I am currently planning a Wartime Texture Refit of the Galaxy Evo - USS Titan, I am only around half complete by giving it a more armored look. I was wondering if you wanted to do a HP Update and maybe we could release it on BC Files, One of the HP updates I was thinking of was giving it new Photons, upgraded phasers and Quantum's. I was also wondering, is the Textures for the Saucer/Stardrive in the same Data/models/ships/LC titan folder or are they installed in a separate folder? I'll post a couple pics of what i've done so far when I return.

Why did you create a thread for this? Why didn't you pm him.

If I may refer you to this?:

It doesn't say about HPing, but I'm pretty sure that it wouldn't be allowed.

That's why I created this thread. To ask permission and everything, and actually I've sent a ton of people PMs and for some reason don't get any back so that's why I created this thread. I know about that already @CJLarkin, though I was just asking if it would be something he'd be interested in. Though if it's not, I do believe PERSONAL Modifications to mods and ships are legal and legit as long as they're NOT released. If I'm wrong that personal modifications to mods and ships are wrong then this thread can be deleted. Because I've seen numerous modifications to already released ships.

Quite right, it's alright to edit personally, as i've done with some Intrepid Retextures. I'm not really too sure about what you're suggesting though. Still, it's not exactly up to me, let's wait for Legacy to arrive.
-
See the thing is, if people read what I originally posted, I asked if he'd make the updated HP for the ship and all i'd do is toss up some retextures of it.
-
So, this is a mod request then?
-
a mod request as well as a permission request ;)

Pretty much, I downloaded the ship, it's a fine and great ship. I just thought it would look a bit sleeker with some updated graphics and weapons on it. It looks to be a future ship more than something we'd see now in Starfleet (During the Enterprise E's Era) I removed some of the hull marks on it kinda like the points taken from the Intrepid class and put Borg Graphics instead, you'd think it'd look like crap it actually makes it stick out more. Truth was, i was thinking about adding some Borg Shield draining technology on it instead, in the front of the ship there's some light Intrepid like panels, used from the sensors, I replaced that with Borg Graphics and adding the Borg Pulse weapons from the Cube on there to help knock shields out would be pretty wicked, think of it as a experimental ship. Also question, who thinks the Slipstream drive should be added too? To the Saucer HP and Stardrive.

i am almost 100% certain LC does'nt have time to Re HP his ship just because you asked for it.

In defense of fourchan...why is everyone jumping on his back? Yes he should try to PM LC first..but if he hasn't had any luck with PMs like he says he hasn't, then that is what the forums are for. And at least he is asking for LCs help in the project instead of just doing it and rereleasing the ship without permission like so many have in the past. And then you would all be jumping on his back for that. So he is asking permission and asking for assistance and I applaude him for that. I've seen so many modders come and go over the years that just think they can do what ever they want..its a nice breath of fresh air to see a new modder asking permission for something instead of just assuming he can do what he wants. soOoOo Kudos to you FourChan..I love the Galaxy Evo and I am eager to see what you come up with as far as a retexture...screenies please!!!
-
Perhaps instead of spamming this thread argueing with each other, you all should wait until LC himself responds? Perhaps he's simply busy with RL stuff like for example, oh I don't know... Life? Work? Things more important than modding :P
-
OK everyone, LC is busy with work ATM and will probably be too busy to look here for the next week or so.
In terms of the request, considering he is currently spending all his time on art for Excalibur I can't see it very likely that he would be wanting to do this however if he does he can always PM you and let you know.
In the meanwhile I am going to lock this thread since it has fulfilled its purpose; in future please use the PM system when you wish to communicate with an individual member on BCC.

Ok guys,
The permission part works out for this and to all other requests; sometime ago i did cut down all new permissions to derivative work from my models.
In plain words, i'll not garantee any permission for releasing any of my model altered in any instance. Permissions i gave before this policy stand.
Portings to other games will be analysed by scenario.
As for editing the hp of the Titan, as a matter of fact i did not done it as i hardly do HPs these days and Zambie Zan did it, also, guys are pretty right on this, i have barely time to breath, not enough to install stuff needed to change it.
Sorry.
