I'm going to see about porting over the Empire later tonight. In a few days, we should have the Empire ported over, minus the HUD icons, etc. Oh, and the Empire's titan is modeled and textured, so we just have to do the voices and codes and it will be ready. EDIT: Why the hell is my avatar so tiny?
Looking at that list, I'm beginning to realize just how much cooperation there is among the various mods. Other than DoV, that is. Hal (or more) of the people on that list have either helped or have been helped by the members of the 7DS team.
Swiss, lay off. My fellow 7DS developers, stop feeding the troll. Now that that's out of the way, apparently I have to provide my own description... As 7DS' "Dr Frankenstein" of coding, I'm good at looking at already implemented code and fitting the pieces together in ways that makes other people (coughcanadamancough) wonder how I did it. When Duke Skymocker left, I took over the coding and development of the Empire in 7DS, and eventually took over as s
Wait a minute, Samaz gets a spot and I don't? No fair, he went mia for about six months while I was working on 7DS with Dan! *mutters angrily* Also, can we try to keep this civil, boys? Swiss, I know you hate our guts, but can you at least refrain from posting it in just about every thread that even mentions 7DS?
I might be able to make it through research right now by giving research stations an ability that broadcasts the buff to all planets, but I'm not entirely sure how well it would work. If it DOES work, though, it would remove the need for an ability on every ship.
Uhh... Can someone remind me why we switched from having a passive Impenetrable shields to the active Force Onslaught? Imp. Shields was practically foolproof, other than the "Don't put ability points in here" bug.
Hey, I finally remembered my password! Anyways... For those that don't know me, I'm the second in command of 7DS. Dan is still in charge, and I guess you could say Samaz is third in command / MY right hand man. (Just clearing up any hierarchal confusion that may have been caused.) You guys are gonna love the new and improved capitals for the TCA and Empire. The Empire finally has a titan, and the TCA got a ship that may seem fairly familiar to some of
We removed the Advent and the Vasari because they were getting destroyed by everything else. The TEC was redone and made into an economical beast, so we added them back in. As for bug reports, you can always post them on our forums .
Haha, we're pretty much in a coma. Forum got taken back by a few months when we switched servers, so the new mod teams have no posts in the forums. As far as I can tell, the Empire is the only thing that's being developed out of all the mod teams that aren't manned by Danman, and for now the Empire team is just me and Thoumsin.
I don't usually get minidumps (vista) unless I'm using Dev.exe to test some new codes for 7DS, so I don't think we can blame this on vista, much as I would have loved to.
Yeah, I preferred Sri-Corp. Anyways, I kinda expected your "This is meant for later games" bit, seeing as you do that with the majority of your models. [e digicons]:P[/e] Right now I have only one request of you: Will you make the part at the end of the door-arm a massive cannon? I have some... Ideas as to what I'm going to use it for. Awesome model so far File. Keep up the incredible work.
Ok, for some reason it won't let me edit my post. Ok File, that looks awesome, but I have ONE problem with it. The moving part. As you are well aware, sins doesn't support moving parts, however you can get around that by using particle effects to achieve the same goal. I don't know if you can particle forge, and if you can't let me know so I can give Dodonado a heads up that I might need him.
Felkins, in case you don't know me, I'm the guy in charge of the Empire at 7DS (as well as future SW races if we decide to add them). To answer your question, yes, we do have a lot of Eville's stuff in the mod. Not codes, seeing as his mod is a different style than ours, but most of our models are from his mod. We have a long-standing open agreement, so 7DS can use anything in his mod. Personally, I'm reciprocating that, so if he wants anything from the Empire he can f
Hmm... Maybe an old trick from Empire at War will work... Try setting the cooldown to -1. That's how we gave ships invulnerability. It'll probably cause a minidump, but it might be worth a try.
About hardcodes: I don't think there's a single member on the team who hasn't wanted to strangle someone because of them. I know it's annoying having to watch Fileosoft (thoumsin)'s, Kyogre's, Makon, my, and a few other's models be delayed from incorporation because of the hardcodes. And the Vanilla races get a bit boring. I mean, they're vanilla. Plain. Flat. Boring. Whereas the Steamrolling Empire, Research-Crazy Atlantians, the Ster
I know a texturer, and I'm trying to get him to join, but he's lazy as hell. Honestly, this guy's fairly good. He can do a bit of everything. Modelling, UV, texture, etc. Unfortunately he's more of the "watch other people do it and play the result" type of person. Oh, but he doesn't use XSI, can't remember what he uses...
