ExMod 1.12has arived

[Abdiel]

I'm referring to either the Empire Name or the other...

Oh oops. I just checked, it's the Emperor Title. "Fuedal King" and "Fuedal Lord", should be "Feudal" rather

Whoo! Great to see you're working on the mod I only play mods with people still working on them, hehe. Bugs and massive imbalances ruin the game for me, even if I can take advantage of them... purist me

Ahhhh. Thanks.

I've got Adamant FQM so I'll just copy those over. Should work, I presume?

Yep.

But where to get generic_portrait_infantry.bmp?

Adamant has such a file in its Pictures\Race Generic folder. I believe it is different from the one in Proportions.

ok, exmod 1.06 is out =)

tell me whats wrong with it =P

[Abdiel]

Here goes nitpicking.

- Emperor Titles - Queen Augustus has a period after the name
- I notice only 4 race types available, I assume you're working on the rest
- Please update history in readme, makes our lives easier
- You might want to consider raising the cost of Infantry. On my HomeWorld on the first turn I can build 330 of them, I don't know if you think that's too high or too low, but for me it's just a little high, given they affect planet happiness as well... Perhaps make them slightly more powerful in damage resistance but at a significantly higher cost. Or raise the number of troops / happiness, but that's well... radical. WOOOOH! Happiness from Happy to Jubilant in 1 turn.
- Racial trait +2 movement points is a little overpowered. I see your engines generate .5 movements each, so were you thinking of 2 points = 1 real movement? At 1000 points that's one trait i'm always gonna take, great for all situations including combat =P
- Hmm on all AI options being strong, they spend their first turn on an escort, then 62 (!) satellites, just a little overkill? Perhaps you could tweak them to build less, and newer Versions more.
- typo: An unfortunate accident resulted in a plethora of radioactive "materails" being spread about the planet...
- typo: Our empire has "herd" rumors of an ancient alien city on this planet.
- ERrrr oh no. My new colony with 4M population has only 80 80 80 construction rate? 47.5 years to build a space port.
- Bug: On high technology, your homeworld colo tech starts at level 1, but the other techs are already at 3.
- Are there a lot of alien ruins, or is it just my imagination? on a medium map I'm counting no less than 50 (!).

Okay that's all for now. Need to get back to studying

And i'm looking forward to the next instalment!

Here I go...

-Empire name: "Army of steel". "Steel" would be a facelift Hope you don't mind this really small detail.
-Similarly, "Barren realms elite", "Biomenac biomenace", "Blank" (?), "Comander88's Space Dock" should be "Commander88", "Common knowledge", "Crystal caves", "Dueling starships", "Empire of darkness", "Endless horror", Fates of twinion", "Fire and ice", "Global domination", "Governmental control", "Knights of xentar", "Machine nation", "Metal marines", "Selkis lii(?)", "Speices 8472" should be "Species", "Star crusaders", "Stardef star defence", "Stellar conquest", "Techno freak"?. WOW! You added a lot of nice names!
-I suppose you mean "Elerian Elevators from hell" the way it is?
-"Elvis-n-Space" supposed to be "in"? "The Maquis" supposed to be The Marquis? or not.
- Emperor Title: "Judex Surpreme" should be "Supreme", "Regeant" should be "Regent", "Superintendant" should be "Superintendent".
- WHEW, facelifts part over!
- Hmmm Culture Modifiers have been changed to a range of -20 to +40. Wow. But it's your choice
- Racial Traits: Efficiency freaks. "Freaks". Advanced Storage and Tiny both give you 130% but Tiny, according to the description (i don't read code =P), gives the same bonus. Perhaps tone Storage down to 120% or raise Tiny to 140%?
- Why are there 3 Moody's? typo under Suicidal: "loses" should be "losses". ROFL I love suicidal!
- Typo in Demeanor: "Sleezy" should be "Sleazy", "Venegful" should be "Vengeful".
- Game starts...
- Why is the reason for Basic Bridge? why does it come after the normal one?
- "We are reciving an automated message from this planet."
- "We have reason to belive there is alien technolegy on this planet."
- The "Burger King" description should have "engraved" instead of "ingraved".
- The description of the ship the size of an entire moon gets truncated at "imperial marki"...
- The description for the buried resupply base should read "bases" instead of "base".
- Space port costs 38kT? holy. Resupply, Space Yards, 12k and 20k? Oh goodness me.
- My Homeworld has 0% reproduction at Indifferent happiness. Something's not right... 12/16B at this stage.
- Advanced Power Conservation is quite cheap at 1000...
- Colo Tech at High Tech Level is still bugged. I get lvl 1 tech instead of 3 for homeworld type tech. Does the game allow this to be modded?
- Typo? "Multy-Pumped Quantum Engine I".
- Hey are you serious about the high level hulls having such incredible damage resistance? Combat won't finish in 30 rounds, by my guess... Haven't got around to testing that... And the hulls are way cheap!
- Small typo in Large Fighter Bay. "fighter" should be "fighters".
- Have you tested whether Research from ships gets back to the Empire without a Spaceport in that system?
- The Continuous Anti-Proton Beam states in its description +65% to hit, but isn't in the Abilities. Is it for real?
- "___ Laser Turret" has a typo "powerfull".
- "Kazar Beam Cannons" has typo "streems".
- "Negitive Ion beams"? Or "Negative"? same thing in description, so i don't know.
- PD missiles! WOW! Maybe could add some Rad cost.
- Hydrogen Bombs have higher levels?
- 1M reasearch points for Colo Tech Level 2.. high?

Gotta go!
