An expansion/overhaul mod of epic proportions, with entirely rebalanced gameplay, expanded factions, new gametypes, graphical overhauls, and five new factions; stealth-based Confederate Revolutionaries, tower defense-inspired Atomic Kingdom of China, economy-focused Mediterranean Syndicate, DotA-esque Order of the Talon and spammy Electrical Protectorate.
In the past there has been some confusion as to whether or not players were actually playing the mini-mod. We decided to fix this problem by jazzing up the main menu a little bit! From now on, you'll know for certain whether or not your mod was installed correctly! Hooray! Considering there's gonna be a bunch of versions of mods and things floating around on our main page, we've made it so that it'll be easier to tell which release (as well as which version) you're playing.
As for the actual mini-mod itself... IT'S COMING! HOLD YOUR HORSES OR HATS IF YOU DON'T HAVE HORSES OR YOUR EYEBALLS IF YOU DON'T HAVE HORSES OR HATS! We've still got some preparations to do, but we can almost guarantee that it'll be the most awesome mini-mod yet, full of surprises.
HUGE Special thanks to Huhnu for getting it started and Jonwil for the amazing tutorials!
Neat. Looks really cool!
Looks great- and it should solve that problem.
wow i love this !!
Wow, it looks great!
It looks so cool!
*gives some cookie and 1337 internets to you guys at paradox* :D
Can you make a similar background in the full version?
The bright red is really hurting my eyes! o_O
Something like this or in green or choosing own color would be nice! :D
I think they were planning to have a random main menu scheme load when you launch the mod. Each faction will have it's own scheme.
you can have meso fortresses instead of kirovs in the future!!!
I have 4 words to describe this "totally and freaking awesome"
so what?I have one:
TOTALYMEGAAWESOME!!!1
I have so many mods that sometimes I forget which ones are which when loading. Great work guys, especially the mini-mod icon.
Cute XD
eh im not an allies fan
Me too ¬¬ But is still awesome
nice work guys awesome
will you share how to edit the main menu
this what i am trying to do since sdk v3 released
AWESOME WITH RAINBOW TEXT!
Nice now all the background needs is an Achilles killing the kirovs
Heh, I actually suggested replacing the Kirovs with Achilles and replacing the bombs with Twinblades.
Now THAT'S an attack force!
That would be totally awesome.
Very neat indeed
now this should solve my problem
*looks around*
*sits back*
*contacts ferris on MSN*
sweet, always wondered if the menu was editable :)
Woot!
can you not make it random, so it picks a faction colour and their aircraft in the background, so its different each time, that would be cool. Not that this one isn't, great work guys
It'd be near-impossible to try and implement something like that. Cool idea, though.
YEAY YEAY YEAY YEAY :D You guys are making it great :)
Oh, man. I loved the Hawker and Achilles, and I positively cannot wait for any new units.
I just might pass out if you ever bring out the entire Rebel faction.
Late May. Stand on something soft.
Ladies and gentlemen, we have an ETA! I can hardly wait.
My first thought was "Cool, but I've never had any problems knowing what version I was on"
And then last night I got booted from a co-op game because I wasn't on the Achilles Minimod.
Yeah, I'm a noob.
Lol I was there, As for the main menu changing, Is it possible for you to make one for each faction and we can pic which one we like best???
Absolutely possible! In fact, we'll probably change them around LOTS for full releases. We're just testing the waters (so to speak) in the menu screens department. The look is not consistent for all the other game menus *yet*, but in release 1 we can assure you it'll be more than the main menu. As for having you guys choose the menu look - absolutely! We love input! We'll probably release 2 for each release and get you to choose which looks better. :)
Wow, that does look awesome nice job with the menu, and Mini mod 3.0?!
Idea for the Rebels menu: Yellow, with Mount Rushmore as the landmark and Vindicators or Mesofortresses instead of Kirovs.
That's actually a lot like a suggestion I made, except the Statue of Liberty was still there and had a Confederate flag. I guess great minds think alike, and so do ours.
I was thinking the same thing, but i also thought it would be a good idea to have the player which faction its focused on.
Too sad, minimod canceled =(
Why did you not include this fantastic new menu in the new beta release today? D:
Coding issues, though we've overcome those issues since. Right now we're holding back on voices and graphic menu changes until release 1.0.
