Indeed! If the ingame mpegs are anything to go by then this is a nice addition to the game. Also nice is the fact that the mod is MV safe too!

Thank you Drengin, yes the Ingame mgps are just a bit of them.

I have to say that the Lasers and Phasors and some Massdrivers have a special: each version of the weapon has an own color:

- Lasers : Red(energyless)-yellow-green-blue-darkblue(high energy)
- Phasors : Red - ... - "Yellow-orange" (Startreklike)
- Massdrivers : different colorchanges

Ps:I's not MV compatible, cause the GC2Types is changed, sorry there is no way to use this FX without changing the GC2types, I had to give extra-information to the Gc2types to play the animation right.

You can easily swap the GC2types and everything is back to standard, there won't be overwritten any weaponfile. Just the GC2Types.


Hope you enjoy it anyway!

Terraner can you run the mod from the mod file in DA?
Reply #8 from GalCiv2 Forums Top
mod file? I didn't see anything like this.

You can put it into your Dark Avatar directory, just your GC2types will be overwritten, but I added a backup GC2types with the package so you can swap it (on/off) just use the GC2types =o)


Ps: you can call me Stefan ;o)

Hmmm.. I've thought about it, but when are we expecting this new mod, Stephan?
Reply #22 from GalCiv2 Forums Top
@Lukas: I'm a bit busy this time, have to care and manage the big enhancement of I-Mod Productions with a new Forum and Server, and besides I want to finish the X3GC2 Mod for Galciv2 DL.

So give me a bit time =o)

kindly regards,

Stefan

Hello

It does seem to be an excellent mod but is it possible to use it and also The High Resolution Graphics Mod by LogicSequence, both of course being used for DA....?

i don't believe there should be any conflict. i haven't downloaded this one yet (been wanting to finish my current game first). however, the affected files for each mod shouldn't overlap, so you should merely be able to copy the contents of one folder and paste it into the other. back up the other first, of course.
