ok now that i've got it working, i think the sound effects for the tie bomber/fighters (mainly the engine effect) overpower eveything else, and i believe that it needs to be turned down

i found that the dreadnaught's stats are 85593 ofr hull, and 79554 for shields, are they meant to be like that?

Starbases still do not have the phase disruption ability from the start. 

It is too fun to watch tie fighters / bombers blast a target.  Their sound is a bit overwhelming if you have your volume turned up though.

I found a problem when playing last night.  The second Imperial capital ship (forgot what the name is, but second one to choose to build at start) has a problem when it reaches level 8.  I had a level point, but there was no where to put it.  I had 3 points in repair, 3 points in embargo and 1 in instant strike craft build.  Heavy Fighters never enabled, and everything else was not enabled, either.

Also, I find it not very useful to have no Colonize on either of the starting captial ships.  You have to research way up the chain to get a capital ship with Colonize.  By the time I get that high up the chain, I'm not colonizing fast enough to want a capital ship with that ability so much.  Couldn't one of the starting 2 capital ships have Colonize instead?

Just had a fully upgraded Capital Ship that you are talking about.  I have not experienced the problem with being able to put points in Heavy Fighters.  I'n able to put points in all 3 abilities and the level 6 ability that opens up.

I researched the novalith canon and was not able to build it

harpo

This did not happen in my game.  I was able to spend all my points.  Make sure that you installed all the patches in the correct order, I know if you don't do that problems occur.  1.2 ->1.3 then 1.3 -> 1.4, and finally 1.4 -> 1.5.

I did install it that way.

allmy modded ships are black : (

please direct me to correct link that explains how ive been stupid or explain also will the next fix be on the same site as others as the support and dl instruction page seems to be unavailable

^I believe its a problem with the sins engine actually. When extremely zoomed in to ships, the game adds light effects depending on the sky box, its position to the star etc. This is hard to do with mod ships, but if you change your camera angle you will see it to a degree. I assume this is why they look very dack when fully zoomed in...

Also I'm not sure why, but this isn't as noticeable on the skybox with the bright blue background. Seems to be the worst on red and purple...

Nice Mod work JasonFJ, you will find your work hosted at my site along with a few other Mod designers who have big Mods or more then one. I made you a category in my downloads to keep all your work in one location.

I been a loyal Stardock customer, fan, client for almost 8 yrs now. I am a 30yr gaming vet., I do this not for greed, fame, ego boost, blah blah. I do it to give back to all of the gaming community especially to Mod Designers, you guys do the work for free, yet many download sites attempt to cash in on this FREE work. I find it disgusting, along with throttling downloads, or anything to FORCE the member to reg at site, pay for a service, bah!! Make money other ways damn it, don't rape us Gamers.

Game Fanatics Vault JasonFJ Mod Studio If you want the Mod posted by you, simply register I will give you relinking instructions simple as that. Update small files using our download/upload manager, or I give you FTP access to your own folder, to use as you want for your work. I will create forums for you to that you own, not the site. Other wise we can redirect support back tot his thread. Game Fanatics is fanatical lol giving exactly what they Mod Designers want or need for their Mod Dev work. The forum can be hidden password only keep out riftraft.

Cheers, thanks for the great Star Wars mod, I want a good Star Trek one too. Sure someone has one in progress or done. lol

Thanks for the positive comments, Kitsune. I actually have a site that I maintain and can download from - http://sins.imperial.cc and having wandered over to your site I notice that the download links are at v1.1 (it's currently at v1.6!) which highlights the issue of having multiple hosting areas. I think it might be better to simply link your site to mine... and have yours act as a mirror download (I have a monthly download limit but I haven't hit it so far).

The alternative is I begin to update multiple mod sites... which becomes time consuming and takes me away from what I like best: modding and playing

Edit: just clicked on Download, and the file doesn't automatically download. When I "click here" I get a white page with a message "Input key mismatch!". Any chance you could point your mod entry back to my site - at least until I find someone/people who can update other mod sites and/or upload the mod ZIP to other mirrors?

Heinekus, glad you're also enjoying the mod.
Good suggestion on spreading LaserTech advance over more research tiers. I'll include that in the 1.7 release coming out.
I wasn't planning to put in the Executor SSD... whilst I love the concept of having it, it's just... too big. From memory about 8 times bigger than an ISD (1.5km vs 17km or something like that) which is too big for standard game gravity wells. Also there is no effective counter to them with the Advent/Vasari/Tech races so it breaks the game balance If I scale the mesh down it breaks SW immersion having a tiny Executor SSD sitting next to an ISD!
Lastly, I don't know of any Death Star mesh. I'd love to get it... I wanted to replace the starbase mesh with it (not actually implement THE Death Star which would break scaling and SW universe immersion).
