Intimidator, I'll have you know that your mod ate 1.3 gigabytes of SEnet's bandwidth during the month of July.

okay , like to hear that.
I'm back now from a much needed vacation, so will be working on the mod again and hopefully have an more final version ready in a few days.

And to you SEIK, I want to try it but never did it before, so be patient. first I will finnish the MP-version for PBW. And I will start working on an SP-version.

But as I said, never did it before and it could become a real PITA

Inti,

Glad to hear that you plan a SP-version (after completing the MP-version).

One question:
Is it feasible/useable to play it with only two players (Rebels vs. The Empire)?

Yes, That is possible , just use all the rebel-traits when making your empire (alliance / Calamari /Bothan).
But I tried to ballance the mod a bit, so it would be very easy for the empire when the Rebel are starting with only 1 planet....... They really need 2 against 1 imperial starting planet.

That sounds good!
But how to setup the game (Empire 1 planet & Rebels 2 planets)?

Hi !

Just to let you know, the work on that map as we have discussed inti is proceeding. I think i will need a week or 1 1 1/2 to complete it!

Intimidator · #6 August 7th, 2005, 05:59 PM

Perfect Heretic, good to hear.
I am working on a few minor races now : 2 x Hutt (tatooine and huttspace), Alderaan and Naboo. And am still adding some unique-planet-techs : Honoghr (Noghri), Kamino (cloning).

After that I think you will be ready with the map, and I will make that version available and will ask PBW to add it!
And in the next version I will add a few more races : Sullustan, Hapan, Ssi'Ruuk..........

I not possible , but you can create a game with 1 empire and 2 rebels with both of them all the rebel-traits. And let them start in same system, and just let one of them surender to the other.

But again , mod is far from SP.

Sp will take a lot of effort. You have to basicially build the AI from scratch to use the new components, facilities, and such. The one thing the AI does well is not understanding what it needs to do well.

Intimidator · #9 August 7th, 2005, 06:57 PM

Yes I know, figured that out already a long time ago.
That't the reason I know/think I will not be able to do it, But I 'only' got 41 requests the last month to make an single player version. So I think it is 'polite' to at least try it !!!!! isn't it ?????
