Those amongst you may remember a Star Trek Armada 1 mod that was made many years that went unfinished (it was aprox. 75% completed). Well with a new game and game engine to mod comes a bigger and, hopefully, more complete version. WCI is now being slowly compiled for the Star Wars Empire at War expansion and is going to be solely a space based conversion. We are recreating a majority of the stock WC models to better fit the needs of the game engine and there is going to be significant usage of the capital ship fighter launch capabilities. There is going to be extensive changes to as much of the game as possible and news updates will be posted here, so stand by...... and stay tuned.
Description
- Fixed issues with Z-position of different layers so ships of different layers won't collide. - Fixed AI so build time dramatically decreased. - Fixed other minor errors - View changelog for more information.

Wing Commander Invasion 2.65 Changelog
- nitromon
- Do not need patch 2.6, this overwrites it.
- Changed all Z layer for each type to prevent graphics collision.
- Nephilim -
- Changes just to prevent collision. Nephilims shapes and size makes their shiplayer difficult to set.
- Hydra changed to capital
- Orca changed to capital space layer, but class remains frigate. (Too much issue keeping it on a frigate layer b/c of size)
- Tiamat will have some collision b/c the claw diameter is just too huge. Also it looks more realistic at times having starships inside the claw. For this reason, the Z adjustment for Tiamat and Tiamat hero is not set lower than the current setting.
- Kilrathi -
- Changes mostly due to size. Makes sense smaller ships are on higher layers.
- shaalkhar changed to a capital
- Kamekha changed to a frigate. Fixed issue where kamekha models remains after death.
- Rak' Shaal'ar changed to a frigate (swapped with Fralthi D)
- Fralthi D changed to a capital
- Ralaxath changed to a frigate
- Shavier changed to a supercapital shiplayer
- Confed -
- Changed Durango to a Frigate. Not b/c of size, but because it is G1.
- Increased Ranger scale to 720m, spacelayer to frigate
- Increased Hades scale to 777m
- Changed Nimitz to a corvette.
- Fix Pelican, correctly removed lifetime limit, reduced healing 50%, limit 2
- AI -

- This is simply a balancing and correction patch. I take no credit other than the changes I've made. The original mod was created and developed by mapayne.
So far man looking good keep up the work your doing i know this is so beta but the ships need that im ship not a cartoon, if i could help i wound sadly i do not have the art of making ships look more like ships. Keep it up and the ships would look like armored ship.
Very good.
Deleted patch 2.6 download since 2.65 replaces it.
