Peculiar Planets Mod for Weird Worlds
Remember a long time ago when I announced I was making a mod called Peculiar Planets? Probably not. Well, I got bogged down in lots of different things so nothing much happened. Finally, however, the mod is nearly complete and should be released within three weeks. It includes over 10 new races each with their own star fleets, new spaceships for the already existing races, lots of new events/mini-quests along the way and a major graphics overhaul. I'm planning on making it even cooler over the coming few weeks, including adding elements from my favorite sci-fi material), and touch up a few things. The mod will likely still be a bit 'messy' when it's released, so another version will come out a while later. I'll post here when it's complete.

Sounds very impressive; can't wait to see it!

Re: Peculiar Planets Mod for Weird Worlds
10 new races? Wow. Really looking forward to this.

Re: Peculiar Planets Mod for Weird Worlds
That's sounds you're putting in a lots of work... Can't wait to try it!

Re: Peculiar Planets Mod for Weird Worlds
Bring it on.................

Re: Peculiar Planets Mod for Weird Worlds
Oh, another thing... as Peculiar Planets nears the end of its development, does anyone have any suggestions for more content in the mod? Anything you'd like to see in it? Ideas you planned for your own mod but never got time to implement but would still like to see it somewhere? Well, I'm open to all this, and I'll try to add any suggested content into the mod as soon as possible.

Re: Peculiar Planets Mod for Weird Worlds
How about a used or non-functioning Horloge of Primordius, for non-Prim-quest maps?

Re: Peculiar Planets Mod for Weird Worlds

|
Re: Peculiar Planets Mod for Weird Worlds
Once upon a time I asked somewhere if it is possible / the game engine is capable for doing something like jumping from one mod to the another. Imagine a quest eg a "Super Massive Black Hole" quest (Muse, jeah!) where if you find it and enter you would end up in a different Universe (see:mod)

Re: Peculiar Planets Mod for Weird Worlds
That seemed to work, chabex. :p ;)
Thanks for the enthusiasm... Coming soon! :D |
Re: Peculiar Planets Mod for Weird Worlds
Still trying to perfect those last few items?
If you want, you can always do it like me, make a to-do list, release the existing mod (with the offending items reverted or removed), and then say that you'll probably make an update, sometime...and then get around to it six months later after you've forgotten how to make elaborate WW code. |
Re: Peculiar Planets Mod for Weird Worlds
Seriously, though, it might not be a bad idea to cut out a few of the more problematic things and release what you have now. Variations in Friendliness was a feature I really wanted to have in my mod, Odd Adventures, but I managed to mess it up to the point where I couldn't reproduce it, so instead of wasting a lot of time trying to figure it out, I just released the mod that I had and figured I'd try to redo it later. I know that you have a lot of great ideas, but it's not always convenient or possible to fit 'em all in at once -- you can start out with the stuff that is good, and figure out how to integrate the other stuff you want in a new release, later on.

I guess a 10 race mod was a lil' ambitious for a first time go around huh?
Feel free to post 'work in progress' as ExplorerBob suggested, i'm sure the community here will help out :shake: :typing: Use the 'Dark Force' Vader! |
Re: Peculiar Planets Mod for Weird Worlds
Well, there were no problems with the mod, just I have been CRAZY busy over the last few weeks so got no chance to do much of anything with it in that final touching up.
But I am pleased to announce that this mod is 99.9999% likely to come out next week, perhaps on Monday! :D I'll post a new thread for it when Version 0.5 is done. :) |
Re: Peculiar Planets Mod for Weird Worlds
Alright, Peculiar Planets is coming out on Monday, July 19, 2010! :D
Sorry to all those I have kept waiting. I hope Version 0.5 is worth the wait. :) |

Re: Peculiar Planets Mod for Weird Worlds
I'll start the countdown clock.
I'm looking forward to having a new mod to play, so ten new races sounds pretty good... and hey, you've gotten further than any of my own mod-making projects ever did. |
