[MOD] 7 DEADLY SINS : by DANMAN GAMES (DANMAN3712) ver 2.5 FINAL AVAILABLE to the PUBLIC!

The Ultimate Combo mod - featured in PC GAMER

http://www.danmangames.com
from Sins Forums

Welcome to the 7 DEADLY SINS mod, as featured in PC GAMER by DANMAN .

 

Welcome to 7 Deadly Sins 2.5 FINAL for the latest version of Sins Entrenchment 1.053.
7DS can only be played at HIGH maximum settings. DO NOT USE VERY HIGH settings. This will cause a minidump. Also, there is an issue with Win7 64 bit. You will get crashes, load errors, or the game will not even play, with or without warning. Just keep reloading the game and trying until you actually get into the game and play. This is a Windows problem, not a problem with Sins or 7DS.

 

7 Deadly Sins is:

The ultimate combo mod, the "unoffical" expansion of Sins of a Solar Empire, or so it has been dubbed by the mod community.
The work of many individual modders working together under my leadership (DANMAN3712).
Nearly 4 years old and downloaded in various forms over 100k times worldwide and in 5 languages.

Together, we form the 7DS Mod Team and the backbone of DANMAN GAMES www.danmangames.com

Mobile Starbases -all races possess starbases that can move about the gravity well to interdict enemy forces -assault carefully.

 

12 Playable Races with their own traits that make them more unique, from being a total offensive race, to a highly researching race. Each race now has its own unique tactics of gameplay.

Trader Emergency Coalition- solely based on trade and swarming, with little military might
Corpo-Nations that have rebelled against the Trade Order. Their military might stripped, they have turned to allying themselves with various factions and hiring mercs for protection.
TEC has new Battlecruisers, mercenary contracts, and EMP shells that bypass shields to a small degree.
Trade Coalition Armada- the military arm of the Trade Order
Once the development arm of the Trade Order, they are now the last hope for the Trade Order and humanity. Their ships are bricks with extreme range railguns.

TCA has state of the art weapons on traditional capitalships plus the Dresden and Athena Dreadnought and Beta Kol Titan.
The Orion Unity- modified Orion and Advent Combine
Some Orion split with the Atlantian-Orion Combine to guide the Advent towards their ultimate evolutionary stage. TOU ships are stronger, faster and deadlier; They can even travel between worlds using the Phase Stabilizer technology of the Tempest Titan.
Ship research boosts weapon performance.

DARK FLEET- modified Vasari
The Dark Fleet is all that remains of the Vasari. Where the weak Exodus ran often and fought rarely, the Dark Fleet seeks total dominion through force of arms. Their 5 Titan ships roam looking for prey.
Play style is familiar with greater armor, firepower and destructive potential.

Imperial Armada- from Star Wars
Guided by a clone of General Thrawn, the wasteland armadas of the Imperial Armada can employ powerful Force Alchemical Technology and even unleash the power of the Executor Super Star Destroyer.
Can unlock Jedi and/or Sith Holocrons for performance boost to defenses or offenses respectively -and at the expense of the other.

Rogue Cadre- Playable, custom pirates
Rob, pilfer, and steal your way to greatness. The Rogue Cadre is a melting pot of human cultures, Advent refugees and what remains of the Vasari. They have gathered against the TCA, TOU, Atlantian-Orion Combine and TOC to free humanity from tyranny, mysticism and slavery.
Posess the Precursor Titan and The Machine -the latter capable of capturing capitalships

Arilou Vanguard- UFO race from the Star Control Games
Not being of this dimension, the Arilou do not rely on money and normal means of transport or construction. They simply spawn ships from their "motherships", and travel through Quasispace, which propels them at near instant speeds from planet to planet.

Ur-quan KohrAh Third Doctrinal Fleet- Death race from the Star Control games
Totally aggressive, the Korh-Ah are built for battle. They are all offense, and barely any defense. They focus on exterminating every race and every planet they find, and almost every ship is capable of boming from orbit. Their goal is to "cleanse" the universe of all other sentient life, anything that is not an Ur-Quan.

