Quick synopsis
This mod introduces the colonial and cylon factions to the Sins of the Fallen universe. Both races will be playable with any of the planets, addons, and races included in Sins of the Fallen including the stock races. Both the colonial and cylon's factions will be balanced against the stock factions to support this approach.
Colonial Fleet
Relying on heavily armored and armed ships the colonial fleet is always on the defense looking for cylon incursions. Lacking shields of any kind Battlestar Point Defense systems are used to intercept incoming weapons and minimize damage to nearby frigates and cruisers supporting the fleet.

Careful guys, we may turn this into a complete mod
keep up the good work guys!
If someone pms me lines I can pass through them and give them my thoughts. Unfortunately I am much too busy for dedicating any major effort to anything but my current workload, though.
Already asked him and he isn't interested. But I got help and coming along with the lines, we must put our best effort into this.
Cylon Hand of God tree taking shape. Still a few things that need shifted around, but starting to look good.
Looks awesome Zombie!!!!
I sent you an email with a replacement icon image for the Hybrid Core Upgrade, under Model Subsystems... At the moment it looks like two images that are exactly the same.
Also wondering if you are going to put CP Missiles --> Heavy Missile Turrets --> Heavy CP Missiles --> Tactical Nuclear Missiles --> Advanced Tactical Nuke in Model Subsystems?
Also, ignore the sound files that I emailed you the other day, because I've fixed up some of them/added more etc. I'll send the updated sound files as soon as they are done.
Hey zombie, when playing this with sins of the fallen, which folders are more up to date regarding planets, addons, and core?
I'm not sure if I should extract all this first, then overwrite it with R2.1 Sins of the Fallen or vice versa.
Wow, soooo cool. Love how it's so customized!! some great images there from the show.... what's the elephant icon? Activate Boomer or something? Looking really good so far.
Do you want me to send you the sounds that I recorded from the show for Colonials?
My internet will not allow me to download the mod from gamefront. Is there any way to have it put on on the SotF page on Moddb? If so, I would be greatly appreciative.
Got it in.
Ya, need to expand the bottom tree. Part of the moving stuff around.
Roger.
R2.1 is not compatible with FoK right now. To much of Cylon was torn down during development of 2.1
I think it was activate sleeper agent.
Ya, I even when custom ship sounds are made there are several events that might be able to use them.
I still need to see about uploading 1.15 to strategy informer.
Mord_Sith, I took into account the events that also happen in the mod. I already drew up lines and recorded a couple of them already such as when detecting a ship in FTL and when an artifact is found as well.
Lates research tree update.
Please note, this is a skeleton, the underlying research bonuses are 50% and NO abilities have been created yet.
I'm also going to be requesting balance opinions on research tree positions.
I also need two icons for FTL Drive and Fearlessness.
ResearchSubject|Cylon|Apotheosis|FTLDrive|FTL Drive|An FTL drive is added to the Resurrection Hub, which allows it to jump to adjacent systems when under threat. ResearchSubject|Cylon|Apotheosis|Fearlessness|Fearlessness|When Resurrection Ships are present within the fleet, ship crews no longer fear death and overheat their systems, improving speed and damage.
I would like to vote YES for this wholeheartedly.
The slower gameplay of this is incredibly enjoyable as a good contrast to the Halo mod my team develops, I can actually send reinforcements that actually arrive while the battle is still going on, which is pretty nice. Mind you, I like the Halo playstyle as well, but this is a nice break.
Zombie, you know how to contact me personally if you're looking for any particular help, I may even be able to see if my voice-work guy can throw any help your way, among the others. I'm sure you're well aware of most criticisms of the mod, but I really think you should consider releasing this as a standalone with custom planet names and all the good stuff, that keeping it as part of SotF makes very hard to get right. Of course, this is your baby and I enjoy it's present version quite a bit, so take all this with a grain of salt. Also, I know you're very busy, but the textures for both factions could use some attention. Have you tried talking to skyline over at DotR or any of the other prominent fellows to see if they can lend a hand? If you want, I can look around and see if I can find you a body to assist, like I've done for SotP a few times. Also, if you have some custom effects you're wanting done for the BSG chunk let me know and I'll see if my guy Dhoulmegus has time to help out, especially the jump effects. Just PM if any of this interests you!
Amazing work thus far, truly enjoyable mod!
If you can get more voice actors to help me and the other two I got helping me with lines, that would be great! I got most of the lines written out but the main issue here is voice actors.
Hey Z, looks good. A few notes:
Hand of God tree:
- Have emailed you the two icons that you are looking for.... but please use the current icon for "Twin FTL Engines" as the icon for "FTL Drive" for the Resurrection Hub (the one you are looking for above). I've provided you with a new icon for "Twin FTL Engines"
- Under "Model Projections" and "Model Subsystems", there is an icon that has been used twice (looks like an 8 on its side, with a green plus sign). The one under "Model Subsystems" looks like Recursive Healing research... not sure of the other one. If you let me know what the one is for Model Projections, I'll provide you with a new icon.
- The icons for Biomechanical Resin, Compressed Resin and Reactive Resin seem to have a blue tinge/discoloration? Should be silver, like your previous post on 2nd May (Post #1655). The icon for "Twin FTL Engines" also has a blue tinge?
- Icons for "Tactical Nuclear Missiles" and "Advanced Tactical Nuke" are the same. I've emailed you a new icon for "Advanced Tactical Nuke".
Apotheosis:
- Swap "Industrial Networks" and "Occupation" main images... they're around the wrong way.
- Looks as though "Industrial Networks" tree is incomplete? There's a few research items missing. I also see that there is an Advent icon in there. If you let me know what research item this is, i'll provide you with a new icon.
- Looks as though there are a few research items missing from "Programming" as well i.e Systemic Hacking...
- Have provided you with a new icon for "Lobotomise Raiders" ... the old one I provided doesn't look very good....
- I've provided you with a new icon for "Boxed Models"
- I've provided you with a new icon for "Projection"
Defense Systems
- Have provided a new main image for Defense Systems - don't like the current one
- Have provided a new icon for "Raider Reinforcement" - current one looks a bit dark
Let me know if you need any other icons, happy to provide them.
The Plan
- "The Plan" main research screen says "Defense Systems"...
- Will email you a new main picture for "The Plan" ... current image is distorted.
- Looks like you still need to add in a fair few things here... i.e. Number One Model etc... I didn't provide many icons in the original spreadsheets that I sent through to you... would you like me to provide some customized icons?
Hey Z, I see that you have already incorporated all of them anyway! Sorry I haven't actually played as Colonial before, so wasn't sure if you did.
Hey Z... I just emailed you all the icons that you need for "The Plan" research tree. Didn't like some of the old ones I supplied, and created custom icons for everything else. You'll be able to tell what icons go where because I've called each of the files by their research name.
Also, I've supplied a new icon for "System Crash", in the "Hand of God" --> "Viruses and Infiltration" sub-tree.
Also wondering if you're going to create custom images for the main research tree menu down the left hand side?
@Unikraken anyone that wants to help can. I won't be actively trying to recruit anyone though at this point though.
@Crazyfrywad I'll leave the sounds in your hands. Whatever you can come up with will be a great addition.
@Mord_Sith84 I'll look at plugging in the new icons, but what I may do is give you the master sheet for you to edit as you will. It's sorta your baby for the research tree afterall. I need to finish up the Rebels first though.
For those that have issues with gamefront, http://ricksgalaxy.com has uploaded 1.15 to his mediafire account.

