This is a mod to Homeworld 2 to enjoy the genre of humans vs. technologically superior aliens vs. bugs that you have probably enjoyed in Startship Troopers, Warhammer 40K, Starcraft. There will be three playable races (presently there are two): * Technologically superior aliens * Quickly swarming, locust-like space insects * Humans, a mix between the two Presently "hive" and "primoris" (the bugs and aliens) are included in the mod. Currently, existing HW2 models are being used; but will be replaced with new models in the final version. Mod is presently packaged as a zip archive of the data folders. As it gets a bit further along it will be repackaged as a .big file This is currently my favorite mod of HW2 to play, but it's in it's very early stages.
Cleaned up Primoris -- all ships now work as intended, except Mining Station (which doesn't build). Icons and descriptions should be as intended. Nuclear blast effect needs work. Next release -- Hive cleanup and some single-player missions.
Added the Planetkiller, Cannons, and juggled the build tree a bit. Hive next - cleanup, playtesting, AI improvements then some single-player games.
crashed when i start a skirmish
never mind nice mod
Download now! :)
I wish that there were more updates. I am now almost exclusively playing this mod. I am cutting my teeth on it insofar as learning HW2 scripting. I may continue this mod if it is dead.

So, it has been eight years since I last checked this mod. You had a great idea. I am sorry that it is dead.
