Yes you can...there is a scaling option in the mesh file...check out Soviet911's tutorial for the complete explaination...(near the bottom) Hmm...Also, I guess its just me, but I'm not one to hunt through 80 replies, just to see what ones aren't answered yet. In my mind, if I haven't read it, and the last person to reply wasn't Aractain or Kitkun, its probably not answered yet...(with the exception of you Annatar) Also, I believe that if one wanted to have all the common thin

Nevermind...I figured out the problem...there was another dll, but I've got it working now...Thanks for the help.

Well, I moved it around, and it still has the same result... One thing that may be the problem is: being read only...If this is it, you'll have to tell me how to change it...

Reply to Need Mod Help? in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Erhemm...Umm while this is a thread with good intentions, I don't think its neccessary. Anyone that needs help can just make their own thread, or PM me (so long as its NOT texturing) for help. In forums I have been involved in in the past, these threads also exist, but due to stricter rulings, are deleted on sight. I have nothing wrong with this threads intention, but we have an entire forum, so I don't think this adds anything...so yah, I suggest that we stop using this thread and use the fo

Well, that one downloaded correctly, but now (just like before) it just says "Particle Forge has encountered an error and needs to close. Click here to send the error report..."

Thats fine..I'll need to figure out why I can't show these darn ships so that they can be build in-game...Overall this is turning out really good, and now that I'm back, I can see the images and they are awesome!

.NET Framework, not compatible? in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Essentially the title... I hear that the reason that particle forge does not work is that it does not have .NET 2.0, well when I tried downloading it, it simply said it was not compatible with the current version...so umm what now??

Nice job Frostmage...This is cool, not because these are cool ships, but because these are the overlooked ships that make it possible to win...

Reply to [MOD] Galactic Overhaul in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Twin Planets?? No seriously, that is what I mean...make two seperate spheres in XSI and then apply your insanely awsome textures to them...These "planets" would have larger gravity wells and would be essentially those two planets in one...they would have higher upgrade levels for all things, so they would be pretty contested... Also, like was said earlier, make more Gas Giant textures, as is, just one is kinda blan...I mean in our SS, we have a yellow, red, blue, and greenish blue...<b

Reply to PLEASE HELP! entity files are scrambled words and wingdings. in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Right, those files contain everything you need (almost anyways) to mod... Honestly, if that doesn't work, something is wrong... Also, if reading the mod by Silentshade, that mod is [B][U]REALLY[/U][/B] outdated, so don't go by it...he hasn't even been on since February...

Reply to Adding new classes of strikecraft? in Sins Modding Sins Forums

I did it for my "Olympus Mod" Its actually quite simple. There are two entities that you need... You need the ones like squadTECHcombat, and the ones fighterTECHcombat Combat is fighter, bomber is well..bomber :p Squad files are the basis of how the squad acts, things like, how do they attack, what do they attack, how many are in a squad... Fighter files are about the stats. These are the things that you may want to look at...the ST's are just like other ships in

This is great. All I can say is, Kryo, come pin this! Anyways, the mod has one thing I prefer it did not... bad grammer... I hate to be the English teacher here, but I'm obsessive compulsive, so every typo bugs me...If it is alright with you, I would like to go through it and fix the typos as well as adding an index and some hyperlinks so that someone can just skip to the section they want... Oh, and ermm... who do you have as your background?.?.?... :NOTSURE:

No there is a universal one, hence why you can hit + and double the game speed. You can also change the speed of the game befor you go in so obviously there is some univeral quality.

not exactly... when converting it into mesh, you can choose what you want it to be... Also, the entity file simply talks about what weapons deal what damage. The location is in the mesh...

Well, if no one else helps, PM Soviet911v2, he's great at that sort of thing, in fact that is what he is doing in my mod...I'd help, but ermm umm...I don't know either, hence why Soviet is doing the texturing...

Sure I will do that. Also, I did what you said in the PM, and it works, and looks absolutely awesome!! Yah, there will be certain things that will drain the ships, Prime Cannon, and Prominence will both immobolize the ships for a while... Also, this may be the last time I'm on for a few days, so yah..I'll get on if I can...

Reply to systems determination of firing arcs in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Yah, in XSI, you want to put "nulls" into the object. These are points that take up no space, they are just a reference location. They are under create new primitive. It looks like a star... Also, thank you Aractain. The turrets are missile by the way, so they might not hit itself...and they are also up on a pronounced tower, so they should not be much of a problem...

systems determination of firing arcs in Sins Modding Sins Forums

essentially what the title says. How does the computer determine if a cannon is forward, rear, left, or right facing. I understand the concept of firing arcs in general, but I am just asking. the reason is that in my mod (Olympus Class) features a ship with forward facing cannons, but they are towards the rear of the ship. is there something about it in the mesh? or is it somewhere else?

Reply to Olympus Class Mod in Sins Modding Sins Forums

I got the PM, I think I know why it wasn't working now, also I would say that I have made an accomplishment... All abilities for the Trinity Blade are now coded. These abilities are (after several changes): Glory: similar to power surge Return Fire: similar to vengeance Thor Torpedoes: combination of radiation bomb and ion bolt, can target planet Prime Cannon: insanely powerful WMD. cannot attack planet, but it deals around 18000 damage (hence why you can't attack plan

Oh and soviet, two things: 1. Those screenshots above look awesome, you're doing a wonderful job on them. 2. In the mesh you sent me, it did not show up with the texture. The star showed up, but the texture didn't...Also,maybe you can fix this, but the star, if you zoom in really far, looks REALLY REALLY pixelated..I don't know how easy it would be to fix, but if you could...

Reply to Olympus Class Mod in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Well, we don't really know...Soviet looks like he is going to be the graphic designer, and I'll be the programmer...Soviet is getting the hang of textures, while I am also nearly done with the coding for both the judgement and the TB. There are just a few things that impede my further advancement, and the main one is the limit of capital ships...I will try to work around that, but it will likely not be fully done until the 1.1 patch is in an actual release, not the beta. I would plan to do the
