Title : U.S.S Eximius Filename : Eximius.zip Version : 0.9 Beta (no SFC I version yet) This ship can be used in SFC II and SFC: OP Date : 2/9/2001 Author : Don Woligroski (A.K.A. - Cleeve) website : www.STARYARDS.com Credits : Brad at SFB to SFC for making the SCME utility available to us starship lovers, and whose readme file I used as a template as my own! Check them out at http://starfleet.thegamers.net *****NOTE***** Use the file Excellentia-i.mod for SFC II / OP (with illumination maps) Description of the Mod File --------------------------- The Eximius Class: Well, here is a design I came up with that was inspired by several ships: The Promethius, Voyager, Steamrunner, voyager, and Sovreign classes. She also has elements from her inspiration... the Excellentia Class, another Starfleet battlecruiser design of my own that is set in the movie era. I tried to picture the future of Starfleet, post Enterprise-E... to get a direction where it's going. I'm pleased with the result. =) The conjectural design history: This ship has but one , and that's laying smack down. She's a Battlecruiser through and through. The design is a post dominion war/Borg encounter battlecruiser that incorporates advanced weapons systems to fight those threats, including the defiant's own beloved pulse phasers! The tubes on this ship can fire both quantums and standard photorps. There are 4 in the front, and 2 in the rear (the rear torp bays are attached to the nacelles) The pulse phasers are right beside the forward firing torp bays. Regular phaser arrays are all about the ship in the regular places. =) - Cleeve Steps to install ---------------- 1. Make a new directory in your Starfleet Command\Assets\Models\ folder called "Eximius" 2. Copy the contents of the zip file into the new "Starfleet Command\Assets\Models\Eximius\" folder. 3. Finally, open the sfbspc.txt (or shiplist.txt in sfc II) file located in the Starfleet Command\Assets\Specs\ folder with Notepad. a. From here you have two choices you can: 1. Replace the model geometry of one of the existing ships (the F-CB heavy command cruiser is my pick) with the following \Assets\Models\Eximius\Eximius.mod (FOR SFC) OR with the following \Assets\Models\Eximius\Eximius-i.mod (FOR SFC II) b. Or : 1. you can insert the Excellentia stats inbetween the existing row entries of the sfbspc.txt file. <> Copyright and Distribution Permissions -------------------------------------- THIS PATCH IS NOT MADE, DISTRIBUTED, OR SUPPORTED BY INTERPLAY TM & (C) INTERPLAY & PARAMOUNT PICTURES.
