Vader's Fist ! In-game Screenshot #6ter image - Star Wars Frontlines - The Galactic Civil War mod for Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts
Witness the major conflicts fought during the Galactic Civil War between the Rebel Alliance that seeks to restore order in the galaxy and the Galactic Empire that dominates the galaxy at its whim. The Mod allows you to play as the Galactic Empire or the Rebel Alliance, in the civil war that occurs two decades after the Clone wars and the Great Jedi purge as depicted in the original Star Wars trilogy, Andor, Rogue One, Solo, and Extended Universe lore. It is one of the most ambitious total conversion for multi award-winning rts Company Of Heroes, with unique, quality custom content and original gameplay. Version 1.0 out now!
Guess who are there ? 501st veterans ! Hell yeah they look awesome.
So no more recycled material : what you are going to see in the next week is all fresh and new stuff, like updated models, extra gear, and new units like this one !
Yes, we're definitely moving towards the next step we are all waiting for.
And guess what ? I wrote on the last screenshot that I was hoping it would be the last with vanilla fx.
It's done. We have lasers. But they go too fast to be captured on a screenshot ! :D
Ah the mighty 501st cant wait to squash the rebels >:D
Awesome! Maybe you could upload a short video on Moddb showing the lasers? Would be pretty cool.
Eheh, what do you think ? We will of course !
Good to hear mate. I know this may sound a bit annoying, but could you please try to credit those who were involved with the making of this content as much as possible. I would like to know who made what, so I can ask for futher reference.
The mod looks more promising with each update. Keep the fire of passion burning lads.
I don't really get you on the credit part... We're only 3 working on the mod, and everything you see is custom made.
Ebonhawk does pretty much all the art. SirPsycho (zombie mod) is helping him with the importing work and a lot of art-related things. I am in charge of modding the game stats and managing moddb (reason why you see mostly me and not the other two).
There is no port/content ripping from other games or mod. It's all done by our hands :)
See the end of the last article (displayed on the main page).
Hope this answers some of your questions ;)
Correction : some of the 2d artworks were found on the internet. In that case it is very difficult to give credit, but they mostly come from fanarts or illustrated SW novels. Such artworks can be found on wookiepedia for example.
I see, no worries. I might have given the wrong impression. I'm not trying to accuse you of stealing or ripping of any sorts. It's just for clarity's sake that usually other mods put the authors in the description of each picture, so we are reminded who is to be credited.
I guess it is up to you if you would add that little detail in each description every time you upload some new content. It's kind of a modding custom, but feel free to ignore it.
Cheers!
This looks amazing man!!! Keep up the good work!!!
The troopers look great, although I hate to do this, but you have the 501st commander skin as the default rather than the standard trooper skin here Vignette.wikia.nocookie.net. Other than that the mod is coming along great
Oh, is it such a big deal, considering that the commander isn't playable in the mod ? ^^
Well you could use the Commander skin for a sergeant of a 501st squad or just have a special unit like the British did in the base vanilla game
I second Blackfalcon501's point. Besides,changing the texture to the canon 501st should be easy.
I copy that. It's not difficult but time consuming. We will change them when we can.
Of course, there is no rush
Will reinforcements arrive in shuttles or drop pods? Also, are you working on hovering mechanics-ish?
Drop pods are planned for the Imperial Navy, but not soon.
And a tank without tracks is basically a hovertank. Check DoW2 eldars tanks ;)
One more question, will construction units have astromech droids with them? Or some sort of droid?
Planned. We have a R2 model :)
