Millennium Class
Just what A2Files needs.... another 'god' Starfleet vessel. This one promises to do EVERYTHING! It has powerful phasers and Warp 10 and carrier bays and even quantum torpedo launchers. Even special "electro distributional" shielding and all! What does the Federation need with all the other ships in the fleet when they've got this!?
Well, to be honest, you're going to want everything else. Because this one needs a lot of work just to get it functional. Most obvious of the errors (which haven't yet corrected in the .zip but which I or one of the other mods here might correct for HMS_Frontier to save a second "corrected" upload) is the multiple spellings of "millennium" in the various files.
Also needing attention ---less as an error and more of a "wtf?" moment--- are the textures. I'm not positive that these textures are entirely fitting to this vessel. You're going to want to use the "noregistry" textures included-- the ship's ventral registry is some other ship's, reversed, while the dorsal registry looks like it's done in block letters rather than standard Starfleet-style scripting.
This isn't HMS_Frontier's first mod, and his progress, and his potential, as a modder is certainly evident. Like many of his other projects, it looks like it'll need a couple rounds of beta-testing (something that should've been done with the MOD prior to its being sent to A2Files anyway) in order to fully flesh out everything that could go wrong. The workmanship put into this mod is good, but not quite worthy of being called "great". Even the smallest detail out of place with Armada II --as we've all learned the hard way from time to time-- means the difference between an awesome Star Trek gaming experience and a frustrating evening of black-screen-of-death error hunting.
(And I'm not saying this to be cruel to you, HMS_Frontier. You're trying-- that counts for one hell of a lot with me. Don't stop modding on my account or anyone else's. She could be one truly awesome ship. I want to see it happen as much as you do. And I hope you can make it so.)
Worth a download if you're willing to help HMS_Frontier turn a good single-ship MOD into a great one.
