Re: Space Empires IV: AI Races/Ship Sets

Well, here goes nothing.

Here is the current (6Feb2003) Version of the Monsters vs Galactic Patrol Mod:

1044560754.zip

This mod is based on DevNull v1.70.

There are 2 main changes:

Monsters have been enhanced and given the ability to colonize.
A Galactic Patrol race has been parially created.

Both Galactic Patrol and Monster races are unbalanced and extremely overpowered. Empire files are provided for 2000 and 3000 point opponents.
It is playable in 3 different styles:

Single Player Terra-Uber-Alles: Gameplay is "Two giants battling it out in a universe of pygmies. The player 'Adds existing' the Galactic Patrol. The human will control the GP. You should also add the Monsters and 'Edit' the Monsters to be: Controlled by Computer & Using Style from race. You can also add as many AI opponents as desired.
Multi-Player Hang Together: A small number (3 to 4) of normal human players attempt to pull down the Monsters. Additional AI opponents should not be needed.
Multi-player Eddore vs Arisa: The game host plays the GP. Other players use their favorite races. Add the Monsters and other AI's as desired. The game host intervenes as needed to balance game play and enhance story-telling.

This mod is still being improved. Things I need to do include:

Create 5000 point Empire files.
Find some images for the GP race. Currently I use the Terran images.
Create custom AI to utilize the GP advantages.
Balance the gameplay. I hope for 'fun' + 'hard' + 'doable'.
Smooth out the Monsters growth stages.

I would be gratefull for any comments or suggestions for improvement. Just remember, I am still pretty clueless on how to mod the AI's.
GP players will find the unbalancing advantages at the end of the various research tree's.

Re: Space Empires IV: AI Races/Ship Sets

For those of you that would much rather have a Zip file of TDM 3.30 instead of an exe installer, I have decided to upload one for you. If you do not know how to use a Zip file, DO NOT download this. Get the installer Mephisto has uploaded.

The contents of this file are exactly the same as those of the installer. For some strange reason, this file is a bit larger than the exe, but whatever. Here it is:

TDM-Modpack.zip -- 10,477 KB
TDM-Modpack.rar -- 9,641 KB -- requires Winrar or Unrar. WILL NOT OPEN IN WINZIP

Mephisto, RAR files compress to about the same size your installer is. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif Too bad people are hooked on ZIP and can't learn better methods. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: Space Empires IV: AI Races/Ship Sets

New races Image replacement mod.

This mod replaces all 20 stock and 6 neutral races images. No ships are replaced, and no AI files. I may release a revision at some point with modified AI files just to change the bio descriptions so they match the pictures better. I tried to use ones that came close. And I tried usign ones that were consistant in quality and texture and whose coloring fit their shipset.

Put it all in a zip with the folder structure suitable for use as a mod.

GET IT HERE.

I am not the artist of any of these. I don't know who is. I cannot give you permission to use them for any purpose, so don't bother asking me for it.

Borg Variant 1.78j

In this update I have again focussed on the DesignCreation and Research files of my AI, but, have also done some tweaking on the AI_Construction_Vehicles file in order to further enhance expansion and benefits from Mine technology.

DesignCreation.txt:
I have increased the number of ship types so that weapons payload is optimised.

Research.txt:
The Research tree has been tweaked in the early stages of the game a little (Missile 3 deleted and Combat Sensors and ECM advanced a bit).

AI_Construction_Vehicles.txt:
Coloniser construction increased slightly and Mines and Minelayers advanced in the queues a bit to ensure their use.

TechArea.txt and Components.txt files:
The Borg require the included TechArea.txt and Components.txt files to be placed into your data directory, or alternately, for the Borg Technology entry (in the TechArea file) and the various Borg components (in the Components file) to be copied into your existing files.

Hope you enjoy!

God Emperor

Note: The other races that I have done AI's for are in the latest Version of modpack and have been extensively revised too.
