Has Haida Gwaii been released, I didn't see the mod as downloadable in the original thread ?

Or is it still in beta, only available on request ?
One more round of beta, I expect a brief round. Then I am going to make 1.0 available. 1.0 Should be the final version unless Illwinter releases some absolutely phenomenal modding commands in a future patch.

I'm just doing nation mods for now, but I'll do misc mods (like the excellent streamers and standards) later.

Amos, am I right to mark all of your mods as 'no' for balanced with vanilla? I'm just going by what people said in the threads and what you yourself said. I still think your mods are excellent and creative for SP (which is what modding's about really).

Default Re: The Mod List

This looks like a sincere effort to maintain a mod list.
Are you also going to create a categories for non-nation mods?
Such as
Balance mod
Random mod
Play All Nations in one game mod

Since its a good effort Im willing to sticky it. Id have preferred a thread to track everything in this forum. Mods, Maps, Tools.. in order to avoid a screenful of stickies. But I cant really ask someone to tackle that.

Default Re: The Mod List

Sombre, I'm happy you took this idea up. Good start! Perhaps the authors of the various mods can help you by posting here in a format you request, so you only have to "compile" instead of hunting around!

For example,
Quote:
Type of Mod: Nation, Balance, Random, Pretenders, Spells, Items/Armor, Other
Name:
Hyperlink to mod post:
Version:
Final:
Author:
Desc:
Doms3 Version:
Balanced for vanilla:
However, things like version numbers might keep you busy just updating. If you just link to the mod's post, the author can post their own version numbers as they update.

I'll act on my words with the following:
Quote:
Type of Mod: Pretenders
Name: Mytheology
Hyperlink to mod post: http://www.shrapnelcommunity.com/thr...b=5&o=&fpart=1
Version: 1.4
Final: No (ongoing)
Author: Psientist
Desc: Sixteen new Pretenders including five brand new deities and eleven Pretenders formally available only as Summons. There are a few Super Combatants and some very powerful magic-users. The new Pretenders include: Desire (New - Middle Man), Fallen Angel (Pythium Middle), Grim Reaper (New: Ermor, All Ages), Heliophagus (Abysia Late), King of Banefires (Yomi Early), King of Deeper Earth (Argatha Early), Lord of the Plague Wind (Machaka Middle), Morpheus (New - Arcocephale Late), Pantokrator (New - All), Queen of the Sea (Oceania Early), Queen of Thunder (Caelum Early), Shah of Djinn and Ifreet (custom graphic - Marignon Middle), Tarrasque (New - Maverni Early), Teratos Rex (New - C'Tis Early), Treelord (custom graphic - Pangea Early), Vastness (Ryleh Middle)
Doms3 Version: 3.0
Balanced for vanilla: (not sure)

Also, can we request the forum mods to make this post a "sticky" so it doesn't drift down where it's hard to find?

I had already said that I would.
But you have to say that and then let it sit for abit. Otherwise everyone wonders where the post went.

Default Re: The Mod List

Yes, I'll add in various misc mods as well as nation mods. I probably won't add every small balance or fix mod, but the larger ones will be in there eventually.

It's not terribly hard for me to keep it up to date with version changes, although it would help if people could point out any errors in the list or remind me to update something.

Two notes

- I'm including 'works with 3.06' rather than 'requires minimum dom3 vers of..' because I have to assume that most people are using 3.06, especially people who are using mods. I understand that 3.06 won't work for people who got their copy a 'certain' way, but there's not much that can be done about that. Most mods will work ok on 3.00 anyway - It's what I was using until recently - but some might not work with 3.06 or whatever the latest version is at any given moment.

- Balanced for vanilla doesn't mean that anyone is /certain/ that's it's balanced, just that it was made with balance in mind or made to be used with vanilla settings. So if you make a new nation and you use your own pricing scheme or do not refer to the prices etc of vanilla dominions nations then that's a 'no', but if you /try/ to balance it to vanilla that's a 'yes', although obviously balance is always a work in progress (even for Illwinter).
