not to put a damper on things...have you looked for other star trek themed mods and see if paramount allows them to use their intellectual property? a system shock mod was recently shut down by EA games...lucasarts used to shut down star wars mods back in the day... some copyright owners are real protective of their intellectual properties and others aren't...it'd be worth while to get an official answer before you get too much done...it'd be a shame to put a lot of effort into the project only to get a cease and desist letter from a nameless lawyer...

good luck on the project though
