Hi all,

I notice a few of you have downloaded and I hoped tried my ST Character software.

I just wanted to let you all know I am working on expanding it and calling it Star Trek Wiki.

I am hoping to add all the things that are on the buttons page, like Tech, Food, Ships etc.

If anyone has any feedback please let me know.

Hope those that have tried it like it.

Regards
1mouse

Looks great from the screen shot. I won't be able to download it and run it for a few days, but it will make a handy database.

Is it just Classic Series characters or does it cover NG, DS9, Voyager, Enterprise and have episode guides?

@Darrin

It covers all the Star Trek characters and will include, eventually, an episode guide, tech info, ship info etc

Nice. It will interesting to follow the progress as you expand it.

I suggest you split it up and have external data files. If it's going to be completely OS4 compatable you have to think of the memory limits of all the models including classics. Some only have 256mb of ram, A 180.8MB exe is ridiculous even for a 512mb system.

It will also save a lot of compiling when you're just adding more data

What you need to do is something like an updated version of this: StarBase_SCR which no longer works on OS4.

I also suggest you upload it to document/misc not utility/misc.

I looked at it a little while ago - I will try the latest update soon (busy this weekend, but hopefully sometime next week) and give you some feedback.

I think it is a good concept, I love the use of LCARS. I would like to see a tv series episode guide in it, for TOS, TNG, DS9, Voyager, Enterprise. The original, tng and modern version Movies would be good too.

The character information is a good start. Expanding to a Wiki makes perfect sense.

Sometimes it is nice to watch a specific episode I enjoyed, but I can never remember where it was in the sequence of so many series...

Being able to search the wiki to find episodes and episode descriptions that feature the borg, cardassians or klingons for example (or a specific character like Q, Seven of Nine, Borg Queen, etc) would be useful!

I think it was mentioned already that the program needs some separate data files to avoid it getting really large and a problem to run on some systems! As a wiki I expect it will get much bigger, with more audio, video, picture contents driving up the size. Just a thought anyway.

I'd love something similar for Babylon 5 - probably my favourite sci-fi series....

I am grateful for the work so far on this project and sorry for the delayed feedback - please keep it up!

Catcha,
Epsilon

Like Darrin I will manage it on the week end, but I like what I saw on screeshots.
I'll keep you posted.

I have decided to do as you say and make it modular.

I have, for now, removed all aspects apart from the character information.

The tech, episode guide, ships etc can all be added separately at a later date as a module of its own.

I am nearing completion of the character section and it now has 10 pics as a maximum for the characters with pics.

I have amended the page with A, B, C, D etc and also the pages with the character names to look more like buttons.

Which section would people like to see added next? Episode Guide, Tech, Ships...

Please let me know and I can make a start on that section.

I'll upload to OS4Depot the character section soon.

I've made a start on the ships section which should be ready soon.

It will only have a dozen or so ships but should be worth checking in on.

There are some animated ships images and some title tracks on the pages for the main ships, such as the voyager title theme on the Voyager ship page and DS9 title on DS9 ship page etc.

This database will have the same title pages, I am planning on using the same title page for all sections, tech, food etc and then when each section is complete enough they can be put together.

All feedback and requests are greatly appreciated.

Will upload soon.

@1Mouse

Have you considered one for StarWars? Yes I know it's the enemy of StarTrek. But you could call it StarWars Wookie.

@Darrin

I can understand Classic being in there but is Enterprise considered a real StarTrek? A lot of people seem to hate it and it doesn't have proper music. I mean it doesn't have a StarTrek theme and sounds like it has some Bryan Adams song instead. It doesn't fit in!

@Hypex

I'm afraid it covers all Star Trek, films, TOS, TNG, VOY, DSP, ENT, TAS I think that's all of them
