Lucky find actually. I just was lookin for romulan outpost clicked on pic of one that looked like was from botf and walla.

Maybe we should ask him to join us.

rofl... I just replied to that post in KennethGF's Romulan Outpost thread. I noticed that a lot of the screenshots are quite different than the ones in the game. Makes you wonder what features were planned that didn't make it.

Yeah.

Woo that would be cool!

One of the original artists working on our fan-made remake...just imagine...!

So has anyone asked him to join us or at least take a look at what has been made and or done?

Now this!! This is My BABY!!! lol

I would want jig to ask him as he is the best person i think since he has been the most involved with botf2.

Well there`s the UI practically done if we can get him. He did it all in the original BOTF.

Plus designed ALL the Romulan ships!! lol Thats Important to us Roms!

This would be a major find. Hope it can be pulled off. I am guessing the game status would allow for use of the old images that had belonged to Microprose without other issues?

We would have to take stock of what new images already made for this project would be replaced and what would still be left to build. It does not bother me as I am still learning. I hope once I am ready for the real deal we have a better idea of what still needs to be done.

Our Fed Colony ship



His Romulan Colony ship

he did all the rom textures but he was not the lead artist for botf lol, i was in contact with him last year about the phaser issue in botf.

So I guess we are all suffering from the "Claw" syndrome, i.e. The claw from toy story II.. Reviering what we do not know for certain! lol

I'm Guilty! 8O

o and ken that conestoga render was a wip, it looks way better now

It was a presumsion (sp) he was lead artist as it looked like he did a hell of alot of the art.

ya he did shedloads, and so much which never made it in cos they rushed the game

From his resume: "Senior Artist: Star Trek, Birth of the Federation".

We're pretty well covered withUI Graphics, it's images of all the buildings and ships that will be a problem.

Jig did you or would you ask the guy if he had anything he could give towards our efforts for the game's.

i had`nt thought to no but i suppose there would be no harm in asking him if he any stuff not used in the origanel.

Ask him if he has any of the fonts from the game in a standard font format .

So are there any updates?

I will take that as a no.

I forgot I posted that question...

hm jig, since this guy virtually made all buildings we're using in our new (and of course also the old star trek) content, would it be feasible if you asked him for any reservations he might have against that? plus if he knows if he possesses copyright on his work or if he had to give it to the company he was working on back then, i.e. can't dispose of his own work (but then he wouldn't be able to show his work off the net shouldn't he ).

I would be very relieved if finally the creator of all these nice pics can be found (well as it is obviously) and agrees with us using it non-commercially! And be sure to get him a copy of our game if he wants to have a look at it once released .
