e0ytk Joined: December 17th, 2002 Posts: 82 | For Generations and Undiscovered Country I have some questions.
1. For Generations - In the future development of this one will the Enterprise be without shields so to emulate as close as possible how the Duras Sisters ship could penetrate the shields in the movie? I assume that disabling the Galaxy Classes shields would also make it more stratagy then a turkey shooot, as the Duras Sisters said in the movie "That is a Galaxy Class Starship, we are no match for them..."
2. For Unidiscovered country can the Bird of Prey be made to be cloaked while firing, if not, or if not because it is impossible to manually target and fire weapon can the Enterprise A have a weak sensor field compared to the Bird of Preys so that in order to hit the Bird of Prey the player must manouver in close enough to detect her and lock on? That way it would change the stakes too.
I'm just making comments on unfinished work so sorry if I am stepping on toes or coming off as ungrateful, I am anything but impressed thus far. Just wanted to ask some questions, thank you. |

Well, it was ment as a suprise... Galaxy, aka Enterprise D will either have no shields, or the Bird of Prey of Duras sisters will be very powerful...
And for The Undiscovered Country.. Well, this was going to be a REAL suprise, but... Well, I have help. Lucas Kane is posting for me in startrek.bethsoft.com forums... And I just read some guys reply...
And without that guy.. You wouldn't have Bird of Prey of Chang which would fire while cloaked ( still under development ) and you wouldn't have Enterprise which would detect the Bird of Prey.. Well, I went to legacymods.com and saw RogueVulcan was having same problem as me.. I'm trying to make the Enterprise have Cloak Detect, however, I do not know how to make that Chang stays in cloak.. 
Also, I thought to either weaken or REMOVE the Enterprise A's shields in TUC.
I will post more screenshots as soon as I fix this The Undiscovered Country thing..
Also, how do you like the names in the Menu (Play --> All Missions --> ? |

and i know how u can PROPERLY do the generations battle, as in BOP's weapons go through shields |
the28ig Joined: May 29th, 2006 Posts: 17 | are you considering battles from the dominion war, ie. sacrifice of angels. |
Riles_Lek Joined: September 15th, 2005 Posts: 124 | I will try to do something what was in DS9 show...
For example, it would be easier and FPS-friendlier to make the battle of DS9, when all those klingon ships attacked teh station.. You'd be Defiant, of course... And about Sacrifice of Angels.. I don't know.. But I'll consider it. Currently I have some really annoying problems with TUC (The Undiscovered Country), and noone seems to be replying to my threads.. |
e0ytk Joined: December 17th, 2002 Posts: 82 | Hum, well that sounds good then Riles, I am more impressed now, thakns for answering my questions. 
Oh and I too would love to see a Sacrifice of Angels battle, to a degree, but knowing there is still problems with AI and new racs and the lack of Dominion Ships and Cardy ships to choose from, perhaps the DS9 battle with the Klingons would be a good first step as you said. |
the28ig Joined: May 29th, 2006 Posts: 17 | That sounds good, I can see why TUC is giving you problems, not an easy battle to script. Is the Excelsior going to be in it? |
Riles_Lek Joined: September 15th, 2005 Posts: 124 | Well.. Unless we get SDK, I don't think so.. See, I was planning on giving Enterprise A the Cloak Detector 1, while Chang would fire while cloaked.. But since I can't make Chang to cloak..
I really need the SDK, or the beta release will have to wait... Maxloef helped me alot, however, that Generations battle will unfortunately not be authentic.. I can't use the hasShield = 0 , for it does not work.. Plus, the ignoreShield = 1 doesn't work either.. If someone gets around this, please tell me.
If I had the SDK, then I would script like, that two Chang's torpedo breach Enterprise's hull, and for a minute, we'd see Excelsior warping in.. But nothing, if we don't get SDK |
r4y30n Joined: January 22nd, 2007 Posts: 37 | Getting Chang to fire while cloaked will be a daring feat indeed. Many have mentioned using the "cloakEnable = 1" script, however the game does not recognize this command. You can still de-cloak with that line deleted out of the "gcloak" file. There must be another hidden file somewhere that tells the game whether or not you can fire while cloaked.
Being able to warp while cloaked in a TNG-era BOP or Romulan ship would be cool, too, but just as hard to implement... |
westmoreland111 From: (San Diego) Joined: November 17th, 2006 Posts: 41 | I'm liking the concept here...
But don't forget that in Undiscovered Country, the Enterprise-A gets a little help from the Excelsior. She comes in and helps save the day.
Also, about the detect cloak thing... if I'm not mistaken, didn't the scouts in Armada have that capability?
Couldn't you just use the detect cloak special weapon? |
