SINS will go green! We will have entire ecosystems... ...Including Space Whales!!! [img]http://static1.filefront.com/images/personal/h/helioforge/141275/ysmkeuzpxu.jpg[/img] This is my prediction... Prophecy-Destiny-Legacy-Legend-Myth-Evolution
Just a week and version 3 is out... ...with Space Whales! [link="http://files.filefront.com/Confluence+Militia+3zip/;10781596;/fileinfo.html"]WWW Link[/link] I just couldn't resist once I found out I could convert SINS shield meshes into whales, and have them flying around in asteroid belts...

Here are the space whales in my mod :) (shameless plug) :D [link="http://files.filefront.com/Confluence+Militia+3zip/;10781596;/fileinfo.html"]WWW Link[/link] I knew the shield meshes would be useful for something...
In the Beta version, the storyline was all about the Vasari being given birthright to all the territories in the universe (or something like that) I think the developers just watched too much Stargate and went on a crusade against the False Gods of the universe :) :D
If you modify the code and reload a saved game, not all the stats will transfer over, and the ones that do will sometimes not work properly... So if you modify the game AFTER saving, then that saved game will be somewhat unpredictable... I used to do that, but I noticed it wasn't transferring my abilities over, so I reprogrammed the GalaxyScenarioDef to give me a mid-game level of ships, so that I could test it faster (also the developer version of SINS is good for this)
I had the opposite problem once, I took over everything but an asteroid, but the game gave me victory having not taken it (it was upgraded, so it wasn't a problem with insufficient credits, and the AI NEVER use all their resources!)
Oh... and the secret to winning as TECH is to take planets fast and KEEP taking them! Don't bother stopping at choke-points, just use them as pivot-points! Just pack your outer planets full of defenses to scare away the AI players)... The constant attacking will gain you allies pretty fast, and when you have half the galaxy to yourself, park your fleets on their homeworlds send your allies to attack the pirate base in the center where they will wipe each other out! Then
If I could play multiplayer SINS, I'd play EVE online instead!!!
When you look up and see you have a few thousand extra credits and realize you forgot to build them yet!!!
They were doing an homage to that ancient movie "Planet of the Apes" :) :D ...where they were on the shoreline, standing in front of a destroyed Satatue of Liberty, with that dead NRA guy saying "You really did it... ...you destroyed it... ...damn you all to hell" As always, the new Galactica series is both current and socially relevant, and they were poking at the Human tendency to segregate it's population for the mere selfish comfort of one collection of individual
thats not the BIG stargate mod, just a fix to make the stargate "Ancients" have proper weapons, etc...
OOPS, triple posting not on purpose, sorry...

Yes, go through this forum and look for all the threads that start or end in [MOD] Someone should go through all the posts and make a consolidated MOD DOWNLOADING thread, so we can go there and get a lot of them at once from one place...
(Of course you couldn't understand it (it was in German), just kidding :) :D ) seriously though, if you wanted to make more labels, you could use those web translators and such (but you already know where they are, and see how useful they really are :) :D Anyway, since SINS has versions of itself for many languages, then maybe the string files could be matched up as a translator (or you could just load in a different language and get a crash course in that language :) :D<b

I had another look in the Mesh folder just for the fun of it and found a Tech-repair-ship I overlooked the first time (and it was just what I was looking for (thanks for making me look again :) :D
Can you make an entirely NEW PAGE to the research section, because you could then make more trees on a separate screen...
Get the 1.05 Text files for modding, and read through all the program files that sound interesting (start in the GameInfo folder, and have a quick look through) After that, put the 1.05 text files into the modding folder, make a copy and start messing around with them. Also, Don't be discouraged by a hundred minidumps or so, just delete your mistakes and restart (all the files are SPACING SENSITIVE, so keep a backup of the originals) Finally, UNDER NO CIRCOMST
Do you want the game to come to completion in less "Game Time", or are you trying to get more frames per second??? If the answer is "Less Game Time to Victory", then cut in half all defenses (shields, hull, armor) and double all weapons power, firing rates, and antimatter restore rates... ...you will soon be cutting through enemy fleets (and they will be doing the same to you, Do'h!!! :NOTSURE: You can give more ships Siege powers and Colonize abilities, this shou
