Celestial Class Starbase How many of you have ever heard of a Celestial Class Starbase before? If you haven't don't worry, it's not canon but here is the info. Now to the good stuff, I am in the process of turning this into a Station for my mod. If I can figure out how to change the amount you can zoom out it will appear as a map unit. If not then it will be rescaled appropriatly and renamed etc... EDIT: Anyone know if a higher poly fbase exists? |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase Are we actually on about something that we are suppose to be able to see? There is no image with your message... |
No image here, but follow the link and you will see :) I am however making it smaller, more so height wise than diameter. I will have some pics as soon as MS3D decides to display the window right :) try this one too http://www.obsidianfleet.net/index.p...ipdb&sclass=62 Top Saucer http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h2...rekie/wip1.jpg |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase Ohh... That one!! I saw some ace pictures of that over at Star Trek Australia (one of which it was sat on top of an ocean) :uhm: |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase I wish I had seen that pic, the ones above are the only ones I've ever seen. If you can find some would you post them or send them to me? |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase If I can find some, I'll be sure to post them, do not worry :) |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase Thanks, I'll be looking too :) |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase Well... with several sites so far, I have found a maximum of... 1. I guess the station just isn't popular :( Spoiler: |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase That looks great, but question you can probably help answer. The one you posted has 4 entrances and 4 catwalks to the outer ring, to me it looks as if the ones in the links I posted have 3... |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase Nah, they have four. Every image of it over at STAustralia had four "doors". The one on that Obsidian link, you can only see two because of the angle, but I assure you, there are four there. Think of it like a Space Dock. They are also made the same way, share the same shade, and also have four doors. :) |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase oh poo, now I have to do that all over again :) I did it with three. Also, I need to know if you can increase the amount you can zoom out at all. EDIT: Maybe not all is lost, the three door version will be a smaller varient 4k meters, instead of almost 9k. |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase Hmm... This is a pretty simple design. If you like, I could make a model myself. I know you already started a model, but I'm fairly confident I could make a really nice looking low poly model. I'd texture it myself as well. |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase I am doing two models, the actual Celestial, and a station about 40% size, the Angelic. If you want to do the Celestial I won't object. but I want to do the mesh for the Angelic, but if you would texture that it would be awesome. I also have a few questions about armada 2.5 and it's various incarnations. What is the difference between the original beta and what you want Admirals to be? as well as what you percieve my re-release to be? EDIT: My Angelic is only 560 polys without the outer ring, which I have no idea how to do in Milkshape. http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h2...rekie/wip2.jpg EDIT: Please clean out some of your PM inbox, I can't PM you. :) |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase That's fine. I'll make the big stationa and a set of textures. I'll have to get back to you on the mod info. I need to catch some ZZZs. Wow, I didn't realize I had 283 out of 200 messages stored, lol. I guess I do need to clean it. |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase Cool thanks DS, do you have a MSN messenger or yahoo messenger? both mine are in my profile page. Ha, never mind then. |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase Actually, I've found that Xfire is much more convenient for messages. I can receive Xfire messages more easily while I'm working with stuff or playing a game. |
Ok, I just added my XFire name to my profile :) Edit: I need opinions... http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h2...rekie/wip3.jpg Where should I place the 36 torpedo launchers? I plan on placing 2 torpedo launchers on each little buldge on the outer ring, another 12 on the central part of the station, and another 12 on the outer part of the ring. Also should I add in various antennas present on a Starbase, or ignore then because it is 4.28 km in diameter? |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase Looking great mate, I really like the station you have made there. |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase Hello: :cya: The station looks really good, I have no doubts how it will look like when textured. But I'm very curious in the version Draconis_Sharp is making now in parallel to yours.:cool: |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase I would say make one set of towers that take up the entire roof of the station. I think it's that small right?. Also, 36 torpedo launcher?!? Are there going to be phasers on it also, if so, it would be impossible to kill, or would require about 3 TFC's. Over all it looks good though, but shouldn't the docks be in, not out? |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase It won't actually have that many launchers if I make it a playable unit. but here are some more pics that may answer your questions... It will have phasers too :) just don't know how many, not the 120 it has for my RPG :) http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h2...rekie/wip4.jpg http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h2...rekie/wip5.jpg |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase you have an RPG? never would have guessed :P normally people who make their own advertize it in their signatures. Looks great, especially with the towers on top. May i suggest one more thing, Make it have some type of base, like a small cyclone deal. Example of what I mean. http://img215.imageshack.us/img215/8173/angelickq9.gif Other than that, this looks great. |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase Actually it is in my Sig... You should take a look, click on "Beyond the Horizon" I may add more of a "base" to it but am going to wait and see what DS does for the Celestial. |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase I forgot I had a username there lol. Well seems good, but you only have 2 threads, but I guess thats all you need. I looks more like a disc ship more that a station right now, but I guess you could get ideas from DS. |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase Wow, lovin that station! |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase starting to look good , cannot wait to see it finished :) |

