What a pleasant suprise to see. Another mod archived. Thanks Raygoza for the upload!
I downloaded everything I could from sites several years ago and managed to download a lot despite many dead links. Some mods were available at some place while it had dead links at other places.
Many years ago I also tried downloading every HW2 mod on moddb. Too many mod pages but still many had mods that didn't seem good, ecause they were so many I stopped, never got to the Territories mod either.
I have Path to Victory v0.04 and the H*A*C*S mod which can't be downloaded from elsewhere.
Its a good thing to do, since everything on the internet dont exist forever. Many sites, games, mods and other files from the 90s and ealry 2000s are either in decay or are gone, so saving files like this is a must.
By the way, if you happen to have Homeworld Cataclysm mods, i would totaly appriciate the help in archiving them as well.
Oh also, you can also upload that Path of Victory mod here as well. This modDb page is for archiving all those mods.
Wow! T vs K MOD! I Thought this was lost forever. I only have a hand full of those old models here. Lost everything over the years. Tickled to death to see it still around. I don't know what happened to the other half of the team. Haven't heard from him since then. 2001 or 2002 I believe.
At the time I was still working on updating some Kadesh models and also some updates for the Raiders. Never got around to implementing any of the newer stuff.
Its amazing to have one of the team members of a project posting a comment here :D
But yeah, since Jst-Online's shutdown, alot of mods where lost, and many still are.
Its one of my goals now, to preserve history. You dont happen to have Homeworld Cataclysm mods laying around? A majority of those mods havent been found yet.
All HWC mods I have are Turanic Prowlers, Onslaught, Rebirth, Rebalance, Turanic vs Kadesh and Beast Balance mods.
Onslaught and Rebirth already exist as downloadables on ModDb, altoguh i dont know how recent Rebirth is, so you can upload all of the Cataclysm mods regardless.
Turanic Prowlers are one of the mods that i didnt managed to make a backup on so it be appriciative that you uplod it here.
I'm impressed at your dedication. If I run across any I'll definitely give you a shout :)
...I've just downloaded and looked through the ships in this mod. This is not the original finished T vs K mod. Many of the Kadesh ships are mine (not all) but the Turanic side is lacking many of the original ships. Someone has replaced a lot of the original ships. My Turanic mothership and frigate repair scaffold are not here either.
We did not use any derelict ships, Kushan ships, or Taidan ships but someone has replaced several original models with them.
What I think happened: Someone acquired the mod 'in progress'. Possibly one of the few people we had helping, and finished it hap hazard. The original finished mod probably came out after this one. This one is a pre MOD WIP pieced together by someone.
A shame. I was hoping to see all the old models we made. I lost my copy a few years ago because of an error in judgment on my part. I accidentally deleted it during a PC upgrade.
Darn, thats unfortunate. A similar incident would have happened to my 3 armed Acolyte mod if it wasnt for a backup CD i made during school of 2003. I wish that you had the same luck.
But yeah, your theory of what could have happened seems very likely. Finding old mods that are still up or having them on backup is difficult to find. I know i sould have tons of cataclysm mods in one of the backup discs somewhere, but they are all unlabeled and across all over the place, so going through them would be difficult to say the least.
How do I use/install this mod? Do I just extract it to the homeworld directory?
Yeah, simply extract the content into the homeworld folder (Files like R1, R2 and the other files) directly. the game will automaticly use them upon running the game.
If you have homeworld classic from steam however, you may need a command line for it to work.
