The Invincible Class:
The D5 garden Variety (and yes, there are differences in each class).
The Andor Class (i used the cannon FASA size and it sorta looks small - oh well).
The Melak Class (replaces the phoenix class)
The Okinawa Class (be looking for an plasma Variant if i get the chance)
A new/Updated Constellation Model
These are just some of the adjustments. I hope to also release some updated and retextured ships.. of course adding in my variants is a priority.. as is adding in a few new vessels.
The real interesting part hasnt happened yet, and that is I have not added in any of the new races. There will be 1 new race added to the dominion axis, and two new NPC races added.

New shot of the Invincible
Don't know if he wants to announce the other ship here yet or not that I just worked on for the GenAW mod.. so I'll leave that up to him. But it's a nice ship, a real prince.
There's also two other ships that I'm waiting on for definite permissions on for release from Atra as they are kitbashes on Atra's design (still is 95% his mesh), plus a mix of Lord Schtupp's textures and Atra's. Turned out really nice and should be a happy day for the SFB'ers here.
Just a hint, one of these TOS ships are named after a city, and it's near water. The other: "The only real battleship built without the name of one of the States." Plus the CVA... (grin)...
(edit)
Okay, check this out.. it's been announced w/ official pictures..

Then I'll check the pylons on the "Hagen" and make sure it's ready for release.

Also IF I remember correctly, the Okinawa is Moonraker's retextured by Duct Tape Wonder and Atheorhaven using Ganymad's altered model and textures

Has that Melak been scaled DOWN to K' Tinga size?
I'll field this one. Nanner and I talked about this and agreed that the Melak looked too TNGish to be part of the TMP era, so we took a little artistic license and pushed it into the so-called Lost Era as the class of warbird that attacked Narendra III and Khitomer. We both just felt that it looked out of place next to the Condor and Killerhawk.
Edit: Note that I don't remember the exact words said; the private messages got deleted from my box at SFC3.net.

The RTS game ST: New Worlds game features the Melak in its opening movie. That game is set in LATE TMP times and the Melak does not appear to be much bigger than the K' Tinga that intercepts her. I believe the Melak is a state-of-the art Romulan ship that does fit nicely in the lost era and I agree 100% these warbirds attacked Nerendra III in early TNG times.
I play LATE TMP so it WOULD fit nicely in my game if a 100% accurate Melak was available... I understand that this is being rectified as I type...
For a history of the 'Curse of the Melak' check out my treatise on the Melak at BC forums.

Sorry, it still doesn't answer the SIZE question. I think its too big as is.
Aye, there's the quandry. While I don't know how big it is now (I just write the stuff), scale wise I think it should be bigger than the Klingon cruiser, since just by eyeballing it, there appear to be more decks in the Romulan ship than the Klingon ship based on the windows. Why that could be the same dimensions as a Klingon ship is beyond me; perhaps the guys who made the movie scaled it wrong. And since in the mod its supposed to be a LE ship, it should be fairly big, perhaps smaller than the Ambassador-class. But, as I said, that's not my department.

Sorry, I've been out of it lately....who did that Melak?
Atra,
I believe its a mesh by Solid snake brought to us by Dark Matrix.
Rat Boy,
Don't mind me, I'm just passionate about getting an accurate Melak. If this were the Excelsior, we'd all still be playing with retextures of the STOCK FDN... LOL

the melak, in my vision of things, is far bigger than a ktinga.
i understand where you are coming from for sure. i dont know the size of it off hand, but it is bigger than smaller. ill check later.

Mr NannerSlug,
When will this TOS K-D5 be available? Is it only for SFC2? I would like it for SFC1 if possible. By the way, I like the Beaker Avatar.

i got permission from him eons ago.. but i would like to double check with him. have not heard from him in forever. its like he has fallen off the face of the earth.
(the models there are for sfc2).
Post by: CyberHank1701 on March 16, 2004, 11:13:42 am
Seriously though, thank you for the link. Forgive my stupidity but what did you get permission from him to do with his K-D5 mod?

yeah, his site is nice. has a lot of TOS stuff. while it doesnt rival fleet dock 13, it is a _very_ nice resource.
poly count: not sure. its lower, i believe though.

Please forgive me again. Are you saying that you are using Desty Nova's K-D5 mod/mesh and applying your new skin/textures to it? By the way I only have SFC1
but to my surprise Desty Nova made his mods backwards compatible . Here are some pictures I took of his K-D5 from within SFC1 by pressing the "F12" Key.

hope that makes sense.

Thank you. I take it then that this Generations At War Mod is some sort of online battlefield for SFC3 that people can participate in as long as they also have SFC3? One online fleet against other online fleets?
