I was thinking about this for a while and I thought this. I love TOS architecture a lot. When I say a lot, I mean a lot. I grew up with it (from reruns) and it will never feel dated to me.
However, I was wondering this. Could we get a second version of it, that just has a different texture. No extra physical things but just a retexture. That way there' more to the pack, and those who want a new interior that still matches with other current vessels will buy the pack. It's like Bridge packs when they have the original and all the variants.
It's a win-win situation. All TOS fans will buy it regardless but you may also win over some people who want a more current look with a more classic design.
No one would want to see this? I honestly don't think it would take that much more to implement. They already have the textures, all they would have to do is implement it.
While it might be enjoyable to have another skin, you're talking about a large undertaking to make a 2409 skin job of a TOS itnerior.
Why not have those texture artists working to create more than one skin variant for KDF ships?
Meh, they're just klingons right?:p
Too be honest though, I think the Klingons need more ship models then textures anyways. Look at the Feds, we only have 4 textures and we haven't got any more since launch (unless you count the borg, Aegis, and Remans but the klingons got those as well. Also TOS one but that doesn't work for any other ship.)

Klingons have a lack of both - which doesn't really build consumer confidence in future, additional factions being equal to or more varied.

Agreed unfortunately. This is personally why I'm adamantly against seeing a Romulan faction until next year. After season 5, season 6 needs to just focus on the Klingon side.
If they would just go ahead and straight out confirm that the team will be doing interior packs based on the hero vessels of the other shows, it wouldn't be a problem for me. It really kind of annoys me that they still won't confirm more interior packs to lay our minds at ease.
Until they announce news of Galaxy, Intrepid, Defiant, Sovereign, and Connie refit interior packs, I'll side with this proposal.

They have announced that they will be doing Voyager and TNG. Stahl hinted that they were doing this (although he was not specific when)

Part of the reason they aren't confirming it, is that custom ship interiors are an upcoming feature - making STO's crazy scaling moot.

I'm not talking about scaling or custom layouts. I'm talking about actual interior packs like TOS fans are getting. I want Intrepid class interiors in particular, and I know many other want Galaxy and Defiant interiors. Almost as many want Sovereign and Constitution refit interiors.
I will try and find it but it was a "long" time ago.
Ah, I might have read it then. I'm looking for recent confirmation that they aren't going to give TOS fans something as cool as a full interior pack and then leave fans of other shows sitting in the dust.
That's why I've been calling for an official poll asking what the next interior pack should be:
The base components still need to be made in non-crazy scale, though.
tell me about it when i go into my interior it fells like a stadium and im not flying a galaxy im flying a sov, when i think about it on a defiant :eek: also add to the fact i have 700-800 crew who all seem to be in that particular hallway my first thought is
"who the heck is flying the ship?"
BBBBAAAAANNNNNG
"never mind i just figured it, out nobody:mad::mad::mad:"

I must have missed that post. Can I get a link please? I'd like my fears assuaged.

I've seen Foundry mission with better scaling. You can insert objects to intercept level geo to make it smaller.
