Tactical Fleet Simulator 3G Mod Description:
Tactical Fleet Simulator (TFS) is a complex, total overhaul of Homeworld2 with the objective of transforming the game into a tactics-oriented combat simulator. The large selection of units and the high attrition rates combatants suffer greatly enhances the tactical level of gameplay while still retaining real-time strategy elements. Recurring themes are quasi-modern air and naval doctrines modified for three-dimensional movement, complete with a proper unit classification scheme. Grand strategy plays a significant role, with the emphasize on battlefield adaptability, simulated by the large amount of available assets with similar albeit different roles which requires one to be familiarized with specific acronyms and unit types to maintain flexibility. All of this simulates a more immersing, realistic, adrenaline-soaked game experience that the stock version of Homeworld2 failed to deliver. TFS provides Homeworld2 with a relatively balanced, stable and much desired militaristic look and feel.
TFS Features:
The provision of new, more complex strategies and tactics.
Split-second decisions of what units to build and when to deploy.
Exhausting battles add to the fatigue of simulated combat.
New ships, weapon systems, abilities and attack behaviors.
Dynamic weapon systems, unit mobility and far more realistic three-dimensional movement.
A vast and complex unit selection, each with differing or a slight variance in their role.
New game modes and game options prolong the entertainment factor.
More realistic weapon damage relative to ship armor/health.

Neo-Taiidani Imperial State
(Concept design and models by Battlecry) The Neo-Imperial Taiidan State has emerged from the Vaygr Federation as a semi-autonomous faction after the great war. Among their priorities is the reconstruction of their interstellar empire on a new basis. While nominally still a faction of the greater Vaygr federation, the new Imperial state is moving to
secure full autonomy and dissolve the Vaygr into a loose confederation of spacefaring civilizations. Among its first acts was the establishment of a vast spacecraft and weapon design and production agency enabling the development and mass production of craft more advanced than the standard Vaygr combat craft. The new Taiidan empire has taken advantage of various Vaygr technologies such as pulse-laser cannons and advanced missiles, further refining them to their specifications resulting in advanced micro-missile technology and improved traditional Taiidani weapon systems as mass drivers.
Caylian Federation
(Ship design and models by Flogger23m) The Caylian are a spacefaring civilization from the outer rim with technology comparable to standard Hiigaran and Vaygr ships. Caylian doctrine places an emphasis on high-powered plasma-based weaponry and agile frigates.

how can i play online?
It is really straightforward. In the Homeworld 2 menu, click on the multiplayer tab then select gamespy. You usually have to ask the players in there if they have TFS, but every now and then you should find one who has it.
I've downloaded, extracted the files and did all the stuff but when i modify the shortcut ( -mod TFSv2.6.big),c and then click it I jet get reg HW2. wht am i doing wrong?
