Before and after comparison of the original STO model and the new one.

Material cross-section. Star Trek Online uses a material system where every starship is unwrapped to the same UV template, meaning we build most detail into the geometry and map those parts to appropriate sections on the material template.

The "refit" Enterprise as seen in Star Trek The Motion Picture and onward through Star Trek VI is often considered one of the best "fake" starships ever designed, and the favorite Enterprise of them all for many Star Trek fans. As Star Trek Online has advanced through the years, our model and texture budgets have also grown, and I felt it was time to bring this classic ship in line with the quality of some of our most recent work.

This model was a complete rebuild from scratch and includes a brand new material I also created.
