yea like i said it would take a long time but they could split their resources every once in a while and come up with a few small MP additions like every few months. If they're mainly focused on MP adjustments and whatnot I would be willing to help with programming. I am taking basic programming at the moment and intend to go advanced next year. if they won't accept me ... then i guess I would have to come up with another idea. But, I understand what I am saying I KNOW how long this could take even working people to specific parts, but you have to admit that this would be the greatest SP mod in history of Homeworld. If 9ccn will not accept me for just my basic coding skills then I guess I would have to start it. I might think about getting some of my class members to help me out with this. We are supposed to be coming up with some kind of addition to- or mod to- a program. So this could be my big break. If anyone else would be willing to help that would be great too. But, at the moment, I don't have much to go on this idea yet. So if anyone wants to help out just email me with a few storylines (jenn6969@mail2world.com) and we could make a great project out of this and will surely be recognised for our "great skills" XD. Any way, everything starts out as an idea, and if this is not a good one I understand. Because, the FX guys are mostly about MP modding and it is not likely they will want this project any way.
Don't forget that a lot of the modders are Chinese.
...and they are having great difficulty with forming correct english sentences, so I would doubt they let you in, but why not try and mod it yourself for a bit, and send them your work? As long as you don't publish it, you won't have any problems and they might give you a green light if it fits within their POV.
Hi Sajuuk!![]()
... lo exile ^^![]()
Now I feel left out...
What really needs to happen is for some people get a private beta sent to them so that they can go in and proof everything and make sure everything is grammatically and logically coherent.
If that happened I would be first in line.

No me Total,I have the ability to use spellcheck. All though I barley need it.
![]()
Hehe Total is right, someone needs to improve the wording on it all. No offence to the hard effort of the creators, but sometimes the wording is just either hilarious or nonsensical. Take the SP mission :P. Sending beta versions to english-speaking people will be a very good way of insuring that the wording improves and that things can be viewed from a player perspective whilst still working on the next version.
Not me Total, I have the ability to use a spellcheck.All thoughalthough Ibarleybarely need to use it.Total
to ShayDay- -
It's really a great idea
Email the 9CCN,we will discuss about that
Am I in the group, or is it just a group hug?
It is my firm belief that any product to be released to the public needs to have an extremely thorough spell-check and grammar checks by several members of the team that are a bit more fluent in proper English.
Whichever you wish.
hello Exileand ariathan, please take a look at the HW3 prohect as well
you'll like it...and yeah, we're all in the group since we're all involved in one way or another

Yea the only way were involved is downloading the mod, playing it (online or offline). Also commenting on whats good, what can be done better all the same things for any other mod.

3 Group hugs (If only you could join them together).
Gotta agree with Total Entrophy, the mod really needs to be checked on grammer and spelling alike. So, maybe the 9CCN team can select a few people to help them with the english translations. All big projects have several translators to...translate, after all
As for ShayDay's idea on a SP campaign for each race, it would be a very nice addition, but we have to pinpoint what the posibilites are. Instead of an entire campaign, maybe each race could have a 'scenario' like example 3-5 missions? I know it wouldn't be able to include much storyline then, but it's either several small campaigns on one big one in my opinion. Maybe it is an idea to have a 'big' campaign and pick the race who you play with at the start of it? (just like hw1 single-player)

Technical support, questions, suggestions, events, tournaments and more all goes on the forum (first link)
Please do not PM me here or at ModDB regarding any of these.
I know that the Fxmod team has made a mission in the tutorial mode which is good.
Also if 9CCN does do this English idea I would like to be a part of it. English is my first language, I was born in England after all. All though I can't mod. Or anything.
You pointing at the 'Eden' tutorial mission in 1.72? Good mission, served very well even if it was just a 'test mission' as they call it. Maybe some slight changes and it can be included in the campaign already.
Yea, I had a difficulty when I first tried it, then second time I pwned/owned (the usual).
Due to my skill of completing the Homeworlds many times.
Oh the mission itself is quite good, only due to the wording I don't know what I'm supposed to do half of the time...
I suggest that you post any development ideas, including fixing the 'all your base' issue, should be directed at their development forum. You will have to, of course, learn Mandarin to do so - otherwise you too will perform an 'all your base' in the other direction.
There will be no issue of players using the mod, though - there are (and will be) many many many HW2 players on the Chinese Mainland.

