Here’s a complete tutorial i wrote years ago about adding lightmaps

http://gizmostudios.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=moddingtipstutorials&thread=162&page=1

if your interested i have a large library if Rick’s star trek models in 3ds format (some also in lwo format)

i have these ones all done by Mr Knox:

Akira
Alita
AMbassador
Araxes
D7
Dauntless
Defiant
Excalibur
Excelsior
Galaxy
Galaxy-X
George W Bush
Intrepid
K17
KBB
KI24
Kvort
Miranda
Nebula
New Orleans
Soveriegn
Star League

Let me know and i can pack em up or something.

can you do some preview images of them? already thinkin about the excalibur or sovereign but would like to know some infos more than what the shape is built after.

ok you asked for it, so here you go (ships not show: dauntless, Galaxy, KI24) :

Sovereign X:

do we see modeled plating on the sovereign class or are the one-side shaders textured like that? if that’s really modeled i’m interested (tried to do it based on a different model, turned out pretty non-cannon)

no the plating is not modeled, that is just some great texture work by Rick.

Also just to note that they all have all of the glow maps as well, they are not rendered in the pics because Ray Tracing and HDR rendering makes them major bright and hard to see the underlying textures.

That is the reason i actually have these models. We were working on a FL TC of star trek back in the day Called: Star Trek Legacy. But one thing after another and it never got done.
