Renfl, about the only thing we would have to do is balance everything. We'll have to look into it. Our biggest issue right now is converting the ships. Running into some problems

Renfl, I'm looking forward to seeing this too! And we're still working on the Star Wars mod . Hopefully we'll get some ships out soon. I'm interested in getting the ST ships. Once we get the SW mod done, it might be interesting to make a balanced ST vs SW mod .

I know no one really cares, but I do... Will there be a fix for the Survey Module\Galactic Guide Book cost issue (building a Galactic Guide Book doesn't make the Survey Module free, as it is supposed to do) at any point in the future?

I've always wondered about the survey module never being free even after the galactic guide book, but no one cares, lol.

the screen shots you can take on the shipyard screen. You just have nebulas in the background.

Something fishy going on with latest beta when upgrading ships. The game screen informs that it takes "a week" to complete upgrade even if the upgrade is finished alrdy. The reacently upgraded fleet still has the "upgrade : a week" message on it and also the upgrading icon over it. Even so I can move the ships after which the correct upgraded names appear on ship na

They first version did come out. We're waiting for the second now, as the first one had pretty much a game ending memory error. Hopefully in the next couple of days.

Who shoots from 15k away? All space combat I've seen and heard of has been no more than a couple of klicks away! At which point speed and size is still a factor. I'd like to see smaller ships have a better defense rating against larger ships, due to their size. I doubt this will happen, however, since you can arm a fighter with the same weapons you can arm a battleship.

I had the same issue. Near the end of a Gigantic game, and I couldn't save. Luckily, only lost 5 turns thanks to auto save. Nice feature, btw . I love big fleets, and I love big maps.

I also had blank fleet graphics. Even new ships, not just obsolete...

Update on the Star Wars Mod. We are making head way. Quite a few of the ideas we have are not possible to mod, and it is slowing us down a bit, but we are still working hard to get this mod complete. It will take time, so please be patient. If anyone has any idea where we can find these models, please e-mail me at [email protected]. We are looking for: Action VI Transport A-Wing B-Wing Gallofree Transport TIE Advanced x1 We are also looki

I would want to use it to make something only available to core ships. It was also an idea that, unfortunatly, cannot be finished to to the game coding, would have hopefully made starfighters more useful near the end game, as I wanted to add a defense against certain weapons built into the hull. But it will only work for core designs.

would putting the techs in the tech tree AFTER the last technological victory tech work? The game would end, (theoretically) but you wouldn't get to those other techs.

Does anyone know of any programs that are free that I can use to just view models in this format? Milkshape is out, as I've already used the trial version for another game a year or so ago. Thanks.

oops. I didn't check the boards a few days lol. Thanks

Is it possible? What I'm looking to do is something similar to the speed ability attached to every hull that gives it a base speed in game. Is there a way to do that for defenses? Or is it possible to attach components to hulls, instead of designs? Rasori has helped me, and we've not been able to find a way.

But is there a way to restrict things to smaller hulls only?

any help is great help I'd appreciate it, and so would about.... 5 or 6 other people?

Okay, so the long walks on teh beach thing is optional. The Star Wars Mod Team is looking for a 3D modeller willing to help us get or build models of a number of vessels from the star wars universe. SO far, none of our team has no exprience, and with some of the fantastic models we've seen here in these forums, we feel it would add so much more to our mod to have actual hulls, insteard of ships built with jewelry. If anyone is interested, even with just a couple of ships, plea

I'll make a post about this... I kind of like the idea of a free choice universe. But, you can only pick one linme of ships. One thing Rasori and I have talked a bit about was having a line of tech for each of the major factions, each one unlocks their ships. So you can only pick one type, as the others would be useless, and it would slow your research down to research all for. Then, at the end of each ship tech line, there would be one that gives access to all hulls. A

Well, for planetary invasions, we've got starfighter strafing runs, a strike team, and planetary bombardment (probably already in the original game, but I've never researched that far down this line). As to working out a Death Star type object, I dunno how to incorporate it and I'm not sure I'd want too. Maybe the Death Star could just be a wonder you build, and that planet gets +25 tiles to build on? I don't know about having seperate tech trees. Over all, most races use the same

Hmm.. I tried adding it and it still upped my cost for the Survey module. It appears to not bother most people, but it bothers me. I would like to use it. Anyways, thank you for the feed back and for attempting to find the bug .

Wilson, There's a bunch of us making a Star Wars mod, would you be interested in joining the team? I like the idea of different tech trees for different races. If you're interested, please e-mail me at [email protected]

You're right, we probably won't be able to follow the canon exactly. Partially why I have the engines named for sublight instead of hyperdrives in the SW universe, which woul just be classes (.5 class for the falcon Class 1 or 2 for capital ships, etc). Actual races would play a role still. The only factions that would be races would be the rebels, republic, Empire, CIs, or whichever we choose. Other races, such as the Mon Cals, Hutts, Bothans, etc would still be major (and minor o

Not sure on the size of the weapons. IF a fighter weapon is 10 (Just for ease of math) then the equivalent capital could be anywhere from 18-22 is my estimation. With out testing, hard to say. The major and minor races are going to have to include the factions as well. I like the idea of using the shipyards as the choices for your ships, the only problem there is the rebels had a bit of everything. It's still easy to work around that, but keep in mind that the Rebels did get the
