Well i have 11 hull styles... Only problem is you can not select a new one in game

i think thats what he means?! though it should be an easy fix for stardock - seems like more than six styles is implemented everywhere except the user interface

and yo star adder, i still like your portraits even if spaxspore doesnt

He doesn't?! How DARE he..!!!

Thanx. I just felt I needed to make contribution. Although it's rather small compared to what Vorlone, Coplann, rav and spax are doing.

edit:
Comes Dark Avatar an idea could be to make "The Hand" be the new dark superforce.
And the perfect race pic would of course be one of Maradona.

Hey I've got a quick question. I started a game using the first version of the B5 mod. Which is terrific BTW! Can I continue my current game using the new version 0.2 or do I have to start a new game to use the new version?

Thanks!

Rav i got suggestion to tech tree.Let all younger races have armor as option.Only Vorlon and Shadows would be using organic technology tech tree and minbari partally.
Shields should be veeeery expensive and only availble to Abbai at start.
I am starting to ramble now...many thought but hard to put them down anyway entire new approach to weapons and defense tech if keeping true to babylon 5.Plasma and proton guns,lasers are defenetly there and seems one of most powerfull in the game..seems quite exotic.
Also i have been reading that Brakiri use some gravitionic weapons and defense technology.After seing your mod i have been watching series all over again and have been reading about different ships and technology on the nett.Hmmm,have to look around more...does anyone has any proposals about Babylon 5 techtree?To keep it true to the Babylon 5 universe and make it work acually?

Well adder here is my reasoning for change in avatars.

1. Deleen with hair (not right for minbari, espeically if there are the leader of thier power in game they should be BALD! )
2.Londo looks like a wasted drunk, and the pic is low quality, ive always seen to me that the centuri as a respected and proud race
3.G'kar avatar is not G'kar but the war leader from ep 2x22
4.I didnt like the background on the KOSH pic, also was low quality



But other then that, the rest r fine

BTW i still love your logos

Star Adder/Rav's avatars

You the user pic which one u like better, ive just given you another option

maybe we could also have President Clark / Santiago, Shai Alyt Neroon and Dukhat and Emperor Cartagia / Turhan as alternatice race pics.

I catched a lil infection and am on antibiotics which make me feel rather tired (ZzzzZZZzzzzZ) these days. thats why I didnt release more ships until now. As soon as I feel like it again I will continue to work on it though, just for your interest. ^^

peace,
cop

I will continue to work on it

sweet, Coplann

from what i remember of ships in the series the easiest race to add next would be evil humans (make the current ones b5 isa goodies and the new ones president clark led shadow-hybrid-omega packing badasses)

really like the idea of drastic changes to the weapon and defense techs, less techs but more distinct. drive techs would be easy to find b5 content for too. just mho but the social stuff should probably be left alone to not mess with the ai too much?

I was thinking that we should have separate factions for the B5 ppl and the Earth Alliance, as and option, so people could play AGAINST EA and still play Sheridan.

my .o2 bab credits,
Star Dagger

I want Bester and the Psi Corp to show up.

EEEK, i totally missed that the sound for b5 starbase clip was completly wrong.

I must have converted the wrong file. Anyhow the fix (only 4mb) is on my final thread. Grab it!

Well adder here is my reasoning for change in avatars.

1. Delenn with hair (not right for minbari, especially if they are the leader of their power in game they should be BALD! )
2. Londo looks like a wasted drunk, and the pic is low quality, I've always seen to me that the centauri as a respected and proud race
3. G'kar avatar is not G'kar but the war leader from ep 2x22
4. I didnt like the background on the KOSH pic, also was low quality

Heh, saw the winking smiley behind my comment? I'm quite fine with that you found better avatars.

BUT:

1. My avatar pack didn't include Delenn with hair. It had Neroon in it instead.
2. I just love that pic.
3. MY G'Kar avatar actually IS G'Kar. Dunno where this pic from the Narn Ship Captain comes from but definitely not from me.
4. No prob.
5. I love that pic of Morden. Whoever has added it has excellent taste.

1. neroon was never the leader of the minbari, he wasnt even part of the grey consel. Deleen was the chosen of dukat to replace him
3.havnt seen your pic just rav8s
5.I agree

/clap, clap/

Very nice work!

