i love the siege frigate, thats exactly how i picture a siege spaceship.....looking like the entire craft was built around a cannon. what are your plans for the structures?

Reply to Modders I need your input in Sins Modding Sins Forums

not expected it in the next release but changing it so that only files that have been altered need to be added to the mods folder (same as the texture files). Maybe having seperate race/unit/warfare/empire-research sub folders in which most of the files to do with that unit/etc are placed (would be great for adding new units [or even a new race] and finding exactly what file you need). the note feature mentioned above would also be a great addition. and yes Uzii i completely ag

even if you never manage to finish the whole race please upload the ships you have done as one off downloads. they look great so far and i think they'd be very popular. good job :CONGRAT:

do you think it might be useful to rename and sticky this post (- the ? :)). i'm sure there is a lot of people looking for this kind of info and it would be useful to concentrate the tutorials/questions in one place. what d'ya think?

first off the most basic sins model questions answered all in one tutorial such as: 1. can you open/edit the in game ships and give them more emitters, resize/scale them etc... and what programs are required to do that. (step by step would be great). 2. what standard formats can be imported into the game without having to go through various converters? 3. A list of requirements for a new ship model to work in game (e.g texture/mesh/weapon/projectile/race/research/UI/HU

new skills :) funny i was just thinking the same thing. hopefully ill have a nice mod post of my own pretty soon (got a week off work and one of my plans is to learn how to open/edit the models). with a community like this i know that anytime i get stuck ive got a huge knowledge base just a forum post away :). love the work you guys are doing and can't wait to see the finished products.

Reply to Whats the Point in the Downloads Section? in Sins Modding Sins Forums

i check the forum often and didnt know about the 5 day wait. i think u guys are right when you say its too long for a game which will be as heavily modded as sins. guess its back to my usual obvlion/SC/total war tactic of scrolling the forums everyday. ah well :) im prepared to make that sacrifice.....oh and great job on the new mods UZII.

Whats the Point in the Downloads Section? in Sins Modding Sins Forums

are there heavy restictions on what can be uploaded or are the community just not using it? i keep seeing posts which link to external sites to download the mods. wouldnt they get more attention and better serve everyone by posting it on the main downloads site? any reason y this might not happen? i just really want want to miss any major mods that are coming up cause of the stupid site SD picked to host their mods section.

hey can you guys add a status field to this thread to we can view progress on the mods and find out release date. cheers

Reply to First To Mod? in Sins Modding Sins Forums

where i can find these extra ships? i thought as SD provides this site for uploading it would have been done by now. i love single ship addons rather than a whole package or total conversion. however i normally download the TC's and pick and choose the parts i like.

hey SD, checked out the mod tools last night and the tutorial is great as is the whole package. so glad you guys took the time out for us. but i have small issue: WHY DIDN'T YOU POST IN HUGE LETTERS ON THE MAIN SITE HOMEPAGE THAT THESE TOOLS WERE OUT? i mean come on! i lost a whole 3hrs or modding time because of that :). but seriously you guys are doing great work and i hope to see some more tools and options to mod built into future patches....which i already know they wi

Reply to Let us know what you'd like in v1.03 in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

true ive not read the entire 5 pages. i see most of my concerns are already noted. 1)choose the lead ship in a fleet but also toggle ur flagship....maybe a reward or bounty can be placed/autoplaced on a flagship for extra bonuses. set a timer or make it so the ship can't be changed in combat. (not sure about a combat bonus for flagships....maybe a culture increase for the planet the ship is in orbit around) 2)being able to ask (ha! bribe) the pirates for intel on star systems

noticed the wormholes don't allow you to travel between stars....isn't that the whole point of wormholes? maybe i'm doing something wrong but cant make a phase line between them. any help/mod info would be good. making it easier to assign an artifact/bonus to a specific planet....and for the mod tools the ability to assign as many squads of fighters/bombers to a ship as i want. thanks P.S awesome game......can't wait for the mod tools :)

A Few Questions: 1. any news on more direct negotiation with the pirates/rebels/militia? what were the main aspects (you chose to alter) of negotiation that were a problem in beta 4 (and other games)? 2. i love huge maps. whats the max number of planets we can expect to see in the final release? does it number in 100's? 3. what kind of graphics enhancement will we see? example surface damage to planets/atmosphere, damage to ships etc.. 4. in terms of modding h

[font="arial,helvetica,sans-serif"]Someone may have mentioned this I haven’t read the entire 5 pages of comments. Terran, Protoss, Zerg anyone? I think Starcraft created completely different play styles and has yet to be matched by any other game to date. I would hope to see something similar in Sins. It’s a very basic formula Terran: adaptable, colonise anywhere, relatively balanced units able to hold their own in most situations. Protoss: very few expensive
