All textures should now be included in the file. Mac users, the file is now zipped. Stuffit Expander 5.x will unzip files. You can dl it free at www.aladdinsys.com if you need the latest version. If you have trouble with the link, click and hold on the title (not the image) and you should get a pop-up menu. Check download link to disk (or some such variation). Some browser don't seem to recognize the link automatically. BTW, I've noticed this problem a lot with links to geocities. Same trick works for those. If you still can't get it to work, go directly to www.ussdefiance.com/3DWarrior and dl from the meshes page. Thanks again to WarriorDL for the space. Check out his site (address above). He's done some incredible starship models! I of course am shamelessly posting my image of Lursa again. I'm kinda proud of her!

Oops. I thought it worked for geocities, but I was wrong. All I got was the text file of the page that comes up saying the page is unavailable. What a pain in the @#$

You have every right to be proud. I will be shamelessly downloading this, making a ton of images for some friends of mine who are Trekkers/Trekkies (whatever). ...that is, as long as the PC version works...

The PC version works. At least on my PC L

Wow, terrific. I'm not a Trek fan, but this image is really neat-(is it volumetric for all the little triangle stuff?), the atmosphere--and cool lights. And, of course, she's really neat-the costume, her head/face-terrific job. And you say 'you'll see' about Bryce-hmmmmph!! Diane

Hmm. The title here had me laughing; the very IDEA of a Politically Correct Klingon... It's a lot better than the forehead prop I have abandoned somewhere on my D drive. Good work.

That wasn't my forehead prop, was it? Did it not work?

Dave, I am the one using your forehead prop, not Diane :o) And I am still playing with it. Soon as I get my Klingon's armor top figured out, I'll be posting something with him.

Dianethe particle effect is a special fx prop by aksiel I dl'd from the Props Guild. The lights I made in Poser using various transparency/reflection/ambient light combos with a lens flare applied in Photoshop later. I find that's a neat trick for making lights "glow". Poser can't do that. The atmosphere is a green marble texuture applied to the ground and a HUGE single-sided square in the background. Tried the Bryce demo I got at Seybold yesterday. So cool! I can't wait until the real thing arrives!

You can do sort of this type thing with lights with Bryce, or at least get an effect-make your glass shade somewhat tranparent, put a light inside the fixture-you have choices about lights, so for a torchere, for instance, I use one of the spots pointing up inside it, but like the 'ball' lights for general lighting (particularly with gels). I'm anxious to see one of your Bryce things-it is just pure fun--esp. with Poser. I'll have to go look at that prop of Anton's. The other Diane

Dave asked: I don't know; I found a bunch of Star Trek props on the web before I found the forum, and got it there. I don't even remember where it was now, and I never got around to using it!