And I ordered the complete Babylon 5 (season 1-5) from Amazon two days ago!! A bit of a coinsidence. My guess is that I will be severely ínto seeing Bab 5-space for a time.

(I've seen the whole series some time ago and loved it. Two days ago I decided I wanted to watch some sf-series with HIGH quality...)

Morden was me - remembered that scene well so it was easy to find and capture. Also did screen captures for delenn and some of the minors but it got really frustrating trying to get shots of them looking at the camera. Been scouring the net and think I've gathered enough pics now for a high quality and consistent approach to portraits in 0.3 (whenever that may be! ).

Anyway, they're not the highest priority *braces for backlash* so this weekend I'm going to get stuck in to the tech tree. Some easy things I'll be doing are weapons, defence and engines. Will experiment with the ethical alignments and generally try ideas that make the tree more about quality than quantity. Logistics is something that I want to get in to also but I would like to know what people think before I start. Going to play with making the hull logistic points more specific to individual b5 hulls - which will also make races more unique.

Hope everyone is enjoying 0.2! Massive credits to the model importers - Coplann, Vorlone and Robalis.

Spaxspore.

Neroon replaced Delenn on the Gray Council episode: All alone in the night. Second season 11th episode. This is what upsets the balance of the council.

There is one thing I find odd in this Mod.
If I'm not mistaken tha Nova is a Dreadnought while the Warlock is a Destroyer. Why then is the Warlock a huge build while the Nova is only a large one?

I'm having a problem with the Media Pack. The new files for the intro, space station and so forth are working. However, the portraits did not get updated and when I communicate with the other civs I do not get the video, just their static portrait. Anyone else having a problem?

I extracted the folder just like in the readme file. Did I do something wrong?

Am figuring this is pre Shadow War, Pre s2.

I set the portraits to reflect prewar narn prewar centuari.

If u rember during s2, narn is takin over and g'kar becomes citzen g'kar since his goverment no longer exists.

So yes naroon was there in s2, but this is before the events that happened in s2. Thus Delen (in true minbari form) is there

Did you replace the RaceConfig.xml, the RaceConfig.xml is VERY improtant, it tells the game where to find the clips.

So make sure u replace the b5 .02 RaceConfig.xml with the one included in my media pack. Make sure You get the final media pack, and the starbase fix.

so replace the one located

\program files\Stardock\TotalGaming\GalCiv2\Mods\Babylon5-02\Data

with the one included in my rar

Let me know if got it workin/didnt get it to work

Yep. I have.
I get Delenn with Hair as static pic during trade sessions and this Narn Captain too WITH
RaceConfig being replaced.

Hi Spaxsore,

Thanks for the reply. I did do as you suggested and it still did not work. What I went ahead and did was copied the files into both the stardock\totalgaming folder and mydocuments\mygames folder. That did the trick. Great media packs by the way. Thanks!

OK, thankx, i forgot that thier might be one is mydoc folder,

star adder try that


and try del racename.raceconfig files in your mydoc dir

Ok i had several ideas for weapon and defense tech.But i would say just what was my impression from the series,not maybe best info :/ .I found site on nett,maybe most of know...it has quite a much information.Anyway quick google on Babylon 5 weapons and voila...

I can look for more,anyway Rav,you should defenetly check it out,might give you idea on weapons and defenses...

As much as I hate to quote such a stupid movie as Episode I but:
It's working, it's woorking...!
Cheers mates.

Looks great Spax. Especially since the static trade pic of Londo's was always making me laugh. Now I'm finally able to take him seriously.

Now, one more question/suggestion. When I played GalCiv1 somebody did a Star Wars conversion including trade movies. Those trade movies also had sound.
Is there any particular reason apart from potential size of the movies why those biks don't?

"Oh, I thought you'd be dead. Well, there is always tomorrow..."
I'm gonna make that my sig now.

I play the mod on normal and the game seems to follow the same path each time. The Vorlons and Minbari form an alliance; the Centauri dont get past having half a dozen worlds before being the first to be wiped out; the Shadows are the next to be wiped out leaving me (EA) and the Narn v the 'good' alliance.

Is something out of balance and requires adjusting as the 'evil' two can't be that constantly poor.

Excellent mod though.
