[MOD][WIP] Star Trek Enterprise NX-01 + UI LCARS Theme

[kevinandersson]

I started playing yesterday, and got hooked. I wished the game was more open, but I am sure that will come along the way - I also get some serious Star Control II vibes from this game (which is awesome).

Anyways, I thought I might have a go at some pixel graphics which fit the game. If you're up for it, I would love some help implementing this ship into the game. I am still working on the shading, so I just wanted to see if there's a general interest.

NX-01:

I'm no 'Trek expert, but if I'm not mistaken isn't that the Enterprise NX-01? I thought the NCC-1701-D was from TNG and Piccard's stint as captain? /nerd

Either way it looks pretty good for a start. I like that follows the same sprite-look as FTL's ships. As far as room layouts go, you're mostly looking at text-editing with Blueprints.xml and whatever ship you decide to replace to implement this one.
This thread should help you get a firm grasp on what you need to get your ship working.

As mentioned on your post, I would love if we could work together on this. No need for both of us to make the same stuff

I've been working on fleshing out the ship, and learning the stucture of the xml + text ship files. The only thing I am missing for the ship now, is the doors - which are kind of a pain in the ass

Here's the work in progress ingame: http://cl.ly/image/1l0b1u090K45

Anyways, here's the latest mockup:
