Haven’t checked in, in years but great to see a new version! For reasons, my PC was in storage for awhile but after dusting it off and plugging it in everything works great. I just picked up SOA2 again, and can’t wait to try out the new stuff! Well, new atleast to me!

Phenomenal work guys! thanks for the update!!

I'm stumped. I've tried to make it so that the federation frigate factory starts with the ability to repair ships by changing AbilityRepairPlatformPsi.entity originally it says: researchPrerequisites NumResearchPrerequisites 1 ResearchPrerequisite Subject "RESEARCHSUBJECT_PLANETMODULEACCESS_REPAIRPLATFORMFED" Level 1 RequiredFactionNameID "" RequiredCompletedResearchSubjects 0 i changed t

Hey guys, The mod is looking amazing! I haven't had a chance to play in awhile and the new changes are really incredible. Now that I have some time I wanted to get back into editing the mod and try making a more long form game. I talked about this awhile back and got a few things working, but things got pretty busy in real life so I didn't have the time to put into modding. I think i&#39

Thanks for the explanation. I have the npc's figured out, except for the HoD. I've set the ferengi/tamarian/sona so they are delayed but the HoD never seem to spawn and i'm not sure why. All i changed were the following values: HoD Re-attack Delay: BuffHoDSpawn1 D=4800 HVCanon=6400 BuffHoDSpawn2 D=6000 HVCanon=12000 BuffHoDSpawn3 D=12000 HVCanon=25000 <br

you guys rock lol

just changed my post to remove any tricks from escaping...but is it possible? [e digicons]:fuzzy:[/e]

*edit* i've removed the beginning post so no secrets escape. however...is it possible to slow down the frequency of the raids? I don't need to know how necessarily...just that it could be possible. i'll figure the rest out on my own. [e digicons]:fuzzy:[/e] The reason I'm wondering is because i'm trying to adjust the timing of when non-player factions attack, like the pirates, ferengi and HoD. &

Do you guys know if there is a way to have technologies pre-researched as part of the 'quick start'? I was trying to have excelsior ship technology unlocked from the get go, since I start off with an ambassador, it makes sense I would have access to the previous generations of ships too in a quick start game.

[quote who="SoA2Team" reply="4118" id="3376344"] Quoting bojangles9999, reply 4117Are you guys using different programs to edit the files, or am I just doing something wrong? Put the files you want to convert into the ConvertEntity folder, double Click BintoTXT.bat[/quote] awesome it works! thanks! will it break anything if i leave them as txt, or should I convert them back to bin's?

I've been encountering problem opening the new entity files for editing. The files from the previous version will open fine in notepad or notepad++ but the new files have all of these 'null' values and the formatting is gone as well. Are you guys using different programs to edit the files, or am I just doing something wrong? [e digicons]o_O[/e] edit: the gameplay.constants file opens normally and had all of the forma

Does any one know if there is a way to return to sose rebellion ver 1.1? I told steam NOT to update the game automatically, but it did any way and now I am stuck on 1.5 and do not know if the current version of the mod will work properly with rebellion 1.5 I'm usually a fan of steam, but this is a pretty lame bug to encounter especially when I perfer mods to the actual game.

You must have missed my previous post on 4/24 about the changes I have been working on where i said: "I won't release my modifications without permission from the official team, and if you guys would like to have a look at my 'long-form' mod I can give you a link to download it." --MyFist was interested in seeing what I came up with and offered to put a link on the page to download my changes if there was an interest them. &nbs

[quote who="Levelheaded" reply="3900" id="3355664"] Everythign dies way to fast in this mod. scouts barely make it past 2 systems, capitals die in medium sized battles even without being focus fired. System defenses are to easily outrangedm, starbases die like capitals. did you mess with shield mitigation? btw: titans? one would think the jemmy dread be a good ttian... being the freaking honking giant that it was

success! thanks!

I downloaded the map updater from this link: https://www.wincustomize.com/explore/sins_mods/161/download I extracted all 24 files from the zip file using 7zip to a folder on my desktop called "updater" I am running windows 7 pro 64 bit. When I run either the 'rebelmapupdater3.exe' or the 'sinsmapupdater3.exe' I encounter an error saying: --------------

Are the maps in rebellion smaller than in trinity? when I set up a random map, they don't seem to be as large as the old random's used to be.

If anyone is interested, I would like to set up a weekly game, for about an hour or two. My idea is to use one of the largest sins maps, random or player created and save the state of the game after the session for the following week. Maybe we could have a 'dm' type player as the borg, or just a really hard AI borg. Each of the factions would be controlled by a player, or we could have more than one person playing a faction, say 3 dominion players on a fairly allied

Thank you so much guys! Playing this mod over the years has been one of the most incredible trek/gaming experiences I have ever had. The new additions are brilliant! Thanks again for the hard work you all put into this, it really shows.

anyone up for a game? It would be great to play a 4 or 5 person game. It's just next to impossible to find anyone to join a game. any ideas?

what software packages would one need to make models/textures for this mod? I'm new at this sort of thing, but I love this mod so much I'd like to give a shot at learning how to this. If i'm successful, i'd gladly help with making models.

Since you guys were talking about planets when zooming out I figured i'd ask a question. When i zoom out all the way, i don't see any planets unless i hold the ALT key. Is this intentional, or is there a way to have Sins show the planets when zoomed out all the way automatically without holding down a key?

this mod is the tits! any one who wants to play pm me. my brother and i want to get a big game going.

I absolutely love this mod! anymore i can't even play the original game bc it just pales in comparison to soa2. i've just about played out the computer AI though, it's no longer a fulfilling challenger, but human players would add a whole new depth. does anyone organize group games? or, if not how about we get some huge games together? send me a pm if your interested. the AI just isn't cutting it anymore :|

I think I may have found a bug in the Federation antimatter refuel pod research for the ship factories. The description for the research says that the pods will recharge ships and orbital structures antimatter. Once researched the ability only recharges ships not structures. I'm not sure if it's just a type-o in the description, or if it actually is supposed to refuel orbital structures antimatter.