Re: Celestial Class Starbase well on the subject on the Celestial... last night I was bored and talking with ChileTrek, Elrond, and CptBenSisko and built my own mesh. now it still has a few things left needing to be done, but looks good all the same. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...lStarbase1.jpg EO |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase I think the doors need to be shorter on the height... They look a little tall. |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase lol well considering it took a half hour to build, It will be easy to fix those. EO |

Re: Celestial Class Starbase I think you started something here Lord_Trekie. :D:lol: |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase Uh oh, what did I do? :) My station is done except for hardpointing and textures :( Are you going to do one now too Majestic? |

Re: Celestial Class Starbase You could make a retro version for Yesteryears ;) |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase Hello: Is there been any major progress on the Celestial station and the Angelic variant?, I'd like to see un update.:naughty: |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase Ok :) I have no idea when DS will be able to finish the Celestial, hopefully 2-3 weeks and we will have it. But the Angelic on the other hand... Spoiler: |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase It looks very good, though the textures do look very stretched :( |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase Aye they do, and no matter what I do I can't get them to appear much different. |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase Hello: I know you'll find a way to make the textures to better fit the station. :nodding: I like the texturing on the central tower, those blue windows are great! :eek: Keep it up! (hopefully DS will finish the Celestial too, so we all can have the pack :p ). |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase I finally upgraded to 3ds Max 9, so here is the station you've been waiting for... sort of. Took me about 4 straight hours, so I hope you like it. I haven't had time to reinstall any texturing programs yet, so it may be a while before I start on those. The Citadel - Stands in at 4,391 polygons. http://img128.imageshack.us/img128/4...tadel01ui8.png |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase While the Citadel looks great I was under the impression that the Celestial only exisits to just below the bottom set of doors. I am not any where near certain though and regardless, it is a beautiful model. I can't wait to see the textures you create :D |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase Hello: Awesome station:eek: . I really like the design, and I bet after doing this, making the Celestial would be a snap for you Draconis_Sharp.:cool: |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase Well, I haven't really seen the bottom of the Celestial, but the Citadel does have 2 levels like that. I also added docks on the inside. |
Re: Celestial Class Starbase Well, I'm liking this (though I didn't think, nor have I seen anywhere) it having a lower structure, but it's a nice addition no doubt about that ;) |

Re: Celestial Class Starbase i think the modelling itself is absolutely wonderful and solid but im dissapointed in the fact it looks like a federation starbase with a ring round it and a couple of pods... and aint the polies abit high for armada? |

Re: Celestial Class Starbase its definetly a beautifl piece of art, could be a futristic fed station more then a cel one, or even what the cardassians would do to the station if they captured one... i just upgraded from 8 to 9 and have already made it crash once, hehe downloading 4 now so i cna covnert proerly cuz im having issues trying to use 5.1 |
