Latest News: HWR Inside#7 - The Begin is near
5 comments by Chimas on May 5th, 2013
Well,The last days have been ... interesting:
- GEARBOX appeared and took the HW IP. The funeral is cancelled. Let's see what comes ahead;
- BLACKBIRD started the pre-sales phase of HARDWARE:SHIPBREAKERS, a great game coming soon;
- FX-MOD published new material with Taiidani and Turanic ships. It's impressive and promising.
On our MOD, we started to study how to develop the Kushan campaign. It was proposed to Moleman to join us once he is studying SP missions for his MOD. So we are all over finishing the Turanic Raiders ships and structures for M1 and M2, recovering speech files, tons and tons of codings and tweakings.
In parallel, we started moving on from SugarSync to SVN/Tortoise as a management system for the project. If we approve, which is most likely, SVN's version numbering system will be adopted. It will also help us sum up better the changes from one release to another.
We've suspended/changed the next release. We haven't stopped working on it. We need to study and establish the research trees, the research ships game-play and behavior. And the Youtube VIDEOS will be displayed at moddb too.
Moleman, welcome aboard, enjoy your stay and we hope to reach Hiigara sooner than we expect ; ]

Looked the comments, didn't found such question: will player be able to select side like in original HW, or you will stick to Kushan Exiles? Because I really like Taiidan ships...
By the way if the Karos Graveyard level is going to work properly on the HW2 engine I really think that the Towing ships to a certain point is a very important thing. The difference between that and the salvage Corvette actually is going to salvage while the dog only takes the ship away and puts it like debris in the Graveyard.
By the way it would be nice if it was possible to salvage Graveyard ships, called Derelict ships because some people like the look and would actually like to use them.
I appreciate your comments, but we still have a lot of hard work to do before we arrive at karos. But all help is welcome.
I hope you complete this mod (good start so far) also I'm wondering ? are you going to rework/remake any of the models/textures that would be a great addition as well.
You can see a few examples of remastered ships on the images section. Any suggestions or critics are welcome.
Yes, we are remastering the models and textures.
I sure hope this succeeds i would love to play the hw1 campaign on the homeworld 2 engine
I'll take a look at mololu's code, then I'll ask him if it's okay to use it.
Before I even look at his code, though, I'm going to theorize that it involves scripting the ship to move to a certain dockpoint.
As i mentioned earlier but I don't know if you understood me, I meant that the PTV mod only has the towing ability which basically is the same as the Ramming frigate without the impact part.
You know that the resource collectors will only be able to gather resources but as you know resource collectors in HW2 can tow things like resource containers, I think that that job could be handled by the salvage Corvette when you either tell it to pick it up or press the Harvest Hot key, that's my idea on how to get this going at the moment.
If you have taken a look on the FX-mod's Taiidan you'll see that it is pretty much like the original, I wonder if we could have that picture of the Taiidan as a base, not taking theirs and modify just having their way of the Taiidan as a base for this mod's Taiidan, Since the Kushan is a very similar race it could be like a copy of the Taiidan just like in the original HW1.
