Any interest in an Eclipse Mod game at PBW?

I seem to be missing a portion of the planet pictures. If someone can send me that whole file, it'd be greatly appreciated.

I have it ready to send - but it's over 6 megabytes zipped. Do you want me to email it or did someone already get it to you? (Don't wanna overload your mailbox! )

Sorry about the late response. I've been away all day.

A basic summary of Eclipse Mod is that it is a complete rewrite of just about everything SE4. Components, facilities, ship sizes, research, intelligence, etc. Individual planets are very important. Missiles are powerful and use size mounts but can be hindered by most fighter weaponry. Ships get very large. However the larger the ship the less accuracy and evasion it has. Therefore smaller ships with good tech used in squads are effective at countering larger vessels. Research is divided up into very specific areas to allow more control and precision in your chosen studies. I'm sure there is more I can say but I can't think of anything else right now.

Eclipse was designed with solo and hotseat tactical combat in mind. This is the PBW simultaneous turns strategic combat trial run.

In regards to missing pictures the only problem I can think of is if you used the data only files to patch an older version. It may be missing some new warp and star images or something. I'll see if I can isolate those images and set them up for download by tomorrow.

Oh yes, Eclipse uses lots of stuff from the SoundMod so get that if you want to hear new sound stuffs.

for some reason i cant see facilities images i have full patched version. Any ideas what is the problem?

[RCCCL]

I didn't patch. I downloaded the full version. It has the small pictures for everything, seems to be missing some of the large planet category pictures. Maybe it had to do with my using Dial-up internet, and taking 4 hours to download.

EK, if you'd e-mail it to me that'd be great. No one has yet.

I had another issue to ask as well, but didn't get it in before I had to leave for work.
I tried running a simultaneous game, and for some reason I saw every combat that happened every turn, whether I was involved or not, while the turn was processed. Although after I only got to replay my own combats.

RazorSharp, you need to get the imagemod pack. The Eclipsemod didn't come with the pictures. You can get the imagemod pack on SpaceEmpires.net whenever the site is back up. It seems to be down right now for some reason. There maybe be somewhere else you can get it, but I'm not sure. Maybe some one else knows....hint....hint...anybody?

[Ed Kolis]

OK, RCCCL, what's your email? It doesn't seem to be in your profile...

[RCCCL]

Ah, hmmm, I'll have to change that I guess.
