I'd like to see Tholian-style energy-style ships.

Energy? I thought they were crystalline... and what's with the blue "windowy" things on a gray hull? I thought Tholian ships were orange... those shots, while cool, do look too much like a possible Federation fighter prototype rather than some truly alien vessel http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

I refuse to try out the mod unless it contains the "crimson forcefeild!"

I'm curious, Fyron, why you're so adamantly opposed to the idea of a new shipset for the game ? This seems almost personal, as if a new Tholian shipset was some sort of an affront to you.


Huh? What are you talking about? The only thing I am "opposed to" is your dismissal of Oleg's work because it doesn't match your vision of what is "Tholian." You butter it up in effort to hide it, but it is still blatant. I'm not sure where you're getting the rest of this from...

Oleg made a great set. I wish I could have gotten him to send me his complete metal textured set though. All I can do is try to make a nice looking set based off of Olegs sets. I have had several people request a alternate tholian and orion set so there is a demand for them.

Oleg where are you buddy?

To set the record straight - I NEVER dismissed Oleg's work. In truth, this is what I said about it:

Quote:

I wasn't dissin' Oleg, or his shipset. In point of fact, I said it was a good one. If you are looking for a crystalline shipset, it's great.

It just doesn't resemble the Tholians from the series, or have the same "character" as the remainder of the "Star Trek" shipsets. That's all.

I didn't butter anything up. I said exactly what I thought, given the venue I was talking about.

The entire "theme" of the Star Trek Mod, and of <font color="red">AT</font>'s efforts in developing all the Race-specific shipsets for it, has been one of holding as faithful as possible to the Star Trek universe. Each shipset he developed has been done with the thought in mind of trying to maintain the "look &amp; feel" of the ST series and movies. With this thought in mind, in my personal opinion, the existing Tholian shipset, while both cleverly original and very good, does not maintain that specific "look &amp; feel" that so much effort has been put into.

So, when <font color="red">AT</font> asks
Quote:

Should I redo the tholian ship set?

I said yes, and why I thought it was a good idea as well. I'm hardly the "politically correct" type and not prone to "buttering things up, as the conversations between you and I have demonstrated. I am enthusiatic about my opinions, and don't hesitate to say so. I don't care if it is in opposition to someone else's opinion and I'm pleased if my viewpoints have a favorable outcome. Nothing wrong in saying what you feel and sticking to it, so long as you don't do so to be malicious. And I never was.
