I'm making a quick announcement now, but I'll flesh it out later
some of you may have tried homeworld 2 and some of you may have played the Warlords mod for it. ( I know nearly 20 thousand or more people have)
In fact some of you may have played Rebellion and played Warlords for that... (some of you are old now)
I'm going to start making a total conversion of Galactic Civ II that will be the Strategic portion of Warlords (since Homeworld2 is tactical only)
The basic premise is that Warlords takes place during the Imperial Civil war 6-9 years after the movies. The first push will be to make the imperial faction avaialble with various warlords. the next step after that will be to introduce the New republic, and finally to flesh out various other factions.
As far as art work, I already have nearly 200 game ready star wars ships fully modeled and textured and that can be quickly converted for use in GCII (IE I can have a mod up and running with full 3d ships in less than a few weeks if I push it) for more references see Link
Hopefully with enough dev support we can recreate some or all of the functionality that was present in rebellion (characters, missions) along with expand the existing systems
the website for the mod will share the existing site for the Homeworld 2 mod (adding new sections soon)
I plan on making ship hulls like Tie fighters and corellian vessels entirely buildable (different wings, pods and weapons)
and some flexibility into Star destroyer designs for custom ships, the one issue currently is friagtes since they are rather standardized
rebel ships will have more room for expansion as things like mon cal cruisers are all unique and dreadnaughts and assault frigates are modified as well as ugly fighters.
as far as help, I really only need a few specific things right now
a artist for background images and graphics, most probably should be fully capable in 3d studio max or equivalent in making either action stills or movies, models will be provided
a modeller with experience in optimizing existing meshes and converting detail meshes to textures (again need experience here) I'm going to do it myself, but it's always nice to have help
someone willing to write gobs of in-universe text on different technologies and vessels and modify the XML accordingly, the basic tech tree is already outlined, If you can name all of the moffs in the EU off the top of your head (no looking on the internet) then you are probably the level of person I'm seeking
I am looking for significant dev support (hopefully in the form of an SDK) to flesh out a lot of different features. more later
