DaveMan MOD Version 1.0

all somebody has to do is figure out the weapon family numbers for the nano-weapons and make a AI_designcreation.txt file for the nano-race

and voila...

that helped my organic manipulation race the BRachyura (they weren't using it until that got "fixed")

DaveMan, you may want to consider making the Nanotechnology racial advantage worth, say 5000, 6000 or even 7000 points. That way a player has to start with 5000 racial points and still decrease his 'characteristics' at game setup.

The nanotechnology racial advantage is cool, and appears to be VERY powerful. You don't want to make it too easy to get without having to give up something.

I've thought of that Kimball, and I think I should make 5000 racial points.

I think I'll change it in the next Version with the new AI construction files.

I have a question, have any of you played a whole game with Version 1.27 and the MOD? And how did the AI react to you? Because I've only took the time to make the MOD work with 1.27 and played a short full tech game, didn't get time to find the AI in a 250 system quadrant though.

And Raynor, I have played my MOD many time (Man it's fun kicking the AI's a..),
and all the components and facilities work well, exept the "OMEGA Reactor", that doesn't really work the way I wanted it to.

Thanks Daveman for the fun Mod. I really enjoyed your first mod where you gave the external missile mounts and the great choices of new ship sizes.Then about two weeks ago a fellow named devnull took your mod and put together the 1.60 mod of our mod pros and alot of other mods and made the devnull mod which I could play forever. If you know this fellow tell him thanks and I hope he will say that we can use this mod with your new cool nano mod with the new patch. Thanks to all you modders for your skill and your SHARING of them

Heh. except it was my mod with the external missile mounts and wide variety of ship size choices. Also known as DavesMods11.zip. The confusion arises because even though my screen name is Derek, I use my real name Dave, to name my mods. In the future, I won't do this, instead using Dereksmods.zip.

Oh well. Of course, I don't mind sharing, or I wouldn't have posted them here in the first place.

Enjoy!

Derek. i posted a bug in devnull's compilation mod whereby Terran Capitol ships were only equiping and using small external fighter missiles (no they are not anti-fighter missiles) i was wondering was this present in your mod or something that was altered in the great mod mix. Just asking cause i really like your mod and devnull said an update was being worked on, but so far no news of it.

Hmmm, interesting. I never noticed that in any of the games I played.

The small external fighter missiles were supposed to only be mounted on fighters. Regular fighter missiles were meant to be mounted on any ships and to be used against fighters (and satellites, coincidentally)

Anyways, I should be working on an updated Version of my mod, compatible with v1.27b, this weekend. I'll post here when it is released.
