Due to Valentines weekend,

Will you be my Valentine? :P Lol, looking forward to the events!!!

Events will be posted this weekend. An update to note is the events will start after the 18th. Due to Valentines weekend, as not alot will be available including myself :P

D

when i see people around in game, it is always nice to see a standard look for a person. it helps establish an identity for the fleet they are a part of and shows their inclusion in it. but i can also understand the need for people to customize and create their own uniforms too. we might be better served to have a standard uniform for each class, but make pieces of it customizable. i.e. if we were to leave the engineer fed side as is as an example, we could require it to be like it is today but give people the option to use whatever belt or patches they see fit. the overall look would still be there, colors and all, but the little bit of customization lets people be more free spirited.

just an idea. i like the uniforms as they are, but would welcome the ability to customize it a little more without it being a non-fleet uniform.

Roll more alts! :silly: I have found that following the different storylines makes a lot of difference even when you have to do the same missions over and over again. You learn which ones you really hate doing and can skip those if you so choose. :)

WOW, definitely sounds worthy of following! Thanks for posting the info, Odioshi. I, believe it or not, haven't watched all the "episodes" as prequels always seem to be missing things to me and the one I did watch didn't impress me much at all so I didn't go further into the line. :side:

OMG Nick, I hear ya, finding any file in Windows 7 and 8 is a total frack job ugh!

I make my BF find them, he's my own personal IT dept. :laugh:

I voted No. Mainly because when we did this for the KDF side many of them did not listen to the restriction on NOT using unlockable uniform parts. Plus, it's a formal Uniform and the white looks crisp, clean, and naval. However, since it looks like we're going to get a new one, I hope we get one that reflects the proud traditions of Starfleet.

Quite simple--any submission that contains uniform parts that cannot be used by all players must be disqualified before the ballot is put to a vote. That wasn't done with the KDF contest and that's what caused the issues.

When designing, we must bear in mind the ways that costuming is broken (yes, it is broken on the Fed side, too.) I would assume that we would want to include the fleet patch on the fleet uniform. However, on some of the uniform designs, the patch is available for female characters but not for male characters. For other designs, the patch placement for the male is much further down the sleeve than it is for the female, where it is placed properly.

The only universally owned uniform tops that do not contain either of these errors are:
Antares 1
Antares 3
Antares 5
Sierra 1
Sierra 2
Sierra 3
The Next Generation - Film

It would behoove designers submitting an entry to use only these seven uniform tops.

One more thing to bear in mind (which is not a bug) is that females have boot options that are not available to males.

I voted "Yes."

Currently, the engineering fleet uniform uses C4 & C11 on a white base. Try simply changing that to C24 & C11. It makes a huge difference without altering the basic fleet uniform. If it's that easy, just imagine what else people can come up with when given the opportunity.

I do however wonder if "designers" will have to submit 3 looks, one for each class/color combo....

I voted No but then my vote is worth nothing as I much prefer my Veteran jupiter uniform anyhow and never wear fleet per se. Of course I think I still follow the colour scheme.

Windows 7:

C:\Users\Public\Games\Cryptic Studios\Star Trek Online\Live\screenshots

Coincidentally, the game is at:

C:\Users\Public\Games\Cryptic Studios\Star Trek Online\Live\

why people decided that program files should no longer be in the \Program Files\ folder is behind me.

I voted No. Mainly because when we did this for the KDF side many of them did not listen to the restriction on NOT using unlockable uniform parts.

For my default directory for STO Screenshots for Windows 7:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Cryptic Studios\Star Trek Online\Live\screenshots

i voted! thanks!

Windows 7

C:\Games\Star Trek Online\Live\Screenshots

Obviously, my game files are in a custom games directory. I imagine that the default install directory is probably Program Files

I'd be happy with a compromise maybe a work uni and the classic formal

Can someone with Windows XP, Windows 7 and Windows 8, tell me where on their hard drive is their screenshots folder for Star Trek Online? (Starting with C:)

Thanks!!

Always thought too much white in the uni - it's too formal dress uni, not combat party mode 8)

It's suppose to be a Formal uniform!

The number of people voting yes makes me sad. We're gonna lose our awesome uniform :(

Makes me a sad too. :( But change is part of life, and maybe the next uniform will be better! Keep your hopes up!

With ponderous musings, Cal walked over to the circular window peering into the depths of the blackness of deep space. A star trail streaked past, one of many, but Cal noticed this one in particular, it had the colours of a rainbow...and he smiled :) The trails shortened, leaving the pinpricks of light shining through. He turned his head to look further, the black was now filled with the gleaming metal of a starbase.

The comm beeped, "Captain, we've arrived at Starbase Stonewall."...
