Sadly, with the 1m deck you have to walk on, that only leaves 2m left over for hallway space.
The original Enterprise is 642.5 Meters x 467.0 Meters x 137.5 Meters. The Minecraft world uses 1m^3 blocks, ans so, I simply converted my already scaled plans into a format that minecraft could take and imported each deck in batch, leaving 4 spaces in between for walls. One day I need to go through and clean them up. The plans are pretty rough, but workable. One of the things that was not lost was the deck plans and a nice computer-friendly vector format, converted from the Whitefire plans (Not the Okuda ones). The only thing I had was my original framework and It was just too painful to start over. Sadly, my hard drive blew and I lost six months of work. One project I embarked on about a year ago was to build a 1:1 scale model of the enterprise in Sketchup. Even when I was a kid, I thought how cool it would be to build the ship and live in it.
I’ve always wanted to make a 1:1 scale model of the Enterprise-D. I’ll take some time to tell you guys about how I made the ship and what my plans are for it. I didn’t think this would go viral so quickly! It’s not even done and on top of that, the Minecraft servers are down so I can’t put it up…
