Nova Class Deckplans

[IceGiant]

I have them saved, 2 versions I think (different sizes) of Nova & Rhode Island. If you need anything you can PM me an e-mail address. Won't be able to send them until tomorrow as I'm not on my home computer now.

Yeah. Pub did the original set for the Nova. Then scaled them up to 150% when he did the Rhode Island variant.

[Tobian]

Yeah they are all Illustrator files anyway, so they are scalable

Assuming one had something to scale them with

Yeah. Pub did the original set for the Nova. Then scaled them up to 150% when he did the Rhode Island variant.

Did he explain why?

[Tobian]

Sorry, to explain: The original files for both the Nova and Rhode island variant were in a vector scalable format. So outputting them at any resolution is only a matter of setting the output resolution.

Not sure 'why', but it's not a hard thing to do, and the larger the resolution, the clearer the detail.

That's what it was, the re-sizing to 150%. Thanks for jogging my memory.

I remember the Rhode Island upgrade offers 2 bridge deckplans as well (Nova or Intrepid style) ... at any rate I do indeed have the Nova, Rhode Island and resized 150% all.
I have a couple PM requests, if anyone else would like a copy just let me know, I'll likely get to send them out tomorrow.

I also stumbled across a really kick-@$$ copy of the USS Raven (Aeries class) set of deckplans, 2 or 3 or 4 decks as I recall, if I remember right (it was a while ago) they were on a graphic art type site. Not sure if I stumbled upon it through here or just surfing.
If anyone's interested I can fire them off too ...

My only claim to fame is that I recommended to Pub for the Rhode Island was using the Intrepid bridge for the "upgrade".

OMG, OMG I've been looking for a set of deckplans for the raven!!

So, wait, did he upscale the ship or just made the plans bigger?

My understanding is he upscaled.

Please and thank you.

And they're quite nice too !

No problem, the amount of stuff people share with me here, I'm glad to be able to pass something on.

Just sent the batch to all four who have asked. Any problems with getting it just let me know.

I'll have to wait til i get home to check. Damn work filters. But thank you kindly.

No problem, should be good, I already got one reply that it came through without any snags.

Enjoy !

I know I'm contemplating something on an Aeries class now having had a good look again at the Raven plans

I had always wanted to run a campaign aboard something really small. I don't want to have to deal with npc's just a small group. Runabouts were the only option but were too fragile for much in the way of starship combat. I think the Aerie is just the thing, being able to take on Jem'hadar bugs and small birds of prey and such.

Definitely, and nothing saying they can't be upgraded to be a little more capable. As I understand it they're not a Starfleet vessel but rather a Federation one, used by the Science Council and such. That could actually work though.
Maybe some non-starfleet scientific researchers getting into trouble researching ancient race archaeology or space/time rifts or something (I have a mixed species vulcan/romulan in mind that could fit on such a ship as a way to escape a society that expects certain behaviour.), or a ship being used by the Federation Intellegence Service or something ... smugglers/outlaws/merchants. Endless possibilities.
