Star Trek unit preview thread

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

Sure thing. Still need the star trek ground units btw?

 

[Flamand]

Oh yes... You see any chance of making a couple of those?

Got a little idea for an upgraded Borg tactical sphere: the icosahedron. I guess they invented it when they assimilated the entire Italian national soccer team...

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

lol.................

So you'll make the fighter for me?

 

[Flamand]

I'll give it a try in exchange for some ground units...

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

Alright. I'll make three generations of starfleet away teams for you, right after I find those uniforms again...and a way to do phasers.

Well, first of all: welcome to Civfanatics and thanks for the links and the compliments...

The models of Trek game are in either mod or sod format, which need to be converted by my good friend Thorgrimm. Unfortunately he's been busy, so I'm a bit behind schedule...

Just wondering: who are the Noxter from that Armada site?

 

[Dekkon]

well i never really seen em in startrek they might be made up kinda look like shadow race oh and cant use any of em oh well wish i knew how to make models lol but dont got the time but not the skills bummer xD

 

[Flamand]

If you wish there are plenty of tutorials on how to make units for at least 5 different versions of modelling software and I'd be willing to help out myself if needed...

 

[Dekkon]

lol ok im using the one that morpheus is using but is very complex xD i got no clue where to start i try reading his forum but still kinda hard which do u use and is it ezer if it is i would rather use that lol

 

[Flamand]

I use 3ds Max, which has great tutorials, but it is rather expensive to buy... Lightwave is much cheaper and lots of support groups...

 

[Dekkon]

oh well i saw another forum with help for openfx it looks good so ill lear from that ill tell u when i figure it out xD

 

[Flamand]

Good luck! But unfortunately Open FX is not known for its user friendliness...

 

[Dekkon]

i think i kinda figured it out got any model u need me to try my new skill on? xD ill give it a try for ya

 

[Flamand]

What kind of models can you import in OpenFX? 3ds and obj, or still something else? And what race would you like to try?

 

[polyphemus]

Good luck! But unfortunately Open FX is not known for its user friendliness...

i thought it was pretty user friendly

@Dekkon: there are plenty of tutorials for Openfx in the tutorial secttion of this forum

@ flamand: you can import .3ds, .dxf, and .stl

lol ok im using the one that morpheus is using but is very complex xD i got no clue where to start i try reading his forum but still kinda hard which do u use and is it ezer if it is i would rather use that lol

i think the link is in my sig

 

[Flamand]

I have plenty of 3ds models that still need to be made... Any preferred race?
