Kreyson, No problem. I want to make sure that each of these modders get credit for their great work. They are the ones that have inspired me to get into modding, and to create this mod to display all of our works. I will work on that right away. You will then be able to link over to their forums to see their works in action. Then you will be able to grasp the scope of this mod, to bring it all together. Thanks for the post. DANMAN

Styr, As my first custom race, it will have both Vasari and Advent ships and technology. I'm not that deep into 3D modeling yet, but I can do texturing. But don't worry, the 3D modeling is right around the corner. I need that for my plans with Master of Orion and Star Control ships. The Atlantian ships are balanced however, as they cost more in resources as well as fleet supply. They also take 3 times as long to build. This doesn't apply to just capital ships, but to EVERY thin

I realized the Dreadnaught ship photos didn't work.

Here are some screen shots of my new Neutron Star. It's not perfect yet, but it will be. I intend on giving it some different abilites to affect ships near it other than the traditional star: [img]http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh126/danman3712/ScreenShot_26copy.jpg[/img] [img]http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh126/danman3712/ScreenShot_25copy.jpg[/img] I have to fix the corona color, and the far away picture, but that will be soon.

ManSh00ter, I've been away from your posting for awhile, and the newest stuff looks hot!!! No problem with helping me out, I totally understand what I want to do is quite over the top. I would need the help of several modders, which I hope to get, including your support. In fact, when your mod is done, I would like to incorpoarate it into my mod, along with Uzii's and Bailknight's. I am working on kind of a Super Mod, with the best mods all combined together, including the mod I

Diresaint, Go to the downloads section, and in the section of the Mod tools, there are links. One of these takes you to the two huge PDF's, where Ironclad walks us though using XSI. It is REALLY helpful. DANMAN

Blair, This is awesome that you wan to hear from us. I agree with Uzii and finding those dumps so we can see exactly what cuased the error. A changed log from you guys would be great, as well as having stuff up front before or when the update comes out. Also, as you and I have spoken, getting the original XSI files would be great, then we wouldn't have to convert the MESH folders in a $3500 3DMAX program in order to make variations of the original ships, which is what a lo

Uzii, I checked out the pics, and they look great. Those derlict ships really look dead. I can't wait to see the need update when you post. Deckard666, I could use the .obj is Uzii doesn't need it. I have been working on a "broken" planet mod. Feel free to contact me. DANMAN

That is why we need Ironclad to give the ok or the original files, and once this happens. I'm sure the mod community will explode with new mods, especially once the particle editor comes out along with the completed forge tools. DANMAN

Blair, Thank you! I know you guys are probalby worried about copyright laws and people ripping off your work, but we in th modding community only have the game and the gamers interests at heart, plus its not like we are going to make money off the mods, they're all free. Thank you very much for the XSI instruction, and thank you for starting a dicsussion about releasing the source XSI files. With your instruction, plus those files, we modders could create tons of new content for the game,

Blair, I just read through the PDF's, and thank you. Thank you for giving a tutorial on how to use the Soft Image XSI software! Now I can make my own models from scratch. However, is there any way I can use the original ship MESH files as a starting point. I tried to us XSI to open the MESH files, but they don't reconize them. Any more help would be greatly appreciated. You guys are the best! DANMAN

Blair, First off, thank you for elping to bring about one of the best space strategy games of all time. I am a hard core MOO2 and 3, Star Control, and Master of Orion gamer and fan, and this game brings all those joys into one great package. Now on to your post, does this PDF how to convert the MESH files into XSI format too? I want to be able to use your awesome ships as a base. The modding community is screaming for "updated" versions of the current ships, and that is what I

Diresaint, Thank you very much for the instruction. This is VERY helpful. Unfortunatley I am trying to do the reverse, convert the MESH files into XSI so that I can edit the original ship files. I want to use the original ships as a starting point, and come up with modified versions first, then move on to brand new models. If you now how to do this, or anyone who does, please post! Thank you for your help!!! DANMAN

Pnakotus: I love your ideas. I plan to use Uzii's new planets mod to increase the different planet types ad bonuses, and Bailknight's graphical mod to change up the graphics. I plan to make "races" out of the different factions, and obviously some Star Control races will be left out. Some fanfiction ships might be made, btu again, all up to time and skill in modeling. I would love it of Bailknight, Uzii and ManShooter can join me n this endeavor, as there mods are awesome and game changi

Busy22: You are right, but it was the point of enemy of friendly that I was trying to get across. You have to love the Ilwrath and their twin gods Dogar and Kazon. Love it.

rantzzz1998, Ah... the Stellar Converter. This made all those Death Star dreams come true. The weapon in question I believe was the plasma cannon, able to envelope and take down all 4 sheilds, allowing a nice hit from the neutron blaster or death ray before sending in the marines...good times. The Chmmr was the thing that looked like an Xwing with satellites, and the Kohr-Ah Maruader was the uber black death ship with the spinning blades and the super f.r.i.e.d. weapon. (Fiery Rin

Saikou: Yes, the Alterans were more of a peace-loving race, and only attacked when provoked, in which they would wipe out all in their path. The Atlantians that I am designing actually fullfill this role, so your interests are at heart. With this race, it will take the player an increadible long time to amass a fleet, due to EVERYTHING costing triple in order to balance the system. So you would have to be peaceful, until you have the power to decimate the race that ticks you off later on.
