[quote who="Lavo_2" reply="1328" id="3221112"]He means that Rebellion introduced an additional level for abilities; previously in Trinity abilities maxed out at 3 levels, in Rebellion this has been increased to 4.[/quote] It did occur to me after my initial reply, it just seemed like an unlikely request ... if the original races will use the ability I would consider it, otherwise you would create some large in-balances
Not quite sure of the question? The Dreads have a 4th ability - superdreadnoughts.
[quote who="XATHOS" reply="1322" id="3220561"]I'll let you know if you did good after I go through the customary research and ship balancing. I never could understand why you intend on giving all the new races as much research as possible. They don't need it and it screws with the balancing of the game.[/quote] Thanks, would appreciate feedback. With regards the game imbalance ... the first mod that I played was 7DS, to really understand and appreciate game imbalance you just

For those who are interested, the second release of Maelstrom is available ... see link above Highlights Rebellion (Release 2) 04/09/2012 - added Norlamin race with Loyalist and Rebel Factions - reduced Dreadnought, firepower and shield/hull regeneration rates. Also reduced number of strike craft - reduced 'strength' Super-Dreadnought ability - reduced the rate Dreadnoughts are produced - compatible now with Rebellion 1.04 - taken out abili
I've uploaded R2 which includes the Norlamins. I will release it in a day or so. With the additional content in Rebellion each race takes quite a lot of work to get right. So at this stage I would say it takes about one month per race.
[quote who="thefinalfrontier" reply="1311" id="3213592"]To all of you dedicated Modders. Thank You. Very rarely has a game this good been created. Thus, rarer still is it that players input is used to advance thte direction of the game in real time (rt = day to day progress that is accesible). Most amazing is the dedication and professionalism that you prove that you have in every detail that is this game. I have had my sins games for years. However I decided to go online for the first time e

[quote who="Sinperium" reply="1301" id="3210207"]Really nice job Mr. Maelstrom (played three games so far). I'm so tempted to suggest dreadnaughts become the specialty anti-titan ship but that's probably not balanced. It still would be a perfect role for them.[/quote] Yes the Dreadnoughts ... I initially included them to go against starbases ... but anti-titans is a thought. They as still a little bit too punchy currently ... I agree with Malanthor
[quote who="ElPatje" reply="1300" id="3210169"]Tried re-installing, redownloaded.. nothing seems to help. Or was the rebellion version not meant to have the other races?[/quote] R1 has most everything but the new races ... working on them now. I will release races one at a time.
You have to patch Diplomacy online via GameStop or Steam, if you downloaded Sins digitally. If not you have to register with one of them ... so you can patch Diplomacy to v1.34
[quote who="nariat" reply="1294" id="3207663"]I've been playing with the Rebellion release, fantastic mod. I have just one question, the main planet in the binary system is missing half the northern and southern hemisphere textures? No other glitches are present.[/quote] Thanks for letting me know ... its a mesh issue
Get the right patch for Diplomacy (i.e the latest patch v1.34) ... as stated in several places ... its even included within the name of the zip file you downloaded.

Hi chilly06, I think you will find that Rebellion like its ancestors has game lag issues under certain combinations of play. A sample space of one game doesn't really indicate a problem with the mod. Consider the following ... Game slowdown is mostly caused by the number of units in play. Mines, trade/refinery ships, fighters are known to cause problems in large numbers. I believe you have found a combination of players and a scenario which is heavily loading the CPU.
[quote who="adwance" reply="1277" id="3206276"]Downloaded and extracted with winrar. Put into the mods folder. when i activate it nothing happens[/quote] Make sure that winrar has not created an additional sub-directory i.e two "Maelstrom Rebellion R1", one inside the other. If it has the need to copy the 'lowest' directory (i.e sub-directory) to your mod folder.
