Hi, first off just wanted to say that this a very cool mod and I am impressed. I especially like the weapons effects, I think that really gives it the feel of the show. I did have a couple suggestions for ships to use; for the LRM missile frigate u could use the Zephyr which is that big spinning wheel ship u always see on the show. Also u could use Colonial One for the Cielo command Cruiser, i think that would fit perfectly. Also I have couple ability suggestions maybe give the Sentrus a super repair ability similar to repair bays do (if thats possible) in exchange for the Shield Restore ability. And I know others have suggested this but I would make the Ram ability on the Mercury a 6th level ability and then add another ability to it; which could be Concentration Aura (call it CIC Support or something) or maybe Vengeance or Animosity. Just a thought, thanks for the mod and keep up the good work!

thx guys ure great man!!!

Canute, to be honest, I have no idea why that is happening. I haven't had it happen to me. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

btw i playing Colonies at moment and that problem isn't against pirate only.

I notice when i command them manualy to attack something, often they stay idle after they worked their queue. But not allways, so i can't reproduce it yet.

I request Kyogre's email to send him a safe, where he can take a look.

yes it is for entrenchment 1.02 ONLY. if you are trying to run in sins 1.16 IT WILL CRASH

I ran the Sins of a solor empire entremchment app - I load the game - mod - I ge this error: MiniDump

C:\users\admin`1\appdata\local\temp\sins dump\sins-entrenchment v1.02-2009-06-08-01-05-55-4828-2956.dmp

hms-arkroyal try this info, it has helped a lot  of sinners

assuming you have sins 1.16/entrenchment 1.02,  the galaxy forge maps NEED to be placed here for xp

C:\Documents and Settings\'user name'\Local Settings\Application Data\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\mods v1.16 for sins
C:\Documents and Settings\'user name'\Local Settings\Application Data\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\mods entrenchmentv1.02 for entenchment

or here for vista/windows 7

NOTE the first two folders after the 'user name' are hidden , so to see them you must first click on 'tools' then 'folder options', then 'view', then click on 'show hidden files& folders' then click ok, then you will be able to browse your want to the folder. I suggest when you find the folder that you create a shortcut to it on the desktop

hope this helps you

Just run Entrenchment. (click the desktop icon if you have it, run it from Impulse, etc) The mod should then work.

HMS-ARKROYAL your problem is that you're in the wrong folder. Harpo put the filepath in the post above yours (#164)

found it, thanks

Well, originally, I did want to just add the Colonials+Cylons to the vanilla races, but it didn't work too well. Everytime I tried to load the mod, the game crashed. It was way too hard to figure out what the problem was, because there is no developer.exe out for the current patch. The new patch later this week will have a dev.exe, so I may go back and try to add in the vanilla races again, depending on how many people want me to.

If you want a lot of races, I suggest 7 Deadly Sins. It has a ton of races, and in the next release the Colonials and Cylons will likely be in it.

Go to the mod and open the "Gameinfo" folder. Each one of the files is a ship/ability/structure, etc. CAPITALSHIP_TECHBATTLESHIP is the Mercury, TECHCOLONY is the Galactica, etc. There is a section called "baseprice" just change the numbers there to change cost. Down towards the bottom there is a "Commandpoints" section. Starting Value is the base # of squads a cap can have, valueincreaseperlevel is pretty self-explanitory.

# of craft is a squad is controled in the SquadPsiBomber (Cylon heavy raider) SquadPsiCombat (Cylon raider) etc. You want to change the "baseMaxNumFighters" value.

EDIT: I forgot to add this. You can change whatever you want, all I ask is that you do NOT release your version. (This goes for everyone, not just you) Thanks

Um... it shouldn't work, period. When you enable the mod, it should crash, because Entrenchment mods don't work with vanilla Sins. Assuming you somehow got it to work with vanilla, I can't imagine that changes much as far as which files to edit, etc.