Ur-Quan KzerZa Third Doctrinal Fleet- Slaving race from the Star Control games
Unlike their Kor-Ah cousins, the Kzer-Za believe in a diplomatic approach, let alone old habits of enslaving entire races into their Hierarchy. They have grown from their 10,000 year old ways, and are more good than bad now.

Atlantian-Orion Combine- the ultimate race, the seeders of life (the gods)
The Combine are part of the original Creator Alliance and responsible for seeding galaxies with genetic data. The Orion are the protectors and defenders until the Atlantian vessels can be fielded. Their greatest strength is their technology, but the loss of labs remove bonuses gained from research.

Taalo Horde- Ancient Rock race, from the Star Control games
As if the universe itself groaned for a protector, the Taalo have awakened from a million year slumber only to find old allies -the Atlantians and Arilou stripping the galaxy of semi-sentient flo-metal. They are the ultimate enviromental defender with a naive sense of justice. They have incorporated alien technology into their asteroid bodies with great results.

Triad of Creation- Ancient Destroyers of Worlds, Galactic Enslavers
The Triad of Creation, the Dnyarri, Antaran and Lapis, seek to eradicate all life in the universe. They nearly destroyed the Atlantian-Orion Combine in the Ori galaxy by turning their creation -the Vasari- against them. They emerged from within the Rogue Cadre taking a sizeable portion of their population into slavery. Their fleets struck the Taalo and Dark Fleet with vessels designed for infiltration nearly crippling the two factions.

Hi guys,

The vanilla races are just that, vanilla.  I did this on purpose to prove a point.  To prove what could be accomplished through modding versus standard out of the box. 


Enjoy the vanilla races now, especially if you want a challenge.  They all die in version 2.5

DANMAN




   I've been thinking about your decision to delete the TEC, advent and Vasari races from 2.5 all afternoon. I wanted to get some more experience playing 7DS before I typed a response so I didn't spout some kneejerk reaction out. So now that I've had time to think about it, experience the mod 1st hand, I really do believe that it would be a mistake to cut them.

There are so many wonderful things in 7Ds to enjoy but if we want to play an original tech game, your decision forces us to go stock. That's unfortunate.

Leaving them in is a feature. If in fact your storyline touts your expanded base races as spin offs, leaving the originals fits. That's just a weak storyline argument, I know. But the main thing is that sometimes we may want to play an original race against an expanded tech race. Your new 2.5 mod will prevent us from enjoying that. Please don't do that. Please keep them. 7DS would be better for having them included.


Sadly, its not that we want to get rid of the vanilla races, its that we have to in order to add more stuff to the mod. You see, there is a hard-coded limit on the number of meshes that can be loaded by the game. If you exceed that, the game crashes every time you run the mod, no matter your graphics settings, etc. 7ds has hit that limit. So for there to be any more new stuff added, other stuff (the vanilla races) have to go. Believe me when I say that you are not alone in wanting the vanilla races to stay, however, it is necessary for anything more to be added to 7ds.

EDIT: DANMAN, you beat me to it again! You posted as I was writing this. How do you do that?

Surely instead of adding more stuff, the current stuff could just be improved and balenced more? I mean, so far the logic seems to be just "adding stuff for sake of adding stuff"

End of DroneFragger's quote

 

I think that you have not understand the meaning of adding "stuff"... by example, The Dark ( who was existing from the first version of the mod ) use vasiri ship... we cannot use other ship for them due to the harcoded limit... removing the basic race will free room and allow us to finish/complete/balance the actual race...

 

Models like these below can be in 7DS if the harcoded limit is removed by Stardock or if the vanilla race are deleted... using vanilla mesh don't help for balance ship... weapons bank are "describe" in the .mesh file via null point... adding one weapon or ability change the .mesh file... again hitting the hardcoded limit...

