STNG Ship Set Available.

Atrocities · #1 January 25th, 2007, 04:32 PM

I made a ship set today using the TMP race as a template. I added five TNG ships and their bmp images to the new ship set. The models all opened correctly in the X viewer and look good.

As far as I know the set should work, but whenever I try to use it, the game crashes.

Can someone take a look at what I have and tell me what the problem is? Thanks

At where is the FedTNG_Ships_XFileClasses.txt? Also I notice some the sizes of the pics aren't matching the ones in stock. But I would start with the missing file then troubleshoot from there. As soon as you get this working sign me up for a copy! Can you PM me with a copy so I can have the privileged of saying I tried it first?

I have updated the files. I was missing some images. However now the game will load, but WON'T use any of my models. I suspect this might have something to do with some obscure setting or something.

Ok I got everything to mostly work. However my ships are really really small. I need to fix this.

Here is the revised set. It works in the game but the ships are really really really really small.

I don't know how to make them larger. I need help here.

Ok, I figured out how to adjust the size of the ships, however the orientation is off. They are nose down. Man this is a lot of work!

Well it took me all day to do this, but I am finally done. The set is completed. It is my first set so please keep that in mind. I hope you enjoy it.

Atrocities please see attached file. Load it into your ST:TNG set and look at the Destroyer hull size. That is all I had time to do this morning. If you like I will work on the rest after getting home. Now time to go taint some young minds to the Space Empires series; and you know teach them some social science crap too. But mainly Space Empires!

Congratulations Atrocities!
Now that the ice is broken I am eager to see your other 99 races adapted to SE V.

One small problem I encountered: there seems to be no AI design creation.

This is the fully working set. I have done all the sips slots. They didn't come out even across the sizes but the models themselves aren't even. I decided to go with the models instead of some kind of gradual increase in number of slots. The way I think of it with three decks the actual number of slots per deck shouldn't matter. I also got the ones like drones and fighter that weren't showing up fixed. Hope you like it. It is in zip format this time so you know what to do with it. Unzip and replace the file there.
