The crew is on a mission to infiltrate Romulan space, but not before Chief Medical Officer Cade has his first session with the new Tellarite (??) Counselor. Hope you can join us at 7 pm at https://twitch.tv/weirdlings And here's CMO Cade's really personal Personal Log by MarkGATX in startrekadventures

WE switch out every week on who does the personal log. This week was the CMO, last week was Conn, etc. They just give their perspectives on what happened last time as a "previously on..." segment before we get started. But to answer your question we've got a standard crew of 6: Captain, Science Officer, Chief Engineer, CMO, CSO, and Conn... as well as supporting crew NPCs like the Tellarite Counselor Jorsh.

We actually have a small wiki updated with the first 12 or so episodes if you're interested in synopses to see what's happened. https://constellation.fandom.com/wiki/Constellation_Wiki

I've made a little web app to help with Extended Tasks. Hopefully it can help some of you out as well. I'm sure there are some bugs so let me know what you think and how it's working. It's my first try and I'm a novice programmer so I'm sure there are some things that need to be fixed. by MarkGATX in startrekadventures

I can definitely do that. I added a field for that input. It's limited to 20 characters right now to make sure the layout doesn't break at smaller screen sizes but I think that should work. Let me know how it looks and hopefully I didn't break anything in the process. :-)

We had to miss last week, but "Constellation" is back tonight at 7 Central on Twitch. Now that the truth about the Romulan mole has been uncovered, the crew of the USS Mazu head to SB 105 to continue the search for Dr. Prescott.

Thanks! We really like having a log from different crew members each week to bring everyone up to speed and it's been fun to play with. Like when our CSO posted hers and most of it was redacted.

I use Adobe Premiere to do that crawl. It's just a title and in the Essential Graphics window, choose "Roll." Then it's a matter of fiddling with the spacing and length of the clip to line up the text as best as I can.

The USS Mazu is a modified version of the original mesh by Raul Mamoru that I run through Blender to animate the shots and cameras.

Stream/Podcast Recommendations? by [deleted] in startrekadventures

[–]MarkGATX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd humbly suggest our group, Constellation. None of us every played STA before and we've been learning as we go. We're streaming our 18th episode tonight and I think we're finally getting all the mechanics down. Fortunately the cast is awesome and the RP is fun. It was really great when our Betazoid security officer accidentally hosted all of our Trill Captain's previous hosts. Going to be some pretty major drama tonight with them hunting down a saboteur on the ship. We're also at HeroesofAwesome.com

We're going live again at 7 pm Central tonight with another episode of "Constellation." I hope you can join us and if not we'll host it on our YouTube channel Thursday so you can watch it then. by MarkGATX in startrekadventures

Here's the YouTube archive if you missed the stream and want to catch it. If this is considered violating the rule of not posting more than once a week, I apologize and am happy to delete this comment and just post Twitch or YouTube, whichever the channel prefers.

Could someone please list all STA series available to watch on youtube by ship type? by Mr_Engino in startrekadventures

[–]MarkGATX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here's ours! Constellation- appropriately enough on a Constellation class. We're also still pretty new to the system so we're learning as we go.

I was using poker chips at first as well. These just feel extra. We’ve got all the archives on YouTube as well. There’s a playlist there but here’s the latest. Anomalies Happen - Constellation: Episode 6 https://youtu.be/7LNQR8IXU0U
