Nebula Class Schematics/Deck Plans

[David Riggen]

I was planning on Drafting up some deck plans for a Nebula Class Starship for my first and sometime to be run game. Since I was going to go through the trouble of drafting up the deck plans for all of the decks for my player's ship the U.S.S. Discovery, I thought I might offer them online here at trekrpg.net for other narrators who were interested.

I haven't started them yet, I was just wondering if anybody would be interested in them when I am finished.

P.S.: I was also going to do deck plans for for a starbase, Starbase 39 Sierra.

Riggen out.

There are plenty of blueprint junkies here, myself included.

Gimme, gimme, gimme.

Well, do any of you own the Enterprise bluebrints? I've got the set, and they could easily be modified for a Nebula-class arrangement.

[Flamestrike]

You'll get my blueprints when you pull them from my cold, dead, tribble-eaten hands!

But seriously, I got them in the bargain section of a local B.Dalton bookstore, if you look hard enough, I'm sure you could find a set.

[Evan van Eyk]

I would also love to see them. As I am very interested in Starships and deckplans

To answer Lancer's question, I am going to draft up the deck plans in AutoCAD 2000; since I am a CAD Drafter and know AutoCAD well. And then try to convert the plans over to Adobe Acrobat 4.0. So it'll be easier for people to view them.

I also have a copy of the Enterprise D Blueprints, which is what I will use to figure out how to draft the decks for the Nebula Class; since the Galaxy and the Nebula are very alike.

Count me in for those deck plans when you get them done. Thanks.

I must say that owning a set of Glaxay D blueprints myself and having considered doing this, I am impressed that someone else is willing to take on this daunting task.

Good luck man, and I will gladly give you any help I can...

Wish I could offer you my help here, but I only worked once with Autocad and that was about 10 years ago. (I use Paintshop Pro for most of my graphic needs.)

I am not sure if using Acrobat for the distribution is a good idea - I guess that would depend for the most part on how big the file-size gets.
I think converting graphics to PDF can lead to significantly larger files than using GIF or JPEG.

Yeah... you are probably right Lancer. What I was going to try and do was only turn certain parts of the AutoCAD drawings into an image of some sort. With AutoCAD you can window certain parts of a drawing and turn it into an image file. That way you can save on file size.
