This mod catapults Empire at War into 2077. It maintains the game's design philosophy, while adding new units, better graphics, and deeper gameplay.
With the new light texture used in the new ISD model, a few other ships are being updated with the new look. First up was adding a light mesh to the Acclamator and updating the Nebula.
More to come later.
Interesting, it seems that the textures adapt really good, so the Nebula can make a come back. I also would like to see some turrets present in the Acclamator hull, not something excessive (edit), like the Imperial Vigil scout, messed the name with the Gladiator.
Acclamator just like the Gladiator and Vindicator does not and has no plans to have turrets. For both gameplay and performance reasons.
Thanks, I messed the name, I said Gladiator, while I was thinking about the Vigil scout.
Good day,
As for ISD those small turrets, will they be replaced by indestructible hardpoints? It seems like heavy nerf to ISD to loose 27 dual turbolasers :( and all guaranteed firepower.
Thank you
The firepower of the lost turrets has been accounted for, the weapon bank firing speed was increased to match the original damage output.
Ty for replay, forgot to log in.
Firepower is no problem i would say. But as i was playing.
Noticed that balance issue, when AI left my ISDs with 1 2 ion cannons and left, so they cant really do anything. Most of the frigates or capital ships has some lasers or TLs that cant be targetted (MC80 has tlose small lasers etc). SO maybe adding 2 more untargetable broadside turbolasers on each side? So it is worth to take them down and not leave them? Or maybe on upper structure so fire comes from everywhere.
otherwise, runs great, looks great. Love this mod.
Those ISD details are amazing and that touch on little curved shield domes. damn.
Seems to i cant edit.
And it seemed wasteful to sacrifice ISDs that only has hangar, shield and ion cannon in 1 side etc, so my pop cap is back again.
oooooooooo new ships i see looks great
Beautiful.
