Captain Proton Mod!

[Iansidious]

I don't have a lot of time right now. But I am in the planning stages of the 'Captain Proton Mod' for SE4. So far I am looking for pictures and creating some component ideas. And every thing will be in black and white. To give it that Captain Proton feel to it. Thats most of what I have right now. More coming to a topic near you. Thought are welcomed also

You got too be kidding me??? You mean Captian Proton from ST:Voyager????

[Suicide Junkie]

For starters, going monochrome would be an new twist. If you can make it look good, it would be pretty cool I think.

Then you could start converting components into cheesy scifi Versions...

[tesco samoa]

cool

Captain Proton was great. One of the few ST:V that I liked

[narf poit chez BOOM]

Yes the Captain Proton from Voyager! Thanks Combat Wombat the links are a big help. So far the pics I have are from the offical Star Trek website. I have three races in mind. Doctor Chaotica, Earthlings, and the Queen of the spider people Arachnia! Of course I may inlist some help from the MOD veterans of there.

From what I remember seeing of the techonology of Capt. Proton, you could probably use the Flash Gordon shipset. It was very reminiscient of those types of movies.

[Urendi Maleldil]

This'll be way cool.

ACTIVATE THE LIGHTENING SHIELD!!

Oh, and you've got to have a death ray.

It may be labeled Flash or Flashgordon. I also have a Ming shipset I downloaded from somewhere. I'm blanking on the site names, but they're the usual suspects.

GREAT idea! But it should also "translate" the entire SEIV interface into black and white to make it look decent. Seems like a LOT of work to me http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif

[Urendi Maleldil]

Does any one know of a blackandwhitevator program that turns a batch of image files black and white?

Its a batch of utilitys designed around command_line batch processing. It does so many things that alot of other programs are built on it.

Desaturation or "Save as" a B&W format.
These should be a standard function on a lot of things.

Also that is where the RESIDENT SELF APPOINTED SPACE EMPIRE 4 MODADVISOR comes in http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif .

I just found a way to make pictures monochrome! I forgot my mother is taking some computer graphic courses at home. I happen to see five computer disk's next to her work. Turns out its CorelDraw Graphics Suite 11 program's. I got permission to play with all these sweet program's! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif Anyway the photo and objects program is my new best friend. I selected a colored picture from the imagemod and made a great monochrome picture. My job is now easier. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif
