Well Silveressa,
There is a Star Wars mod team but they could use the help of a experienced modder so it depends on what kind of skills you have. Be it 3d model making or coding??? I think the Star Wars team could use the help if that is the case.

I've got experience in coding and creating sound/music files if any of that is really needed.

(I've modded Warhammer 40k dawn of war, Impossible creatures, and Homeworld 2, so am most familiar with LUA coding, but the XML that GC II uses seems pretty basic in comparison.)

That is true we need alot of mods to be honest. Someday, the nerd in me hopes that someone would combine all the mods together to create on big star Wars, Trek, BSG, SG mod but until then we work with what we got.

The issue with most conversions is the 3d models which is a tough skill to master, however, the Star Wars mod has a real advantage thxs to the Warlords guys releasing all their homeworld II models out their thus all one has to do is convert them to GCII xfiles. Not as easy as it sounds but do able. Infact the trek mod is doing well for the same reason, we have a hard core Star Trek Command III fan base to thank for coming up with so many models that can be converted as well.

Making a HW2 mod is an insult to HW2. It was/is one of the best looking tactical combat space games yet.

Star Adder, congrats that made me laugh quite a bit

Silveressa, please check out the Star Wars Mod Team! We could definetly use the skills you could bring in. We currently have no one to handle the music. We do have some coders, and at the moment, not a lot to code, but your assistance would be wonderful.

We also would like 3d and 2d artists, if anyone is interested or knows someone who is.

At the moment, we are also having some issues converting models, which the ST team is working to help us with. We've got most of the models, just can't convert them at the moment .

BTW once the ST and SW mods are complete, Renfl and I already brought up the idea of a ST vs SW mod... We'll see on that one, but it is definetly a possibility.
