Dark Progenitor and Kardaran Demo
Dec 18, 2012 Demo 13 commentsAlright here you go a new demo for Dark Wars this one has both the Kardarans and Dark Progenitors.
Story Of The Dark Wars
Fifty years after the Hiigarans united the 3 hyperspace cores, and unleashed the Great Maker Sajuuk, things were going well as they repaired the damage the Vaygr did to Hiigara, or so they thought. In the shadows of the galaxy, there was an ancient Progenitor gate, on the other side there was a darkness, more eviler then anyone could of imagined. Behind this gate was Dark Sajuuk the Great Destroyer, and his Dark Progenitors, the evil cousins of the Progenitors, by unlocking Sajuuk the Hiigarans also unlocked the Gate of Darkness, and so the Darkness was released. Now Dark Sajuuk and his minions are after the 3 hyperspace cores, if he gets them there will be no hope for anyone. Only the Hiigarans and Sajuuk can stop the coming Darkness but will they find out how to?
Meanwhile in the dark corners of the Galaxy a monster that everyone though was dead has been reborn, and it hungers for revenge, and the galaxy. As it turns out the Beast Infection wasn't completely stopped a small pocket of it survived and now it is rampaging through the galaxy feeding on every thing in it's path. The Beast may be using old technology but it has vastly upgraded them.
Even though their leader Makaan is now dead, and their fleet shattered, this didn't mean the end for the Vaygr for a new warlord has come to power Rajas-Veer. Rajas-Veer was Makaan's second in command and one of his closest friends, because of this Rajas-Veer wants revenge on the Hiigarans but can't with the kind of fleet he has now, and because of this he is looking for ways to fix that problem.
Within their shattered empire, the Taiidan are rebuilding for War, a new emperor has risen, and wants revenge on the Hiigarans for everything they have done to the once great Taiidan Empire, and is willing to work with the Vaygr. The Taiidan were the most feared empire, and they shall be again.
In a far away sector there is an icy world where the advanced, and peaceful Kardarans are preparing for war just like they have for many unending years, in their war against the Beast.
Now soon all of these races shall meet and thus the Dark Wars shall begin, there can only be one victor but who shall be that one? You decide.

Features
-4 new races, the Dark Progenitors, the Kardaran Empire, the Beast Infection, and the Taiidan Empire.
-Tons of new and old ships for all of the races.
-Plenty of new maps.
-A new class of ship for every race called the Flagship or a Ultimate ship, that can destroy
anything in it's path but costs alot to build and research it.
-New subsystems and ships for the original races.
-Right now compatible with both V1.0 and V1.1 Homeworld 2 this could very easily change though.
Completion
As of now I'm working towards the first release.
The mod right now is at least 70% done.
The Kardarans are about 85% done some more ships are planed
The Dark Progenitors are about 95% done being my most complete race so far they just need to have a few bugs fixed
The Taiidan are about 90% done they just need to balanced, and maybe get a few new ships.
The Beast is about 85% done they need to get their AI fixed and reworked a bit and lots of new things need to be added such as gaining enemy tech by infecting a enemies production ship. New ships and subsytems need to be added in.
New Music 95%
Beast Infected Ship Sounds 100%
I have plans for a single player campaign but don't know if I will make one.
Also feel free to post ideas, and feedback.

Alright lets get down to business shall we. The Vaygr have upgraded their crusades, and fleets ever since the end of Homeworld 2 these changes are.
--Gameplay/Balance Changes--
-All plasma based weapons have been replaced with laser based weapons now
-This means ships like the Vaygr Bomber, now known as the Assault Bombers are armed with Laser cannons instead of plasma bomb launchers.
-All Vaygr ships have been given a speed boost
-Some Vaygr Ships like the Carrier have been given a health boost
-There is a second improved manufacturing upgrade after the first
-This allows Vaygr Fleets to be able to build more ships even faster to go with their raiding style gameplay.
-Destroyers Now attack facing their enemy instead of useing a broadside tactic.
-This allows the Destroyers to use their new frontal laser cannon that must be researched.
--New Ships--
--Fighter Class--
Strike Fighter
Siege Bomber
--Corvette Class
Mortar Corvette
Assault Corvette
--Frigate Class--
Laser Frigate
Long Range Missile Frigate
--Capital Ship Class--
Light Cruiser

--Platform Class--
None
--Utility Class--
None
--New Subsystems--

These are all the changes, and new ships the the Vaygr, I hope you will enjoy these changes.
Now heres a epic screenshot from a epic hard battle I just did against the Hiigarans, and Kardarans.
Alright here you go a new demo for Dark Wars this one has both the Kardarans and Dark Progenitors.
Thats right this is a Demo Release for the Dark Progenitors, hope you enjoy. Please keep in mind that this is a demo release not a full version.
Could you make this mod compatible with the original Homeworld or other? Or a new mod within that range? Cause I'm going to get the Homeworld game sometime this week- either Thursday or Friday.
Sorry I will not be able to do that, Homeeworld and Homeworld 2 modding are pretty different from each other and I hardly know anything about modding the first Homeworld.
Homeworld is very limited when it comes to modding as most of the features of the first game and it's expansion: Cataclysm are hardcoded. Homeworld 2 is much more flexible, thus preventing a mod of this scale to be integrated into Homeworld 1.
o, Kardaran Demo! You slowly connecting your elements of work :D
I think, release will be very, very soon... :D
But what first? Demo? If yes, which race? Taiidan, Beast, Vaygr Empire or Hiigaran Navy? :D
A release of some sort maybe...But for now I am working on something for the Dark Progenitors...
100 Watchers a milestone for me! Thanks everyone!
The beast gonna have the ability to infect? :D
No saddly I can't put that into homeworld 2 but I did make a work around though.
Ahh lets see its called "With An Iron Fist" by Immediate Music.
