Sorry to say addressing model issues when the textures are all but done is a bit late.

It would screw up the last week and half of work to make such minor changes.

As for the cowl lights there is the rightg amount just needs better spacing.

I will look at the reg fonts

I know you want it to be a perfect match to the ship seen on screen, but the ship was built by humans, no offence intended but Minor mistakes happen, that's why it's humanand it gives the ship a personality.

What happened to the bussards? The other blue looked better.

I disagree, the bussards look perfect now.  However, that nacelle registry still isn't right the right font...  If you use the TMP Enterprise font without the outline, and squish it down slightly, it should be close.

The saucer reg font wise is fine. The nacelle reg font wise isn't. It needs to be the same as the saucer reg.

Genty is the man, he has sorted out my Export problems, and got the warp warm up to work with the animated bussards.

No, it doesn't.  The font used on the nacelles and the shuttlebay is different than the one on the saucer.  However Baz, I was wrong, the NCC-1701 on the bottom of the secondary hull IS the same font as the saucer.  My bad!  She looks great ingame though baz!  :D  Have a cookie!

I know you want it to be a perfect match to the ship seen on screen, but the ship was built by humans, no offence intended but Minor mistakes happen, that's why it's humanand it gives the ship a personality.

You know, that's part of why even the most meticulous model, ie. Tobias Richter's newest version of this ship, won't ever be an exact match for the onscreen model.  ILM intentionally made some of the panels slightly imperfect.  :evil

The fins have been sorted now, baz also picked a better blue for the bussards and they look great now. Hope you don't mind me posting the pics from testing.

Just going briefly back to the Miranda, the points of the hull on the back half of the saucer should lean in instead of leaning out.

Good job Genty another cookie inbound.

As for the miranda it is just a bitbash between my TMP miranda and the new JJPrise. I don't want to get heavly bogged down making a new back end for it (especially after spending 2 hours to re map and texture it).

I am thinking of a Kelvin refit but will mainy use my standard kelvin and update the parts with the JJprise engine bridge etc and a texture update.
