I am finaly releasing my Tri-Pirate Mod, beta Three.

For Entrenchement 1.041

http://www.mediafire.com/?az4mgo2xzdm

My Pirate Mod started out as an attempt to weld the Pirates into a Unique playable civilization. With a quality that rivals the original game, and a completly new way to handle the economy.

Pirates don't colonize, Pirates don't reaserch (very much). And Plundering is the only source of happiness!!

Latly however, this endevour has become much deeper. With Stiener Giving John Skalavan a face (leader of the pirates), and Fileosoft giving him a comand ship. This mod has become an epic quest to flush out John Skalavan. To bring his truth to the world!!


This beta contains the entire structure of the pirates. All the abilities are finished as I currently imagine them.

All ships are in place and the reaserch tree is complete!


Only things this mod does NOT contain

Complete models (Most are TEC standins at this point. So as of yet, screenshots still don't show anything worthwhile)
Most 2D art are stadins. (More coming thanks to Stiener!)
Any Voice Acting. I do have voices to add, but I havn't gotten complete sets yet.


I also have a music mod that I developed to go along with the Pirate mod.  (works with ANY version of sin!)

http://www.mediafire.com/?yjiwjezwxl2

This music mod contains music from Star Trek Legacy, Homeworld (all), and a little more. It also contains Gurkov's sound mod. It is easy to cobine with any mod, as for entrenchment it can just be enabled on top of the mod. For normal sins, you must manuly combine them (Instructions included in the mod)


I HEAVILY sugest you download the music mod. It increases the atmosphere of the game, and espcialy my Pirate mod, a hundred fold.


This IS a beta, so I'd VERY much appreciate ANY feedback. Negitive, positive, or otherwise. Just post the feedback here, on my forums, Email me, or message me. Any way is fine.

Forums- http://danmangames.com/forums/index.php?board=60.0

 

Also, if you wish to participate in the creation of this AWSOME mod. I have plenty of postions open.

Moddelling
UV mapping
Texturing
Voice Acting
and 2D artwork!

 

Lastly, I must give credit to all those who have helped me. this mod would not be possible without them! I may have missed someone, if I have, please speak up so I can put your name in.

In no particular order:

Credits:
Fileosoft (For all his epic help! and making the models, he made the battleship)
StienerX for the beutifal artwork
Rhuges and Infernal Creator, for the Voice acting. (Not yet included in this beta)
Tobi-Wahn Kenobi, for all the support
XmasBeer and xXx for their help with the models.
And the to rest of 7DS for all their help and support. Especialy Danman.

Lastly, final credit to Gurkov for his sound mod, and to Ironclad and Stardock for this awsome game!!

 

EDIT:

Here is a patch to update the mod to 1.05. Instructions are included in the patch

First off i've been playing this mod for a while now and love the idea of it, it adds a hole new aspect to the gameplay of Sins we've all come to love. Could you give me ETA on when the Abomination Defender will be textered please, i understand its just a beta and if you can't give me a ETA then no worries, the model looks awsome as too dose all the new ships in the mod. Very impressive!

Great mod, but I'm having a problem with the music pack (which is also great).  The battle7 and quite7 will not extract, I've dl'd it 4-5 times over the period of a week and every time those two files will not extract.  Do other people have this problem as well?

In any case, I shall patiently await more updates for this groovy mod.

Awsome, very glad you like it.

 

I don't know why those two songs arn't extracting for you. Maby your computer doesn't like the number seven, lol.

 

I just got a new modeler, so things will be moving alot faster now, but at a price. The intire visual style of the mod will change. I am no longer using the in-game pirates as a launching off point. I will have totaly new models.

The Brigantine Battleship will remain, but it will get a make-over.

Well finally got it was pain trying to get it downloaded through mediafire . Really like the mod best attempt at pirate mod i've seen so far . Really like the unique way you did the research. Can't wait until you get the icon on the ship' s and research tree . Btw the right pirate icon on wing of the first capital ship is upside down( the ship pictured in above post ).
