Stargate Invasion is a total conversion mod for Sins of a Solar Empire: Entrenchment and Diplomacy . As of this time, there is no FINAL release date yet for this mod.

  

 

The mod will be built in 2 halves.  The first is the Pegasus side, I.E. Humans, Wraith and Asurans, with the Pirates being a classified race at the moment.  The second part of the mod, will add in the Asgard and Goa'uld races to the mix, we will even be creating a separate version of the mod as well, which will just be Humans, Asgard and Goa'uld, with the Lucien Alliance as the Pirates for that half.

Wow... that must have been a strain on the eyes to get all those small details of that model in... it's gonna be an even bigger strain on the eyes of the guy who has to texture that thing :p

Entrenchment is good but diplomacy is just new.

Sorry but i don't think they are nearly finished, From the mod info post at the top.

 "Currently, the mod is approximitely 40% done.  We are attempting to get everything done as fast as possible for the humans so that we can release a public beta for everyone to play."

The beta test i am guessing is for the human faction so they can get a demo of the mod out at least. They will still have a lot of work to do on the Wraith and Asurans. Not part of the mod team so i am guessing that part. Yes they have been at this a long time but so have other mods, ie Dawn of Victory thats been on the go for about the same time and they haven't got anything out yet either. Eomega also started out on his own as well, you just have to have a wee bit of patience and we'll get a quality mod.

Remember though, mods for games are made out love for a game and they do it in there spare time, for some people that might not be much time at all. So 9 times out of 10 it is impossible to say when its going to be released and having worked on mods for other games i know for a fact posting a release date is also a bad idea because if you miss that date for whatever reason you get alot more grief from the community for missing the date even for really valid reasons than getting grief for taking along time to make it.

Hello all let clear things up we are more complete than 40% done model wise we are about 80% done code wise 75% done, texture wise we are 40% done , overall we are about 65% complete.  Time is always a concern. Hope this clears things up a bit

thanks sgi mod team

It seems like the OP needs to be edited so that it is fairly obvious there is no open beta, nor is there an ETA for one.

oh i love "smartboys" like you... you coldnt resist, could you ? i just asked and it take really no time to answer to me, compared to time that making mod take. So leave me alone.. i guess that if they will ever publish it that they have some ETA in their minds it doesnt have to be day, even year is fine, iam really looking forward for this and i check this regulary so some small info would really make me happy..

when will this mod b done??? been keeping an eye on it in modD but it not progressed it always had the b304  ship that all not even a single race done.  how long untill here is a full race ready for release?

Reply #1668 Top
... read the post bevore this site they realse it when there finish not when 1 race is done i mean what do you want with one race ? playing againgts the same races ase you playing is pretty lame
Reply #1669 Top

if 1 race is 100% complete they can make sure it will work  they could release it in 3 years with all the races cause if u noticed they continue 2 upgrade/redo the 304 all the time a guy has already managed 2 get a stargate mod going have u thought about asking him if use could use some of his mod 2 give urs a little boost?

**facepalm**

Does no one read shit around here?

@koshe Had you read just this page alone, you would have seen the discussion on how complete the mod is and the fact that there is no release date estimate.

Also, the other Stargate mod does not use custom models(at least Dolynick didn't before, he may have had some donated) it is all coding, which isn't the problem for this mod. The reason this mod is taking so long is because ALL THE MODELS ARE CUSTOM. It takes time to create and texture the models to go ingame, and given the fact that this team has limited texture artists, means that it will take even longer.

I'm sorry to come off as harsh, but I'm so sick of people just sticking there head in, asking a lot of (truthfully) stupid questions that have already been answered a dozen times, and acting like the mod should be farther along then it is. Seriously, for the next person who posts 'whats the eta' or 'why don't you use this' or 'why is only this done', I want to invent some way to physically send my arm through the internet and backhand them across the face.

Guys this is fantastic, I've been watching the progress of the MOD from day 1, sure it has been a long time but I really think its going to be worth the wait. Huge Stargate fan, I just cannot believe the accuracy of these models your making. I've had a go at modelling myself and quite frankly I made a mess so I understand how difficult this is. I was wondering if an Earth defence outpost could be included as Earth's one piece of ancient technology, although I'm not sure what the game engine allows for. Obviously the planet couldn't be given a weapon as such but maybe give a planet a researchable ability similar to dolynick's drone swarm but for a planet instead of a ship. 

Again fantastic work, keep going cannot wait until the release  !!!

It doesn't take reading the whole thread. 99% of questions asked are answered in the last 2-3 pages.

Also, I'm not a Dev member, they respond more professionally than that. I'm just a longtime follower and beta tester who is sick to death of all the same questions. And since the Devs feel they need to act professionally, I feel it's my duty to give the grief they really want to.

I'm sure the Devs would like any texturing help you could provide. I doubt they would care what program you used as long it is convertible to .dds for sins.

So.. when does this mod come out?

 

Lol kidding. Everything is looking great so far, I've been watching the progress from deviantart for a while.
