Birth of the Federation

Much better!

fed_destroyer_i
fed_transport_iii
fed_scout_i

are also a bit on the light side...

And fed_medical_ship_i is missing?

Updated mayor civs ships to 640*480
extract Resources folder in game(root) folder and overwrite all.

Some of those images are too... light? (as opposed to dark)
Especially the Dom and Fed ones - fed_cruiser_i is the worst of them all AFAICT.

Now that's more like it.
Looks great.

B looks a bit weird in that the planets' orbital plane is "above" the star's center. C is more accurate I guess, though if the star's radius was made smaller it could show a bit more of the star itself. Something in between B and C would probably look best - that is, a star with the radius of B but ...

Found the PM you sent me, but the link is no longer active (page not found).

awhile back I gave iceman the models used in MPR++ (3DS, bmp, bump and light textures) so I was just curious if he was using them. zip file had 18 borg models 29 card models 18 dominion models 60 fed models 10 ferengi models 48 klingon models 62 minors models 12 monsters models 42 romulan models 29...

SCI vs SCO That's pretty much what we currently have, except for Range (which is the same for both) and Sensor Range (which is reversed). Notice that if you make science ships have longer sensor range, you'll have them being used as pickets/sentries/scouts instead of scouts. Which doesn't make any s...

(Edward class)

Are they using the same model?

They sound great. I've already replaced the main menu one, and will also add the others for when I can code them in.
Thanks!

(I might re-upload the SoundFX zip again because I noticed an issue with the system assault screen ones)

Yup. Medium range. So, science ships have LR and scouts MR? Won't that just invite you to use science ships instead of scouts to, hmm, scout? :wink: Frigate will be low speed short range but cheap maintenance. It's got similair firepower to a destroyer but it's low range and speed make it more suit...

Surveyer: cheap science vessel with little combat effectiveness. Scout: fast but shorter range with better defences than a surveyer. By this I guess you mean the Scout has a shorter range than the Science Ship - but still has "long" range, I assume? Else I'm not sure it'd be much of a Scout :wink: ...

Looking good. I think it needs to pulse a bit slower though, but I'm sure you have that covered. Uploaded an update on the soundfx to BB. As usual, feedback is welcome. This will probably be what'll be in the next release. Since a couple of people didn't seem to like the fact that retreating fleets ...

hehe

I need to locate some of BotF's sound files to add to Supremacy. Calling for some help with this, since there are 1300+ sounds and I don't have the time to go through them all. If anyone can help with this, it's greatly appreciated! Sounds needed: - "Terraform order confirmed" (all but Cardassians @...

Wow, that's 45 ships not counting non-combat ships, and stations. That's a lot of ships, and a lot of models... balance (and purpose) will be a nightmare.
You'll probably not be able to get as many ships for the other major civs.

I'll be interesting to see how this will turn out!
