[quote]Oh, as I said earlier, she's pretty much too cool a ship not to use. I just think it's sad to see her get the crap kicked out of her by a D-7 (or even a D-4). If anything, she should be a notch above the Miranda in firepower and durability.[/quote] do i have to break out the numbers or we going to drop this already? and the olympic. everyone's stated there opinion already now lets to playing and modding and just chill that goes for everyone!

[quote who="FleetCommandCC" reply="25" id="2001834"] Quoting darkshimmer, reply 24 that one slipped by, it will be corrected in next patch! Great niceone General Mod Question. When you've converted a .txt file into a .entity file can it be coverted back to a .txt file? I'm only asking because I've tried a few way and it doesn't work. [/quote] we didn't convert any entity files to txt, you just tell windows to open

[quote who="FleetCommandCC" reply="23" id="2001813"] Quoting RAmenamen, reply 11 Okay, I just finished downloading 0.03a2 and the exelsior still has the original voice from the advent lady (who scares the crap out of me). Is anyone else having that problem? Yep I'm getting the same too. [/quote] that one slipped by, it will be corrected in next patch!

[quote who="ProgressBar" reply="5" id="2001445"]Still, from a programming perspective it seems ludicrous to link weapon damage to the null points on a mesh. They should only be used for effects. [/quote] has nothing to do with programming really, has everything to do with game design. The nulls in the mesh files split up the damage in the entity files. so if the carrier has 6 weapon nulls and the colony has only 1, your going to do more damage on that one. yo

[quote who="FleetCommandCC" reply="23" id="1999701"]Hey Major Stress Is it ok for me to modify some things in the GameInfo folder of your mod, I'm only because you said in your Readme file. ( Please do not modity any of the mod files without asking first. ) [/quote] if you feel that it will enhance an aspect of the mod that we can all enjoy, then go ahead. If not i would leave things alone. Please note that changing anything in the Gameinfo fo

[quote who="You-Cheng Hsieh" reply="7" id="1998308"]Hello, The Fek'lhr Class in your mod is a port of SFC3 model by Taldren Inc. And those textures are made by me. Please correct your credits on the readme and the dds texture. I would like to know why do you think it's made by "Cleeve aka C2Xtreme". Cleeve and C2Xtreme are two different person. As far as I know, Cleeve has quit game modding long time ago before I made those retextures and he

[quote]Well I dunno about the volume of naysayers you're getting Shimmer, but I think you did a heck of a job. I actually have a college degree in video game design, so I know what it takes to do proper balance, the work, the math, the testing, the refining of your figures, and I certainly don't envy you the job. Too many games get lazy and just make one side, draw different art for it and call it a second side. This mod didn't do that, it has sides that are actually different, and that makes

i spend the better part of the day today working out alot of issues. I am happy to say at least that in a 4 hour game i didn't get 1 bug report in developer mode, or a single pirate crash in a FFA 10 man slugfest. I used the rommies as my test bed and now that you mention it there could be a few less torps flying around. I'll make another adjustment. The new look and feel of the rommies firing there disruptors and more fluid movements are definately getting better. Once all the changes are fi

[quote who="Mavirikk" reply="19" id="1995559"] First, I want to say how great the mod is and how grateful my friends and I are for you and others taking the time to put this together. I realize it required a great deal of time and effort. It shows. We have spent many hours playing this mod and have more fun with this than vanilla sins. And some of my friends don't even like Star Trek. Thank you. Here are my (and my friends') two cents: We like the battles being

[quote who="yoadjla" reply="16" id="1995359"]OK! You definetly need to rebalance the weapons. Any ship is destroyed in seconds even caps. I suggest you either downsize the weapons or add MUCH more hull and shield points. [/quote] i believe i figured out the problem, somehow the stagger values got messed up and shadowed the old burst values, this was repeating the volley without first finishing the prev
