Commander Glorfinder reporting to the Bridge. (it was a time, wasn't it...). Sorry that i havent posted for a long time but ive been really busy... (to be honest ive been loced up to a holiday home for 2 moths... (i hate that when my mother has holidays... thank god this was the last year ill be there...), but i had my laptop with me and i was able to write, so now when i am back ill update the sites, i have already updated the templeate so if you want to take a look and comment just visit http://rain.prohosting.com/stmod/ , and i plan to fill the pages with text and units tonight (25.7.2004) , i am now reading throught the thread, but ill think that ill still need to talk with about what going on kentaarka so be in msn when you can (this applies to other like themorpheus and else.
 
Is it possible to change the graphics for unexplored terrain to something other than black? It can be difficult to get an idea of where you are going because the terrain is mostly black as well. Even just adding a small Star Trek logo to an unexplored square like Kobayashi used to do?

It might be possible. Let me see what I can do after work today. Unless of course Vadus beats me at his own terrain set....

EDIT:
I've tried. Every attempt gets reverted back to the original black fog of war. Sorry. Perhaps Vadus knows a work around. There maybe something I'm missing. In the meantime, play with the grid on. That helps alot.
 
I thought I'd post (for the first time I might add) just how good this MOD looks and I can't wait for it to finish downloading so I can play it!

Hi there :) I was on a one week vacation, thats why I didn't posted...

@Glorfinder: Good to see you back. The new design looks good, I hope you fill it with texts and files soon.
@anarchywrksbest: As far as I know Firaxis once changed the unexplored terrain graphics to hard coded, so there is a file, but changing it got no effect. Unfortunately :(
@DekkonBlack: Yeah it's still active, and thanks for the links, just Civ2 graphics aren't useful ;)
@GIDustin: It went offline, but Glorfinder works on the new one (some time now... ;) )He posted a link a few posts above

@all: I'm not unemployed anymore, so I won't be able to invest as much time as before to work on the mod. That will slow the developing down. But if someone want to help with Pedia graphics/Wondersplashes and/or mapmaking it will be very helpful

If I see some good graphics for the pedia or wonders, I'll share them with you to make sure they are what you are wanting. Then I'll work on putting together what you approve.

Also, I'll start providing pedia graphics for my Borg units.
The Morpheous will be sending me some more 3d meshes so I'll be able to get a few more units into the game. Do you want the pedia graphics to have a certain background color or graphical background? Let me know, so I can make the right image the first time. :)

Do all the maps need to be accurate star trek maps, or can they be random hand created maps? If the latter, I maybe able to do one or two. Perhaps a small map for only the Federation and Borg to recreate wolf359....
 
Thanks Tzar :)
Pedia Pics for unit should look like the ones we already got, the unit facing S or SE on a white background. No matter whats the size of the unit in game, on the pedia pic it should fill most of the pic. Just take a look what Morpheus or my pedia pics look like.

It's hard to find a "accurate map" so randomly created must do. But if you work on something around Sol, the map I created IS accurate (except for the 3rd dimension), so if you could at least keep the distances for stars of that area, it would be nice.
For the Wolf359 scen I was planning to use the Sol sector map, but if you want to create a bigger one, that includes more of the Federation, and maybe some Klingon, Romulan and Cardassian space, just do it ;)
Or whatever you like, maybe Dominion, or Delta Quadrant, or...
Oh, in case you didn't noticed, to put the Labels with the star names in, you need to create a recource with that label as graphic.
 
Yea the cive 2 mod dosnt help i just wanted you to c the unit pics and the research icon look great though it might give some idea instead of just laser unit could llok like that
 
It is I once again (yes i cant stop talking :P)
Links this is a time line site which i find useful if u make a game of turn base event like during each year time on the show event happen like 5 year journey and stuff i think each race should have these event from acient to future which would make the game very interesting like the motion picture a cloud appear or the war between klingon also each era should have it hero when you reach a new age you leader change to the next ship archer-kirk-picard-sisko-janeway

http://stng.36el.com/st-tng/trivia/timeline/trek7-notes.html

the other thing i think you should add is each minor race should get atleast 1-5 ships for defending itself ofcourse not to strong and make them have special and less productive so they well only use to defend there planet and help out once u capture race you get it tect(of course)and its ship design that you can build that have special worth using like extra movement for scouting.ofcourse these r idea im not even sure if u can add in game but though u might like to hear it
some stuff

http://news.slasims.com/index.php

technology

http://www.treknology.8m.com/encyc.htm

last but not least i still cant find a good site with minor race picture and ship model ill continue the search until i find it for u until then ill keep posting startrek site that might help
PS:technology is for the tech tree
PSS:look at my idea and tell me what you think of it and give me some feedback also im still trying to figure how to use the openfx program so it'll be awhile before ships r being made by me

http://www.trekmeshes.ch/

i know this been posted before long ago but incase u forgot here it is again good mesh for civ3 unit im still trying to convert it but here it is in case u wana have a go at it

okok this is my last sentence no more from me until tommorw :)
 
I recently found a great Star Trek map online. Maybe anyone can use it to create a new map? :D
I had to reduce the size though, it's quite too large to be posted as an attachment. So I'm afraid the quality suffered a bit. :( If anyone want the larger, full version, just tell me and I'll to send it to you...
 
Flamand,

Where did you find the map at? I am a big Star Trek fan and would like to see the map at a better quality.
