    What about the TNG uniforms?

    Hideous? I can't imagine many people wanting their early designs...

    Otherwise, their other appearances through TNG, if I recall, resembled their DS9 attire.

    Reminds me of some of those aliens in The Last Starfighter. Yeah I prefer the TNG/Ds9 updated ones.

    The hair!!!!!! Thank you! <3
  • spiritbornspiritborn Member Posts: 4,257 Arc User
    The TNG uniform without the headpiece isn't too bad, a sure it's a generic "scifi alien body armor" look but not too bad, with the headpiece it looks down right silly though.

    That said I can understand why they changed the look to something more distinct even after getting rid of the silly headpiece.

    The Cardassian spoon color selection it's enabled for the wrong gender. You can choose it for men, that in the show are never shown wearing make up on their spoon, and lacking for women, that in the show are always wearing it (excluding Tora Ziyal, but she was only half Cardassian).

    From the show:

    Compare with the three most famous Cardassian men:

    The Cardassian woman selector in the creator page still shows the unfinished old hairstyle:

    Yay! My Cardassian female doesn't look like a changeling any more - she has hair! And there are new styles as well. Thank you Devs.

    Yeah My female Cardassion has no color option for her Head Attachment Organic. It appears to have a permanently assigned color given to it that doesn't change with the makeup style option either.

    Great work with the hair! I hope there is more to come!

    We will have a Cardassian colour scheme for the user interface?

    Doubtful. Those things are faction specific and the playable Cardies are not a faction of their own. We'll probably get some Dominion-style UI elements for the Jem'hadar, though.

    actually they aren't faction specific, you can change them in the settings, so you shouldn't really rule out a cardassian themed one

    Really? I did not know that. Cool.

    So any progress on Cardassian appearance options? I see that females got a few properly rendered ones. I look myself but the tribble download is huge.

    Both female and male Cardassians are very much complete in their appearance, the only significant thing to fix it's the spoon, since (at least as for yesterday) the devs haven't yet corrected the fact that women cannot change its cosmetic color, but the option is there for men, that in the series don't use it.

  • terranempire#7881 terranempire Member Posts: 1,222 Arc User
    No option to change the colour of their spoon. But at least the girls have blue makeup spoon even if it is fixed and can't be changed.

    Offtopic: Does anyone know how you copy a toon from the main server to tribble? Have no clue how to do it.​​

    Finally got on tribble. By god they have improved hell of a lot and I am overjoyed they included a few from the TV show. I hope they add a few more. Including the ones mentioned & the NPC versions that the enemies use (including Mirror Leeta variant).

    And super crossing my fingers for Ziyal hairstyle too.

    Oh and the Cardassian uniforms & Boffs! Other than that I am pretty happy.

    My favourite so far has got to be this one:

    I don't know if they fixed it in the meantime, but last time I checked the spoon wasn't blue for women, unfortunately :( If they have fixed it and made it blue only, it's good enough for me since it's the canon color.

    To copy characters from Holodeck to Tribble you have to select the account link at the top of the page (ARC one not forum one) and the "copy character" option should be on the right of the "Star Trek Online" image on the "My Games" tab.

    Thank you. Found it! On the site. Just have to wait now.

    And yeah looks like they did fix it somewhat. Wonder if the men still have theirs blue too :smiley: Dukat & Garek with makeup!
    Always thought they were makeup that the women put on (not genetic like coloured spots). There was nothing on the show that said otherwise.​​

    Shame it isn't possible. Guess people will just have to pretend to be one. Wonder if there still Cardassian theme fleets around. But even if it isn't I am going to pretend and play Union theme in-game when I am cruising around Bajor in my Cardassian ship :smile:

    Is there any particular reason that the Cardassians don't have the Soldier trait as a selectable option? Given the species' history, it seems like a no-brainer that they should have it

    Unfortunately we won't see the playable Union at this point :( The only good thing about that is that I'm not really missing it if would have been another Romulan Republic.
    But at least we can have the species and most ships (I think only the Hideki is not yet playable, but I suppose it will end up in Lobi boxes sooner or later.).

    And yes, very good theme music.