 

 

Sins have a good engine but everything is linked together... something simple like resize a ship, modify weapon or ability, or new particule null point, or new textures can ask for a fully new .mesh file...

 

For example, a guy have made a mod with planet/sun from different size... it is more realistic, like in the real universe.... people who don't know how sins internal work, will think that all is simple... but for each size, a planet use a different .mesh file... for all planet from the same size, but using different color map ( oceanic planet, forest planet, vulcano planet, etc ), again a new .mesh file... If texture was define in the entity file in place of the mesh file, it will allow the use of different texture for the same mesh... but the engine don't allow it... and modder cannot modify the engine ( it is maybe by possible decompilation but not legal )...

 

So, if we wish finish the TCA, The Unity and the Dark, we have no choice... vanilla race need to be deleted... the TCA, Unity, and Dark will be the steroid version of the vanilla one... these race will be balenced regarding the other race in 7DS...

Drone, you have no idea how much was cut because of hardcode limits.  Many mods focus on changing existing files without adding meshes, sounds, textures, etc... This mod then, with permission, brings those mods together with all within 7DS to create one massively kick-ass universe.

Please keep in mind, Even if the existing 7DS team adds nothing new of their own and only adds 2-3 mods, that alone will be impossible to do.  Do you really want to piss of the BORG that badly?

So is this why only the Empire from SW and no ST races made it in? If you get rid of the vanilla races doesnt that only let you add 3 more races?

Reply #2981 from Sins Forums Top

No, the reason is at the time 2.0 started being made SoA2 wasn't hadn't been released yet.  Later on it got released, and one of the devs privately added in the Federation to his version of 7DS, where they kicked ass.  Dan wants them included, trust me on that, and it will finally allow the Great Question of whether it is Star Trek or Star Wars that is cooler.  (Its Star Wars by the way.  No need for the mod to tell me that.)

Unfortunately, shortly after these pics I had to turn down my building graphics, so the ships and planets look great, but structures are kinda crappy:

So far I've only been Empire, but the ISD 1+2 kick ass!  Love the laser sounds.

About hardcodes:

I don't think there's a single member on the team who hasn't wanted to strangle someone because of them.  I know it's annoying having to watch Fileosoft (thoumsin)'s, Kyogre's, Makon, my, and a few other's models be delayed from incorporation because of the hardcodes.

And the Vanilla races get a bit boring.  I mean, they're vanilla.  Plain.  Flat. Boring.

Whereas the Steamrolling Empire, Research-Crazy Atlantians, the Steroid Races, and the Spammorific Korh-Ah all have a distinct feel.  That, and the vanilla are getting their souls owned by the other races.

Reply #2984 from Sins Forums Top

And lets not the forget the complete lack of faction diversity the vanilla races had.  Compare the TEC, Advent, and Vasari to the TCA, Unity, and Dark Fleet, and see how different the various playstyles are.  Spammy TEC is NOTHING compared to the all-powerful railguns of the TCA.

Great to play the new 7DS 2.0! I kept a copy of 1.05, just to play it.

 

I am also looking forward to see what the 7DS team is going to add in 2.5!

 

An excellent mod, always worth waiting for!

I'm hoping the 7DS 2.0 Empire's Military tech gets streamlined a bit. Seems like an afterthought how it was done.

I mean, why would I take an ISD Type I when for the same tech and logistics and nearly the same price I can get a better type II? I think the Military Research Stations should be stepped to reflect the better version having fewer for a Type I and more for a Type II required. Gives the player a need to work to upgrade to something improved. I think think this needs to be adjusted.

I have to agree, and I will try to address this for 2.5.

Wanted to chime in a bit too.  TONS of stuff was cut from 2.0 guys, for the hardcode limits.  It if was not for those limits, 2.0 would have been out in November.

