Anyone ever do any "Star Trek" specific mods??
-
Just throwing this out there as a general question really. I’ve found a v2.3 shippack by one person, as well as “Twist of Trek 0.55a”, but nothing overly complete.
I am competent at modding freelancer in general, aside from .dll files, but I have never found the time to “make” a mod of my own based on the star trek universe.
So, I ask again, has anyone ever seen/made a Star Trek Only mod???
Thanks in advance for any answers,

**Star Trek TC Mod, never released it, for a Star Trek centric MOD, check out Solurus Systems (shameless plug), the entire universe except the original systems is based on the Star Trek universe layout and includes other sci-fi shows as well….

I was looking for something more “trek” based, though the layout of some of the systems and such is good. Some of the ship model look dated, or maybe just the textures themselves.
The “Twist of Trek” mod was cool, though i changed the phaser sequence to a single continuos beam instead of the fast firing type. I was just hoping someone had mad a startrek mod, thats all. Guess i’ll actually have to try and make something of my own, could take me a few years though, seeing as I don’t have time to do much anymore.

There is a mod called DS9, 100% Trek. Here is the link to the mod site.

It’s not a bad mod but it could use improvements. The Nightstalker Universe mod Has a set of Systems that are Trek specific complete with planets, systems, stations, and ships. Everything is scale to power and size. There is only 1 Jump Hole in and out of the Star Trek set of systems to the rest of the mod. There is a USA an EU server. I recommend checking it out. search for NSU 1.65

I think the biggest hurdle to Star Trek mods is that Freelancer can’t accurately reproduce phasers, so most people stop considering the idea at that point.

well, in older star trek we see phaser impulses, too. guess rather a problem is, that star trek changes through the time and to input everything is just lots of work - lets forget, that you cannot balance such an amount of different ship classes of the federation, of all the alien races and of all the time periods of star trek. the reason there are mods with trek contents is just because many players love the designs.

For the Star Trek fans, there are some screen shots of Star Trak ships in the NSU mod, on this page
