 Posted: Sat Jul 09, 2005 8:23 pm Post subject: ModWorks Concept Mods |
 |
|
I am working on a set of tutorial mods that take advanced modding concepts and provide a concrete implementation of them in an actual mod. The mods will just be stock SEIV + a specific modding concept. The data will be free to use or modify at your heart's content.
So far, these mods are ready for use:
Still planned:
- Hybrid QNP
- Leaky Intel
- Anti-Crew Weapons
- Regenerative Shields
- Emissive Shields
- Scale Mounts
- Colony Tech Trading Prevention
- P&N Style Fixed Maintenance
- Infinite Range Seekers
- Pollution
What else would be good to add?

Unit Mounts? (Use same component for ships, troops and fighters)
Non-weapon mounts in general? (Shield scaling, cheap/quality internals, miniaturization tech, etc)
BTW, leaky intel is a free idea. Use is free and encouraged.

The description for the Space Yard Expansions on its download page is the same as the QNP ones.
When I downloaded the leaky armor mod, the readme.txt file seemed to be corrupted...
Do you think it might be a good idea to collect the modified components to the top of the data file for easier access?

It was a bad link.
The readme is not corrupt, it just has Unix style \n newline characters that the vile Notepad is not capable of interpreting. You'd think that Microsoft would have added support for them by now... Wordpad, also free with every copy of Windows, reads both... The funny thing is that all of the readmes are should be like this, but only some of them have problems in Notepad. Anyways, I've updated all of the mods.
I was trying to keep everything as similar as possible to the unmodded game.

That would be handy.  Please follow the same format for the readme files as established in the first ones.

So these Concept mods are they going to be written up in article format for Modding 101, like QNP, Leaky Shields, and such and added to Chapter 17 ?

The docs for most of the ones finished so far came directly from SEIV Modding 101.

I think Devnull might already serve as a good proof of concept for space monsters.
Can do planet cloaking mechanisms.

Feel free to use the intelprojects.txt from CBmod as a Leaky Intel example mod.
