plugins?

Post by jimbods9 »

Could someone please tell me if there are open flight plugins that work with 3dsmax 3? I have polytrans but it is missing the serial number and it wont convert. I have a working copy of 3dsmax but am having difficulty finding the flt exporter. Thanks.

no, only program is MultiGen-Paradigm Creator 3.0 that will export to proper flt format.

Has anybody suggested the NX refit yet? This could make a good upgrade stage in game if the mod is using ENT era ships. I hear tell if Enterprise had gotten a fifth season they would have given the ship a refit as so....

And here's an animated video, the refit NX begins at about 8:22.

Actually it's 2011 calendar.

Ah, yep you were right there suggesting it on page one. ;)

One thing I wonder about in that refit schematic... they have a new bigger deflector on the secondary hull, which makes sense, but why is the original NX deflector still there on saucer section? Seems like that should have been removed just like the original engine room was.

Perhaps it was left on serving a different purpose, reconfigured or replaced with maybe a deep space scanner or upgraded communications array ;)

i would say no to a secondary deflector, just because of the power requirements of 2 separate deflectors, not to mention ships with 2 deflectors werent introduced until the 2370s when we saw the Intrepid class and later the Nova class. but thats just my thought :)

I'd like to see the Galaxy-X for UDM III. I know there's one from All The Ages but was hoping someone would make one closer to the Galaxy in UDM.

A TMP Akula Class as a destroyer.

I think a Sydney Class would also be nice as a transport or colony ship for the Feds, or maybe a Hope Class.

I was also thinking that a new K't'inga resembling the IKC Amar or the ones used in "Way of the Warrior" would be a nice compliment to the Vor'cha and Negh'var in UDM III.

The current textures look ok and better than the original, but it still has the flat bridge and reddish color on the torpedo tube instead of looking like that frightening black hole that looks like it's going to fire a large torpedo at you.

Hi all,

Would it be possible to get a Klingon and Romulan D7? I figure a simple re-skin of the K't'inga would be perfect. To be clear, here is a K't'inga, which is in many mods such as UDM:

Here is a Klingon D7:

and the Romulan variant, not the 'bird' painting on the bottom ala the Bird of Prey:
