Star Wars: Interregnum is an upcoming mod for Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion that builds off of the highly successful Enhanced 4X Mod. Fleeing the unknown terror that is chasing the Vasari, the factions of Sins of a Solar Empire stumble on a temporary wormhole that takes them to a galaxy far, far away. The sudden arrival of armadas with trillions of refugees and thousands of warships between the events of Episodes 5 & 6 forever alters the Star Wars universe and plunges the galaxy into an unprecedented period of chaos and violence. Begun, a new conflict has.
Hello Everyone
I know many of you have been waiting a long time for Alpha 3 and the Rebel Alliance. Well good news, after weeks of trying to hurry this up, I am confident enough to give you a date!
The plan was originally to release Alpha 3 at the end of this week, as starting on Saturday I will be on vacation. However, it occurred to me this would leave me unavailable to deal with any post release issues that might arise in my absence(at minimum, a lot of people new to the mod needing help setting it up!). It would also cause a substantial delay between Alpha 3 being released and the next version of the Optional Minimods being updated, which will include several new additions, so we want them out soon after release to take advantage of the coverage.
So put it down in your datapads that on June 30th (or sooner), Alpha 3 will be released to the public.
13 more days? Hnnngh
It wasn't exactly when I wanted to release this either, but I think it will be for the best.
I am patient enough. Mostly just a joke :3
cant wait to destroy the empire
Rebel scum. Kneel before the might of Thrawn!
same here, waiting patiently...
Rebel scum
Awesome, now I have to find something to do to kill a week and a half
Pic looks great though
practice dem skillz boi lol
that would be the best birthday gift.
THE HYPE TRAIN IS REAL!!
What a wonderful late birthday present! Cannot wait :D
How late? It is possible this could come out slightly before the 30th, it partly depends how fast Moddb approves the download. :p
8-9 days, i hit 20 on the 22nd this month (Australian Timezone)
Regardless, i cannot wait, you've done amazing work on this GoaFan and i can tell that i'll be spending plenty of time B**ch slapping the Empire.
Don't say that, now we're all gonna be going nuts by the 25th pressing refresh every 5 minutes
Well I don't get back until the 27th, so don't even bother until then. :p And there are little details to do before release. Plus Moddb that I can't control. So it will likely take a day or two to make it to the website.
Nice job with the mod, can't wait to play Alpha 3 :)
Awesome I was saddened by the fact that I'd be gone for the potential release
YUS! Media3.giphy.com
I CANNOT WAIT
The Force is strong with this one.
Very excited for this release!!
Will the Bellator be retextured/modeled in the release, along with other Imperial vessels? Wondering B/C it's my favorite ship and the current model/texture are pretty meh (no offense)
The potential for a before the 30th release date teased my existence and phone battery to death due to refresh
^^ I know right.
Would be cool if you could combine this with Distant Stars like you did with E4X.
Uh basically everything in E4X is in Interregnum (if it has not been replaced by a Star Wars version of the same thing). And E4X was never combined with Distant Stars. They are both large enhancement mods that add stuff without adding new races, but they have always been independent mods.
Could you be thinking of the planet mod Infinite Space? That is the only mod that has been incorporated (of sorts) into E4X, and all Infinite Space features as implemented in E4X are in Interregnum.
I might have phrased that wrong.
I'm saying that it would be cool if you could combine Interregnum with Distant Stars, just like you've already combined it with E4X. So you would have Interregnum w/E4X, and then adding Distant Stars.
Ah, that makes more sense. But it will never happen. Established mods are very difficult to merge, it only works with Interregnum because it was planned to be based on E4X from the beginning, as they are both my mods.
Also in my obviously biased opinion, E4X is a far superior enhancement mod to Distant Stars. With some of the minimods like expanded research, all the strong points I know of in Distant Stars are also in E4X in some form. If there is something specific in Distant Stars you think is cool and is lacking in E4X, feel free to ask for it, but the entire mod will never be added.
There's also the fact the creators of Distant Stars might not like me taking their content and adding it to their main competitor, even though I'm friends with some of their team. :p
MUST
HAVE
THIS
MOD
NAAOO
NOWWW I SAAAY
Working on it!
Soon it will be time to begin praying that Moddb authorizes the download quickly. :P
Indeed, it's just one of those days where there's not much work so all I have to do when I'm not taking breaks being a masochist and playing Skyrim as physically hard as I could mod it is checking repeatedly on the downloads page, muahaha. Keep up the good work!
Will Alpha 3 require any of the DLC's? I cant remember if the previous versions did.
No DLCs will ever be required for my mods. However there are some features that may not be available unless you have them (E4X adds some new random encounters for example).
Would it be possible for us to use the force to make Moddb authorize the DL quicker?
GODDAMNIT MODDB
