Yes indeed. You are bearing withness to the new Atlantian structures. These are made by one half of the Atlantian race, the Orions. Covered in pure Orichaculm, these structures proclaim loud and clear that they are Atlantian. You are also bearing witness to MY fully funtional and operational BATTLESTATION. Yes my friends, Space Stations are coming to 7DS with 2.0, no purchase required. As such however, only certain races have them right now. Atlanti

Thank you Mansh00ter. I have also struggled with the seam issue. I found the best way is to make the areas near the edges all uniform. This usuallt helps. The other thing is to make a map like a gas giant or star, and utilize all the space, just stay away from the edges with detail. Again, minor fixes, but it cuts down on the "apparent" seams. I can't wait to see some planets you are making! DANMAN

Teal, Yes, it is not only possible, it is something I am working on. I know Mansh00ter is working on this as well. I feel planets in general are not really to scale. I hope to change that. Mansh00ter, always a pleasure to have you here in this thread. I can't wait to try out your new explosions, but after the school stuff is done. I will check out that "little helper", but I think using 3D MAX will be better, but this will be a great tool fro thos

Mansh00ter, Had to personally give you congrats on this. The video is fantastic. Of course you know that I will be mergin this into 7 DEADLY SINS. And I do use Bailknight's mod as well as WLD's mod, and some special effects of my own, so that may be why Sparda or others are getting trouble. They may have to wait until I merge everything. Also, I like your style and Bailknights, and I am torn between the two, especially for capital ship explosions. I

[quote who="nicorius21" reply="3" id="1897271"] Quoting Major Stress, reply 2 You will probably need to wait another year, or so for a full conversion mod, because they can take just as long as a professional games to develop. Right now Sins is still "new", and there many things that still need to be learned about the engine. Least some mods here are making better progress than HW2.

Manshooter, This is terrific news. I just had a brief chance to read this thread. This is something I ahve always struggled with, especially for ships and planets. Hopefully the new tools will be of some assistance as they were for you. I am also curious to see what DXT compression and Alpha channel settings you are using. Some use DTX5 compression, while others use DTX3 compression. I am looking forward to the wrath of the Xin, and the new univer

Teal, Glad you liked your fight against the Rogues, and you eventually beating them. The Rogues and the new pirates add a whole new element to the game, where any of your frigates or structures can be "siezed" by the pirates or Rogues, and then used against you. Using your own computer control (through research and the LRM frigate) is the perfect counter, or can be used as an offensive weapon of your own. Game mechanics like this will be changing slightly in 2.0, b

Major Stress, Just thought I should add my two cents, and try to convince you to stay with your quest. I also have to live with the hardcodes as you know, and the ship movement thing is the worst. For example, my resurrection of the Star Control games calls for contant, dynamic motion. This is not done in Sins. But, since it is the best game engine for space type games out there, I am willing to live with it. Now, to let you know what I have accomplis

It would an honor and my pleasure to keep your mod going in your absence, at least until the day that the developers can hopefully write in the game enginge coding that will allow things like ship movement to be modded.

Wow, Looks like I have the pleasure and the honor of posting the 2000th post here in the 7DS forum. Just to clear the air, if Sins of a Solar Empire 2 come out, trust that I will make a mod for it and bring 7 DEADLY SINS to that game as well. As far as a name goes, that is left up to discussion, although it may just keep the same name for recognition purposes. LostWLD ran into some problems with his hardware, so he needs to redo everything from scratch. A

Master of Orion will be making more of an appearance in 2.0, as the Atlantians and the Orions from MOO are the same race in 7DS. Also, things like the Stellar converter, the Black Hole generator, and High-Energy Focus will be in version 2.0. The races will come soon as well. Trouble is with MOO, you could get different ship stlyes depending on what color you chose, so I will have to make my own stlye ships for each race. Also, more Star Control races will be in 3.0 a
