Hey Lavo:

Just got rebellion and am starting to play you new updated version, with just a few start up questions.

1. Fleet command research 999. Basically you have removed this from the game? Something to do with titan class usage no doubt. While it is still available to research, by doing more research it actually goes down.

2. The civic research seems to have taken a hit, with a lot of it being removed. Also, the entire diplomatic tab has been removed. Is the a WIP?

Cheers

Cool. I actually like the new capital structure (Only checked empire so far).

On technology, in general:

I have been playing lots of the mods around the traps while waiting for my local store to get a copy of Rebellion, and I have noticed that with mods that don't really change to much in the way of vanilla sins ships (and hence have a lot more time to allocate on it) their research trees are just fantastic (stars mod, for example is excellent), and really adds to th 4X nature of the game. Do you ever see a time when all of the SOGE races have fully fleshed out, and unquie tech tree? I know there is a mountaion of work there, but I really feel that this type of thing would add an immersion level to SOGE that is somewhat missing.

Don't get me wrong SOGE (along with SOA2) are my favourite mods. If, in the distant future you are going to 'heavily' expand the tech tree would you mind if I helped out a 'bit' (Getting lore specific information, tech tree structures etc-I no modder-time and expertise are lacking) but I would like to help make this a reality, even if that means stealing and adapting  (with their permission of course) ready made tech tree sections. The canon for starwars is very large, so there should not be any lack of material. BTW, these are just thoughts, I know you guys have massive amounts of work going on in actually creating and finishing the races.

No, I'm old and do not use MSN/AIM/Skype or are familiar with IRC' (Had to goggle them to find out what they were  )

What I might do is look into what components go into making up a tech tree, and then just use the base sins diplomacy as a frame work and see if I can get this working in my own game. Once I get to this, will talk about how I get the files to you. As stated, I don't have a lot of time to work on this but will give it a try. Never know, it could be 'relatively' easy. Will keep you posted.

Where do I need to look for/or is there a guide for

1. Adding a new research tab (ie diplocay tab)

2. What files explain (graphically) where each picture is located in the tech tree.

3. So once I add a research enity files, this the must be updated in the entity manifest and player race file.? Anything else, such as the graphical pictures actually used (this must be located elsewhere).

As you can see a crash course is needed, lol, but I would love to get good enough to, eventually, put out 6 unique tech trees, just like soa2 has, to fully differentiate the races. (  What am I getting myself into).

@ Lavo

Ok, have started trying to add diplomacy techs.

Thought I'd start simple, so looked at tec diplomacy tab and tried to add only cultural relations.

1. Now, looking at the entity manifest for SOGE core I see that this tag is already present.  

2. With the latest SVN is seems you have added a diplacy tab (field) already.

3. So, now is should be a matter of adjusting the player enitiy file, with an addition research count, and the additionl research entity, and then actually adding this files to the game info folder?

I did this and the game crashes.

a. I need to known is there a way that I can see some type of logs as to why the game crashed.

b. In the actual research entiy files it talks about:

hudIcon "HUDICON_RESEARCHSUBJECT_CULTURAL_RELATIONS"
smallHudIcon "HUDICON_RESEARCHSUBJECT_CULTURAL_RELATIONS"
infoCardIcon ""
NameStringID "IDS_RESEARCHSUBJECT_CULTURAL_RELATIONS_NAME"
DescriptionStringID "IDS_RESEARCHSUBJECT_CULTURAL_RELATIONS_DESCRIPTION

Now,I am sure that if the game goes looking for this data, it has to actually be somewhere and I need to make sure that SOGE has this information. Where do I find/how do I update the relavent files for this?

Lastly, did I do something (or many things wrong) that you can see?

Edit:

Also, when I start adding the pact techs, does anything else need to be added for the relationship screen, as I noticed that in vanilla sins, there is all the information on the manage pact screen which are not tech related (but are tech dependent to open)

Also, what governs the ai's ability to choose techs? By adding diplomacy techs (when working) a human player will be able to use them but do I need to look into how the ai will use them?

Just a heads up Lavo, sent you a PM on beta site.

Join the beta, check the link at the top of the opening post.

the current rebellion is 1.041.4461. update your rebellion with steam

Planets are now visible, thank you.

The moddb links are now live.

It's not a bug. This is a known "issue", and there's two causes for it. One is, assuming you are on Windows, that the partition/hard drive you are running Sins off of lacks a paging file, which ensures that Sins cannot use up to 2 GB of RAM, as it should be. The solution to this is to enable a paging file, or use Large Address Aware on Sins' exe, though the latter method is not recommended. The second is that you are loading the mod with every single race; if you are not using all six races, don't load all six of them, as this uses up notably more RAM than necessary.
