I'm searching for Schematics from the Nova Class, especially from the bridge.
Are there any Fact Files Pics currently available?
I already have the Schematics from StarTrek The Magazine!
Any help would be great!!

Argh! Really? Not even fan-ones?

Does anyone have a guess how they made the bridge designs in the fact files? Obviously there must be some kind of kit, because some figures, chairs and textures are the same.

Hey Nemesis, I'm a big Nova fan and I'm searching for bridge schematics just like you. I haven't seen any official bridge schematics, but I made a pretty accurate one based on the only image I saw of the bridge. Basically, it has all the elements of the Prometheus bridge, except it's refit alittle. I'll try and find that little schematic I did.

Well that's great!
Post it please when you have found it!
Currently i'm trying to rebuild the Equinox bridge by using Schematics from the Fact Files.
Did you notice that most parts of the Equinox bridge are a reuse from the Prometheus bridge?
Oh, btw thanx!

I wouldn't be surprised as the same set has been redressed many times. I think the set first appeared in ST3 as the Excelsior.

Come to think about it, my favourite-nominees for the next "Fact Files Bridge Schematics" are indeed the Excelsior, Prometheus or Nova.
Now if only someone could tell them to haul ass, eh Bernd?

You say that graphic is from the Fact Files? Man I wish I could get them. That looks alot like the type of graphics they use in Star Trek: The Magazine. Very cool.

As I recall, the Equinox had a sunken are for the conn/ops console as well but I think the console itself was a bit different. The command area had two chairs like Voyager IIRC.

IIRC, Aban, a lot of the ship stuff in The Mag is directly from the Fact Files.

Interesting. Are the Fact Files an official publication like the Magazine?

They're by the same people as the Magazine.
They say "The Official Star Trek Fact Files" in big letters on the cover.

They don't have "official" schematics, but if you want to see schematics and spectacular CGI stills and animations of starships in action, visit SciFi-Art. The Nova Class can be found there, as well as almost every other class of starship. These aren't screenshots, but re-created CGI models, painstakingly researched and presented on a very slick java site. The detail on these models is so accurate, I have used many of their images as references for my modeling.

You'll do a lot of looking around. To get to the CGI schematics of the Nova Class, go to the Archived Section, then select "Shipyard", then select USS Pathfinder from the list. This is a Nova Class ship.

Yeah, but the SFA Nova is inaccurate. The stardrive isn't streamlined in the front.

I reckon that the prommie bridge is just a generic 'shakedown' bridge... possible similar to the one that the E-D had during its development... I mean look at it its pretty spartan...
