Star Wars Mod

Star Wars Mod

I figured since it is inevitable, I will start a thread to get ideas out on a star wars mod. Who will the sides be? What will the map look like? Units? Tech? etc.

Uh.. i must have done something wrong.. can't get it to work. Never had this problem before.. weird.

I downloaded the file and saved in on the disk (i didn't get to choose a location) and then downloaded it, i was surprised to see that i needed to choose a program to what to open the file, i chose Soase (regretting it now) I put it in the mod folder and created a folder for it containing the mod, i activated it but nothing happened (i am so retarded...)

The file's a .rar (like a .zip file basically) , and that, so you need to decompress the file to get the files out if you haven't already, not sure if you have by your post or not, then put those files in the folder with all the sub directories and everything.

But if you've exxtracted all the files from the .rar and put em in the right folder, it should work i imagine.

since the empire had well over a thousand star destroyers i think they should be like heavy cruisers/ capital ships that DONT affect the amount of cap ships you can buy because seriously... 16 star destroyers? i think we need some alternatives to using the star destroyers as capital ships.

For anyone that needs a tool to extract .rar, .zip, etc. files. Use 7zip. It's extremely useful and can extract many many different kinds of archive files. It's really really easy to use, also. Here is the link for it. And it's free.

7Zip

Is the point to play against the imperials as well? Pretty much dominates the stock races.

If IC fixed the build limits I would consider rearranging what is a frigate and cruiser, the problem is that you can't give cruisers experience related abilities yet. so for right now they are capital ships until IC fixes some stuff(besides I don't have enough big ships to put in as capitals modelled yet)

yeah play against imperials

lol yes. I took the pirate base with ISD MKII, VSD, ASD MKI, and like 5 or 6 random frigates/cruisers.

So playing for an hour or so I have a to-do list for you EvilleJedi (I understand its just a beta! No flaming me!!!!)

Build Icons / Zoomed out icons / Faction color on ships

There are only icons for the ISDs and a few frigates (but those for the frigates aren't really the actual frigates). The ones for the frigates change to a vasari ship when you do not have enough of a material to build one.

The faction color should be on the ships in the final build. That helps determining whos ship is whos when zoomed in.

I'd like to help with the zoomed out icons but all I have is MS paint. If you don't mind me doing them in that, then I will (idk what color they need to be though).

Factory and other building models


Shields that fit the ship (some do, others don't)


Rebel Faction / Separation of Rebels from the empire / Pirate faction
Corellian Corvetts aren't the empire's :p And you can pwn the pirates easily now, so there needs to be a beefier pirate faction.

More Frigate types
Like a colony frigate. The ASD is too over powered to be one. Perhaps you should make it a Capitol ship

Balancing
I'm not saying balance the empire with the other sins factions. What needs to be balanced are resources (the metal and crystal required for somethings is ridiculous). It seems like you changed the code so there would be more metal extractors, but now there are less crystal extractors. Even ice planets have metal.

You also need to balance the ships. I had a ASD MKI (the colony one) fighting a Victory SD and it was a stalemate. As soon as one ship's shields starting to go down, they went back up again.

Tech Tree and SSD
Nuff said.

Fix the KDY defense platforms!
They currently don't fire any weapons but do have an ion bolt. Good idea except for 1 small issue: they don't have antimatter!! o noes!

Voice overs?
Eh IDK if you even want to do this but putting in awesome voices would make this mod an A+++++ mod.

Keep being awesome
:CONGRAT:

How do I install this mod, or any mod for that matter? My first time and my google and forum searches are proving pointless.
