Default Re: Favorite/Least Favorite Shipset Poll

Developing a scifi theme based Ship set is no easy task. Weather or not they warrent specific credit for being a good set, well HELL yes they do.

The question was not about what set "original" set do you like best, but :

I'm just curious about what everyone's favorite and least favorite shipsets are (just the graphics).


I took this to mean that EVERYTHING regardless of origins was to be considered. Quite frankly, I am getting sick of hearning people ***** that the Trek/B5/SW sets are not original enough. Excuse me for saying this, MANY OF THE SHIPS in these sets are original! A great many hours went into creating, developing, compiling, etc these sets. To dismiss them as "skillful video capture" is insulting and hurtful. (Dispite the face )

Those sets were developled because PEOPLE wanted them, and now they are considered second class?

Come on, all because the person who developed those races for SEIV may not have created all the images, does not mean that they did not spend considerable time making them for SEIV. To dismiss them as unworthy of consideration is indeed unforgiveable.

However, I agree that races developed from exsisting images should be judged on those marrets, and those created using a 3d program should be consider on that. However, since the discrimination has begun, any set created with DOGA should also be in its own catagory since the many of the images are built from exsisting images within the DOGA program's library.

So the way I see it, you have five seprate catagories from which to judge five seprate favorates from;

1. Original Game Races
2. Original Sets created using a 3d program
3. Sets created using DOGA
4. Sets created using exsisting images (Regardless if they have original images created by using 2 & or 3)
5. Hand made drawn images. (Rare)

So from that I now will now post my Favorites.

1. Xaiti
2.
3. Starwolf
4. Dominion
5.

I kind of like the TOS (Trek original) set, except that its portraits make it look like the "Empire of Captain Kirk Clones!"


You can always change the race image. I have considered posting several differant Star Trek Race portraits for use with any Star Trek Set. You just pick the one you like, rename it, and your there.
