Birth of the Federation

@jonsin:

Thanks for posting this tip. :-) Just tried and you're right. Works like a charm.

Geon, glad you posted this one up again :-). Good work on this. There are plenty of really good ideas for developing a Mod with the Borg. Even though I must agree with snapper421 in part, there are some things I doubt can be implemented with the game's engine and mechanics. But reading your post I f...

On either thunderchero's or my own site, you will find the most up-to-date version of UDM III. The file is called "updated UDMIII3.0.h.rar". Sorry for any inconvenience with small patches and hot-fixes. We try to look through every small thing before releasing a new update, but keeping tra...

Hello everyone! Sorry for my prolonged absence, but once my PC was back up at the start of this weak, my health gave in and I spent some nice cozy days in bed... As a wise Doctor from Georgia once said: It never rains, but it pours. ;-) I have to very much thank thunderchero for taking over and keep...

@Thunderchero Damn good job on the Bird-of-Death! :D Looks like you got that damn thing broken down! I don't even want to imagine how long it took you to get it done. Looks absolutely great! No good news from my part though. Unfortunately, my PC decided to jump on me with a total system failure, inc...

In the course of utilizing the recent breakthroughs regarding the shiplist and ship functionality, we are planning to add even some more new ships to the game. The Klingons will get a good deal of new toys, and we are going to lose the last few remaining vanilla models... ;-). As a small (and early ...

It is quite possible to add new icons to simulate binary or trinary stars, but replacing them in combat is a whole different story. Stars have own Hob models and textures and trying to replace them could prove difficult, even though it is probably not impossible. Imho, I think JBL has a point with h...

@JBL, for the next update of UDM III, we are indeed planning to add some new ships to our Klingon friends... ;-).

Cheers,

Most of the new models are not made from scratch, but were originally done by other authors. To get them to work with BotF, however, these models are then subjected to a very drastic conversion process, which changes just about everything from model geometry, polygon count, texture mapping, layout a...

The corrected exe is also available on my site now as well. Thanks to thunderchero and DCER for so quickly resolving this issue :-). The most recent findings will be implemented as soon as time permits, and without promising too much, I can say that we will add some really cool new stuff and also ne...

Geon,

of course I remember both your elaborate posts on the canon Borg as well as our "little" discussion on the issue ;-).

It may please you to hear that I found your introduction post to the canon Borg. I'll send it to you via PM.

Cheers,

These animations are replacements for the gas giants at Bajor (wormhole) and Volon (the Badlands, for the Maquis). The side effect is random wormholes in systems throughout the game. I recall somebody suggesting that the slots for Uranus and Neptune be used to create unique animations for Bajor and...

Just a note of information: The corrected version of UDM III 3.0.H containing thunderchero's fix for the special ship slots is now available for download on my 4shared site, too (Thanks for the quick work, pal).

Sorry for any inconvenience this bug may have caused.
