Vandron Shipset - Page 9

I noticed that there seems to be a problem with the race portraits in the ship set. The pop_mini seems to be sized as the pop_portrait should be, and the pop_portrait seems to be missing. (Assuming I have the correct Version.) You might want to check and make sure those are set properly.

yeah andres lescano sp? caught that a while back i fixed it a while ago, but don't download the latest Version yet cause i am redoing some of the minis and angles on some of the bases and carrier. I'll post that when its done as the latest Version

for a peek at the fleet without having to download them head on over to USY and check out the under construction section. As i stated in the Last post though, i'm updating some of the pics and most all of the minis

and if anyone has any more thoughts or suggestions i'm all ears

After the annihilation of their third most populated world, and the discovery and destruction of their main research base by the Vandron, the Hevordah amass a retaliatory fleet of their own. They never thought the Vandron would have the means to inflict that much damage on them, but now the Hevordah feel it is time for payback. One dreadnaught is not enough.....

Sorry to triple post here but i just finished this pic and I think its great. I did the background myself ("starbits" thanks zircher) and as you can see have the makings for the next fleet. I'm real interested to see what you think.

Heh, the Hevordah seem a little peeved. BTW, glad to help. :-)

well i posted the vandron v1.6 in the mods section. It has a beta AI and an emp file for 5k i redid some stuff in the shipset as well. In all my games that i've play tested them they've always been in the top three after 200 or so turns. So check em out.

Aaacccckkk! I was too slow.

Here is an updated AI that is working quite well up through BC size ships, at least. It includes .emp files for 2K, 3K and 5K, and a design names file.

I would consider this AI a valid release AI, albeit a 1.0 Version, so I'm sure it will need updates after we get feedback.

Edit: I guess including the file would be a good idea.

must have posted right after me. No prob i updated the download in the races directory to include the new AI. So try it out and tell us what you think.

chewy027 · #89 October 22nd, 2001, 04:16 AM

anyone play against them yet? How do they stand up? I been in a game with em now for about 500 turns and there pretty tough.

Alpha any more progress with the AI? I have the speech just about finished, but i'll wait for the latest AI to update them.
