i have played this game from time to time over the last couple years and i love the foundry.
i last played when the Tholians invaded and i forgot how awesome they look and crazy their equipment looks. and i wanted to create a story involving them and the breen.
now last time i checked the foundry for goodies all they had were the tholian ships and tholians in EV suits.
there was no update to either the romulian republic (i can't even create a proper romulian republic uniform!) or the tholians! there is no tholian assets anywhere!.
you know for what i consider the crown jewel for this game it sure seems to be neglected quite a bit
i can't figure out why no one has updated it in such a long time with the tholian gear.

Most of the updates lately have been when we manage to flag down one of the developers about a specific need and said developer finds a little spare time to make additions to the Foundry. We've certainly been trying to get the RR uniforms to the attention of the right developers, but it requires someone with free time on the character team.
Tacofangs, the artist who got us the ESD assets, has said that he might try and do a Romulan-themed update in the future, but of course there's no ETA on that.
and since i guess there is no ETA i guess for now my stuff is on hold again for the time being

Good missions find ways to sidestep limitations, often to impressive effect. For instance, Tholians often steal and salvage technology from other races. In fact, in several cryptic missions, such as Temporal Ambassador, they reuse the assets from Facility 4028. We don't have those as assets, but we do have the map itself. You could redress the map into a Tholian base. You could also set it on a captured _____ vessel.
ok i am going to be blunt,
i am sick to DEATH of klingons i really truly am that is all i see and star trek is WAY more then the stupid klingons
i like the Breen and tholians i am trying to make a misson with both for more variety
what my story premise is
- legal space boundary at the edge of the Rom neutral zone with keeping eyes peeled for missing ship
- then it leads to unmarked planet on the star charts in Romulian space which is a tal shiar hiddenbase/lab with all kinds of crazy stuff going on in there (wont spoil it) (but you need to rescue an important person)
- The tal'shair have stolen Tholian tech for unknown reasons, and the Tholians want in back (hence Tholian assets)
- and the breen are mad because last time they had a ship there is was shot down and they found out what the romulans are doing there and they are going to lay down the law and attempt to take the "Mcguffin" unless the Tholians get it first.....
you just happen to pick a bad time to rescue who you need to and are caught in the cross fire
yes i have a Klingon there and it plays a VERY minor role if any at all, i might even just kill it and have a dead Klingon
for the moment i am just using Premade maps for the outdoors/ indoor stuff but the space maps i am making with that i think looks awesome
the story will probably be 40+

Wow. What do you have against the KDF so much?
I actually like Delta Rising.
i have nothing against them
but IMO its just overdone on the foundry

Hmm, seems like it shouldn't be too hard to work around. There are consoles that are generic enough to stand in. I also believe that one of the holding cell assets is the same used by the Tholians on Nukara. It's triangular. Beyond that, have fun mixing some things together. Tholians have a crystal theme going and we have a few of those in the Foundry. Be creative.
Don't forget, Tholian consoles are just blue LCARS versions of Generic consoles in "Temporal Ambassador". Just use those.

Yeah, what I think he wants are the Holographic Control Interfaces from the Temporal Ambassador Tholian maintenance ducts and hangar bay control room thing. The ones that are smallish and have triangular or polyhedral display projections. (IMO, the large blue consoles should be updated to have a similar aesthetic, but that's off topic)
