I'm not good at retexturing bridges from scratch, so this was a cut and paste job from the First Contact Refit Excelsior bridge. There are some things like the LCARS and some panels to alter so that it is a Miranda Class ship. Enjoy! :)
-
awesome! i love seeing TMP bridges (Connie, Miranda, Ent-B, etc) "updated" to later eras... :D

Plus, there was a Miranda class seen in the fleet battle in First Contact.

Good luck. My bridge entry is the exact same thing (with the exact same idea) but I have to rebuild it after the HDD crash. Good luck with the lightmaps in the ceiling, that part is a pain in the ass. Bones might have some suggestions since his lightmap is fairly tame (I'm asking him, anyways) :P.
-
I love it but it seems too similar to the FC Excelsior bridge. I know the big difference is the helm/ops console and the lack of alcove at the rear of the bridge but just quickly glancing at it you could mistake it for the FC Excelsior bridge.
But I love it! :lol:
-
I'm getting there. All I have left is to fix the back panel for the Master Systems Display, red alert bars, the View Screen, and a few other miscellaneous things.
-
Is one of the miscellaneous things recolouring the status display to match the FC color scheme?

The downside of that is not knowing if your ship is going to critical or not, but I see your point. Overall, the retexture is complete. :)
-
Not necessarily. You could use the same light purple (dare I say, almost lilac) color from the MSD and simply and in small red/ yellow colored sections as the ship takes on more damage.
-
Good idea. :)
-
I'm loving that MSD! :lol:
-
awesome MSD! :D
but what about the chairs? they look untextured, unless theyre supposed to be light grey like that?

I fixed the chairs by adding more detail. I also altered the shield display so different areas of the ship will look like they are taking damage.
-
It looks very nice. You should try to make the shield display resemble data's console from Nemesis

Another good idea. I'll look into it.
-
It's time for me to give you a cookie Wiley. I really like the tactical display. Seeing that makes me smile.
-
The new shield display is up and running. It looks like there is an error whenever the ship takes damage, the shields display shows the upper and lower shield quadrants being completely lowered- this is the same with the regular Miranda bridge.
-
Wiley I'm so in love with this bridge now! :D
-
wow dude! well done!! :D
-
Thanks everyone! :) I would really like to know how to fix the shield display. I also just realized that I'm probably "disqualified" from the ROM contest since most of the retexture work came from the FC Excelsior bridge and not made from scratch.
-
Even if you are disqualified, you could still ask for permission to release it? It is very pretty and FC'ish and we can never have enough bridges.
-
the whole "ROM" thing is still a beta, a WIP; so there are no disqualifications as yet...
besides, it doesnt matter if most of the retexture is from another bridge, youve done enough for this one to qualify it as its own :)
-
Well, I did explicitly state in the rules that every texture on the bridge must be replaced or altered. While this contest is a beta, it would not be fair to guys like kirk and Bones who are going all out with their projects (and no offense to Wiley but everything but the rear wall and active display can be done in just an hour or two (I've done it as well).
I would very much like to see this bridge released on it's own and it certainly would be a good reference to show how powerful rwtexturing could be, but it needs a lot more work done to be elligible for the contest. This isn't criticism, it's just being fair.
-
OMG EPIC BRIDGE DEFINATLY DESERVES A COOKIE(if i could give em) AND ALSO WHEN IS THIS GOING TO RELEASED?.....I WOULD LOVE TO USE THIS...AND JIMMY I KNOW THIS IS OVER 30 DAY OLD AND YES IM ASKING FOR A RELEASE DATE BUT I WOULD REALLY LOVE TO SEE THIS RELEASED BECAUSE I WOULD SO LOVE TO USE THIS WITH MY MIRANDA CLASS SHIP MOD.

1. Don't use all capital letters when typing a response, it usually means you are yelling.
2. People hate it when people bump really old threads.
3. I do not know if it will be released. I haven't asked permission yet.
-
oh soz it was a caps lock glitch(damn linux keyboard)
its a shame that it wont be released.....that would have gone perfect for the reinactment of the battle in FC(doing it for different ships)
and soz i bumped...but it was so cool...i coulnt help myself!!!
:) :) :( :assimilate :s :s :s :( :( :(

oops double posted....hurry up and ask permission!!!
lolz :s :dance :s lmao

hurry up and ask permission!!!
You asking me to hurry up will not make the process go any faster. Also, please do not highlight your text in any colors. It makes it even harder to read. Also, try to reduce your usage of smileys. There are other threads where you can do that.

I was about to say the same :P
-
sheesh i cant be creative around here can i?(lolz)
wiley.....how do you make textures like you do...like what program do you use?
-
Adobe Photoshop.
-
cs3 or cs4?
-
cs3 or cs4?
i believe it does not really matter.
-
oh.....wish i could get this dang bridge!........it would be great for missions involving a miranda class thats hailable.
-
if you like it then download FC Excelsior bridge, Willey used textures from it so both bridges are almost the same (except model and few texture changes)
-
AND JIMMY I KNOW THIS IS OVER 30 DAY OLD AND YES IM ASKING FOR A RELEASE DATE
please dont do it again ok?
this is not a request...
