Guess I've become an addict of your mod
. I am always looking forward to the latest updates of this.
So today I couldn't wait to give the 2.60 a try. Here's what I found:
- the new Omega looks good. But check out the firing arc view of it in the game. It overlaps the border of the circle.
- EA dialogue seems to be cut short (or a full stop is missing)
- Hooray, the Brakiri ships have arrived! This was one of the greatest additions, I believe! I just couldn't stand the Muktian/Brakiri hybrids any longer. Their cruiser seems a bit weak though.
- What's the use of the Apocalypse box? Does it have any?
- Nice: the enemy Primus Battlecruisers now launch fighters. But they are missing the fighter bay on the schematics during combat (not too much of a problem).
- the Narn Gorith ally is also great. Have they been using Drazi Railguns all the time?
- Tirk's beacon cannot be traded (e.g. when he's dead). Intended or just a bug?
- The scanner anomalies are really creative! At the first encounter nothing happened and then on the second the nasty Shadow scout took me by surprise!
BUGs:
- I encountered B4 (after a long time eventually) and this time it jumped during combat, just like a Zorg Fighter!
It was also armed like hell (which is no bug, I know)!
- Spelling: Micheal Garibaldi (in his second form) should be Michael
- Debriefing: when playing and finishing Omega missions, I got the following: "...put the XYZ to a test", where XYZ was the name of an allied ship long since dead.
- major bug: played Omega on large map, came to Earth and suddenly the End of Civil War event popped up. At that point I had not triggered any specific events or missions, and carried no specific items. The only special items I had were the Green Sash and I had dumped the Dust before (using no in the dialogue). The latter one might be the reason, as it probably affects EA fleets in some way.
Ideas:
- remove sound in the intro that is played when the planet is displayed.
- make some muzzle effects for the beam weapons (low priority)
- there's still the glass sound when you confirm something. Should be changed, imho.
Apart from that: Great, great, GREAT mod!
