I can only say that it is possible, as I was sent a converted model of the Chodak ship in 2003. But I don't believe the models are particularly high quality, as even then I decided to build by own Chodak dreadnought instead of using the converted one, according to the archived copy of my modding website from the time:

All long gone now, I'm afraid, thanks to hard drive failures and such over the years, but just a side note.
So...I made it about half-way. I realized I just had to rename the stbof.res to a zip file and it opened just fine. I'm able to use Milkshape to import some of the HOB files...but about half of them are crashing Milkshape. I thought the Chodak was somewhere in the mXX range (m01, m05, etc) but none of the textures match the Chodak. I can't seem to find any texture file in the stbof file that looks Chodak...

The M-range ships that crash for me are M06, M10, and M14

EDIT: Figured it out! It's T08. For some reason my HOB importer is messing up the UV-mapping but I have the model at least now

Ok, here's on that's a little different. Every now and then I try to build a starship bridge, however I usually fail on scaling. Does anyone have any meshes of people? Preferably one seated and one standing so I can position stuff around them.

On DeviantArt there is an artist workin on Star Trek stuff and scenes called Puffinstudios, maybe he can help you with character models.

Did Aad Moerman ever make any Ferengi ships? For some reason I think I remember a small pack where he remade the Marauder and the cargo ship but I don't remember and I can't find it here on MSFC

Does anyone know if Fahres or anyone who was working on the Sands of Time mod ever made anything else for the Ganeans or any conceptual stuff for them? Maybe some more background information on them?

For anyone who wants to make this for Hellkite; the Odyssey class would be a good starting point. Or at least; I'm getting strong Oddy vibes from the underside of the hull.

I hate the Oddy too, pretty ugly design if you ask me.

I think the Aventine Class would be a better starting point. But some of the lines I just can't figure out, especially around the connection of the saucer and the engineering hull.

Yeah that's about what I thought. Vesta/Dauntless would be the *established* Trek designs to draw from. Otherwise you're looking at the same family as Resolution and Seeker. Very highly blended and all curves.

Here's one that's a bit off-the-wall: Magadhim ships. I think I remember running across an SFC3 mod that included some of these ships but called them Seltorian ships instead. For reference, the ships in question look like the green one on the bottom right with the 'talons'

Seltorian probably didnt visit the lesser Magelanic cloud on the way to our galaxy. If they had the Andromadens would have wiped them out like they did the Magadhim. I doubt there's any models floating around ADB dosen't even have minis for them yet. Best i can do is a pic of the counter sheet from the SFB expansion. I dont have module C5 yet and id get Y1-Y3 and J2 first anyway before adding 5 new factions. If you know someone that plays ask for copies of the SSDs. They will at least inform very basic shapes and component layouts.5618C5-4.jpg

So not a ship request, but a sound effect request. Does anyone know of a game that did a good Cardassian phaser sound? I tried Bridge Commander's but their weapon sound system is a bit wonky (an initial firing sound, fading into the prolonged-fire sound) and I can't find anything so far that has a good, unique Cardassian phaser sound

Hello:
Maybe you should try getting the sound from an actual episode? Like during the final battle in DS9, there might be a clean one when Dominion forces were retreating. Or maybe videos like "Star Trek Deep Space Nine BATTLES"
or
