Re: mod idea - wierd worlds at war

It's possible to create removable fighter bays, so you can change what kind of fighters your carrier will launch. Fighter bays have their own type of "slot" so you won't be able to install anything...

Re: Why I won\'t be buying the game - detailed repo

In a way, yes and no. I like these games and it'd be cool to have one with all of our ideas in it. But what makes SAIS and by extension Weird Worlds special is that they're not clones of anything...

Re: Why I won\'t be buying the game - detailed repo

Well, we know that now but didn't then... In any case if MOO3 flopped after all that money and effort it makes the whole thing even riskier, and it doesn't help that any advances in technology...

Re: Why I won\'t be buying the game - detailed repo

Master of Orion is one of my favorite games of all time... I wasted countless hours playing it back in the day. And Rich (Ripcord O'Reilly on the forums) is a huge SC2 fan. When we originally started...

Re: Addicted... But...

Yes, it's possible to create battles in the simulator that are way bigger than any you'll see in the game itself and it'll be taxing to any system. We simply chose not to limit the simulator too much...

Re: Why I won\'t be buying the game - detailed repo

"The game felt alot like I was playing a single player board game like The game of Life, where you hop along the board and get random cards from the deck."

Thank you, this is exactly what we were...

Re: Love to hate This Game!

Everything can be changed http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

We're working on the modding website, though there isn't much there yet; see the post in "WW scenarios and mods"....

Re: Length of games.

The medium and large maps are two and three times the size of the small one (ie. the demo). Of course with the full game's mod support it's possible to create a mod with even more stars, but at some...

Re: 2 ships battle - mine destroyed, but I\'m ok!

Ripcord alone can't continue the game, as his ship is a one-person fighter.

Re: 2 ships battle - mine destroyed, but I\'m ok!

That's correct, you can continue the game as long as you have any capital ships left. They have plenty of room for a shipless captain... As a matter of fact you can assign any capital ship as the...

Re: Timeless Bauble changed...?

TaoLibra: certain items are unique, ie. there can only be one of them in the game at any one time. If that item is somewhere on the map then it can't be in Fomax's vault. This means that wishing for...

Re: Mod question

You can make basic scripts with conditions and user-defined variables... It's not a full programming language type affair so there are certain limits to what you can do.

For example, it's possible...

Re: A Few Questions

The late return penalty can't be "turned off", but it's easy to make a mod with a much longer time limit if you really want to.

Re: Bottom Scraping Minimum System?

I'm afraid you're out of luck with the video card in particular. WW has a bunch of OpenGL accelerated eyecandy in it that'll require at least 32M of video RAM.

Re: Sept 05?

Re: Oooh, Nifty.

Mod support will likely be done on a website or a forum (like right here) and it'll grow over time. There are way more things you can do in WW than in SAIS, so trying to cover it all at once in a...

Re: Remake or Sequel?

It's a sequel, as in it starts right where SAIS left off; at Glory system in 4590. It's the same universe so the races are the same and everything that was in SAIS also exists in Weird Worlds. But...

Re: DirectX or OpenGL?

It's somewhat likely that there'll be a Mac (OS X) version as well, but only after the Windows version is done. We've done this with our other games. The main difficulty with supporting different...

Re: DirectX or OpenGL?

Weird Worlds uses OpenGL for graphics, OpenAL for sound, SDL for everything else. There's no specific DirectX requirements, but OpenAL internally works through DirectSound3d in Windows and SDL uses...
