On my site (linked below) in the current version of the multi-era mod, click on the EAW lmage on top of the home page.

I consider it a beta, as it still has many ??? throughout the game.

My overhall of it will include getting rid of the ??? and adding some new ships, including this Scimitar.

do the images work yet?


At present the mod is a big download. The final update will place all eras on the desktop as shortcuts, and be as complete as I can make it.

I will also take into account 56k-ers. The mod will get split up into smaller parts.

It's hard to give a release date for a project of this magnitude other than to say I will do it, and it will be 'this year'.  

Thanks for your interest.

Title: Specs on Scimitar
Post by: Chris Jones on January 22, 2003, 05:58:01 am
I tried the plasma idea but it did not seem realistic enough to me (Used Plasma S).
Remember the look of the weapons hitting the Enterprise E from above -- much like a Hellbore look I thought.

Here's what think is really bad-a**.. (and looks cool)

Designation: R-SCM
BPV: 2826
Crew: 177 (limited by the game)
Marines: 70
Shield 1: 500
Shield 2 & 6: 500
Shield 3 & 5: 500
Shield 4: 500
Total Shields: 2550

Movement Cost: 2
Turn Mode: B
Total Warp Power: 381
Impulse Power: 127
Aux Power: 127
Total Engine Power: 508
Battery: 127
Armour: 127
Excess Damage: 18 (Max allowed by game)

Transporters: 6
Tractors: 6
Mech Tractors:
Shuttles: 2 (max 10)
Fighters: 24 (max allowed by game)

44x Disruptor 4
52x Hellbore
1x PPD  (to simulate tractor beam look - or just another bad-a** weapon)

Some weapons not visible on UI  

Taken from Shipedit

Note: This ship can be defeated.. with a fleet, lol.

don't know about the Nemesis add-on.. , but here's the Scimitar model for your pleasure.

This mod looks exciting! I have a newbie question about it: Is a mod the same thing as a "mission"? I have SFC: OP and it came with an Extra Missions disc. This disc would then have extra mods?

By the way, excellent work there!

Thanks..

A Mod is a modification of the original game. It can involve just different specs.. but in my case it involves new ship models.

A Mission can but does not have to involve modifications of the original game.   Your OP Missions are not considered mods.

A mission is a set of events you must go through to accomplish something.  

I invite you to look at my website linked below to see what I have done with the SFC series. Don't be alamed by the size of the downloads. I tend to do things on a grand scale.

for EAW  -- there is a Multi-Era online now.. as a beta.. but most of it does work..  I am looking this year to make it better.

Hope this helps.

Chris

Thanks for the model, Chris. Do the hardpoints for the rom bb work on it?
Title: Hardpoints
Post by: Chris Jones on January 25, 2003, 05:59:58 am
They will but, it will not completely accurate.

If you use this in EAW or OP, Use Hardpoints 1-11 for Disruptors/Hellbores and 12-25 for Ph4s.

I also tried using 12-25 for Hellbores in EAW, but the game crashed a lot when using the Scimitar as an AI.

I simply overwrote the DDX class models with the scimitar. Worked very well.
