Title: KF's retextures of WZ45 VoDleH (Emperor) Class released!
Post by: Klingon Fanatic on March 27, 2004, 04:10:30 pm
Inspired by Ganymad's retexture of WZ45's SuvwI' Qeh  I decided to try it on WZ45's Emperor. I also changed the photon texture to the Blue Klingon Academy style heavy photon. Here's what I have:

I'm not 100% satisfied with the top down wing textures...

The ORIGINAL IKV Kraag Dorr, (a prehistoric Qo' Nos sea serpent I made up) was a VoDleH....


While I was at it I took WZ45's Romulanized K' Tinga and applied those textures to his Emperor as well. The warp engine textures are Ganymad's changed from red to green:

If WZ45 doesn't mind and if Ganymad doesn't have one of these in the works, I'd like to post it up at SFU.

Qapla!

KF

hey kf. its funny. i had the same idea about the vodleh some days ago but i made a more greenish (deeper green like in ka) variant and a quonos1 version. so i had none of those in the works.
u definitly should release them ! im certain wz will give u the permisson.

btw. i hope to catch  on msn. got some news and id like to discuss a little projekt with u.


greatings,

How's this:

http://uk.f1.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/l35747_485/detail?.dir=/Star+Trek+stuff&.dnm=bc2b.jpg

notice the eagle on the underside done with vector lines, this version is actually a retex of the actual Vodieh textures, not the K'T'inga textures - BTW what's with all these green TMP Rommies? don't you guys know they're grey!

Edited - stupid facking picture tag not working - just click the link

She's ready as is, and permission pending from Wz then I'll send her to anyone who wants to host, I haven't spoken to Rogue9CH in quite a little while so I dunno where to put it. BTW the 2 nacelle version I made is also good for a Klink version - it retains the same armament as I duplicated the disruptor cannons on the lower nacelles.

Post by: ganymad on March 28, 2004, 08:45:08 am
yeah! thats great! why not put it up at starfleet universe?
i got an idea - why we dont release them all at once so we can offer a whole vodleh fleet like skinman did with his BoP some time ago? im pretty sure wz will give us permission.

think about it:

wz: original vodleh
kf: blueish vodleh
     green romulan vodleh
marauth: grey/green romulan bodleh
me: green ka klingon vodleh
       grey,red,gold quonoslike flagship vodleh   [ill post pics of them later today ]

btw: i used a photoshop feature called "emboss colors" to make the surface plating look more realistic.that makes the plating look more 3d. ull see on the pics. all my texture work is made to fit tthose model into the style of the d2 mod by atra and p81 cause most of my models are in that style.

oh. i havent noticed any canon tmp romulan (i dont go for sfb - i never played it) so i thinbk its freedom of art to make a ship green or grey.

Er um very nice. Back to my SFU question. Do they still upload files there? Cause I sent a ship a while back and it hasn't turned up. Looks like it hasn't been updated in 3 months.  Is anyone in the know about this?
Title: Re: TWO: WZ45 VoDleH (Emperor) Class retextures
Post by: Bernard Guignard on March 28, 2004, 08:49:33 am
The file is there you just have to search for it by name for some funny reason the page doesn't update well so its best when you release a ship on sfu let others  know the exact file name so they can search for it.

Post by: WickedZombie45 on March 28, 2004, 10:01:18 am
You all can go ahead and release any modifications you've made to the voDleH, just make sure I'm properly credited. If the ship's going to be converted to another game though, or ship parts from my other models are involved, I'd appreciate it I were asked first.

There, now maybe everyone will shut up .

Post by: ganymad on March 28, 2004, 10:59:54 am
cool wz but i just cant shut up - its in my nature to talk all the time  

i just wanted to ask a question here:i retexture wz ktinga and now id like to make a quonos1 version of it.everything should work fine but there is one little problem. the texture for the warpengines: warpside.bmp doesnt have a corresonding lightmap.
could someone please assign a lightmap to that texture on the model as i dont have the skils to do that ?

I always enjoy your retxture projects, KF. You are a true Klingon at heart.

When WZ released the VoDleh it upset the whole friggin' Klingon dreadnought selection I was using because I liked it that much. So what's a man supposed to do? She is serving as the B8 combined dreadnought. Which is why Firesoul's spec list is so useful to people like me.

Yeah, you can release the retextured K'tinga and Suvwiqeh. I added illumination to the Ktinga's warp engines for the SFC2 and SFC 3 version. I'd post the link but Nightsoft is being a severe pain again so I can email it to you, ganymad, if I could remember the address....

I really want the new SuvwI' Qeh retexture, Ganymad.

About time the Klingons get some more uber-cool upgrades.

Thank you WZ45 for making this possible.

I have posted The red/blue VoDleH and  the Romulanized voDleH at SFU. I will consider the Romulanized version I did to be an early Romulanized version

Red/blue: http://dynamic5.gamespy.com/~sfc/files/pafiledb.php?action=file&id=684

Romulanized: http://dynamic5.gamespy.com/~sfc/files/pafiledb.php?action=file&id=683

Now that my two are up perhaps Marauth and Ganymad will post their versions as well... About time we see multiple variants on a Klingon ship,  

Enjoy!

Give us a bit and I'll send them to the SFU - do you need to do anything specific to use that thing? Anyway, anybody got a link to the Romulan ship font in truetype so I can name it first? Oh the Fed TMP font with pinstriping around it would help to (got some Fed ships to finish up.

Nope, you don't need anything fancy to load a model at SFU or STMODDIRECTORY. Just click on the Submit a file and you are in. Really easy to do.

Sorry Marauth, I wish I knew how to help finding those fonts for you. I was thinking maybe use some of the Romulan fonts that appear on the old Eras of War Romulan ships. Perhaps Atrahasis can assist?

BUMP

Yeah they're the same ones from the Eras of War ships, I had them for ages but reinstalled a while back and forgot to back them up. Everytime I find them now on the net they never show up in any programs.
