Hello everybody.
I won't lie, not as much has been done as I'd have liked since I finished my exams but I've gotten a good chunk done recently. I've been focusing a lot on restructuring the internal file system of the mod to make it about 20x easier for me to code things, isolate problems and add new files.
As I'm sure many have noticed, I've popped in a few units here and there, and have been redoing models from the content pack I showed last progress report. Reaction has been mixed, people seem to like the models but not so much the textures.
In response to this, I'm going to reiterate what I've said before because it's bugging me a bit. I DON'T texture. I have no desire to learn and unless we get a semi-decent one on the team I'm not going to do anything besides basic saturation/contrast edits. Secondly the pack is huge and provided as a free resource to the community from the very generous Nomada_Firefox and EvilleJedi, so to those who have complained frequently I'd recommend redoing the texture and sending it to me before insulting someone else's work.
Anyway off the negative side, my main three things left to do before 0.5.5 will be released are tweaking the zann consortium to be more pirate consortium, bug and balance fixes, and adding another Galactic Conquest map. I'd like user feedback on what area of space you'd like the new map to focus on!
So far with regards to galactic conquest I have:
- Renamed "A galaxy far far away" to "Total Conquest"
- Made a "Total Conquest" variant with the Pirate faction
- Added a new conquest called "Hydian Sieges"
- Added a variant with the Pirate faction
The Hydian Sieges Map is loosely based off this source. Check it out at Media.moddb.com

I hope this mod is still in the works. We need a proper balancing mod that also expands the Empire and Rebels while bringing the Consortium in line.
If you're still working on this, good luck! Can't wait to see the full version!
COME BACK AND FINISH THIS MOD! IT ROCKS AND IT NEEDS A UPDATE DUDE!
oh and do they work for steam gold and what this joeman ask does this support multiplayer.
unresponsive GC AI and skirmish AI, mod looks pretty good though if they fought back. Any ideas?
uninstall republic at war or any thing like that
Part VI.
My last comments with Empire.
1. Something wrong with Corellian ships. Could build their Destroyer, but now only can build Battlecruiser (something with addon to shipyard).
Battlecruiser eats less population than their Destroyer though.
2. Dreadnought eats 6 population point vs. 8 of ISD1, but is od little use. Not an option with those 6 points.
3. Credits in galaxy are scarce, I like it. Anyway with some 40-50+ planets in my control, I have enough.
4. Rebel AI attacks sporadically. A few times they attacked planets with raids. Two-three times they attacked with fleet (Home One and co). Many times they used bounty hunters.
5. Necessity to capture planet by planet limits AI ability (hyperspace jump radius is low, so no posibility to omit any planet)
So when will there gonna be new version? Mod has potential to be great anyway.
OP told me he'd have an AI working release by july of last year... sigh, hope your not dead.
I need a manual install. The auto installer doesn't like steam
just install it into ...steamapps/common/starwars empireatwar/corruption/mods/foce and move the data so theres no folder between foce and data, you should be fine
