Sure did... I can get it to work for missile weapons and lasers... but not for beam weapons? Weird... It must be a problem with the code itself. Maybe I could send the buff file to you and you can run it through your program to see what the error is?

[quote who="ZombiesRus5" reply="4" id="3595063"] I was able to get a working prototype of this put together. Here's the buff code. You'd need to setup your timing, weapon effects and what the weapon should do. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5790092/Temp/ArtifactWeaponPrototype.7z [/quote] I couldn't get this to work Z.

[quote who="ZombiesRus5" reply="2" id="3594931"] You can't do a normal ability because artifacts don't attach abilities, they attach buffs. The buff would need to do a periodicAction probably using ApplyBuffToTargetsInRadius. The target would then need to cast a buff back to the calling unit which would then create another Buff to create the weapon effect back to the last unit. These are done with ApplyBuffToLastSpawnerNoFilterNoRange and ApplyBuffToLast

Hi everyone. I'm not sure if you're familiar with ZombiesRus5's alien artifacts... they are objects in the game that can be "captured" and then "attached" to a selected capital ship which improves the ship i.e. more armor, hull points etc. I would like to create a capturable alien artifact in the game (using Zombie's premise, I already have the mesh), that can add an additional weapon to the selected ship? i.e a wave cannon or

[quote who="ZombiesRus5" reply="2634" id="3592634"] I'm cool with using it... Was just curious how the lore was described so I could add it in fully. Any other artifacty changes you make I'm open to as well. Here's some draft Artifacts I've also added as well as bumping their spawn percents some both for testing and playthrough.

I'm hoping that someone might be able to build a model for me... A capital ship model. I understand that this takes time, and I'm willing to pay $$ for this to happen. Get in touch with me if you're interested and if you are a skilled model developer.

[quote who="Cavil_Volente" reply="2617" id="3577238"] Cylon_Luvr, The So13t Raider model Z posted has a strong mesh-only resemblance to an unused Raider-concept-later-potential-probe model from the series (iffy sources on that, though). I thought it'd be cool as an ability-based unit or an auxiliary strikecraft, being why I suggested it at all. If not this design specifically, I'm still interested in seeing the unseen Cylon Probe fleshed out... <div cl

I have an idea. I really like the concept of the alien artifacts... but I have always thought there was more potential with them. When you capture an Alien Carrier or Battleship and click on the ship, there is an icon in the ships menu that says "Alien Artifact" with the description "An alien artifact containing unknown secrets yet to be discovered" What if this "secret" was one of the following (i'm not even sure if these are possible in the game mechanics):</

[quote who="SpardaSon21" reply="2603" id="3574574"] There's no effect because according to the game code the BSG races already have working shields, just at a fraction of 1. I haven't looked at the .entity files, but I'd assume they have renderShields set to FALSE so you don't get shield impact FX on what is supposed to be gameplay-wise a shieldless vessel. And no, there's no way to tie the shield being rendered to a research subject, which is what all art