I'm taking care of the Colonial lines, I know someone else is taking care of the Cylon lines and that is okay by me. Even though I do have voice actors helping me out, I will always gladly accept more help from anyone who wants to give us a hand. Finals are now done now and I can really get going with recording the lines.
I'm also going to talk to the effects guy for my mod and see if he's willing to help you out. Are the 30 different cylon missile effects on purpose? Anything you want as the custom jump effects? I'd really like to help as much as I can.
If someone makes something quality for the mod, I'll put it in. If it's custom jump effects, sounds, w/e. My time to do new things is severely limited. So if people want new stuff in they'll have to create it. I'll wire it in though as there aren't many people that can do that. That said if someone made a custom ability that fit the design put forth I'd review and add it in.
I have no idea what you mean on the 30 different cylon missile effects. The only thing I can think of is it's bad to have as many weapon hardpoints as you would expect on cylon models. I've made several passes already trying to trim those down and may need to make more.
I was just kidding about 30 different effects, but from playing the mod as the Colonials there does appear to be about 3 different missile effects being used for the Cylons.

Understood. I just didn't want to look like I was bullying my way into your mod or anything like that, because I have a great amount of respect for you, I just really like BSG and I'd really like to help where I can. I'll get back with you (I guess here is the best place) once I have more info about the things I can folks to help with. It's such a shame NBC is being a dick about BSG mods otherwise I'm sure if this thing had it's own moddb page you'd never run out of help.
Sure, happy to do that if it's easier....
