- Custom Starship Name
- You can now set a custom name in LCARS 47, which will display throughout the Apps
- LCARS 47 version 5 will also be updated to reflect the changes.
- The default name is "USS Champagne" in tribute to naval traditions, and the opening of Star Trek: Generations.
- Custom Registry
- As with the custom name, you can also set the registry (the default is NCC-79850).
- Starship Class Plugins
- You can download separate starship class schematics which will be displayed throughout the apps. Each plugin will overwrite any existing starship class schematic previously installed.
- Starship classes available are;
- Akira Class
- Defiant Class
- Galaxy Class
- Intrepid Class
- Nebula Class
- Nova Class
- Prometheus Class, and
- Sovereign Class (above)
- More starship classes will be released in time.
- Federation Database (below)
- After the release of version 6.0, data packs will be released, adding an array of new information in succession from the Federation database. Planned data modules are;
- Federation law, directives, orders and treaties
- Starship schematics
- Historical data, and
- Cartographic data
There's also a ton of new easter eggs, hidden secrets, and surprises.
That pretty much covers everything. Thanks to Stefan Blakemore for convincing me to add the schematics options. Just a note, there are no details on the release date, due to fluctuating development time, just check back or, visit http://i.thebluprint.org/LCARS.







I love this. Please keep it up. I have converted my Windows 7 desktop to the LCARS look using a few available programs (including yours) and I FREEKIN' LOVE IT.
ReplyDeleteKudos to you all
I'm glad you like it. Hopefully Windows Phone 7 will support Flash in the future, then I can get to work on some little apps. Don't worry, they'll be free. Thanks for the comment.
ReplyDeleteOh, I forgot to mention that I'm moving the project blog over to it's own dev blog. I won't be posting any more LCARS stuff here, unless it's a big update. www.lcars47.com
