SOASE AND ENTRENCHMENT MOD TOOLS PACK 1 - For SOASE 1.17 and Entrenchment 1.03
Greetings All!
I have finished putting together a mod tools pack that is a complete set of tools for modding Sins 1.17 and Entrenchment 1.03. This is an all inclusive pack, complete with text versions for both games for easy modding. I ahve also provided tons of programs that I use for modding, and all are open source and free for sharing.
Included are 3D Modeling programs, graphics programs, entity file editors, sound converters and recorders, compression software, and programs made by Harpo for automating processes that would normally have to be done by hand. Also included is the original Forge Tools by Ironclad which are unfortunately out of date right now, pluse the new DEV.exe developer builds which work for both Sins 1.17 and Entrenchment 1.03. There are even tools for updating older mods to the current versions of the game.
I hope that this pack helps out the new modder as well as the seasoned veteran alike. If you have any questions or concerns, you can either post here or send me and email. My contact info is provided with the mod pack. I will be writing tutorials later on as time allows, and will include them with the next mod pack and will post the info here as well.
The pack itself is hosted at www.danmangames.com. Click on Game Mods, then Sins of a Solar Empire, and the link will be towards the bottom of the page for the download.
