    Does anybody know where I can get a 3d model (preferably fbx or c4d, or Poser/Daz) of this 22nd century Romulan bird of prey? I've seen a number of models online (often mods for games), but I can't seem to find one I can access. Thanks!

     

    Closest thing I could find is:

    https://www.deviantart.com/metlesitsfleetyards/art/22nd-century-Romulan-Bird-of-Prey-500863539 

    It's in MAX format, but I've used online converters to make useable formats, like STL and FBX.

    I just used https://anyconv.com/max-to-fbx-converter/

    And it converted it to FBX, which opened in Blender perfectly.

    Hope that helps.

    Thanks, Wsterdan! That worked perfectly! Got the Bird of Prey, and also now a great resource for converting files!

    Glad it worked out for you. The artist has a huge fleetyard of excellent starships, well worth a tour.

    Okay, another request: maybe I missed it in the list at the beginning of this thread, but are there any existing Daz textures for NX-01 Enterprise-era (Archer, Trip, etc.) uniforms? I found some by 3DUK online--ostensibly for sale at Renderhub--but they seem to be no longer available.

    Got inspired to check out this thread after getting inspired to re-read the Vanguard series by getting inspired to watch some TOS.


    Lots of...well, inspirational stuff here! As expected. Particularly the Iray revisions to Ptrope's bridge set, which I've tinkered with a bit to fit the sort of partway-to-Phase-II semi-refit my U.S.S. Lexington got after the M-5 incident (thanks to the model from Metlesits Fleet Yards):

    U.S.S. Lexington in deep space

    TOS Bridge Condition Green

    Lexington Bridge – Condition Red

    More sets and characters to come.

    Looks pretty good, nice work on both the ship and the bridge!

    @wsterdan: Thanks again for the advice on finding the BOP model. This is what I did with it, if you're curious.

    Wow, that's awesome, thanks for sharing it!

    ShareCG is going dark. Some stuff is still available, some isn't.

    If you want anything, grab it now.

    And if you have freestuff at ShareCG, maybe find somewhere else to host?

    This makes me so sad. So much great content is going to be lost when it closes.

    Yep. Some of the stuff was created by people who have since passed away, so it may not even be possible to move their stuff to another site. I guess there's always Archive.org.

    So when does the site go down for good? I've got stuff there and need to see when I can download what I have there.

  • randym77randym77 Posts: 279

    They haven't said when the sites are going dark. I think they are hoping to sell them to someone willing to keep them online. There's some people hoping Rendersoity will buy ShareCG.

    Continuing to test bridge scenes as well as various TOS-style outfits.

    Individual characters to come; for now I'm testing dForce settings, uniform textures, and how hard I can push my system before it revolts...

    Has anyone made a version of the TOS bridge as seen in The Cage?

    Ptrope made some mods to his but I don't recall if he released a preset file for it...I haven't seen it at any rate.

    Has this thread been advanced to Trekbuilders 9 or 10 etc and I just haven't found it.  I love it as a resource, but anything from the last 10 years or so, never mind Den 8 and 9 arent really here.  Everything has advanced, .

  • GRFK DSGN UnlimitedGRFK DSGN Unlimited Posts: 1,118

    Not that I've seen. We usually don't advance to the next thread until we've reached 100 pages. That's the forum maximum for a topic.

    Threads get locked and split to a new thread once they hit 100 pages, so no this one hasnb't been replaced yet.

    Thiis may be a forlorn hope, but has anybody by chance made a Tellarite morph for G8M? Or G3M or G9 even? I checked the listings on the first page of course but sometimes folks start projects that don't quite make it to Official Freebie Release.

    Way cool; nice compliment to the standard. Will you be making a female version?

    Also, what do folks do for TOS-style Klingon eyebrows? Tried doubling up on Super Natural Brows but wasn't quite satisfied with the results from that.
