Yes Bob, thank you, but it didn't appear in the "List of New Addons", probably because it's been considered as an upgrade, without even changing its name.
If I can, I would suggest to release it once again, with a new name (e.g. NEW Enterprise Pack, or Enterprise Pack #2, or something else), eliminating at the same time the actually shown one.
This way there will be evidence that the Pack is at all new, even if regarding previous stuff.
Just an opinion, obviously, but after many days I was still waiting for it in the List of New Addons, where it never appeared, and only after Reiko's suggestion I found it with the old name.

The orbital office from the first movie along with a redone Enterprise in dock.
This addon is not meant to replace fungun's wonderful earth orbit but instead is meant to emulate the first movie. It includes a new Enterprise model, drydock with TMP colors and the orbital office complex.

Would love to accommodate Andrea, but I don't have any control over that stuff.
Would suggest that you send an e-mail to Ulrich concerning these matters. I wouldn't
hold your breath while waiting for changes though. Ulrich is extremely busy in his
professional life at the moment.

Thanks, Brain-Dead

Andrea,
when you look at the "List of New addons", there is a link "Click here to show addons which were modified since your last visit."
If you would have clicked that link, you would have seen the "Enterprise Pack".

In the catalogs you can hover of the name of the addon (white letters) to get a balloon tip with last modification date.

Adirondack, I know and always push that button.
What I was meaning is that due to the unchanged name, I didn't understand it as new, as normally all modified addons have a modified name.
Therefore I was asking for a change of the name of the modified addon, e.g. Enterprise Pack New, in order to clearly show that they are two different things.
If tomorrow someone will go to the Sci-Fi box, or in Reiko's creators page, he will find two addons with different date but the same name.
Bye and thank you.

Andrea

Just so's you know about it...

fungun's new add-ons can now be found HERE, and HERE.
We aim to please.

Thanks, Brain-Dead

Reiko:

Your new models of the orbiting office from TMP are great looking.

Regarding the spacedock recoloring, it looks a bit too orange in the screen shot. I would combine it with a touch of gray to tone down the color a bit. Also, in making my Enterprise scripted departure scenes, I recolored the lights on the space dock to make them look a much paler yellow-white rather than a bright yellow. I have attached the revised light color as two files below, in the event you wish to use it.

Can't wait to download the new models.

The lights do need to be recolored but as for the dock itself, I think the color is correct. I remember seeing a behind the scenes photo in a book (maybe The Art of Star Trek, not sure) of the model and it was very orange. I think it looks toned down in the movie because of how it's lit. They didn't light it very brightly like the sun does in celestia. That's why the Enterprise also doesn't look like it's actual color in many shots in the film. Sometimes it looks orange-brown, sometimes grey and sometimes pearl white.
