This mod catapults Empire at War into 2077. It maintains the game's design philosophy, while adding new units, better graphics, and deeper gameplay.
So, new updates, and new stuff all around.
First: New menu screen, and menu buttons. View original, it looks much better in full screen. I spent more than 15 hours on that screen, but I think it was worth it.
Second: New weapon sounds. Thanks to Afro-yoda-ninja there are new sounds for turbolasers (rebel and imperial lasers each have their own unique turbolaser sound, it's really cool), triple turbolasers (heavier sounding, also unique for both imperial and rebel lasers), the imperial octuple turbolaser (that one booms really hard), and small (fighters), normal (frigates/capitals) and large (capital) ion cannons. This really gives a good new feeling to the game and I really like it.
Third: Cosmetic changes to a lot of the fighters/bombers and other small craft like artillery corvettes, thanks to Farseer they now look a lot better than vanilla.
Fourth: The CG - 273 is now finished and ingame. That is the high tier corellian light cruiser.
And that's about it.

Oh my god, this is just so goddamn amazing, it's difficult to express how I feel about it ;~;
That's exactly how i feel xD, its just so... Perfect..
With the amount of work and awesome previews I've seen so far, I can already tell this is going to be one of my favorite mods for EaW, or any game for that matter.
Great work on the new menu G, patiently anticipating the release. :)
Thanks you, I'm going to see if I can perhaps change the button layout, to intergrate them into the holographics, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to do that.
Oh man, I can not wait for this to come out. Keep up the amazing work.
imperial cockpit!
DAMN!
HOLY ****!!
this is the best menu screen ive ever seen! its beautiful!
no joke.... i have a lot of mods... i have seen many menuscreens :D
15 hours... wow
very well done!
Haha, the first sentence you wrote was the first thing I thought seeing this epicness flaming out of this image. Geroenimo, you've outdone yourself with this mindcracking menu screen. It's not just that, it's a piece of art. Everything is so well ordered in a perfect synthesis of great details which work together in such a great style, almost unbelievable. Amazing job!
Seriously one of the best menu screen I hanve ever seen in my life!!
Keep up the good work!
Thanks guys, much appreciated ;)
おお!かっけー!
Reminds me of that short star wars anime vid on youtube. well done!
Just watched it and again. Now I know why it looked so familiar ;)
o.o This looks amazing
Wasnt this the opening for EAW original? not FoC? i always liked it better myself, glad to see someone went back to it
Vanilla EAW indeed had a tie fighter cockpit too, this one's a lot more detailed and high res though.

Dang that's an awesome screen. Good work.
Now THAT is what I call a main menu! So fraken awesome!
