Mods, Modes and Some Ideas on Variable Items in Game... in Sins Modding Sins Forums

I've been modding almost 8 months now, and spent a little time on some of them, and lots of time on others, usually though i find myself reaching the end of a quick tweak and wanting to try something more ambitious. Problem is when i finish something long and involved i find myself wanting to have a quick game without all the extra things i just put in, in the way. Justin and EvilJedi put together some modes, different tactics, different maps, different goals, it sounded like just the

Version 1e is here, i added a new race and spawnable ships. :) take it for a spin and let me know. :) http://files.filefront.com/13940206 note: i noticed after zipping the mod and starting to play through a game, that the abilities on some of the spawned frigates are not accessible, my fault, i need to update the abilities as well, and the research for the mines, even if

Reply to Did Anyone See the Sword of the Stars Pack on Impulse? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

:) Sounds Very Cool!!! Let me know, I saw GalCiv II at the store, very nice price, i think it was DreadLords, $19.99, anyway, i wanted to get that AND SotS and i would have a time!! :) Impulse has SotS and i believe on the Sots website they list some of the retailers that have it as well, Now im looking at Demi-God, :) but that will have to wait a few weeks for the money. -Teal

[quote who="Holybeast" reply="4" id="2278590"]Hey can i ask if like the new races have new models and all for the mod[/quote] actually they dont, im not primarily a modler, so i re-use what is available, but i try to change the setup and stresses on each race to make them different than the others. The Infectors produce a lot of cheap but weak ships, a lot perhaps like the Zerg, and have two abilities predominately, the phase out hull and the volatile nanites.</

Updated link for the revision is here: I changed out the one above as well. I will have to put a disclaimer on the first one so that people know the pirates arent completely set without the research, but its fixed now. In addition i gave the NPC Pirates a full tech tree and Capitals and Starbase as well, and some resources on their Pirate base. :) haha, should make things pretty interesting. :) Try it out and let me know. -Teal

Reply to StarFire Mod v01b for Entrenchment 1.03 Ready! in Sins Modding Sins Forums

ahhhh... ty, i went back over it and updated with tec research and ships for those the pirates were missing. I have a b,c and d version done, and will post them to filefront probably tonight. Also included research for the in-game pirates which of course now means 'they' get starbases and capitals as well, haha, make things really hectic for players then. :) I'll post it asap and let me know what you think, thank you, -Teal

My Posts Are Gone!! Am I deleted? :( in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Hope its just you know... like maintenance or maybe i had too many and they got you know, donated to that big server waste bin in the sky. :( Anyway, i suppose that is what i get for being out of touch the last few months. -Teal

Did Anyone See the Sword of the Stars Pack on Impulse? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

they look pretty cool, you can customize ships, you can choose long or short games, there are moving parts in the ships, but there are some similarities to Sins and GalCiv, it looks like its a 4x game, or at least partly. Because it looked so cool I have been thinking of picking it up, but wanted to ask if other people had played it and what they thought. Thanks for the feedback and I will let you know if I get it, Take care, -Teal

StarFire Mod v01b for Entrenchment 1.03 Ready! in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Hi, Well school has had me pretty busy, but have had some time to sit down and start my Starfire mod, which was originally for vanilla sins moved over to Entrenchment. Not everything is here just yet. I have the new races: the Diplomats, The Infectors and the Traders and a Playable Pirates race. I have tweaked the new races to have different strengths than the original races, the diplomats rely heavily on culture and t

Reply to Is There A New GalaxyForge for 1.16 and Entrenchment 1.02 In Work? in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Try the ingame map editor, its less work than learning galaxyforge, and quick, it is just the map editor doesnt have as many fine tuned controls, i cant put certain races on certain planets, or give them x amount of ships. But galaxyforge does in fact do this, that is what makes learning it worth it. :) -Teal

:) It is ALWAYS worth a try... :) And who knows? I have had ideas i thought couldnt be pulled off, only to have it "somewhat work" when i turned the idea on its head, with suggestions from other modders that pointed me in the right direction, and more than a few ideas that people gave me that was the solution all by itself. The modding community here is wonderful!! Alot of good people, ask around, someone is bound to help you figure out a way to pull it o

:) lots of school work, haha, well... if i want to do well i have to put in the time, i have tried the "i'll just skate..." way, but did lousy in the class. It is a lot more work this way, but at least i know i will do well. :) Good to hear you too Shadow, have you tried the new updates yet? And what do you think?

Reply to Mod in progress, Galactic Sins in Sins Modding Sins Forums

the mesh "is" the planet. :) It might be possible to use something else in the well, that is then given another planet, or moon, or oversized asteroid, or asteroid mesh. But to be honest, unless the planet is huge, it will eat up a lot of space, meaning your ships and the enemies will be dodging large bodies in the well as they fight. Which might actually be a very cool thing. :) -Teal

Reply to TEC and Advent Starbases not as good as Vassari in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

:) There are mods that have amended how many starbases you can have in a well, some as many as 4, 5 and 6, but to be honest that is overkill, and makes the game too easy. But when i started i was really really lousy, haha, am still not too hot, but am getting better, but there was this mod that made ships half cost, and it was wonderful! :) At least for the first month, after that it was too easy and really not very fun, so i unplugged that mod and got one that was a

Reply to Ironclad's Future After Sins? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Well... just my two cents, but if IC did something NEW, like they did here in Sins, mixing RTS and 4X then we might expect something along the lines of... RPG/RTS? It would be cool to have cutscenes of your crew rushing about the ship preparing for battle, or running as a bulkhead blows in! :) A sandbox, with battle cutscenes doesnt have to be a campaign, and could keep the game open ended. One of the things i have come to really like about Sins, is no matter how

You All are Great!!!! Thank you for all the feedback!! :) I'm still trying to decide on laptop, which is more than my old desktop, or a quad desktop, the quad is more memory and less money, haha, but everyone in the house is on the computers when i get home, so was hoping for just one of my own, you know? Anyway, maybe not a good reason for a laptop, but thought i might get to use it more. :) Haha, fat chance, but the quad of course everyone would b