I also want to reiterate about Ares and the DARK Siege TITAN.  I made it flat on purpose.  Ares the Atlantian ship, God of War, is streamlined, and to make it look like an aquatic creature, like a manta ray and a scorpion blended together.  Hence its flatness.  The DARK were created by the Atlantians, all the Vasari were.  They use a downscaled, unevolved version of the original Atlantian ship, which was the Ares.  That is why the Atlantians and DARK both have Crystals in their hulls.  They have similar tech in that area.  Only the Atlantians are about a few million years more advanced.

Now, with regards to vanilla races.  If the mesh limit was removed by Ironclad in the new version of Sins/Entrencement, then they might stay in.  If they dod not remove the limit, then they are getting exterminated in the storyline, and dropped from the mod.  I need to make room for the Federation, the Rebels, the TCA ships, and all the Star Control races that still have to come in.

I am glad you guys are enjoying the mod.  Keep the comments coming!

Why do you think that VSD2 is better that VSD1... one is more laser type, the other more missile type... both have very different ability... the VSD1 have directly 2 command point, VSD2 have only one command point...

 

Using a VSD1 along with a VSD2 give a more better result in battle that two VSD1 or two VSD2... take a look at the VSD1 ability, they are all related to attack... VSD2 is more about defensive... VSD2 can use ion blast for "frooze" a powerfull enemy, and then the VSD1 can go near the ennemy and cut it in piece with his offensive ability...

 

Strategy in fleet creation is about put together different class of capital ship who will help each other... the sum of two different capital ship will be higher that the sum of 2 identical capital ship...

Reply #2993 from Sins Forums Top

In the game, you spell capital ship wrong for all the Atlantian ships.  Is there a way I can go in and easily fix this?  It is kinda driving me bonkers.

 

Also, I like your inclusion of stellar conversion, but can you also reform planets after you destroy them like in the Moo series?

 

You could also add new portraits for the Star Control races using images from Star Control 3.  The Star Control 2 ones look a bit dated.  You can find some on this site: http://starcontrol.classicgaming.gamespy.com/

I still fail to see how this isn't just "adding everything together for the sake of adding everything together". It's still a good mod and all, but it just seems like stuff is just being added regardless of anything else. Total annihilation mods eventually had this problem, with quite a large number of them having large numbers of units with similar roles and strengths costing wildly different amounts, just for the sake of having more units.

Still a good mod though (ps release an entrenchment version already :v)

Reply #2995 from Sins Forums Top

It was my impression that 7DS was always meant to be a huge merge mod project with a few extra goodies thrown in for good measure.

By that definition, adding things that have been released to the community since the last version is exactly what it's purpose is.  It doesn't matter that, for a generic example, the Empire has a ship with similar abilities to something the Atlantian fleet has, the point is to allow you to be able to pit the Empire up against the Atlantians if you so desired.

Being a huge Star Control fan (hence the inclusion of the races in 7DS) I know all about the Pages of Now and Forever.  However, I was trying to keep things SC2, not SC3, as most fans consider SC3 a blunder and non cannon, but I may end up using some in the future.  Glad to see another Star Control Fan!  Oh, and by the way, Scott Irving is one of my modders too, he is the guy who runs the Pages of Now and Forever.  The Arilou Skiff is actually his model that he made for me, and then I modified it to get it into the game.  Glad to see you are keeping me on my Star Control toes!

I fully undertand what you are trying to say.  But, just to defend myself and all those who helped make this mod, have you played the whole thing yet?  Have you played each race?  Experienced all the ships, all the planets and stars?  All this was done with a direct plan, and all on purpose to achieve the feel for the mod that I was going for.  Each mod that was merged was done with purpose, and also due to people's requests.  The 7DS universe is my own invention, where every Sci-fi fans dreams become reality.  So, it was done on purpose, but also try to understand that MUCH is missing due to the hardcode limits in the game.  So, it is missing what could have been an even grander mod.

So, if you still feel it was just thrown together, please give examples of why you feel this way, and I will do what I can to correct that.
