Reply to Star Wars Mod in Sins Modding Sins Forums

I've always been irritated by the idea that 'heros' are somehow vastly better than regular well trained crews/pilots. Oh look, a hero is piloting that snub fighter. You can tell because it's shields/hull/weapons are 1.5 times as powerful (wtf!?!?) In most cases, the 'hero' ship is effectively nothing more than a uberized ship that has little to do with the pilot being an ACE. Why even call it a hero? Might as well just call it an advanced snub figh

I loved the Homeworld 2 Warlords mod. The only thing that bugged me was the game map size limitation. As it was, the mod was far more epic than the game could handle. Even SoaSE doesn't fully do EvilleJedi's creation justice. But it does a better overall job than HW2 could do.

Reply to Star Wars Mod in Sins Modding Sins Forums

I was just playing around with gravity well sizes. Of course, bigger gravity wells than what EvilleJedi is presently using just makes it progressively harder to keep track/control of 'non hotkeyed' ships. Hehe, I find it ironic that the Warlords SoaSE conversion suffers from a similar problem as Warlords did with Homeworld 2 super large maps.

I tend to think it makes it more epic. The problem is that having even bigger planets with enormous super star destroyers = no room for your ships to actually move without collisions. Personally, I think that the ships should all be cut down in size by 20-25% and the planets increased by 50% (using the present gravity well size). That would leave the capital ship details still visible. It would also allow super capital ships to operate. Finally, the enla

Hi Ashley19. I am not sure how well the Executor class or the Eclipse class would work within Sins. As it is now, they would be awefully large for the maps (even with the gravity wells being oversized as they are). Also, Eville still has to deal with limited ship slots per faction (at least Stardock increased that a bit). Still, I have a hard time seeing Eville not toss in the Executor class at the very least. Maybe he'll decrease its size a bit to make it more

I think EvilleJedi already has his list of frigates, cruisers and caps planned out (thank you Ironclad for raising the capital ship limit). From what I understand, he is trying to balance the cost and power of several cruisers versus more powerful single capital ships. I think I read in one of Eville's posts that he was planning on disallowing the free start capital ship. Since this mods time period is supposed to be after the Battle of Endor, I am wondering about the

Having played around with this mod, it occurs to me that we now know what the Vasari are running from...hehe.

Hi guys, I rarely come out to play Sins these days. But the promise of EvilleJedi's mod has lured me back into the forums. The mod looks amazing. The only glitch I've seen is the sound effects occasionally failing to work. The larger gravity wells work beautifully with the faster, longer weapon ranged Star Wars ships. It is a shame that my attempts at making larger gravity wells complete with planets AND stars failed (the stars looked like crap because we couldn't get the lu

Hi guys, my ICO name is [GE] Paradoxnt. Notice the space between [GE] and Paradoxnt. The imposter's name ([GE]Paradoxnt)doesn't have a space between [GE] and Paradoxnt. Whoever this guy is, he is embarrassing the entire clan community. I wonder what I did to personally become the focus of this guy. I really try not to piss people off, although I do occasionally make exceptions. The individual in question here must be of below average intelligence if they thought that they c

Hi Darth, it is probably best you wait until you have wireless before applying. There is an entrance test that requires multiplayer.

Great work Third, it is great that someone finally took the initiative of forming this structure. As for other organized clans, anybody hear from SobanForce or RaY?

Reply to Presenting Clan X in Sins Clans Sins Forums

Fair enough Astax. Although I think most of the posts around that time were influenced by the game having crashed and neither side being able to agree on the most likely outcome. The interaction between our clans is once again more friendly (as it should be). Now we are just excited to see who will prove best in this next game coming up (as I hope you guys are as well).

Reply to Presenting Clan X in Sins Clans Sins Forums

That's cool HuntingX. However, I am sending my best 3 guys against your clan, so maybe you might want to have Jinx, Drexion and Astax back up your side instead. It might also work out easier for timing a game between our two clans. Monday at 3:30pm EST (or later) would work best. Let me know if that is cool guys. I'll also check in on IRC tomorrow to see if you guys are on.

Lol, we know exactly what you mean about playing pubbers. Anything works on them. After a while, it really drags your skill down because what is the point in even trying. That was why I was actually glad to hear your guys beat our members in that first game. The GE now takes you guys seriously enough to actually put our best players against you . It is fun playing out a battle when you don't actually know the end result already...;) As for IRC, I'll come on periodically t

Common Astax, no need for sarcasm. Let's not forget that we are all friends here who enjoy playing SoaSE together. Be honest here, would you rather play against the GE and have a hard fight, or would you rather have a cake walk against the other groups/clans online? All three GE members who played against you had good things to say about your skill (and Jinxs) Sarcasm and arguments over unfinished games only leads to pissing each other off = less fun playing each other.

Just a little update on the map status. We will have to remove the fake 'stars' within each system's gravity well. As it is, these fake stars do not have the illumination effect = they look dark and ugly. We were hoping the devs would get back to us on how to fix this, but they never did. However, besides the main planets, each system will be able to have additional 'resource planets', gas giants, asteroid fields and so on. Just no stars...unless the devs get back to us on how to ma

Geezzz guys, how about we just try to play another game? There is no need for nastiness here. For my fellow GE members, we should be pleased that team X can offer us a challenge. So far, they are the only ones who are skilled enough to give us a good run for the win. As it is, we were starting to lose interest in playing other clans. Clan X has given us reason to come back out and play. As for Clan X posting official clan wins for games that crashed long before the outcome

Lol! Don't worry Captain. There are a lot of clans you could try out for. If you'd like, you could try applying to the GE clan for membership. They have the largest player base (for SoaSE) and are presently recruiting again.

They would likely be more effective recruiting if they had clan tags, but it certainly has no effect on their skill level.
