Hi there,
So today I shall be uploading a small addon to the mod which will add four new units to the mod.
These are original series versions (TOS) of Galactica, Basestar, Raiders and Vipers. They will fire lasers and have energy shields. I have aimed to make them powerful but not too overpowered so that they are not instant game winners.
This patch will also contain other stuff I have worked on since the last patch such as modified flak barrier (should stop the game lagging on older computers), the new 20 strong squadrons and new Cylon space station as well as the improved Arvak class so if you like you can download the patch for them.
What I am planning to do is have the patch set up so that TOS units are available. I will then include in the readme file a how to guide to change the file to make the new units not available so that people who are not fans of TOS can continue to play the game without them. This should please everyone hopefully.
If enough people are fans of the original series then I might create a sub mod that would just feature TOS units, plus a couple of others adapted to fit in (unit rosters; Galactica, Asgard, Berzerk, Defender, Viper 1s, All Cylon units minus the new Basestar, attackstar, and new raiders). This would take a back seat to the main mod though and I imagine would take some time.
OMG I CANT WAIT
The download is awaiting authorisation, should be up very soon
Did you add the Laser Sounds from the Old Series to the Cylon and Colonial Ships?
I don't have .wav files for the original series lasers sadly :(
If I find some though I will add them, they sound weird at the moment as I have had to use turbolaser sound effects instead..
