Quick synopsis

This mod introduces the colonial and cylon factions to the Sins of the Fallen universe. Both races will be playable with any of the planets, addons, and races included in Sins of the Fallen including the stock races. Both the colonial and cylon's factions will be balanced against the stock factions to support this approach. 

 

Colonial Fleet

Relying on heavily armored and armed ships the colonial fleet is always on the defense looking for cylon incursions. Lacking shields of any kind Battlestar Point Defense systems are used to intercept incoming weapons and minimize damage to nearby frigates and cruisers supporting the fleet.

I had them all on medium. It had to be maybe 25 minutes into the game, i built the colony, and gave it one level on each of the passives to hull/weapons. Then, boom. Medium map, 3 normal AIs, each on random.
Ok, I'll try recreating that one. Seems pretty straight forward to try. I basically uploaded this as soon as I verified it would load in Rebellion correctly

I still haven't been able to recreate this yet. Who knows right now. It's my first build out with rebellion so all kinds of things could still be wonky

Reloaded the most recent autosave, and it played just fine from there besides one issue when i first started, and that's when i set the Colony to build (again) and it was, at first, solid red (my team color), and then after a moment it turned solid gray, so i messed with the graphics settings once to refresh the textures and it was fine afterwards. I suspect that may have had something to do with the building process.

And with a full fleet of basestars, there are so many missiles being fired that 90% of them disappear shortly after being launched, which sort of kills the mood ;P  .

Quoting ZombiesRus5, reply 868Here's the first iteration with a titan for the cylons. I also cleaned up a bit of the research so it wasn't really awful. Now it's just sorta awful.

I have no idea when the next update will be, I'll just post them when I can.

 

I imagine that in future versions you will add the Boomer class as a Titan? Or is it already in there?

I'm slowly adding in things. I also want to try the faction selection functionality as a research item versus the current select at game start.

Ya, I really need to tweak this. I might have to reduce the number of hard points as well :(

Just need to find a sweet spot.

Yeah, sorry Z. I'll make it a habit to look back at least three pages before I ask another dumb question again.

Don't be so hard on yourself. It was answered in the same page a few replies above.

Also, good job on the port so far. I love it!. Can't wait till Colonial comes in!

But, a few things. First, some of the icons: all the victory conditions, victory condition time, and at the end the titan tab icon is missing. Second, the race selection is back to the original game. Third, when I have victory conditions set to flagship, the model is shown as the radiance. Besides that I made a few tweaks, just the command points and fleet size.

Fair enough. I know that they're minor, but those are the only things I have found that don't feel right.

This is just a quick and dirty conversion to satisfy those that wanted to play something in Rebellion before I start tearing apart the research and abilities. As previously stated it will take about 6-9 months to redo the abilities and research trees for the Cylons and Colonials. During that time I'll also cleanup any lose ends like you posted above.

Next version for cylons.

Adds the boomer class titan.

Requires you to research Loyalists or Rebels on the Fleet Logistics screen before you can build a Titan.

Let me know if the AI has any issues building a Titan. 

Also, delete your previous version before applying this one.

Looks like hard point reduction is in order. I tried making it work with better with other settings, but it appears the reduction is the best way to handle this situation.

Looking forward to less missile/FWOOOSH spam =P

So this seemed to take you maybe a week for cylons, think it'll be similar for Colonials, just to guess? (don't hate me, i just want more autocannons.) 

Reply #889 from Sins Forums Top

Well you can compensate less missile with more damage :cylon:

The colonial titans need hard-pointing and coding so it will take far more time for ZombiesRus5 to port them to rebellion.

They'll probably get some of that too with some rebalancing.

Kind of an off topic question, but I was wondering if anyone could tell me where I need to goto change the volume on the Cylon sound effects, everything else in the game is fine, but the missles and such for the cylons are so much louder then the rest of the game, I would like to balance it out more.

Ok, so colonials are working in Rebellion, but I'll need 2-3 weeks to hard point and make appropriate icons for the new titans. Also need to add hard points for the Cetus.

Z, take as much time as you need. I am enjoying the Cylons, allot! And I can probably speak the the rest of us when I say wan't the Colonials to be just as good as the Cylons.

ya no worries there. This is just the quick and dirty so you guys can have what's there. Once you get the colonial update it won't be until next year when you get what I would consider a completed mod.

I need help.... (hoping that it may be Koobalt!!)

A mate of mine has done most of the work and has modeled and UV'd an asteroid for me (that has an old school cylon basestar crashed in to it). It just needs to be textured.... would anyone be able to help, please, please, please!!!!!!

you can post the model, hope this is a .obj file and i don't promise anything.

Hey guys,

 

I'm running Rebellion v. 1.02. Ive extracted the file thats on the first page, about 300 MB, and the one on the last page, about 130 MB. But whenever I enable the mod and hit apply, the game crashes. Am I missing something?

 

This isn't the first mod i download and try to run. I've gotten the others to work no problem, so im sure my path i extracted too is fine.

 

Thanks.
