FASA猎户座飞船：星际迷航星际飞船零件套件扩展版#8

Note: Because Thingivee has had problems in the past, especially with including all files in a single zip, I’ve also posted these files to an alternative Google drive location. You can access that location here:
This is the eighth expaion parts kit meant to complement my original Star
Trek Cotitution Class Parts Kit,
providing parts and ship models to support the Orion ships from the old FASA
Star Trek role playing game.
See my Thingivee Profile
for the full list of parts kits I’ve released so far. All parts are meant to be
cross-compatible between kits.

This kit supports the following FASA Orion ship classes:
Lightning blockade runner
Wanderer blockade runner
Dwarfstar freighter
Swift Solaria slaver
Aral blockade runner
The FASA Star Trek
RPG was
very popular among us older Star Trek fa who came of age in the '80s and '90s.
It lost its licee to produce Star Trek in 1988, seemingly because Gene
Rodenberry, hot off of the success of TNG season 1, wanted to de-emphasize the
military aspect of Starfleet, despite the abundance of uniforms, ranks, and
50-megaton matter-antimatter warheads that all his shows were chocked full of.
FASA Trek provided a tremendous amount of background on a Trek univee that
was, in many ways, more realistic and interesting than what Rodenberry and
company wanted in TNG and later shows. Although much of this background has been
supplanted by later official canon, the ships from this game remain popular
among old-school fa.
Notes on scaling and working with Blender
My target scale for all source files and output STL files is 1:1000. Although
these files have not been exteively tested through printing, they are intended
to be resized to match common modelling and miniatures scales.

Blender is free, which to be honest was the
primary factor in my decision to learn it. There are many fine video and text
tutorials available online if you're interested in learning more. For a basic
tutorial on moving and joining objects in Blender(which should be the minimum
you need to know when working with these parts), see this itructables
tutorial. You
can use File -> Import -> Stl (.stl) and File -> Export -> Stl (.stl) to
load or save STL files in blender.
Note: These kits were built using Blender 2.8.
Post-processing STL output
Although all of the STL files included have been tested as valid watertight
meshes, joining the parts together and exporting new STL files can introduce
small erro that may cause issues with slicing programs. I recommend any STL
files you create are checked using a program like Netfabb Basic free
edition.
Doing a simple "Close All Holes" repair has fixed most of the issues I've run
into so far. If you do run into issues with mesh quality, please let me know.
Parts list
Unlike the Thingivee veion, I’ve posted a separate folder in this Drive
location for each ship. Iide each folder you’ll find a zip file containing the
Blender files, part and ship STL files for the design.
The following lists provide a summary of the included parts form all the zip
files. For the majority of items, the mesh origin has been set so that when you
import these objects into your 3D editor of choice, they are positioned as they
would be on the sample ships provided.

This file contai two blender files for each design: a parts file, containing the STL parts arranged as used in the sample ship desig, and a parts source file, containing the raw blender objects used to create the parts.
