so after a few games I got to work on the games files well it turns out you can mod pretty much everything in the game
after just 1 afternoon of trying

Modding wise the models are in .x format all the other modding is done with Notepad its pretty easy
I`m doing a total conversion of the game too star-trek
I got my hard copy off ebay.co.uk I`m from the uk
did check the us site its not cheap on there :(
May have to buy a Download version it looks like :( they cost abit more you can get it on Steam they sell it
its missions and free roaming for the most part but its pretty good no one on one skirmishes as far as I can see yet
still digging deeper into it

On USA Amazon; there's a regular and a gold version both UK imports. Will that be comparable with me in the US :laugh:
Sounds dumb but when I was in London things seems a little out of the ordinary, cars, the dialect, the food. How are the keyboards like, identical layout :huh:
Just kidding. Lol
Shall I get gold version. Sounds better.
Will I be able to obtain plugins for x format in gmax
not been able to find a .x plugin for gmax :( normal setup I use I do everything I need in gmax export in .mod then use Ultimate Unwrap3D to export to .x format its way I got to do it
but its np I can sort out what ever ships you need in .x format you know me I LOVE TO MOD :)

DD, I havent bought the new game, can you upload a video of a battle scene(star trek mod) with the new modification you did to it?
Adam
I`m still building the mod its a lot of work hoping for a small release in a few weeks time so far 20 ships are done and 8 starbases takes me awhile each model has to be remapped to a Single texture map and making icons and such takes time but well worth it Starbases play a big role in this game as you repair and buy your systems from them plus its where you get all the ships from
all ship systems weapons,shilds etc can be replace on the ships so you pretty much have what you like on your ship if you got the ingame money to buy them
not looked at weapons just yet just getting the base mod build that come abit later
so far done search and rescue ,Escort missions ,search and destroy missions
also found a place ingame where you do one vs one play which is cool you bet if you can beat the other ship :P
I do plan on a video when I get time just got to install software to take ingame video so people can see whats its like

you could cheat a bit for the texture thing... max has a way to burn a texture map for you depending on what version you are using... I think FOAS had a vid he made on how to do that years ago.

You all grown up in your picture Mackie, :coolsmiley:
I played the demo with the sample ST mod, very much enjoyed, with new sfx, textures, etc... This could be awesome.
hah, damn well should be too. got into sfc in my teens and now im in my thirties. tried starpoint gemini, i am impressed.
the game is an awesome basis.
but its going to take a whole lot more than that to get the old crowds attention if theyre even alive anymore :P

Beautiful work. Have you deciphered the weapon textures for alterations yet?
Not yet still adding in ships and bases its taking me awhile to do but will woth it I know almost everything in the game can be changed :)
so far 30 ships and 8 starbases done from 5 races
plan for mod
step 1 . add a lot of ships and bases 100+ so there is lots to pick from right now they all use the same setup
step 2 . spec all ships for shields and weapons eg. how many wepons slots a ship has and what class of shields it can use plus how fast the ship can travel
Step 3. Mod weapons to look like trek weapons :) and work out if new weapons can be added
For warp the game use`s T-drives they kind of like Warp engines short jumps across the sector works well just need to see
if it be modded to do other things
For modding the game all you need is Notepad,photoshop and software that can export .x format I use Ultimate Unwrap3D for importing .mod files and Exporting to .x files that the game uses
When I get time I`ll do up a Tutorials & Guides on how too add Ships and Bases to the game.

What kinda texture maps does it support? ie alpha channels, specularity, etc?
-
What kinda texture maps does it support? ie alpha channels, specularity, etc?
all of the above and bump maps
the texture map has to be a single one unlike sfc which you use as many as you like but had np
we mapping models to use a single texture it don't take me too long
Darkdrone
-
what are the sky boxes like for this? are those asteroids models, sprites or just part of the skybox
Those are real asteroids models you can hit them and damage your ship even destroy it lol
you also mine them for ore which you then sell to get money to buy weapons,systems and ships
the skybox if I rember right is 3-5 textures per space background which you can change

I tried to figure out the demo but couldn't even not as easy as Eve.It really doesn't tell you what to do and this is stock Starpoint game not the Star Trek mod.It does look good tho lmost like Legacey UU Mod.
-
Hmm, I was thinking of trying this out, but if they can't be bothered to even write a tutorial for the demo... :huh:
-
I second that :D
-
targeting Starbases etc Normaly click on the starbase in the middle its a pain sometimes but it does work
For hailing,Docking and the likes Bottem righthand coner
So if you want to Hail a ship or Starbase you First must Select it then Press the Hail Button
And they will reply to you
For Docking its the same Just press the Dock button after Selecting the Starbase
Hope the Picture Helps

Sorry for the delay been a busy week in work had very little time to sort thing s out

i want that asteroid base model :P
When I get time I`ll port it over all the Starbases,outpost and such use model parts
so you set them up as you want the base too look just going to take time to do it

Curious DD if it is possible to introduce EAW type things like 6 shield facings or if that is locked into 4? It might be interesting in converting EAW/OP into Starpoint.
-
;D Nice work DD!
Wish List the latest models for:
Klingon Academy Klingon Starbase
All the Klingon Academy Tholians
FASA Chandley (Patafala?)
FASA D10 (FoAs)
FASA Sivista (FoAs)
FASA Loknar Refit (FoAs)
Churchill (FoAs)
Terradyhne's entire model collection

not looked into shields just yet but if they anthing like the weapons slots cant see why you cant add more shield faces
upped the weapon slots up to 12 for my borg cube to test it works fine just got to work out how to place icons for the wepons so they don't side close
to each other on the ui
been thinking a total Eaw mod would be cool just a lot of work to do
but one good thing eaw has lots of races and the stock models would do to get it started

well your list is a lot shorter then mine :P
still a lot too add yet KF
for the mod as a whole I think this may take me better then over 1yr+ to do a lot too add just model wise then
got too do all the weapon slots and system slots for the ships a very very big project

25 years here.
The combat UI here looks very SFC, but I 'm torn between diving into modding this or possibly getting involved on SFC4 development.
Depends on how the rest of the features in the game contribute to the whole.

As slow as the SFC IV project is moving you could probably do both and not get overwhelmed.
