Well the mod team (I'm just a good friend lol) have decdied to base what weapons the ships have off the rule book, so if a class of a cruiser doesn't have a lance in the rule book, it doesn't have lances ingame. But yes those little turret things on the top of the Retribution are lances, and lances will sometimes be on the side of the ship where weapons batteries are, and they (again) look like little turrets [img]http://www.games-workshop.com/MEDIA_CustomProductCatalog
Yes, sadly enough this mod is for entrenchment only (although Sins without mods is pretty fun too). Entrenchment is certainly worth it if you want the mod and like Sin's gameplay since it adds alot (like starbases and mines)
I think that Tau or Necrons are next, but I don't think they've really decided yet :P And they have some models for both of those fatoins, that's why they'd be next up
I think you should be able to rebuild them if they get destroyed O_o\ See: <embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/6V8e36QKTi0&hl=en&fs=1&"
Double posting for the sake of bumping. X sent me the link but didn't bother updating the thread it looks like http://www.filefront.com/14037201/BFG Very smexy guys! I think that the Ramilies should be bigger, but idunno. What do the other non dev team people think? <img src="http://img43.imageshack.us/img43/8074/sinsofasolarempireentre.png" alt="" width=
On last question before I buy a tutorial (I decied I should). Should I get the v6.5 or the v7 tutorial? Isn't the mod tool based off the v7? Thanks for getting me started though Mansh00ter [e digicons]:D[/e]
[quote]Intro to XSI 6 is a good product, considering it explains pretty much every use of the program and you have more than seven hours worth of stuff to go through... the snag is that it really shines if you have the full version of XSI, not the mod tool. [/quote] Well I don't have $3000. Although I do have utorrent >.> :P I'm kidding but autodesk stuff is all stupid commercial liscences so its all too expensive :|
Whens it gonna come oooooout [e digicons]:pout:[/e] Also is that intro to XSI 6 DVD set thats $50 (on the digital tutorials page) really really good? Or is there a free one that's about the same out there?
Well if you look at sins, clans have sort of died, but modding is still very strong. But iunno, demigod is a different game Plus modding in your own demigods would be nice.
Back from Dublin. I got some models at the Gamesworkshop there (yay). I got an assault terminator squad, the new Vanguards, a tactical squad and some devastators. I'll try to get a better trailer out by next week, I'll wait to start it until the next patch. And I say try to get it out by next week because I might be too distracted by my new models :)
Made a mockish trailer. Sorta bad/ rushed since I'm going to Ireland tomorrow. I'll do a better one when I get back. HD should be up soon <embed type="application/x-shockwav
So do you use Zbrush just to slap skins on or to model too (that seems more for actual artists, like with digital pen thingers and stuff, not for mouse and keyboard). Stinks that those XSI tutorials aren't free... and it's 6 hours for the first set of tutorials lol :P Good to hear its almost done. Stink I'm leaving for Ireland and won't be back till the 7th ish of July. Uh I hate flying
Hull upgrades hull upgrades hull upgrades... if you don't change the way the current system (things explode too fast). You could always lower ranges rather than increase gravity well sizes, but hey thats up to you. And yes, planet defenses should really be a major part of this game, but starbases being few and far between, unlike Entrenchment. Maybe you should have a cap on those too, sort of like Captial ship crews.
Thank god. I think many of us have been waiting the full year for this mod to come out! I really wish I new how to model... or model like that... What sotfware / tutorial sites do you use? I've been looking to start to learn how to model :P
