CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Hello 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. :) 031
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 23/09/2026@stu1701.bsky.social Have you seen this? 121
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 05/09/2026So 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. 001
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Wow! So cant wait for this. Just after my birthday on Saturday too. :) 000
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 02/09/2026I'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. 010
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 15/08/2026Also It kind of harkens back to an original STO promotional video... www.youtube.com/watch?v=zftB... 000
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 15/08/2026@thomasthecat.bsky.social I know this is very much hopium at this point, but would love to see a STO take on what "if" we got a refit of the Kelvin A in a TMP aesthetic. Just a thought to consider. Would put your unique stamp on what "could of been". :) Pretty please! 110
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 15/08/2026And 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? 110
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 15/08/2026I thought I'd list a few things still missing from STO in the Kelvin Timeline. * Beyond Uniforms * Spacesuit From the first film * Neros Staff * Section 31 pistol and uniforms * Beyond Phasers * Sulu's sord * A STO TMP variant of the Kelvin Timeline 1701-A Last ones a pure "I wish" addition lol. 110
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 14/08/2026The 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...;) 1277
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 03/08/2026Awesome. I had to second take on the 2nd pic as I thought it was a Dalek haha! 010
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 31/07/2026I think its the feedback pulse power. I always wait until they stop glowing before I fire lol. The Cardassians are a pain for that. NPC feedback pulse is way over powered. To be fair NPC drain ability's are way over powered compaired to the player haha. 110
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 25/07/2026The time I was invited on TenForward weekly by the @playstartrekonline.com team. This was always a highlight for me. Even though my internet connection was apauling. (Its so much better now, @vengeancegod.bsky.social if you ever want me back I would be grateful haha). www.youtube.com/watch?v=OWst...youtube.comTen Forward Weekly: Chill Q&A!YouTube video by Star Trek Online 030
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 25/07/2026Hello all. I've uploaded a new video on my YouTube channel showing off what can be achieved using Reshade. Some of the shaders used are paid for, like RayTracing so please keep that in mind when viewing. Also using custom textures and SFX which are all client side. www.youtube.com/watch?v=0C41...youtube.comStar Trek Online Reshade FX ShowcaseYouTube video by CaptainWallis FX 011
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 22/07/2026Haha love it! When the music kicks in too. 😉 101
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 21/07/2026OMG, this is amazing. Love all of it, but the reason I love this bundle so much...is for the lens flare vanity shield!! Hell yes! No I no longer need to mimic the effect on my Reshade pre-sets so this is a huge win for me. Thank you @playstartrekonline.com :) 041
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 11/07/2026Ok 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! 010
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 10/07/2026Hello 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 :). ;) 042
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 01/07/2026Greetings 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 0172
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 27/06/2026Really gorgeous design. Is this the one that's going to be in the upcoming Season 36 STO update? 110
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 26/06/2026Indeed. Me and my girl love dropout TV. She's addicted to Dimension 20 haha. 010
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 25/06/2026Glorious! I totally love this art too. Cant wait for July 7th! 030
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 13/06/2026Ahh yes, the Shinanigans class. I believe it was one of those iconic ship ports from the starship creator game that you imported over, that never really looked like what you actually created. 030
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 15/05/2026This is fantastic news indeed. I can try out some of my new Reshade pre-sets for STO too. See you all on the 22nd! 140
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 22/04/2026This so nice to see that it feels like were coming back home to the new "golden Era" of @playstartrekonline.com. Really awesome stuff indeed and cant wait to see what else is coming. Still holding out for the TMP Lexington and Ulysses Classes seen in SFC and Klingon Academy. Fingers crossed. 040

CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 19/04/2026Here is my first trailer for one of my Reshade pre Sets. Really happy with this one.

CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 16/04/2026A 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 1263
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 16/04/2026Haha right! I seriously don't know what's going on right now. Every time I go to view something it just says "forbidden" lol 010
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 16/04/2026Hello 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 030
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 07/04/2026Hey 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. 36310
Reposted by CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis)Ramona Flowers (Not That One) @hiccupmistress.bsky.social · 06/04/2026Tomorrow, #StarTrekOnline will replace this 16-year-old model with a fancy new reimagining. The designs from when the game launched are janky & (understandably) shunned, but even so, whenever a remaster is slated, I like to give the old ones a sendoff 🫡🖖 Farewell, Noble Class. #VirtualPhotography 1328
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 05/04/2026Happy First Contact day all! With the recent news of a remaster of one of STO's first ships, I thought I'd share this nostalgic nugget. I watched this on repeat when it was first revealed, and the Noble class takes centre stage in this original STO trailer. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5VWW...youtube.comStar Trek Online - Official TrailerYouTube video by STSection31 091
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 04/04/2026Good lord! Why on earth this film has not been given the HD/4K treatment with these kind of special effects replacements is beyond me. That zoom in on the conference lounge in the other video is just perfect. 110
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 03/04/2026OMG! @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! 520519
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 02/04/2026Not going to spoil the code but a little hint, its related to music. Im really curious as to what were actually going to get with First Contact day as not only is it the year of the 60th, but its also First Contacts 30th Anniversary too so First Contact theme surprises maybe...🤔 000
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 01/04/2026So 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 060
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 31/03/2026A 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 1364
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 29/03/2026This was my first attempts using STO's demo record function to re-create the TNG season 1/2 titles. My pre sets been refined since this old video but still thought it was cool to share. Happy 60th to Trek! www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQKx... @thomasthecat.bsky.socialyoutube.comStar Trek TNG Titles Recreation V 2YouTube video by CaptainWallis FX 030
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 29/03/2026Also, 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! 051
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 28/03/2026Hello 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 2264
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 28/03/2026Scorp done such an amazing job with this design. I originally was looking forward to the Suurock before I saw this beuty and now made it my main 2411 ship. @thomasthecat.bsky.social now that you can pull some strings, how about an Art of STO book? ;) 0353

CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 28/02/2026I'm loving the game. Already made a Reshade pre set for it too. Are you on the official discord for the game? 010
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 19/02/2026Hello all. I'm recently really enjoying the new Star Trek Voyager game and as per, decided to make a Reshade pre-set to emulate the look of the 90's show. Its a really brutal but fantastic game btw. www.nexusmods.com/startrekvyag...nexusmods.comStar Trek Voyager - Across The Unkown TVFX 1.0A simple Reshade Pre-Set that alters colours to match a CRT/90's TV aesthetic without having a CRT filter. 010
CaptainWallis (aka Ash Wallis) @captainwallis84.bsky.social · 27/09/2025Looks awesome. I do love Star Wars for sure, but Im going to hold out on this one and wait for the other mod they are working on. Armada 4 is looking REALLY good in the new Sins 2 engine. 010
