USS Enterprise-E ( Very much WIP )

My first attempt at makeing a replica.

my main problems ATM are a substitute for torpedoes (the missiles don't really have the effect) and the fact the Warp Narcells and alot shorter than they should be, but i've run out of room in ship builder, is there anyway to move everything across?

It's not too bad. I've seen better. Pulsars make a good substitute for photon/quantum torpedoes. They're the wrong colour, yes, but they look the part more than any other weapon in the game. Set the clip size around 2 or 4, reload time to about 120, damage to whatever is appropriate based on the ship's health, and you should be good, I think...

Honestly, though... this kind of looks more like a tadpole with warp nacelles, than like the Enterprise-E.

I know, i had the exact same thougth, but it's only been half an hours work and ive got another 4 completly free.

I'm having a look now for some good top down images of it.

saucer is a bit wrong, and the body looks too much liek a hot dog.

The saucer is still oddly shaped

i think its the front that needs ironing out...

but im alot happyer with the rear section

omigod, that parenting is atrocious. you have the saucer shape better, but it needs to be reversed

At the moment, you can't except by either editing the image in photoshop (not really what you need) or flipping each piece one at a time.

I fail to see how this would achieve anything useful.

The parenting can't be changed at the moment. You'll have to rebuild it from scratch.

Eh, it's really hard to create "smooth" ships with BSF, so don't feel down.

But yes, the saucer just doesn't feel right...
