Merced class light cruiser

The Merced class is one of those ships that have been mentioned, but never shown on screen. There are several non-canon designs, and this is my own personal take on this ship. I decided to combine two of the most elegant Starfleet ships, the Excelsior and the Miranda class (using excellent meshes/textures by P81 of both ships) into something that would be an Excelsior-style successor to the Miranda class.

Installation:
-------------

Copy the file fmerced.sod into the SOD folder
Copy the .tga files into the Textures > RGB folder
Copy the file fmerced.odf into the ODF > ships folder
Copy the file fmerced.bmp into the Bitmaps > Admiralslog folder

Open the file fyard2.odf or fyard.odf (whichever shipyard you want the ship
To be built from) and insert the line: buildItemXX = "fmerced" under
build Parameters below the last ship to be build
XX being the next unused number

Save that file

Open "tech 1" from the Techtree folder and insert this line:

fmerced.odf 1 fyard2.odf // merced class

Save this file, open "fulltech.tt" and insert the following line

fmerced.odf 0

Then save and open "GUI_global.spr" from the sprites folder

Then add this line under federation build buttons:

b_fmerced gbfmerced 0 0 64 64

Add this under:

@reference=128
@tmaterial=interface

fmercedw1 fmercedwire 40 0 40 40
fmercedw2 fmercedwire 0 40 40 40
fmercedw3 fmercedwire 40 40 40 40
fmercedw4 fmercedwire 80 0 40 40
fmercedw5 fmercedwire 0 0 40 40
