Really hyped for the upcoming Legendary Vet Destroyers. One thing I'm hoping stays the same on them is the combat mode. I use the Type 8 mat for my TMP main character and I LOVE how when it transforms, its gets an Excelsior style neck. @thomasthecat.bsky.social Can you say if this will be the case?

Hello all. So I've still been tinkering with DLSS 5 in STO (Yes I know its a delicate subject atm), but I'm rather happy with the effects so far in space, especially in regards to lighting. I'm using completely custom textures in these screenshots which are all client side, including reshade. :)

So as Its my birthday today I decided to sit and relax and play through Star trek Resurgence with my custom Reshade pre-set which I've updated to include the DLLS 5 neural rendering. I was against this at first, but it kinda works on older games. Been really enjoying my playthrough again so far.

I've been playing around and testing the recent DLSS 5 neural processing filter with reshade and managed to get it working with STO. I'm not a fan of AI being used for art or games in general, but for a 10 year old game its not so bad. Makes skin look natural at least. Ships look nice too.

And the only reason for the last request is because of CaptainWhitmere's awesome rendition of a possible "retrofit" of the Kelvin Timeline A. I mean...It just works, right?

CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 14/08/2026

The Kelvin timeline lives on in @playstartrekonline.com . Will probably never get a new Kelvin timeline film, but we can always imagine the "what if" scenarios in STO. @thomasthecat.bsky.social. So need some more Kelvin timeline stuff though. Beyond uniforms, phasers, Nero's staff...;)

Ok hear me out! Was roleplaying in @playstartrekonline.com today with my TNG themed main and had a "nerdy" idea. Was in the holodeck and decided to spawn the Echo Pappa drone to have a little...target practice. @thomasthecat.bsky.social could you make this a program we could run in game. haha!

Hello all. Just a quick show off of the latest Ray-trace shaders I'm using in Reshade for @playstartrekonline.com. A few before and after shots. they are very subtle, but I'm happy with how its looking. Both in space and on ground works well currently. All shots taken in game using TNG FX 2.5 :). ;)

CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 01/07/2026

Greetings all. In preparation for the next STO content update, I've been playing around with the latest version of Raytracing on my STO Cinematic FX Rehsade pre set. Works well in game as well as taking screenshots. Pretty happy with the results so far. @thomasthecat.bsky.social

CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 16/04/2026

A little update now that Bsky seems to behaving. A few more shots of my TMP Reshade pre set. Using the Gamma Rep impulse engines for that undiscovered Country look! @thomasthecat.bsky.social @playstartrekonline.com

CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 16/04/2026

Hello all. Been updating some of my old pre sets and currently going over the TMP FX pre set and added the motion blur shader along with an updated flair effect. The film grain is not so bad when in game just to note. @thomasthecat.bsky.social @playstartrekonline.com

CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 07/04/2026

Hey all. Hope everyone's enjoying the new Noble Class battle cruiser. I for one certainly am. Its a proper Nostalgic hit for me being a long time STO player. Here are a few shots of the beauty using my Reshade Cinematic Pre-Set for @startrekonline.bsky.social . @thomasthecat.bsky.social , thank you.

CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 03/04/2026

OMG! @startrekonline.bsky.social I cant believe this. I litterally fell in love with this. I heard a rumour and had an idea in my head of what it could look like but nothing prepared me for this! The more I look at it as well, the more It looks like it has a unique animation mode. Im speechless!

CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 01/04/2026

So I've seen a lot of hype recently regarding a potential Sovereign class remaster. It's all rumour and hype of course, but still exciting. Personally I'd love if we ever designs similar to the original concept art for First Contact. Just saying ;) @thomasthecat.bsky.social

CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 31/03/2026

A few more images to celebrate the most recent STO First Contact day tease. All taken in demo record using some new motion blue shaders and lighting tweaks. Proper fun to use taking screenshots. @thomasthecat.bsky.social

CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 29/03/2026

Also, updating my TNG Reshade pre set too. After hearing the recent TNG opening theme in the recent @trekonlinegame.bsky.social FB post, its inspired me to refine my pre-set a little more. I'm a sucker for TNG so this is long overdue for a modern Reshade tinkering!

CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 28/03/2026

Hello all. Its been a long road. lol. Working on updating my Reshade Cinematic FX for STO to add some new effects which look pretty cool when viewing cut scenes in @trekonlinegame.bsky.social . Here are a few images of the new my NX Picard/2011 variant with the pre set. @thomasthecat.bsky.social

CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 22/03/2025

Just a few images from the TOS Federation tutorial with the Prototype Theseus. Also a beauty shot of the Shangri-La class. Love these new ships.

CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 13/03/2025

Ok now we have a decent ammount of TMP ships in STO it would be mega cool if we had a 3rd Type 8 material which gives a more TMP look. Eg yellow impulse deflector, whiter hull, orange impulse engines glow etc. @thomasthecat.bsky.social would you consider this in the future for us ship nerds 😉

CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 10/03/2025

So tomorrow is the big day. This is definitely the ship bundle I've been wanting for a very long time, and really cant wait to see. I know what ever ships are included, I will be happy being a HUGE TMP era fan. I'll post the TMP preset shortly after the release. LLAP @thomasthecat.bsky.social

CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 06/03/2025

Greetings. To celebrate the release of the 15th Anniversary bundle, I will also be releasing my TMP Reshade pre set for STO on the same day and decided to do a little fun countdown. Cant wait to see the full bundle. @thomasthecat.bsky.social @pundus.art :)

CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 03/03/2025

Really looking forward to the TMP themed Aniversay bundle. @thomasthecat.bsky.social one question if I may, but do you ever think you will add an additional Type 8 hull material that gives off the more red/orange look of the impulse engines? I'm a suckerfor orange impulse engines lol.

CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 16/02/2025

Screenshot Sunday. More images of my TMP FX Reshade pre set. Need to find a new flare shader as the old one no longer works with the latest update. Hopefully the new Anniversary bundle gets announced next week as I can hardly wait. lol

CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 13/02/2025

Greetings all. Hope your all enjoying the Anniversary. Here's a few little images from my TMP Reshade pre set. Hopefully should have it ready in time for the 15th Bundle. @thomasthecat.bsky.social @pundus.art

CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 11/02/2025

Testing the new pulse phaser weapon fx with my new reshade TMP fx pre set. @thomasthecat.bsky.social they are absolutely perfect. I'm not sure if anyone's noticed but they also have a new impact effect too with sparks just like in Wrath Of Khan. Literally can not wait until the Anniversary bundle!

CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 09/02/2025

And a few bonus images. Was trying to look for a system that looked similar to the Mutara Nebula in TWOK.

Greetings all. Been working on my TMP FX reshade filter today and been working on a flare effect. Been looking at some shots from the films and tried to add the flare effect from various spot/nav light sources. Let me know what you think. @thomasthecat.bsky.social @pundus.art

CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 06/02/2025

A few images of an updated Reshade preset I'm working on for @trekonlinegame.bsky.social. Inspired by Drays reshade work, here is my take on a TMP style reshade preset for taking screenshots in game. I've added a blue highlight toggle with F9 to give it a more Treks 3n4 vibe. Coming soon

CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 06/02/2025

Greetings all. Finally made the move here, sop apologies for the lack of content. Anyways, happy birthday @trekonlinegame.bsky.social. Super excited for the anniversary bundle so to celebrate I'm updating my TMP FX Reshade preset.
