly simple to texture.  The main hull doesn't have a very pronounced curvature at the edges, so there won't be much warping.  The secondary hull isn't weirdly curved, so you can simply divide it in four lengthwise and get a good top, bottom, left and right.  Those are Sovereign engines, so those should already have texture sets that you can either map to, or they should have come pre-textured from whatever ship you got them from.

Why not just re-use the textures from the original Krakow & Sobieski models and ask Bones for blank registry textures? That is if you have permission already from him to utilise the kitbashed elements from Bones since its an unwritten rule to ask permission to make model modifications before publically showing images or announcing the mod.

i go for the best(hopefully BC will be able to handle this ship...) shes gonna be able to dispatch of 20 borg in 10 seconds(if hard pointed right) and its gonna have typeXXIII phasers so its gonna pack quite a punch(just like the solaris A does atm)

She will. BC can handle things up to 50k and more. CG nacelles and Bones's body parts wouldn't slow BC down in the slightest.

i think we can compensate for that by making the impulse engines extra powerfull so you dont get as flung as much from firing them....all this talking about her makes me wnt to get started even more!!, but i have to wait for a response on the permissions....  :(

wow does anyone else follow other threads in BC Modding forum?
i think there was a recent one about "Stuff I've been working on, New Sovereign Among Other Things"...  hmmmm now if i could just think of who that author might be...
hmmmmmmm - i think there is a nomination for that guy in BCC's Modder of the Month this month also, a nomination for the CG Sovereign 2.0...  now if i could just think of who that was that has been posting alot lately and possibly find that thread on page 1 of this forum or linked in the polling...
:P

guys - CG has been posting here very recently, i imagine PMing him would get a quick response...
oh, and a quick look at BC Modding forum and youll see Chronological Guy's name lol :P
(btw - it's "Chronocidal Guy")

Sarcasm out of exasperation and possibly the inability to fully accept the fact that you had not even noticed that Chronicidal Guy was posting in this very forum.
