Newest Cylons are here
 

developing for the gold.
SO if you do not have the gold yet, you will get errors if you use this.

Cylons.zip

The speech file is not quite finished.
I have not created the emp files yet.
I have not created the ship names file yet.
You add them manually or edit the settings file to add them to the quick pick.
Try them at 2000, 3000, and 5000

To use them fully please use this file in your data folder. If you do not want to see the full ship set then do not use the file and the default Cylons ships will be used.

VechicleSize.txt

Let me know how they are doing.

Sending back to the top, for those of you who want them

Re: Newest Cylons are here
 

Thanks. =)

Re: Newest Cylons are here
 

A little sad that no one has tryed this yet.

ANyway,
Here is the latest ver. The zip contains the ship name file and the vechiclesizes file. Please place them in the correct folders.
I have also included the emp files for 2000, 3000,5000

I am still working the speech file, but have include what I have done so far.
The ship name file is interesting in that I felt that the cylons would most likely name their ships after the systems they vist.

Don't be sad. I downloaded them and plan on using as soon as I can get the TDM mod to work.

Re: Newest Cylons are here
 

Excellent work (as usual)!! I missed the repost somehow - but been pretty busy trying to get all the weapons done for the B5Mod, ah well...

I'll give them a go this week if I get a chance - otherwise they will have to wait until I get back from my trip.

Did you hear that the Battle Star movie may be held up or cancelled? From what I hear the new Cylons are REALLY cool looking!!!

Re: Newest Cylons are here
 

Val,
I did have not hear about the movie yet. where did you read that at?
Oh and thanks, let me know how they work out so that I can make the next changes.

Re: Newest Cylons are here
 

I haven't met them yet in the current game, though in the Last one I wish they used more fighters (memories of massive cylon wings of fighters).

I heard about the movie at least a dozen or so times at various sci-fi sites and mags. Last place I read something was in the "Babcom" internet Babylon 5 Wars magazine - I think it was in one of the Last two issues - they had a short article on it. Do a web search for " +"Babcom" +"Babylon 5 Wars" +"Issue" " and you should find it.

Re: Newest Cylons are here
 

More fighters, hmm.
I'll get to work on it.

Re: Newest Cylons are here
 

Can't wait to see it http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Also, the website to get that E*Mag is:

Babcom

It is in the November 2001 issue.

Thanks! I will give them a shot when I get home http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: Newest Cylons are here
 

Moving to the top for those of you who still want these.

Re: Newest Cylons are here
 

Val,
Here is the latest. I played against them with the following settings and they were able to hold 2-3 place for 50 turns in my game.
I was using low and no bonus.

Kewl.

Re: Newest Cylons are here
 

So any feedback?

Re: Newest Cylons are here
 

Just got home from sunny Florida late Last night and been playing catchup at work all day (not to mention some wonderful training that took place to further chew up my time). I probably won't have a real chance to play until this weekend, but I will let you know how they do http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: Newest Cylons are here
 

I am working on the next release. IF there is any changes you all think they need let me know.
Thanks

Re: Newest Cylons are here
 

I have yet to run into them!

Re: Newest Cylons are here
 

"The Imperious Leader has rejected your proposal."

..and with those 7 words the Cylons decended on my outlying colonies! I lost 2 systems to them before halting them at my starship production system. (They had a good number of carriers, but I would love to see a few more fighters! Maybe make a few of their attack ships require fighter bays http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif I really have to get out of the SE IV classic mindset and start using those infernal drones.) The Cylons are quite dedicated to killing anything that comes near them. The Praetorian's are on my other border and ripping into my fragmented empire. I don't think I'm going to be in this for much longer, but maybe I can lure the Cylons towards the Praetorians... it's worth a try.

I was still waiting to hear (or read) a comment with "by your command" http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Re: Newest Cylons are here
 

More fighters would be nice, but anymore, and the game will begin to lock up as it did with the Star Wars sets. Too many fighters = RCE's. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif

Nice set though. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif Nice work. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif
