Included in the main download is the "Squad Size Reduction" addon, which condenses all fighter squadrons into having a single super fighter and edits anti-fighter abilities to reflect that change. This addon was created primarily to reduce lag, for both singleplayer and multiplayer matches. To install an addon, one must once again edit EnabledMods.txt, and place the addon above the main mod in the list like so:TXTVersion 0enabledModNameCount 2enabledModName "SoGE Addon - Squad Size Reduction"enabledModName "SoGE 4.10.0"TEAM=============================================Lavo (Ship stats, abilities, tech tree work, rigging, interface icons)Warb_Null (Models, textures)Maxloef (Models, textures, particles, sounds, skyboxes)starkiller623 (Maps)Service_Disconnect (Interface icons)Wawac (Interface icons)mmeier1986 (Error/bug fixing)Chimaera (Ship stats)Many many beta testers, many who didn't do a thing, thanks to those that give us valuable feedback!INACTIVE STAFF=============================================Evillejedi (Models, textures, ship stats)NovaCameron (Planets; models, textures, and stats)Psychoak (Abilities and tons of debugging [1.0E would have taken another year without his help])Ludo Kreesh (SW Music, UI, interface icons)Zoommooz (Tech tree additions/editting)Evaders (Swrebellion.com Web support and general debugging)sloosecannon (Coding, general debugging)Ozwolf (Interface icons)Pedro (SW Music)CREDITS=============================================GoaFan77 (Modeling, texture, and ability assistance, mainview icons, and other insight)Burntstrobe (All planet textures in the mod, save for the Acid, Rusty, and Gas Giant planets)myfist0 (Modeling and texture assistance and other insight)RC-1290 'Dreadnaught' (Shield impact shader, bloom/star shaders)Snowba11 (Most of the premade maps)Mick666 (Re-scaling of most premade maps, creating and contributing to the SoGE wiki)Arvis Taljik (Praetor, Malevolence, and other, textures)NomeMD (Sentinel model and icons)Republic at War team (Rusty planet's original texture)ERock72 (Providence hanger shield particle)Nomada_Firefox (Created the Endurance's mesh from EJ's Nebula SD)the50first (Getting IA2/RaW's Malevolence's textures to work in SoGE)KrdaxDrkrun (A number of particles in this mod originate from his mod TotalEffects)axeldude (Planet.fx)Egosoft (Skybox textures)Cole_Protocol (Assault Frigate Mk.II's cloaking particle)ZombiesRus5, harpo99999, soviet.belldandy (Various tools and code repositories which helped speed things up alot)Valpheus (Experimental Exhaust Colour Mod; removing team colors from exhaust)MrPhildevil (Interface icons)husker98 (A few maps built off of Snowba11's large galaxy map)Drone04 (Mon Calamari Heavy Carrier, Rejuvinator's original concept art)AdamKop (Rothana Battleship's original render)Valpheus (Vasari Deep Voice mod)dolynick, Uzii (dolynick's Galaxy Mod was integrated at one point in time, some remnants are still around)Probably some other people we are missing, thanks.CONTACT=============================================Forum http://www.moddb.com/mods/sins-of-a-galactic-empire/forumModdb page http://www.moddb.com/mods/sins-of-a-galactic-empireNexusMods page http://www.nexusmods.com/sinsofasolarempire/mods/5/Steam community page http://steamcommunity.com/groups/soageSins forum https://forums.sinsofasolarempire.com/411648Wiki http://sins-of-a-galactic-empire.wikia.comIRC #SoGE @ irc.coldfront.netCOMPATIBILITY=============================================Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion 1.82+

Dear SOGE-Team -
Should this reposting give us any hope that a new public offering is around the corner?
Ultimately that depends on what feedback we get on the beta and what issues we can get help addressing...
A new release depends mostly on the availability of models, and thus mainly if I can get Softimage and ConvertXSI to work for me right. If I can, getting models for the NR's frigate and fighter fleets can be acquired and thus they can be completed. Tech tree are done, factions are balanced, and maps are done. Strings need to be fixed; though I know how that can be done, I just need time.
I believe it can be done soon (i.e. in a few months), though ultimately, it depends on what feedback we get on the beta and what we can get assistance for.
