You can get older (but still fairly new) versions of modeling software for much, much cheaper. Also, if you're a student (college), you can aquire it for very low cost as well, if not free from your university.

@MrNiceGuy - No you're not in trouble, and delete it if you feel bad about having uncredited work on your HDD. Or keep it. No one cares very much or will ever do anything about it. Obviously this guy just took a bunch of different resources from many different mods and put them together in a big almagamation, without and proper credits whatsoever. All of that is painfully obvious. I think the only thing actually "stolen" is kyro's work. The rest is just unowned work tha

I had to do some serious modding to really enjoy Supcom, but it was indeed a wonderful game, even if it makes me reinstall Total Annihilation and it's mods too just for the nostalgia factor.
Obama won't be the massive change everyone expects. The power of the president is actually a lot less than many believe, including mr GWB, but imo, he was much more suited for our country than McCain was. We need a better economy and better foreign relations are what we need for the short term. Fiscal Conservatives have tanked our economy. Go figure.... And foreign relations, well, he wins that hands down for obvious reasons. For the long term, he'll let us keep the freedoms we have and we'll
I thoroughly enjoy terror stars. It's more of a vindictive, rp point of view though. I don't care about metaverse anything (or any other online achievement electronic-manhood enhancers for that matter). They're fun to me, so I don't care that I could be doing something "non retarded". They're inefficient in every way possible, but they're fun. The '68 stingray in my garage that I'm restoring is a horrible excuse for a car. It's fun, but that's all it's got compared to w
The 5 activation thing bothers me because it's, imo, just renting the game. I've installed games I love well over 5 times. I install, play until I'm sick of it, uninstall. Get a new laptop or desktop, install, new hardware, etc. I've installed Diablo 2 hundreds of times. Not literally, but a ridiculous amount over 5. Even newer games like Oblivion that I want to love, but don't. I play for a bit, get sick of it, delete it to free some HDD space. Then after a few months,
An EA game? That means I won't buy it. Actually, it just means that there's a 90% chance I won't buy it, and a 70% chance that the game was rushed, buggy, and/or utter triol. Invasive or arbitrarily restrictive DRM means I'll never buy it. I can see the thought process behind it all, but it boggles my mind when you punish your loyal customers while the pirates are playing a superior product. If it's just so amazing that I can't live without playing it [e digicons]:|[/e]
Isn't 7ds hitting the stringID limit? or close to? Perhaps I missed that that limit is going to be fixed, but if not, it alone will prevent any ridiculously large mod from seeing the light of day. That's not even considering an eventual expansion.
Useful, perhaps not, but when those damned thalans backstab you, fight you for years and years, and then all of a sudden want peace because you've destroyed every system they've ever had a planet on and their homeworld stands alone in the darkness... there is no mercy among the stars...
[quote] Noting is impossible in the modders comune. Rules are mate to be bend. Limits are mate to be broken. [/quote] As nice as this rhetoric sounds, there are limits currently that cannot be changed by mods. Period. It will take a source code fix to change that, and we don't have access to that.
The idea is essentially a pipe dream, and that's being nice about it. It's unfeasible in every sense of the word. Discounting all of the logical reasons why that is so, it's also actually impossible. The hard coded limits will stop you short well before you have enough for an alpha test. Also, in Space Above & Beyond, the alien race was called Chigs, not chicks. It's not that having ideas is bad, but people posting outlandish ideas over and over again with no tal

A well balanced, accurate, and 100% populated B5 universe in Sins would be an amazing thing to behold. But I think it's unrealistic to hope for that, at least in any reasonable amount of time. Having a fleet of battlecrabs battle a fleet of omegas in a highly inaccurate battle is better ten-fold than waiting until a balance can be fairly made so that the one battlecrab can take out the omegas with ease, yet not rule the entire game. Having an Omega that's taxing my system
There's some truth and some horrible, horrible noob comments in here, but [quote] Because after Halo, Mass Effect is just so predictable.)[/quote] made me laugh out loud.
Slight Spoilers... You see turian and asari ships in the end cutscene, and probably every other cutscene that shows the citadel. Perhaps the Destiny Ascension is the only Asari vessel, but I thought there were more. It's been awhile since I've played, excluding the 0/30 random item grinds, it was a lot of fun but didn't hold my attention for too long. You see the Turian ships near the end, Sovereign rams one of them I believe. The Turians are similar looking but still very diff
It'd be fun to see some of the ships in game. They look simple enough in game to not be a pain to model. Also, you see several Turian, Earth, Asari, and Geth ships in the cut scenes, so you have plenty of material to work with already.
meh, personally I'd like a mix of the two. Perhaps see your troops moving across the map and taking over the "flags". Although I do like the new screen to the old one. Both are just there to hold the skip button for me though. I have no need to watch the drawn out version of either battle.
I use them mostly for the same reason CoBBQ does. More for RP purposes I suppose. Also, if a race particularly made me mad one game, I will destroy it's empire piece by piece, until finally using a terror star to destroy their home world (via it's star). It's not just about winning the game, it's about being evil and cruel along the way. Heh. 8)
The new Nvidia cards are slightly, and I mean only slightly better, but cost almost 2x. And 2 ATI's > 1 Nvidia
They're making it for TA, it's "coming soon", if you had read a bit before posting. You have to register, I'd guess, because 1- The file is too large for the library here. 2- They want their own space to monitor feedback and other responses, while having control over spam and unneeded garbage posts. 3- Because they hate you. That's all a giant guess though, as it seems fairly common sense to me. Minus the hating you part. I hate most people, especially on the internet, so I'm a bit bia
This made me smile. Thanks OP. Personally, I'd hate playing this game on multiplayer. I'd be constantly yelled at for watching TV and not noticing it's my turn.
EA drops support for many games all of the time. Even if I only use 1 of my activations, if they kill the servers I can't play Mass Effect anymore. Period. Why would I waste my money on a game I'm not guaranteed to play when I want to play it? I'm not going to go buy another license just because I used up my activations on my PC, my Laptop, and then my PC again after I upgrade too much. I don't understand the need to have to call and ask permission to play the game I bought. You won't c
I haven't tried this, but, if you create your own set of ships, and create your own ship style, then select that as your custom race's style, then they should auto-update. You could just replace a few ships in a default set if you don't want to create an entire new ship style yourself, just save it as under a different name, create your custom race, and enjoy. *not guaranteed to work, as I never got a custom ship style to work properly with the drengin super ability, I forget
I hate getting things for free and I hate having a central place to check the information for said things as well. The creators of those free things should all go to hell for wanting to easily keep track of who downloads their mods, and the current released versions. Hopefully everyone is intelligent enough to understand the seriousness of that statement. I had quite a few ships hacked away from the old ST mod, but somewhere along the way of cleaning out my DL and DA mods fold
