I will help you with entity files. I love freespace 2. I was a main developer for the freespace 2 mod in homeworld 2 by a different name. Feel free to add me to MSN at [email protected]
He is an extremely helpful person and deserves it. He went out of his way to help me learn a bit about sins modding so I could make my sins editor.
Gabriel, I really loved starlancer and I think it had some of the best capital ships around. I would love to see a mod that used starlancer ships with appropriate weapon balances. A freespace mod would also rule (slightly more ;P). Anyway, Mastiff is certainly right about the pricing. Caps in starlancer were very awesome; however, making them 150k creds is a bit much. Maybe think about doubling the price/resources and halving the supply from vanilla sins.
It's what Annatar gets a huge amount of.
It supports XP.
Im kinda durnk so i dunno i fi c an answer correctl but im using .NET Framework Version 3.5 HAPPY NCHRISTMAS MARREY NEWYEARS 'D
Annatar, Can you see three trees but only two trunks?
On a not completely unrelated note, whoever programmed the MessageBox(ex->Message) in that exception catch block for a NullReferenceException Please change it to something meaningful so people understand what the problem is instead of swarming your forums and mIRC asking about it over and over ;).
Very early alpha shots! Merry Christmas! Parsed file: http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/2962/sinseditor1wx3.jpg Menu shot: http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/306/sinseditor2ek8.jpg Sorry they are big, I was too lazy to crop them. I am very ti
When I get home I will test this to see if I get the dots as well. I think it's happening because it is trying to make the objects shiny. I notice it with asteroids.
Redbull, small already hyperactive children? I'm not seeing the problem here.
Well, with that then, I think I will close the beta testing. I have enough users now to get feedback, and I do not want to try to handle too much feedback at once. Thank you Evil and the rest who PMd me. -Ian
Cykur, The flak frigate won't be able to effectively penetrate any armor besides very light and light. I made them utterly useless against anything besides fighters (and bombers to an extent, but fighters do a better job against bombers) by changing the penetration values. The 30% increase does nothing besides making them more effective against fighters. Anyway, yeah, sorry for derailing the thread. That's enough out of me ;)
In the upcoming modification I am making I made flak slightly more effective :P (30% more effective to be exact).
So far I have one person who is willing to test the pre-release version for bugs and such before I release it. I want a few more testers. Anyone who is interested please message me, thanks! Oh and to update you all, I have the very basic coding done (obviously this includes the gui, but also the actual parsing of files). I will post a screenshot of what a file read into the editor will look like in a few days. -Ian
Oh, I in no way meant to say the way I am going to handle it is better than yours. It's just that I am doing the coding, thus I want to code in a way that is easiest for me. I chose things in a way that would make coding as easy as possible for me while still providing the features I said I would provide. Don't think I was belittling your idea or any thing like that.
This discussion has moved to https://forums.sinsofasolarempire.com/334117 Please use that thread :)
In an upcoming modification I am making, the effectiveness of spamming will be greatly reduced when the ships begin attacking types they are not meant to attack.
"Awesome. Thanks jjz-. Is there anything we can do to help you out on this?" Annatar has been helping me figure out a few things about the Sins file structure, since I have only been modding Sins for a few days. Just give feedback on the release when I put it up for download :) That would help me improve the next release. I plan to make 3 releases, assuming there are no bugs. EvilTesla, templating and such will be added in v1.2, so this will not be appli
"Will this be Entrenchment Compatible?" Assuming the format of the files remains unchanged, I am sure it will work. The program has no hardcoded value limits (besides the ceiling value on an integer, lol), thus any added parameters will be no problem. For the conversion between binary/text files for Entrenchment, I remember Annatar saying that there was one extra parameter taken by the ConvertData.exe. I will take this into account when coding the load/save feature. &n
For those of you who have been following, which are probably not many, I have started development of a editor for files contained in the Gameinfo directory. I have now decided to name it Sins Editor (Not Entity Forge, which is what I believe some people were expecting). I want to get a version out somewhat fast in order to get feedback on it, thus I will be releasing a v1.0 within 2 weeks that will NOT be feature complete. These are the features I am plan
No problem. A lucky guess!
I already made it a mod. And it took 8 minutes including the download :). It will be included in a mod that I am developing alongside my editor release. If I ever release it.
Sad at people trying to be witty yet failing English.
Ill slowly do the ability/buff/entity editor. But I don't program every day or that often, so I have absolutely no ETA on when I will be done.
