This is it! I have finished up the mod. All the bits are finished and i polished a few things that i was unhappy with.
I apologize for the longer delay, but i was attacked by two guys and my car was wrecked on the 14th of December and i was out of action for a while.
There aren't many changes. In addition to finishing all the probes, megs and subs, i made minor changes to the hiigaran carrier, bc and resource collector.

If you have any suggestions or if you think i missed something, add them below. To install, unrar the bigfile into the homeworld2/data folder and go to the homeworld2/bin/release folder. Find the homeworld2 executable and make a shortcut of it, on the desktop or wherever you want. Right click the shortcut and go to its properties.
Add the following to the target field: -mod UltraV1.big -luatrace -hardwarecursor -w 1920 -h 1080. Obviously replace the 1920 and 1080 with the particulars of your resolution. You can also add -determcompplayer, this supposedly makes the cpu players more challenging. Make sure there is a space before each "-". Run the shortcut.
Make sure that you are running homeworld 2 V1.1. The mod does not work if homeworld 2 is not updated. also make sure that shadows are switched on in the game options. If you have problems, please feel free to send me a private message detailing your problem and include the HW2.log file, as this expedites finding a solution.
Searching theoretical here. Could your upgrades be used in a first person cockpit mod(if such a mod is possible in Homeworld 2)?
There was a mod made years ago that allowed you to fly around with a fighter. that mod did not have a cockpit though and i'm not sure how you would go about making one either. if you could make one and render it as a ship or part thereof, then sure, it would be possible. actually combining the freemod with uhg and adding a cockpit mesh to a ship where the camera is placed would do it. you would not have a live cockpit with readings and flight data though. only a frame. and you can't have a material that looks like glass in homeworld2.
Amazing! Thanks for update. <3
Thank you , ,ty thank you !!!

nice, good work ... now this game is getting younger :)
This looks promising, but it crashes within 2 minutes of starting. From what I saw it looks very good though. I'll wait for the next stable release.

Thank you so much for this, so far it works perfectly!
gonna give this a spin, that video is crazy! nice work \m/\m/
Thanks a lot dude!
Damn good job. Thanks a lot. Only change I would make is to include an installation readme and link to this site in the ZIP file so everybody knows how to install (without having to look at this page again) and where to go if they need any help.
Thanks again
thanx, i'll do that with next version :D
can this mod be combined with something like complex 9.1?
no. i have to do the same thing with any other mod. also complex already pushes beyond the game's limits and i think the performance will be terrible.
I installed the mod as instructed but I keep getting a almost tv static effect on all the models :( please help
I'd love to help you out, please send me a copy of your game's log file as well as a picture of the misbehaviour you are experiencing via private message and i will see if i can figure out what is wrong.
Hi,just wondering if it is possible to combine this modification with star wars warlords?
Sorry, but this just looks awful. Tragic even.
Bumping sharpness of a texture to insane amounts is NOT how you turn it "HD"...
