Star Trek Development - Latest news : Time To Add Ships Into the mod

Post by runandhidegamer »

Over the last few days I have spread my time over 3 major modding projects but focussed specifically on the Star Trek mod.

The current stage of this mod is that I am currently working on the steps needed to add a Borg Cube ship to Distant Worlds 2.

So I have the model of the Borg Cube as well as the textures....... final checks to make sure I did not miss anything...... well there are some things to be done...... but this is a very early test to make sure I have green lights on what I have done so far.

The result?

As seen below all text is Green and good with no red fail messages in sight.
A good start.

Now to begin changing the xml files so I get the correct code to create a Bundle file for the Borg Cube.

Work has begun on updating the portraits as shown in the picture below....... the Borg picture was probably the hardest picture to do as most picture of the Borg Queen were fairly dark.


This picture looks great ingame compared to the enlarged picture seen below.....

The mod occurs around the same time as the Wrath of Khan so obviously Khan Noonien Singh will be in the mod.....

The Vorta have been added to the mod as the 15th and most likely final playable race to be added to the Star Trek mod.

Star Trek Development - Latest news : Finally Adding the Ships

Post by runandhidegamer »

So after adding in the races.... what is the next thing I need to add to the mod.

Ships!.... for all races that will be in the mod starting with the 15 playable races.........

So now it is time to add a Borg Cube to the game....... so I will document the steps I took to try and get this done...... it may not work first time but I will eventually figure out how to do it.

So this is a very basic test model of a borg cube just to be used as a test and not the final version.
