Re: New Mod: Insectoids
Yeah, Zepath and Amos are the two main mod masters around here. They've both made really great looking nations with a lot of flavour. Amos' are more distinctive looking and contain some more innovative gameplay twists, but Zepath's are balanced for vanilla play and are very modding newb friendly.
Without them the rest of us would have a lot less to play with and probably feel a lot less inspired to make our own nations.
Check out the modlist for more non nation mods and stuff being added ;]

I could not agree more. I am amazed by the industrious nature of these two. It takes quite of effort to put out a good mod, but Amos and Zepath turn them out like its nothing.
Keep up the good work

Re: New Mod: Insectoids
Ive gotten the error trying to host a turn both with and without Regina. Im fully patched with no others mods running and the only thing i can manually get into on your mod is the folder with all the pictures so i cant make the changes you suggested.

Re: New Mod: Insectoids
Just use notepad (or another text editor) to edit the .dm file named,.. insectoids I suppose.

Re: New Mod: Insectoids
Open the Insectoid.dm file with notepad as Sombre suggested.
#newmonster 2525
#name "Primordia Regina"
#descr "Oldest living Nest queen, she is the epicenter of the Insectoid superorganism. While other species may view her as a god, the Insectoids don't possess religious philosophies. Their devotion to their Prime Queen is unquestioning and is akin to religious devotion of other races."

Re: New Mod: Insectoids
Did suggested changes, still same problem.
edit: ok, after making the suggested changes, the third time i created a game it worked and is still working. I have one question though: are the spawns from creatures dom dependant?

Re: New Mod: Insectoids
Very nice mod. I like all the summons but i feel the swarms/swarm mother may be a bit strong. While not very damaging a 1 slave creature with 6 attacks at attack level 13(with each attack reducing the enemies defence by 2 iirc) and some fear seems pretty evil
