Star Trek Mod (Division of Labor?)

Thanks SJ. BTW, can I borrow some of your component imrovements (i.e. command component levels, etc) for this mod?

Since the guy who wrote up the campaign wanted credit for his work (understandably so), here is the link to his data files - it will give you some idea of what the Triangle is and the general layout of the area...

Ideas are here for the taking.

Here is a brief outline of the races that will appear in the Triangle Mod (sources - the Star Clash material and SCII)...

Excellent news! I just managed to get ahold of a copy of the Triangle supplement on Ebay - still in the shrinkwrap no less! (I had to lose about 4 hours sleep and phaser a snipe to do so, but hey, that's life.

). That means I will be able to build the thing pretty much up to "canon" (except for the ship models).

Life is good.

I would be happy to give you the models, but you must understand that DOGA has a high poly count and the models don't look all that good in the game.

Probably so, but what the hey, how can you have a Star Trek Mod with no Klingon D-7's or Romulan Warbirds?

I'll be happy to take them, but you tell me - would you rather see a mod with somewhat befitting ST ships (even if they're a bit rough), or a mod that just renames the existing shipmodels?

I myself would prefer the ST ships...

You ain't kiddin'.

I'm plowing through coding in the star systems now. It should take just about as long as it took Cyrano Jones to pick up all those Tribbles...

Atrocities says he has some ST ship models - hopefully when Shrapnel gets around to fixing their upload function we can take a look at them.

Truth to tell, if I didn't like this Triangle campaign idea so much, and if I wasn't dying to try some of the new tricks I'm cooking up, I'd be tempted to throw in the towel. SEIV this ain't.
