I love it.  The ship is WZ quality work.  It looks almost perfect.
The hardpoints work, but they need to be altered.  The Heavy HPs turned to Phaser HPs, and Phaser HPs to Heavy.  Right now, phasers fire from the photon launcher.  The photons fire from the phaser emitters.

Im glad you like her chris  i ended up using the Alpha channel to get the lightmaps on the sauser then made the rest up as i went i wanted to get the lightmaps as canon as i could but i also wanted her to look stunning in low light  so i added a few spot lights here and there

Hey F_W let somebody make a Nebula from it... I can't wait myself to see a Nebula class from it ;D

A Galaxy X would always be sweet to have out of this.  Or at least a Dominion War upgrade with that Gray mark down her Star drive and Phaser Strips on the Nacelles.

Don't they have a Nebula, Galaxy X, and Venture refit on BC?  We could convert those too.  :-D

um I don't want to put a stinker on things but you've completely missed the battle section phasers off the neck, pylons and the pairs around the rear torp and below. Any chance you can rectify it? I tried myself but Milkshape hates teh poly count and it does detract a lot from the detail. :( Great conversion other than that though :)

I did notice the Phasers are gone but I think that is because the only Phasers in Bridge Commander are the two main ones to begin with.  But I never really cared if they were there or not, the model looks great as it is.  But one thing that I did notice is that when I viewed the ship in the Mod Viewer the textures for the Phaser strips were not there.  It is just white.  But its not really important as long as they work in the game, and they do.  I just thought it was weird.

Um no all of them are used and also you are missing the point that its meant to be as true to the real model as possible.

Marky, it's actually a conversion from a BC custom-made model by a BC modeler named "Scotchy".

Were they?  I have actually only played the Demo version and the only Phasers that worked were the main two on the saucer.  I guess they all work in the full version.

In my opinion, BC didn't last long for me, enjoyability-wise.  The mod installer things got too complicated for me back around 2002, and I played multiplayer online for a short while before I gave up.  I was about to get it until I got Klingon Academy again at Christmas 2003 (I lost it around August 2001), and decided playing that again.  Gameplay and mod-wise I say KA was better, and it gave me much memories, be it whilst playing Single Player or Multiplayer.  Don't get me wrong, BC's probably good now with more visual eye-candy, but I'm if-iffy on reinstalling it and getting all sorts of things that you don't normally need for installing mods in KA or SFC, for example.  Plus, I'm running out of space... *shrug*
I also didn't notice the missing phaser strips until recently.  I was too amazed at someone converting Scotchy's Galaxy, and I was tinkering with the ID Illumination and normal ID texture maps to pay attention... *shrug* Still, it would be nice for an update, if bothered.  That, and hardpoints for SFC2. :) But that's probably asking too much, and I should be glad with what I have.  And I am, at the moment.

Scotchy has a really nice Akira up.  Hope someone will convert it.  Please!!

Also these ones would be nice:

Also, the pictures of the BC model show phaser strips that are missing on the conversion.

Actually I have been hoping to buy Bridge Commander.  I enjoyed it.  Modding it sounds hard but I thought modding Grand Theft Auto would be hard and it turned out to be easier than modding SFC after getting used to it.  I am glad to hear that the real Bridge Commander has accurate weapons.  The Demo irritated me because the Galaxy was so defenseless.  She only had two Phasers and three Photon Launchers.  That sucked, she is supposed to have like three Photons and 11 Phasers.  Oh and that is one nice Akira.  But I’m still geared towards a Nemesis Sovereign.  I think the Nemesis Sovereign was the most beautiful Sovereign, its just that the movie was aimed at fast paced action that we never got to see any beauty shots like in First Contact.  Although I got Goosebumps when they first showed her flyby in Nemesis.
