i just added over 25 new things to my "to do" list, so expect the 0.4.6 release to be something special. I added alot of things that are essential to civilizations, such as Communications Jamming, supermarkets (food bonuses not economy)and trade goods, such as gold and platinum and ofcourse some more weapons and races!! just remember that it'll take awhile. although i just happen to have alot of time over the next few weeks since i'm on vacation. it's possible that i'll have a release on my site prior to the 0.4.6 release so i'll keep you posted on that and all other updates.

you really need to post more screen shots of your mod otherwise people wiont try it I had to learn that the hardway.

This look like a interesting mod. Where did you get your inspiration for it? Kind of reminds me of Harry Turtledove's alternate history where aliens invade the Earth during WWII and the Axis and Allies are forced to work together.

If this has nothing to do with that you should consider it cause I think it would work really good with you model all the factions are the same and you can add the Alien lizards in.

Ohh another question, why is it the fifth not fourth Reich?

Other than that good luck with the mod.

Sounds good. I had to look it too. The aliens refer to themselves as the "Race" and their lizards.

So are you working on models, as in 3dmax add new models into the game or are you creating a custom ship packs based on the parts in game. Normally I would say new models are cool but to be honest you really don't need to go that far since there is so much author created concept here. It would be cool to imagine the styles that a Nazi, USSR, Allies, and United States factions would come up with going into space. If you have the modeling skills you might consider adding new components rather than new complete hulls, to further the feel of each faction.

feedback on that new model (screenshot above) would be nice.

i'm thinking of adding WWII planes to the game but to start it off i just made what i felt like and that just happened to be a speeder (no screen and unfinished) and an F-18 (screenshot at the top and also unfinished) but yeah, eventually i would like to add WWII models. Maybe something like that bomber at the bottom of the picture you posted. It's all in the works. Stuff like this is just going to take time, especially since my biggest problem is texturing, otherwise the models would be flowing left and right. It took me about an hour to do that rough draft for the F-18. Then over the last few days i have been refining it and preparing it.
Another problem i'm having is with creating a modded scenario for my missions. I use GalCiv2 IDE for it and it only works for the standard races. I have to edit anything referring to a race name, manually. I still plan on releasing it, EVENTUALLY!  Just in a long time. Also modding isn't the only thing i do with my spare time and this also affects the timetable. Nevertheless, i plan on making releases every one or two months and they will have a considerable amount of updated data.

Version 0.4.1 has been released!download it here or at my site. it includes many new updates and some finished races. regrettably, no new models are available in this update due to the massive amount of setbacks. no promises but next release will probably include new models.
thanx for looking,

Have you thought about setting up camp over at the I-mod website? Good place to have your mod hosted.

I just noticed a thread on I-Mod about making race specific tech trees for DA and i might implement into The Bringers of Light eventually, just to spice things up.
it'll be kinda cool but it would take a long time since i'd have to make a lot of extra techs to make up for the ones i take away from races.

REALLY IMPORTANT!!!!!!!!!!


DO NOT DOWNLOAD THE

MOD UNTIL THE 0.4.1f VERSION IS RELEASED!


There is a serious bug in the

raceconfig.xml that is screwing the whole thing up!

sorry i didn't find this sooner! i should have made sure to test the mod right before releasing this version. Stupid
me!! i'll try to have the 0.4.1f version out within the next day or two. once again, sorry.
