Re: B5 MOD General

b5grumbler@gmail.com will do as my email address. I am glad you are looking at the General_Readme.txt. I will see if I can come up with some descriptive text.

Re: B5 MOD General

Well, "cockpit' is a game concept. you want to include it because the "leaky armors" can allow the control system of fighters to be hit that way. What it really is is a receiver for the Vorlons...

Okay, you just have an early/ bad version of the vehiclesize.dat file. I am uploading the whole thing (probably not tonight, I have to work tomorrow but then tomorrow night) and that should fix the...

Re: B5 MOD General

Yes, it is somewhat like the Proportions Mod in that developing your space empire takes many turns.

On the plus side, each turn does not take long because you don't have lots of decisions!

And...

Re: B5 MOD General

The unique patrol ship has always worked for me exactly as designed (i.e. with built-in LS and CC), just as have the Unique Scout and the Unique Fast Courier. Do the latter two work correctly for...

Re: B5 MOD General

Raiders are not a working race yet. They will not have any tech and very few facilities and components, as they are not a B5 standard race.

Re: B5 MOD General

Ship yards have been subsumed into colony hubs. Your real ship construction will be in orbital yards - the colony hubs just give you the ability to construct in space.

Yeah, there may still be a few places where Antimatter is spelled AntiMatter (capitalization DOES count). I thought I had found all of the instances, but it may be occurring in a race I have not...

Re: B5 MOD General

Try creating a subfolder called "new" under "sounds" and copy (not move) all the sound files to it. Let me know if sounds work then.

You do not need supply depots - they are part of the colony hub.

Re: B5 MOD General

I have been busy with the end of the school year, but will do that this weekend. I still do not have the Ancients working exactly right but can send a clean copy of everything else.

Re: B5 MOD General

Really? I dropped the "manufacturing" tech and left in engineering and physics, so you should have just armor size and number (heavy 0, light 4, etc).

I downloaded everything over again and that...

Mottlee,

I definately want to hear about things like research that leads nowhere (which I can "make invisible" without deleting it pending someone else's contribution that uses it). Some changes...

Re: B5 MOD General

Tim, things are going well as the school year winds down. All I need now is some playtest feedback on the mod, and I am ready to wrap it up (pending whatever you want to do).

Re: B5 MOD General

Well, my version assumes that you want to devote 30%, 40%, or 50% of the space on most ships to engines. Given that the rest of the command and control stuff generally takes about 10% of the hull...

Re: B5 MOD General

I understand what you are arguing, but my point is actually a bit different.

What I am saying is that one of the signature elements of this mod is precisely that it does away with the whole supply...

IF, it is a signature part of the mod that supplies are restored after each turn. I have not touche it for that very reason. It would take some justification to make any change, but that just means...

Re: B5 MOD General

Excellent point, IF. Make sure you start with one of the pre-existing empires and just modify it to get you to the race points you want. You must be a B5 Standard Race (none of the other racial...
