Frequently Asked Questions

What version of Sins of a Solar Empire is supported?
Sins of the Fallen is a modification for Diplomacy and Rebellion. 

How do you install Sins of the Fallen?
Please read How to install Sins of the Fallen.

Why does your mod have so many folders?
As Sins of a Solar Empire is a 32bit game it is restricted to 2GB of ram utilization as well as other various hard coded limitations. The stacking structure used with this mod allows more than 2GB of content by allowing portions of the mod to be loaded.

Will you support Entrenchment or Vanilla?
No, I did have previous versions that supported Entrenchment (See Release History), but have decided the it was too much effort for one person to try and maintain both.

Fall of Transhumanity

Been subbed to thread.  Saw on my lunch break.  Commented on the balls of who added it (*glares at Zombie*).  Methinks the Maelstrom peeps might have something to say about that claim.

Also, how's the progress on the Plague coming?

Well sins of the fallen is the highest ranked expansion mod in the rebellion category on moddb. And Maelstrom would probably be just  fine with it.

Oh, you already know I like yours better.  I wouldn't bill my mod the way you are, though.  I can see it rubbing people the wrong way.

I was wondering where that claim came from.  :P

Reply #1255 from Sins Forums Top

I know it is me. But this is not working. They are not leveling up. ( like coming out at level 3 ).

I added the lines. I made the price to level, 0. 

 

researchModifier
    modifierType "ExperienceConstantGainRate"
    baseValue 0.000000
    perLevelValue 200.000000
researchModifier
    modifierType "ExperienceConstantGainLevelCap"
    baseValue 0.000000
    perLevelValue 3.000000

Is how I have it. experienceaward line is just like they way you said.

I'm at a loss. I have spent countless hours trying to figure this out. They still will only build two caps at most. AND wont even level up to 3. EVEN with it being free. I made the cost of the caps 1 for each. ( crystal, metal, money)

I don't get it. What am I doing wrong.



EDIT: HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA I, at this time, would like to call myself a dumbass.

researchfloatmodifiers= How many researchmodifiers there are.

( I knew it was me that was messing this up)

 

Thank you Zombie for all your help. And for the time you took to make your mod.

( Now to go undo all the other crap I tried, trying to get this to work)

hi,

 

i have downloaded newest version for rebelion... most things are working, but not races... original races modified by you, are working, but no rogue plague ect...

 

i wanted only few addons, so it looks like:

planet mod

artifact mod

vasari race,

tec race

advent race

capital ships mod

core

 

setup above is working without issues. but when i add custom races, im getting only 3 original, rogue and hypercorp are not shown

also when i want to upload only custom races, im getting minibump

 

any idea ?

I don't get which file I'm supposed to download for the full version of this mod.  Is it not this one?

http://www.moddb.com/mods/sins-of-the-fallen/downloads/sins-of-the-fallen-rebellion-15120

My Sins Rebellion is updated to 1.52, I put it in the Mods-Rebellion v1.52 folder, and can enable it in the mods menu ingame, but after it loads nothing changes.

It uses a branching system to help bypass certain inherent limits.  Read the load order: http://www.moddb.com/mods/sins-of-the-fallen/features/how-to-install-sins-of-the-fallen1

Reply #1260 from Sins Forums Top

Ok so I read about the load order, but even if I load just the four planetary system mods at the top like it says, it'll give me a minidump error. Here is what my Sins looks like.

It can be a bit confusing at first- but: here is what the planet sections says...

Rules and order of activation:SotF Planet [System] [Version] (Activate 0..1 only)

  • Optionally activated (i.e. a Fallen Planet System does NOT need to be activated, instead default planets will be used).
  • Only one planetary system should be activated at a time (i.e. don't activate Sol then Rigel as you'll only get Sol).
  • Planetary systems should be the TOP mod in the list.
End of quote
This means you can only activate 1 planet package at a time. Also, for any Sins of the Fallen Package to work at least one playable Race must be selected and SotF Core must be the last item in your mod activation.
 
The reason you can't just activate the SinsPlus planet package is because it references common files like PlanetBonuses in the Core package.

Edit - I'm able to activate Rogue, Hypercorp, Nephilim and Plague with or without any of the 3 vanilla races. I hate to ask because it's such a large download, but you may need to download it again. Fortunately it's also the newest version with the Plague Titan and Corvette.

Walking Dead edition, eh?  Anyway, I won't be a happy man until the Nephilim are done.  Regardless, I'll see what you did with the Plague (haven't checked them out in Rebellion yet).  Have you seen what your mod looks like under 1.79?  I also still have to convert a shitload of work from the Maelstrom files in the mean time...

I need to fix some textures and tangents for the older meshes. Most of it's learning curve related.

Reply #1267 from Sins Forums Top

Yes, and seeing how roughly more than half of the models were done by me for the Nephilim. (Not tooting my own horn here.) Just supplied the models to Zombie here and he's done a fantastic job with them, but I always felt the textures on them were a bit incomplete. Zombie has done a fantastic job at the mod as far as I can see since he asked to use the models, but of course what probably blew things out of the water was the Plague race, them textures are awesome ;)

The mod wouldn't be the same without the models from you and the others (if at all). The nephilim were however the hardest to texture even remotely well especially considering I had no prior experience with modelling or texturing (all learn by fire). There are times when the ships look great though. Unfortunately there are still quite a few that need some love.

 

Nephilim Aggression

Reply #1269 from Sins Forums Top

Yeah, that was one of the better textured ones that was done :D

Wavefront (*.obj) is probably the most portable format to export to. 

I can work with lwo or 3ds to if necessary.

Thanks
