What about the Titan Foundry?

You know considering how much resources went into building the Cylon Old Basestar since they were ment for planetary invasion and utter destruction, they also were the downfall of the Clyons since there so many compared to colonial fleet maybe the Old Basestar could be considered a Cylon Titan?

Hey Z. I've finished planning out the research trees for both Rebel and Loyalist. I'll start writing up the descriptions for them now if you like. I've even found a few image icons to use (although they would need to be edited to 'fit' with the image types used in Sins)

Hmm.. and what would we use the Boomer Titan for? In the first Cylon war, the Hades MkII (or Old Basestars), were used as the primary attack ship for the Cylons, and they were numerous. A Titan is a unique ship. 

It is also an old design, not modern and would probably only be used by the Cylons in special circumstances. 

I don't like the idea of using the Hades style basestars for titans. We have our two titans and won't be adding any others.

ok, so I am drying to take the mod out of my game but once I get the game back to origonal it mini dumps and reinstalls the SOTF how can I fix this?

the reasin for doing this is I am not getting all the phase lanes and traped with like three planets.

delete your enabledmods.txt

ok thanks

Great mod keep up the good work. I enjoy playing with my friends and really do think this mod is well put together. I have one question it seems like every time i play for more than a hour it crashes to desktop for a unknown reason. Is it because of a problem with the mod or just the game exceeding its point?

Could be either. Does it work fine for a while again when reloading from an autosave?

I reload a autosave it works for a bit then crashes to the desktop. I have tried running only 3 races and it still crashes.

If you can't pinpoint it to memory (i.e. your ram is around ~1.7+ gig) then it gets difficult to track down unless you get lucky and can identify what you or the AI is doing when the crash occurs.

I say ~1.7gig on a memory dump because the game becomes unstable as it reaches 2gig on some systems. I have a 8gig windows 7/64bit system that mini-dumps consistently around this size even un-modded.

If you think it may be memory check your ram utilization when it dumps by opening the Windows Task Manager and checking the Memory utilization for sins.

Wish I could say more, but the mods development is in progress and tracking down mini-dumps on abilities is infinitely frustrating (we(modders) can't do anything with the dump files).

I'm glad you like the mod content, I think it's really good too and will get better with Cylon_Luvr's cylon love. Hopefully we can stabilize up any of the stability issues unrelated to memory this year.

 SotF: Fall of Kobol SVN Instructions 

Public Test SVN updated (trunk version 148).

Colonials - Balanced Colonial Corvettes a bit

Rogue - Lots of stuff, new Titans, new Corvettes, new Research

Hypercorp - WIP, a couple of titan concepts (not sure if they will stay), titan abilities based off E4x hero abilities (used with permission)

Developer's SVN version updated (trunk version 87).

Hello again,

i did some investigating with memory and everything seemed normal and i only played using the Colonials and TEC ran fine all the way to end game. I later added the cylons and near around the 45min mark it would crash to desktop everything regardless of save type.

Well, that's not real good as the Cylons aren't heavily modded. 

Sorry Z..... have been super busy with RL stuff.... should get it to you soon though. 

Sure thing, take your time. Don't worry about it being perfect though...

This what I load each time I play on Rebellion and five minutes in it minidumps, what's wrong?

Try restarting sins after activating the mod. 

Basically there appears to be some modded file(s) not loading properly after initial activation. I have this problem with Soa2 also.

Ok... time for some Cylon love!! 

Z, I'm releasing the first research tree for Cylon "Hand of God" (Combat tree). At least this will let you start working on the Cylons without having to wait for my other stuff. I've put a lot of work into it, so hopefully this makes your job heaps easier! 

Please download the following zip file, which contains: 

1. Hand of God (Combat tree). You will find each of the sub-trees ("Model Projections", "Model Subsystems","Viruses and Infiltration") as tabbed worksheets down the bottom of the Excel spreadsheet. Layout of the spreadsheet is pretty straightforward... if you continue to read across you will see how research items progress across the tree i.e. what research is required to unlock the next item. I've provided some images in there as well to help you out. All research items have detailed research descriptions. 

2. Fleet Logistics names (Capital ship slots and fleet capacity) 

3. Cylon ship descriptions (frigates, cruisers, capital ships, titans)

http://www.gamefront.com/files/22910661/CylonResearch1.zip

General notes to be read in conjunction with the attached files: 

• All images for ships and structures need to be redone
• Capital ships built in the capital ship factory are off-centre i.e. they dont appear to be build directly in the middle of the factory
• Light Basestar textures are off (when built, it is 100% the same colour as the faction… Looks odd)
• Songs that I provided need to be integrated for Cylon
• Resurrection ship icons need to be fixed (in-game window etc and build icon)
• Light resurrection ship in-game window icons need to be fixed
• Hanger Defense should also act as a missile platform
• Cylons do not start generating Credits from game start as they do not generate credits from Taxation (and population of planets will not move from 0 unless research is conducted). The Rebel faction will eventually develop biological reproduction to generate credits, Loyalists will generate their credits through system hacking and trade. To compensate for 0 credits at game start, they will generate 4 or 5 points of metal and crystal per respective asteroid, per second. They can sell this on the black market to generate credits. Ships are also cheaper.
• Cylon Loyalist to be given The Colony. Cylon Rebel to be given Boomer.
• Hades Mk II Basestar (old school Basestar) replaces Guardian Mk I Capital for Cylon Loyalist faction. Rebels get Guardian Mk I
• If the Resurrection Hub is destroyed, the Resurrection Ships (light and capital class) lose their Resurrection abilities.
• Load image of a Centurion in the player selection menu/in-game player profile instead of having all images as humanoid models

I'll provide the next research tree shortly. Thanks Z - hope this helps out. 

Forgot to mention... the Combat tree above is the same for both Loyalist and Rebel. The tree's will be slightly different for Empire and Diplomacy tree's (Defense tree will also be the same for both)

Hey Cylon_Luvr

Wow man, you've done a great job on the combat tree!! Looks really good! 

Hey Koobalt - did you finish the Trade Port? 

yes the model is finish and segmentation and uv is already done. Just need to make some texture, maybe in this week when i have less work i will do this.

@Cylon_Luvr 

I've read through most of the documentation and your notes. Looks like good stuff. Work and real life are a bit hectic right now, but I do plan to work on the changes when I can.
