Star Wars mod again

[Intimidator]

I am working it out right now, and I think that I can do it.

But am going on vacation in a few days, so I want to wait with the forum-discussion about my mod until I'm back (so please be patient for more info)

(but mod release is planned in 5 weeks)

Inti,

i would but my skills just dont lie in this area...man i forgot what skills i have. the most i can pull off is making what i do have tech wise work...i think. mainly compairing old SE IV tech vs SWII tech facilities/components that have similar effects.

question, only the Empire seems to work completly. the Alliance and the others dont have the Colony hull nor are they able to work around the problem. how do i add that hull type to the other empires? and the empire folders in the Empire directory..what app do i use to open them?

i dont get it, ive dug through the mod and i cant find where the beginning hull types are for the different empires. only the Empire empire has the Colony ship hull and its really hosin up my solo gaming!

Try Data/VehicleSize.txt under the star wars mod directory.

All shipsizes should be in there

Are you volunteering?

No, I AM !!!!!!! actualy, I'm working on it for some time now. After my holiday, (which starts in 2 days ) I will make some Posts about it......

But my first goal is to create an SW-universe aproximate 2 years before 'A New Hope'........

Some ideas already worked out:

- Hero Trait
- Death Star shielding penetrable by fighters (A NEW HOPE)
- Alliance and Mon Calamari will be separate races with own shipsets !!

INTI,

The only problem with that is that the Death Star would probably look like the Death Star II at that point in time. I never read how long it took to build the original, but I'm sure it took a few years. So unless the original Death Star has functioning shields, it might need to be shielded from an outside source like they did with the second one. But then again, the Rebels couldn't penetrate that shield like they could the original one. Sounds interesting. Can't wait to play it.

Isnt the external shield only required because the thing isn't finished construction, and thus has only partial to no coverage from its own generators?
If it wasn't shielded all around, it would be an easy target for small suicide runs.

You are right SJ,

That is exactly what happened as soon the Endor generator was destroyed

That's not a bug, it's a feature.
Imperials have an advantage with cheaper colony ships and modules while rebels can't colonize until they get big enough hulls. This is supposed to represent the starting difference between the Empire and the Rebellion.
And Outlaws, of course are pirate-like and don't have colonization capacity of their own.