As you all may or may not know, I'm currently working on assembling the NR frigate fleet, and completing the NR cruiser lineup. However, I lack the models to do so As such I am are requesting, if anyone has them, to send me .3ds, .max, or the model format of your choice, as long as it's usable in 3ds max, plus textures if available, the following: [url=http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Ferret-class_reconnaissance_vessel]Ferret[/url] (I will put in the Ferret or Prowler; whichever I get first)[url=http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Prowler-class_reconnaissance_vessel]Prowler[/url] (I will put in the Ferret or Prowler; whichever I get first)[url=http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Defender-class_assault_carrier]Defender carrier[/url][url=http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Agave-class_picket_ship]Agave[/url][url=http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Sacheen-class_light_escort]Sacheen[/url][url=http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Endurance-class_fleet_carrier]Endurance[/url] (EJ did a beautiful version of this, I believe it might have been used in Warlords for HW2; if anyone can send me that regardless of the format it'd be much appreciated)I'm also open to suggestions for what should be used for the NR's colony frigate. I guess the [url=http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Hajen-class_fleet_tender]Hajen[/url] would work for this, but it looks rather ugly, to say the least.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Here's a little preview of what I'm working on right now, the Corona-class frigate. Kudos to Goafan for making the NM/DA skins and fixing up the main skin!
The New Class ships as depicted in Cracken's Threat Dossier are a little suspect considering that each of the pairs of ships with the same keel length are supposed to be built on the same space frame.
I would recommend making the Sacheen and the Hajen look similar to the Phoenix Rising version, due to the image issues mentioned above.
Ah, the modernized successor to the EF76 Nebulon-B frigate, and one of the New Class Modernization Program ships, good to see it in the mod.
Yeah, have noticed that, I'm not a huge fan of the Dossier though for most ships it's the only image there is of them, even if they rather... Suck.
Hah, so that's what that "Sacheen" model in z3r0x's mod is. Yeah, that's a good suggestion, and I even have that model onhand, and being one of EJ's models I'd be able to slap it in. I owe a point of karma, whenever that system decides to work again, for this.
Indeed. It's one of the few ships whose image in the Dossier surprisingly looks good and fits. Also slapped in a better picture for it in the OP.
I was wondering why it was looking so yellow in the old one, glad it now has some respectable team colors.
Problem was in that one was that I had forgotten to add in the NM texture to the .mesh's coding, so obviously it wasn't called in.
So....I messedup my laptop (again) and need a reminder on how to download and set up tortoise '
This is an nice mod (though the ships are very small) any chance in making them biger size?
There's instructions in the beta forum, look in the sticky thread.
No.
Ahh i see the Q's and A's for the ships size on the mods site. Would there be a way to have two different dl for small sized and one for big? Just seeing if there could be that option in the next update Its an nice mod.
You can certainly try to resize EVERY SINGLE MODEL... good luck
Lol i guess that is an option too Just thought that it would be more familiar on your end, but if you guys have no plans on making them biger then thats that. Maybe some one could make an mod on making the ships biger for this mod. Any way nice mod
We've looked into the 1.0E minidump issue a bit more; it appears some ships which are not even buildable were calling for an ability which does not exist. This has been fixed and the patch in the OP has been updated, link here for reference.
I hope you guys release for diplomacy I really loved this mod, and prefer it over requiem in almost all respects. It really captured the Star Wars feel.
There may be a Diplomacy release in the future. I can confirm that there will be a Rebellion release down the road.
Wow I followed tthis mod way back when I was still playing HW2 a great deal, but gave up because I thought it had stalled. Glad to hear that you guys are going to take it up again.
Apologizes if it appeared to be stalled, until recently we haven't been paying much attention to the forums, having been sticking to the Warlords/SWR forums. EJ got a bit tied up with things a little while ago, so we haven't been updating the moddb page either, as he's the only one with access to it.
As the GameFront link is dead, here's a mirror to the 1.0E Release for Entrenchment. I didn't upload it, just putting it here for reference. Enjoy
Sins of a Galactic Empire 1.0E for Entrenchment
Link's dead? I'll get a mirror w/patch upped at some point.
Lavo I created a link with the minidump fix already applied. I figured that you're working on the mod, and as a huge fan I just wanted to help out. Here it is
SOGE 1.0E with Minidump Fix
I to am awating this mod, And if there is a giant difererence i ship sizes like i heard there was.... GREAT! i want the cap ships to be massive compared to destroyers and frigs, i dont care if they are tiny specs comparitivly!
Capital ships are indeed larger than smaller ships like the Nebulon-B, fighter are tiny specs. The mod is already out, with 1.0E publicly, and a newer version in an easily access beta test (link is in the OP).
I sould have specified for Trinity/Diplomacy, however as i never use the diplomacy tree, i guess i wouuldnt be missing anyting by playing the Entrenchment version.
