I am good with meshes and am equally as good with skinning. And as for programming and coding... I can pick it up pretty easily. I know Basic and a little of c++ ( i'm still learning.)

Now... I am thinking it would be cool to have a star trek TOTAL conversion for this game.

General Comments please? I would need alot of help. As I'm not too clued up on star trek ship specifics.

Does anyone think this kind of conversion would be possible?

Oh i would have posted this in the modding, Scripting section but i'm not able.

Too right, you want to convert teladi to cardasian and argon to federation ect.,, and hey the kwaak could be the dominion, jemhadar, exelent
but what you really need is the soveriegn and enterprise can take the place of the argon one. You want the ferengi for pirates, that would be sooo... cool!

a Star Trek mod probably would be cool.. but contain some radical changes when compared to the show. Except for starbases, repair facilities and shipyards, and a few defense platforms no real space facilities were ever seen on TV or movie. It seems that the major production is still planet-bound unlike in the X-universe.

Besides the inconsistency of the jumpgates whereas the Trek ships travel FTL with their warp drives. ^^

Why not have a genaral all round Sci/fi ship mod....1-2 ships from each film/series making up each race in X.

ie:
For khaak we have Gould / Species (insert number here as I forgot)/ Borg (They are half Biological lifeform) / B5 evil things (Missed that whole show :( ) ect....

For Xenon we have Cylon / Borg (Half machine) / Terminator aircraft (Yes they were for atmosphere flight only but they'd make cool spacecraft) ect...

As well as Startrek and Starwars ships I'd especially like to see the
Space 1999 Eagle (Argon Mercury resembles it slightly)
Blakes7 Liberator (XT Xenon MO resembled it (the pointy bits onit)...only slightly though)
Flash Gordon (orig BW ship :) TS ship maybe)
Farscape Moya (Could be a TL transporter)
Aliens Sulaco(sp)(could be an M1/M2) and the Dropship (Definitely an M3)

Anyone think of other type ships that could be included in this?

Call it "The Ultimate X2 Scifi Mod" or something like that.

Moya would be brillant.

I think I agree with all of the suggestions you made.

I hadn't thought of the Goa'uld, but they could work nicely.

The boron could be the fish people from Star Wars.

And the Teladi could be the... Gorn? Yes, I think was the Gorn from Star Trek.

Well.... why make a mod at all? Let's just rename every race ;-)

There are so many great ideas and proposals around here - it is really making me sad, expecting that only few of them (or maybe none :shock: ? ) will be realized...

The hard bit will be creating the models of the ships...so we'll all have to be very nice to the 3D'ers....the easy bit will be sticking them in.

Star Wars mod would be awesome, although it is a personal fantasy of mine to recreate the universe of Freelancer with the depth of X2, but thats because I have a wierd attachment to that game. And Argonaught, mixing ships from different shows into one mod is kind of tacky, and not very real. I personally don't want another FL:TNG on my hands, although as illogical and bizzare as that mod was, it was strangly entertaining... :roll:

Sure, why not! And the Split could be... *odd bang noise heard*

Ahem, sorry about that, the wild dreamer side got loose again.

Currently, if anyone was crazy enough to actually do a complete conversion of all the races ships, ST or SW would have the ship base to handle it. Farscape has, pretty much, Moya and... [Bad guys who's name I'm forgetting].
Stargate is the nearest close competitor, with Goa'uld, Asgard, human.

How would it be tacky?...what would make it tacky?...How in gods name does wanting to own the finest ships of every scifi show make a mod to make it possible tacky?

And whose to say a universe with ships from all scifi shows doesn't exist?

This is a mod I'd like...with ships I've listed because I like these ships.
I know I've missed a ship or two from other shows ie: Red Dwarf(TL) Star Bug(TP)

Is that Freelancer? If so haven't got the game so can't really comment on that mod.

Tacky????...... TACKY!!!!! :o :o

You get as 'tacky' as you want Argo. I'll be right behind you playing your mod :D ... if it ever gets realised :) :)
I'd much rather regret the things I've done, than regret those I haven't.
