Reply to Maelstrom Mod problem in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Modders can't read minidump files. If you verified the game with Steam after applying the 4 gb patch, Steam reverted the 4 gb patch. Without properly applying this patch, I'm guessing Maelstrom's hitting the 2 gb limit after an hour or so.

Reply to [Feedback/Request] On Map Version 4 and the aspect of "Chance" in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

Apparently, as was learned some time ago, putting in -1 is equivalent to a wild card symbol. However, to my knowledge, this has not been used in vanilla Sins at all.

Perhaps what could be done is go with ApplyBuffToTargetsInDirectionalCone and amount of targets set to 1, with an ApplyBuffToFirstSpawnerNoFilterNoRange to do an ApplyBuffToLastSpawner WithTravel NoFilterNoRange with the missile effect and damage?

I understand that, however I don't see the mechanics of the mod being broken, most certainly not to the extent that you feel they are. You have not given good reasoning for why things are broken; your arguments come down to comparisons to vanilla Sins or personal opinions. Further, other than the capital ship levels and the large militias, you're the first person to take issue with the three other points in your post. The Droid Control Signal is a unique command ability, and o

Sins of a Galactic Empire is a total conversion; if you are going to play the mod, you must discard all prior notions and experiences of ship combat based off of vanilla Sins. If you assume, or expect, ship combat to resemble the base mechanics, than this is not the mod for you. If you want a Star Wars mod that keeps most of the Sins mechanics, Interregnum is a great choice. I'll address your points one by one. Shields:

Reply to Looking for partner to play Sins of a Galactic Empire multiplayer in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

I'm glad you're enjoying SoGE, Sinkillr. It's primarily balanced towards MP, by taking into account how humans play and act, with some side work having been put aside to make the AI not absolutely garbage. That being said, have you tried simply making a game on ICO and hope people pop in? That might work. Otherwise, maybe you can go through this page and find some interested people .

While this work is appreciated, the Extremely Reduced Weapon Ranges addon reduces all weapon ranges by 67.5%, effectively achieving the same effect. I'll change it to 70% for the next release.

I'd say Goa or psychoak. Goa has knowledge of virtually all aspects of Sins, while psy's buff coding skills are legendary. Notable mention goes out to Zombie, who like Goa knows tons about Sins, and he also models.

Reply to SOASE 3dsmax importer and exporter tool - Updated for Rebellion in Sins Modding Sins Forums

I run the tool with 3ds Max 2014; I can use it to import models with multiple materials without issue. That being said, I've noticed that the importer messes up models at times, by either screwing up the UV map, or even by mirroring the model along some arbitrary part of it. Other times, I've seen parts of a model, such as two engine sections of a model both be slightly moved along the horizontal axis for no reason at all.

Alternatively, if the tech method is borked, you can make a passive ability that makes ships invulnerable to shield bypass. This might even be the better way to go, so that weaker ships such as scouts, would be partially or fully vulnerable to shield bypass.
