The Final Frontier

a mod for Star Wars: Battlefront II

The goal of this mod is to simulate the battles fought aboard the Star Trek vessels we all love and know, plus more. We will be using the Star Wars Battlefront 2 engine, and will be working on upgrading the graphics of the game, making sure our models and textures are of a more "modern" quality.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The mod will include the follow eras in Star Trek history:

* ENT (First release) - Playable as Humans, Vulcans, Andorians, Klingons, Romulans, and other forces, such as the Xindi, that the Enterprise crew encountered. As a separate ingame era, the battles beteen the Mirror Universe's Earth Empire, and Rebels, will be possible.

Most if not all eras will include the basic races (adjusted for the time period), such as Humans, Klingons, and Romulans, plus the extra "main" races encountered in that series.

Mentioned races, may only have an available class rather than whole side.
More to be added at a later date...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GAMEPLAY
The mod will focus around fast paced close quarters combat using the Star Wars Battlefront 2 engine. Space battles will likely be included, the chance to control vessels such as the Enterprise, may be later added. The "land" battles, fought within the corridors of ships, and (in a later release) stations, will be focused on, before the inclusion of player controllable starships.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GAMEMODES:

May Change

The following are game modes planned to be brought to you by the mod:

-Hit and Run:
You must destroy key components of the enemy ship, such as the warp core or shields, and then escape to the transporter or air lock.

-Starship Battle:
Whilst two starships battle it out, you have the chance to take control of shuttle pods, and either help your side in space, or enter the enemy ship to continue your pursuit of destruction.
Transporters may be included in this game mode.

-Take Control:
You must capture important locations of the ship to take control of the vessel.
SHIPS

The ships of all races will be included such as NX-01 Enterprise, NX-02 Columbia, Klingon Birds of Prey, Vulcan Battleship Classes, Andorian Battlecrusers.

WIP Forum Rules wrote:THE RULES:

1) Include pictures from the mod/map.

2) Give detailed info about the map. Don't just tell us where it takes place.

3) The map/mod must be at least 50% completed.

So, in short: All WIP's must be at least 50% completed and showcase threads must contain info and pictures pertaining to the work you're showcasing.

If you fail to meet any of these requirements then you'll have 3 days to make it up. Otherwise your thread will be locked or deleted. If you fulfill the requirements post-lock then just PM a moderator or admin and we'll reopen your thread.

Now that we're clear on the rules, please follow them. Thanks for your cooperation and happy modding!

This doesn't sound like it's over 50%. You have three days to put up pictures that confirms it is over 50% or I could just lock it now, your call.

Edit: And a side note: after a quick look at your ModDB page, it's worth noting too that I don't believe SWBF2 supports animations for weaponmodels.

One thing Mav' didn't mention is that most articles are posted in the General thread. You will find 3 active projects being discussed and worked on over there.

That's slightly more useful information, thanks Jawa. In that case, this topic should be moved to General, not "locked or deleted".

FYI, the animation seen on Moddb was created, as far as i know, before SWBF2 was chosen by Kenobi for this project.

(Sorry by the dobble post)

Don't double-post. Edit your old post.

Now i hope i do not have more problemans with admins/moderators(i know the rules)

Well here is a little update:

Dragon93 got the phase pistol ingame and is texturing it(pic soon)

I did resolve to do the NX-01 bridge, and stop to post alone models.

Here is what i have so far:





Based on this:



I know some details are missing (i need to add more painels and lower the center...), please comment!

looks nice. im just curious what modeling program is this in?

Thanks! I'm using 3ds Max 2009.

Looks pretty darn good!

Those models are amazing! They look better than the references.

Thanks for these kind comments! I'm getting better at modelling More cooming soon.

Bridge Update.
I may not keep the walls...they are very uggley

The walls aren't really that ugly.

You should know that most Star Wars fans dont like Star Trek fans ... Im just kidding with you The models look great, they just need a texture and it will be

Wow, awesome concept especially with XI coming out in May.

Oh by the way if you need any help with any written material/spoken regarding canon or Trekverse history check out Memory Alpha. Its a Trek Wiki that is pure canon.

Which Enterprise is this? The bridge doesn't look like it's from the original series or The Next Generation.

It's the Enterprise from ENT.

The models look pretty good, but remember that modelling itself is 1/3 the work in creating a new model. You're gonna have a very hard time texturing those.

And then that's only 1/*small number* of the full work. You can make assets, but then you need maps to put them in. Still, I suppose that's why this isn't in the WIP forum.

hehehehe^^

Thanks! I know...i'm looking for a mapper as well and coder, because you can't model and entire new universe and do maps

I have better bridge walls done, but it's on other computer.
I will post pics soon!
