Got your email and the ships look great...lol I wish 1.2 was here right now

The Dauntless was not fake, it was the slipstream ship from voyager, check the link that el conquest backed me up with. and why are you so upset about the dauntless, brian has asked for more ship ideas, and thats what we are doing, and he has already said he might do some non canon ships, calm down pnakotus. and also i realized the nova was a small ship i was just throwing it out there. id say the nebula would make the best huge addition, but not important really. if you want a lot of ships and some non canon ones, check out this link Link it has 100 pages of ships, and you can download them, worth checking out, might give you more ideas. great job again

spleeze don't forget to reduce the poly size on the magellan or did you do that already?

Josh did you read that link it says that it was acually an alien ship on the top.

Hey, I hope you are making thumbnails for these...

Dauntless is a new ship sent to them by the Federation, but it turns out to be an alien ship after all.

for you josh_88 so you know that is not a federation based ship.

but we can't entirely rule it out because the ship looks the part but is not the part.

I think what he is trying to say is that the ship was NOT built or designed by starfleet or the federtation. It was in fact a Elaborate trap made by an Alien seeking revenge on the voyager crew. Becasue of thier alliance with the borg (vs species 8472) in doin so stopped the only possible race that could kill the borg thus avenge is family and species.

As for the ship not being real, it was not in the purist starfleet sense. Since it wasnt (as stated above) commissioned or designed or yet even built by the federation.

favorites from that site...
achilles Link

Concord Link

Yamamoto, description says largest federation ship ever built, doesnt give specs though Link

Soulwolf, perhaps the pointyest Link

Nautilus, kind of ugly picture, nice look though 507m Link

hopefully nobody who looks at these will get offended, like with the dauntless, im just trying to throw more ideas at you

Am still keepin my fingers crossed for the constiution & Constellation

and again yes the dauntless was a trap/alien ship/ whatever, but it was in voyager, and it was also a nice looking cool ship, i didnt realize it was technically alien, so in that sense i guess it would be excluded from this group haha.

email worked fine for me brian, i cannot wait for this mod to be available!!!

any thoughts on incorporating ds9 as a starbase or weapons platform perhaps......would be great to see it in there somewhere!!!

Gr8 work....im in awe!!!!

Josh am not against havin it in the game...to me more ships the better. AM just saying i understand why people would call it "Fake"

Yamamoto, description says largest federation ship ever built, doesnt give specs though

spleeze has done the eximus class along with akira class links at the top.

alterans, well there is a total conversion in the works already (not done by me). They have expressed interest in using my federation models, so you –might- see them in that mod as well. As for me doing all the ships myself, the biggest issue is time. I definitely wouldn’t do so many ships for other races. Maybe one-two per ship class, that’s it.


El Conquest, Damn, you remember! : ) I’ve spend a lot of time on that model (started again from the base mesh actually) Things are almost done, but I figured that I would do a couple quick releases before putting more time into that ship. We’ll see it back again one day though. The biggest problem that I have been having is getting the normal mapping working. This was the only ship that was going to use normal mapping (because it has so much external mesh detail), but there were complications, so I might search out another solution to the detail problem.

Dread Pirate Scott, you mean thumbs for the game itself? We’ll the game actually generates thumbs on the fly, however, for some reason unknown to me, this process has failed for the hull thumbs in the ship editor (the ship thumbs work fine) after some version update of GalCiv. I don’t think there will be any problem after 1.2 comes out though.

Josh_88, I hope to have a Concord in there. As for the Yamamoto, it is actually one and the same with the Excimius, but I am not sure how to class her. I guess she could in the Huge after all. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. The size of the escape pods do imply that the ship is pretty damn large. I will compare it with the galaxy and sovereign.

Spaxspore, I will see what I can do : ) Check back soon!

neilo, I am still trying to decide what to do about the starbases. I can certainly throw a few models in there, but as I’ve mentioned , every race might get them! I’ll have to talk to Mrs. Elf about that.

You might want to toss the Nebula class into the 'huge' category. While it's only about the same length as an Excelsior, it's got that honking big Galaxy-class saucer and some really chunky nacelles and engineering section.

HunterADA Ya I think that I will do that. I also think that it's kind of an ugly ship though, so I am still looking for something sexy for another HUGE class ship.

-Brian

ah yea, didnt remember you had the eximus already, and i would like to see the concord, and i do like the magellan too, as long as the poly goes down a little.

I want my shuttle it is mine and I want it

me thinks you can make the dauntless and the norway class and put them in tiny/small for shuttle and medium/large for the dauntless and medium for the Norway

I would apriciate if the pesion in charge of this model would post the name of the person making the model, Jonas "Admiral" Ljungberg i would think... not to meniton ask his promition.

This is a picture of his origonal model, and i belive the base model is one and the same and i think most would agree.

You can reacth him at tekcom3d@hotmail.com

I stared posting the names of the original mesh contributors, but then I got lazy. But you’re right. I will do so with the next models.

I am contacting each mesh owner to ensure that usage is authorized.

Thanks.

Good to hear, remember these peopel have spend alot of time making these and expect noting in returen so the least that can me done is asking them and to post the name of the creator.

MrCapri , Most certainly. I have chosen to first get the models up and running (to see which models are actually going to be used) and then ask permission of each model owner to use them in my mod, removing those models that are denied access. I would never post anything downloadable without full consent. I will post original contributors again though, from now on! Thanks!

-Brian

Hey, those ships look awesome is there any way you could creat a post-mod download with the ships that you have finished aswell only the ones you have permission to use, reason being is i can't wait till i can use these ships

Yea I agree about the Nebula Class. It was designed to be a conversion ship anyhow that triangular area was supposed to be interchangeable for science,survey,cargo,weapons pods etc.. ( sorta almost made for GalCiv2 hehehe..)
