You can clearly see that both security officers in front of Spock's quarters in TSFS have red trousers and they both wear the armor used for the security officers in TMP. The same combination is used in TVH (example 1 & example 2
).
And according to Flechter a black collar is typical for all enlisted (except trainees).

So, I will do the best I can to mock-up whatever I can in order to represent them in the game.

The TOS Technician coveralls aren't in the game either. So, should I remove the mock-ups I did using the Enterprise uniforms? I think not.
No, because those are very close to canon while the TWOK enlisted uniform for example is clearly not.

And you're wrong. We also saw Lieutenant Dickerson in a Dress Uniform and it also had the gold piping down the front.

And you are right. Ensigns, crewmen and yeomen did not wear dress uniforms. The few that did dress up wore the Honor Guard uniforms, which were basically the standard Operations uniforms with the shirts tucked into a wide black belt.
I consider Lieutenant Dickerson's dress uniform a costume error (something that happened in Star Trek very often) because he wore the same uniform as Scott and McCoy, and wrong rank insignia is one of the most common costume errors (the other is the wrong uniform color).

Its neither Scotts's nor Dickinson's because both have only three triangles. And all other characters wearing dress uniform wore either much more triangles or an assignment patch.

That's McCoy's. It's been rotated, however, it should be blue, red, white, green (moving clockwise from the top).

Agreed.

It's not McCoy's either as that is already accounted for on Dress Badge 4. And the colors are exactly as they should be; purple, red, blue and green going clockwise from the top.

I will review the episodes again to be sure.

It looks much the same, but flipped and rotated. Your badge 4 is more exact, you're cquite correct.

It is also entirely possible it is not from ANY particular uniform and might just be a Cryptic hodgepodge.

That's what I'm thinking. It appears to be an amalgam of Scotty's and Dickerson's badges. Although that leaves me to wonder why they didn't just do Scotty's, unless perhaps they thought they may get some complaints about the lack of a Scarf and Kilt to go with it.

Oh, you know that would happen (I'm suprised I haven't seen it yet!).

It seems to me, that they used the triangles from Scotty's and Dickerson's dress uniforms to create this badge. The triangles a twelve o'clock and six o'clock aere identical to Scotty's, the other two can be found in Dickerson's.

I wonder if making a mockup of the alternate universe uniforms is allowed? I think the AGT uniforms can make a pretty good Kelvin type uniform. Just a thought.

I had the same idea. The AGT uniforms are very similiar to the Kelvin type uniforms which BTW are not from the alternate reality because they were introduced before Nero changed history.
The ENT unifomrs can be used for many TOS and TNG overalls.
The problem are those uniforms which do not have any close equivalents like the TWOK enlisted uniforms, the TNG skants, the TMP security armor etc.

I've created a skant version of the B-04 uniform by using the Nurse Split Skirt with amatching color.

In my mind its from an alternate universe, no matter what has been said. It makes far more sense that they traveled back in time to an alternate reality than the prime timeline since there are already a bunch of things that don't fit in. (Just my own opinion)

And I was referring to the alternate TOS uniforms.

I know about the overall uniforms, they are in this guide.

I think Blackavaar makes the best equivalents of the uniforms possible
