TMP era skins for TOS era ships

revskip1963revskip1963 Member Posts: 6 Arc User
Just wondering. Since there are some TOS era ships that have future models, is there a chance to get some kind of upgrade to make the TOS ships look like TMP era ships? The prototype Federation Dreadnought Cruiser would look really good with the TMP features. Thanks.

    Probably not as ST;D has retconned TOS out of existence.

    No it hasn't. There's still 10 in universe years before TOS.

    To clarify some terms here:

    Textures = the different material types available in the editor, as well as the rep shield visuals.

    Model = the different variants of each ship and their individual parts (often with different shapes and sizes).

    So to the OP; when you are asking for TMP "skins" for TOS ships, are you only asking for the type 8 texture/material that TMP ships use, or are you actually asking them to make a brand new model/variant of the TOS ships?

    If the former, that's a realistic ask. If the latter, it is probably not.

    If you watched the last episode.. you will see that's not the case...

    The 8/8b material for those ships would actually be very interesting.. i dont like the TOS look, but the TMP look is pretty..

    I agree. I'd love to have a T6 Constellation Skin on the Temporal Cruiser.

    Hopefully not. It was a stupid idea to make the TOS and TMP Connis the same ship. Doing that to any other ship would be far too fanwankish.

    It's DSC. Adding a semi-colon to your nonsense words doesn't magically make it correct

    And no. DSC is set a decade before TOS genius
