Prometheus Class, V1.0

The Prometheus class is one of the most well known ships from Star Trek, mainly from a new take on Starship Seperation; the Multi Vector Assault Mode. Dispite it's fame, this ship is a rather elusive one in Armada II, especially with MVAM support. While there is a version of the Prommie originally created by Deemon/Gonwee, time had not faired well with it.

So here I present a new Prometheus class model with MVAM support, as well as several diffrent textures to choose from. I admit that while I tried to get it as close to the cannon design, it's not perfect. But it is of good quallity, and it brings a bit of Diversity for the class.

Please note though, that the PP 1.2.5 patch is requred for MVAM support.

1 - Installation


Within the zip file you will find a directory for the core files, as well as directories for lower resolution textures and alternate borg textures. By default, the Prometheus uses 1024 by 1024 textures, to install the lower res textures (512 by 512) you MUST install the files in the Prometheus_Files directory FIRST!

Default install; extract the contents of the Prometheus_Files into your Armada II Directory.

Afterwards, either extract the textures from whatever alternate folder in the .zip's directory you wish into your Armada II Directory. The alternate directories contain as listed;

/Prometheus_Files - Core files and default textures
/low_res - Low resolution textures (Default and borg)
/GreenBorg_textures - Alternate borg textures with green nacelles, engines, ect.
/GreenBorg_low_res - Low res Alternate borg textures