It's not that the wording is really a problem, but as Total said, most projects undergo rigorous spelling/grammar checks before released to the public.
In this case, their 'rigorous spelling/grammar checks' are most likely with the Mandarin language. I see no problem with thisI wasn't aiming that solely at you, though, Ariathan, but at all of us English speaking users who are going around with a certain air of 'must be in English, and Queens English at that' mentality.
Not at all, but a certain degree of proper english use will only improve the quality and realism (as in the feel) of the mod. As you have stated several times before, "All Your Base" made sure that the game Zero Wing would be the next best internet mock, which I'm sure wasn't what the creators intended for it. Considering that many people here, including myself, have volunteered to improve the "All your base" quality english, I can't see the problem, since it will definatly improve the credibility of the mod.
This is merely meant as a suggestive show of support, rather than a direct order.
For English speaking users... This most certainly will not be a problem for Mandarin users. Again, this is a type of 'must be in English to be good' mentality. If there is a problem with their use of the English language in this MOD, fix it and pass on your fixes.Originally Posted by Ariathan
Again, that was not directed at you Ariathan, but to all English users of this MOD who feel the need to point out (and complain about) something that only affects the English users of the MOD.
As I've suggested before, bring this issue up on their dedicated Mandarin development forum - but be careful with your Mandarin...
My Mandarin is non-existant. I think you'll find similair responses to this from other users.
zomg...leave these alone, I mean, they have enough work to do atm, and one can ignore a few spelling bugz...
"a few"? Maybe you should consider playing it.
But yeah 'nuff said.
Well, Miraluka, I've been playing it for a very long time since v1.72 was released, and it has a lot more few bugs than v1.71...so that's quite a progress
Yeah you're right, but there's always room for improvement. That's why were here.
I was being sarcastic.

Thread cleaned up a bit. We are not a chatroom, people.

WTF has happened here when I was gone??!!
I think you will find it here: http://zhihuiguan.com/bbs/thread.php?fid=15&page=1Yeah sure.
There is no "Official" FX website, as far as I can tell they very rarely post stuff on several threads in three forums. That Mandarin forum Rev Species 116 keeps linking people to (???) seems to be their "home".
audio issues that i found - i no longer hear battle chatter or acknowledgments from vaygr and hiig ships. any idea how i can fix that?
um try going to options and going to audio and putting battle chatter full up. that might help ^^

Hi All!!!!
Will be Race Somtaaw the FXmod
P.S. Sorry I Bad Speeak To English
yea, and a Beast race and a Bentusi race. Welcome to the forums CombineStorm.
To be quite honest, I've never seen so many people join relic forums, like, a month ago its was around about 22,000 people who was joined with relic forums. Now its around about 25,000 people.
realli beast and somtaaw gunna be in? cool! i love the beast they just weird and a cool way ^^
hazzer9, we only have a few pics of possible Beast ships, and the Bentusi are definitely going to be in at one point. A Somtaaw ship is already in the game, the Kadesh Ion Cruiser. I don't think that Kiith Somtaaw will have a separate race, because they are simply Hiigarans, it runs in the same vein as the 'will there be Kushan' question...and the answer is probably not because they are part of the same race.
Its a pity really, I wanted the Kushan to be in the mod, they had great ships....I've always wanted to see who was better: Kushan or Hiigaran, most would probably say Hiigarans, but I think deep down Kushan ships were the best.
Also another reason why Kushans should be in the mod is because: unless the FXmod team make a story for the mod. The Kushans should be in the mod. You could say that the Taiidan can't be in the mod because the Vaygar took over them because the Taiidan had no leader.
In the end its the FXmod team making it not us, were here to help them and give ideas and not to dictate.

Point is? You could at least agree with me or go against the idea. I mean for number 1, I was 2 posts above.
P.S: what the heck is the roll eyes about??? I honestly don't get your post. Sorry but I just don't.

ANyways time to butt in here but i tried to use their stuff to get the Taiidan MS in sp by editing the Acension thing for mission 2. I replaced the line with the hig ms for the taiidan one but i got jack. no hyperspacing in ms nothing.I hope the makers of the mod have better experience adding seperate campigns. Cause im a noobie when it comes to that =) I tried lol.

If you still don't get it.
This is the fourth time we've read a request for adding the Kushan. You participated in atleast one of those. It's getting a bit repetative. 9CCN said no, that means no.
I have 50 posts per page and all I saw was Beast and LevitansWrath saying that we should have Kushan.
Note I'm not regarding Totals post.
Your post.
