I test a little.

The IA is wicked by nature, but she always try to sell its technologys. I think it comes from the base IA and at the moment, we can not do anything [:@].

@ Wormguy: is what you have sins of a solar empire?
If yes, look here: http://forums.sinsofasolarempire.com/332224
If you should not do, I'll try to look at what gives the models in game. And you make a screen for a view from above.

I have Sins of a Solar Empire but I do not have the expansion Entrenchment which you need to play that mod... [:(]

Here is a screenshot in game.

It does not matter, I have. I'll go see what gives the models in game.

Nice work anyway [&o].

Awesome work, wormguy. Can't wait to see these ships with a bit of colour added. Though, in truth, they look great as they are.

Nicodede, Great work so far. Hopefully if patch 1.03 sorts out most of the remaining bugs, the devs will start addressing problems in the next patch, like:-

Moving independant colonies to smaller less suitable worlds, or an option to disable independants;
Making races more aggresive/malevolent so they don't try diplomacy or share technology;
An option to prevent alien migration to your colonies, or to stop it altogether.

I think these changes would be condusive to making most mods more enjoyable not just this one.[:)]

Wait and see [>:].
I also hope that the modding is not going to put 3 patch to unlock a little [:@].

For me, it doesn't matter how many patches they make. They have been working pretty fast so I don't think we have to wait long.

Regardless of these problems, this is still a really fun mod.

Phew... ok, now I am tired... [:'(] Here are more previews for the Imperium of Man. I am just about finished with all their ships now. [:D]I have new bases done too. Thanks for the support Igard. Truth is though, I'm thinking I am not gonna colour them at all because I think it would take an eternity and there are many more races yet to do!! [:)] Might take a break for a few days but anyone have any requests to which races ships I should do next? I personally wanna do the Tyranids cause their bio ships will be awesome looking! [:D]

Wormguy, they look awesome without colour anyway!

Very impressed that you finished these so fast.[&o] I know there's very few ships in the literature with a top-down view so you must have photoshopped all of them!

Looking forward to seeing what both you and nicodede come up with.

Enjoy yourself some rest now. [:)]

Regarding making races more aggressive, are you using the galaxy settings slider? For 40k I would slide it all the way to the right (Chaos).

No, I had leave completely left in the settings [8|] [8|].
I notice the races are more aggressive when I put the "chaos" in settings map.
I have not tested thoroughly with this option, especially because I wait the patch 1.03 for enjoy the game at 100%.

A question Erik

Will it be possible to integrate a specific government for a race?

As for example, I wanted put 'hive mind" for the Tyranids. But, it's not possible with the file "race.xml" because it's not in this folder that the governments are made.

Not tried it all the way up yet. I'm too scared![:D]

Will give this a try next time I start a game. Does this put an end to any natural affinities one empire might have for another? Does it completely stop all tech sharing and generally make it harder to trade?

Yes, "Chaos" is the setting you want for 40k, definitely.

I don't know yet, but I do know that we are planning to improve things on the modding side as soon as we can stop fixing issues and making important UI tweaks. So modders will have to be patient with us, but we will get some improvements done on that front too.

Yes, I learned that you were only two on the project. It's already a huge amount of work provided, and I understand quite that you need to first resolve bugs and other problems in the game.

I wait with impatience the 1.3 [;)].
