Black Hole

in The Foundry for Star Trek Online - Discussion & Feedback
Has anyone had success creating a black hole in the Foundry? I'm looking to do a planet near a black hole similar to the movie Interstellar.

    ooohhhh.... the only thing I can think of is one of the class X planets, but making and accretion disk... kinda hard.

    Actually, yes. Check out this thread I made a while back. Only got one response, but a decent attempt (with instructions)

    Thanks Drogyn. I was inspired by a recent article I read supporting the theory that life could evolve on a planet that gets its energy from a black hole instead of a normal star. Plus I'm looking for a way to preserve someone for 80 years without having them age without using normal time travel.

    Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though.
    JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

    Cool stuff. My current foundry project is a mission based in a white hole system. White holes are totally theoretical but Star Trek is science fiction so why not?

    Sounds interesting. How are you going to get in?

    Well I'm going to have the player approach the event horizon of the white hole but it's not really possible to enter one. I might use the atmospher effect or spawn the player inside a planet to create that effect. I'm using one of the supernova backdrops to represent the white hole.
