Gundam Mod v3.0 Formally Released

[death_ab]

Heh...

And a V Gundam won't?

but lets bee serious, this is a UC mod and SEED has no place in it. Now if someone went and made a SEED mod that would be fun as well but compairing the two dosn't really work all that well.

Just a small nitpick to whoever did the Engilsh big.
Any reason you made the restrictions for the special unit by a unit class rather then pilot name? (Ive changed mine manually)

Overall i find this gamre rather fun though there are still a few annoing things...

Like the GP01fb being classed as a corvette causing it to be untargetable by all the weapons that would realy harm it, (Including the burrok) and that there is no limit on the number of GP01fb's you can field.

That and the build times of the latter generation Zeon units. its almost imposible to get enought of them out to counter a late game rush

[Shrimpcraft]

Yea i agree with death to a certain extent, like how special/hero classes should be limited to only 1 unit per build....and classes need to be targeted with the appropiate weapons.

BUT, the nitpicking part from u about zeon cant counter late game rush is totally unagreeable. when the zeon can build the the platform subsystem and they first build the dom and dom tropen...those things does massive dmg...esp the rick dom cause they got longer range than GM cannon and dmg wise are much much more heavier. and if u reserach fast enough to get char's customizable dom that thing owns literally everything. Plus, doesnt it sound just like the anime where zeon tried rushing new and capable MS to counter the feddies but were too late to actually turn the tides of the war?

For my nitpicking part...if gelgoog's supposed to have about the same stats as gundam in terms of firepower and mobility...i think AK should beef gelgoog a bit cause its pretty darn weak right now ~_~.


PS- on and as for sicksaddave2, char's customized rick dom is actually a msv :P so there ARE actually MSV in the game XD

I'm facing a strange problem on setting up weapons. I set the hit rate of many weapons to 100% when they are going against capital ships, but when I test them in game, the bullet just flow by the ship, not hitting them(and don't make damage to the target).I tried many ways to slove this but I failed. Does anybody here know why and how to slove this?

The picture is here

[DatonKallandor]

The shots try to hit a point that is not on the ships mesh. A common problem.


Daton

[Kou Uraki]

that dont seem to be a problem AK. I dont really thing if a ship misses a few shots that itll be a serious issue.

[Dyson]

Every shot counts on war but its hard to believe that a small craft can miss such a big target, its like playing any star wars game, shoot a star destroyer and miss the shot, if that happens, you deserve to be shot down but if it is a big ship which misses the shot, yes, its not a big problem

Willing to see Zeons new ass kickers.

SIEG ZEON

[Shrimpcraft]

Funny how no one checked that chinese site lately :angel:
Anyways, AK just posted some new screenies with new wpn effects about 3 days ago:

[Dyson]

may that be the very first anty rush mothership? hope zeon has one too... A Baoa Qu?

I still prefer the Albion, white base is too retro :S

[mazinger]

Hi guys, im new to this, been looking forward to this mod ever since my friend told me about it (as im a big Gundam fan), so i downloaded 2.5mod, and install it like it say here (Installation: extract the gundam_mod2.5.tzj into your homeworld2\data folder, then open the english version folder
and extract the english.big file into your homeworld2\data folder as well. Lastly, extract the gundam_mod2.5.bat file
into your homeworld2\bin\release folder. To start up the mod after all these steps have been taken, just double click
the gundam_mod2.5.bat file) the only problem is everytime i try to start the game by double click on the gundam_mod2.5 bat file, all i get is a dos command box for an second or so, and that it, nothing else happen, am i doing something wrong here?

any help will be very grateful..

Regards
maz

when we test our new weapons on the orginal ships, the can hit their target correctly, but when we try that on our new ships, they don't hit their target, just fly by them.
So I'm thinking about this, look at the picture down there,
the red area is inside the contours but complately empty, some of the missing bullets went thought these areas, so I wondered if these areas caused the missing. the orginal ships were set up in regularly shapes so there isn't or just a few such areas, so they don't have this kind of problems.
If anybody has ideas about this, Please tell us as soon as possible. We'll never be thankfull enough for that

[Death_Sheep]

So I'm guwessing a collision detection problem?

[death_ab]

No, its not a collison detection error.

That would be it passing through the actual ship.

Talk to Eviljedi i think he worked something out when he was playing with the Collision meshes.

[sicksaddave2]

Magziner,

Follow instruction on p.56. People need to look at the log before we can find out what's wrong with it

[AK47_TZJ]

The HOHO problem has already all resolved.Thank milaoshu 04

[Shrimpcraft]

haha i like how yuxinniu in the other forum praised AK:

"战舰终于有象样的炮火效果了！ 超级期待啊！！ 太帅了！几乎完美了喔！ 戈戈虎！你已经无人可挡了！你已经变态了！你已经超越神了！"

Translation:
"The warships are finally getting the right weapons effect! I can't wait for this!! Too GOOD! Basically perfect! Ak47_TZJ (戈戈虎 is his nick in that forum)! No one can stop you now! U've become a hentai (monster)! You have surpassed god!"


thats basically my thoughts too =) "我崇拜您!" LOL

[Guyffon]

I tot hentai = pervert in jap translation, Anyway I still thhink that the scale of the ships are a bit too big. hope they can correct this

[Kurimuzon]

hentai can mean a few different things, but along the same lines. Such as weird or strange, but pervert is one way of translating it. Kinda context based thing from what I understand. Anyway...go Gundam! Go Gundam team! *insert fanfare*

[Kou Uraki]

can we PLEASE stay on topic?! at least AK's progressing as planned.

[Dyson]

Well, ships are indeed BIG on the series, just like the MS, so just keep them the way they are and have fun destroying them... :P

[maxdamage]

Can't seem to download v2.5?The ftp is out of the question and both the download links at the http://files.moddb.com/750/ page are busy or won't allow me to carry-on the download as I have d/l 63% of the mod through the planet mirror link but now the page wont load properly for me to carry-on d/l it :cranky:

My d/l manager is unregistered version of getright.

maxdamage.

[Kou Uraki]

file works fine for me, maxdamage. which link did u choose?

[maxdamage]

I'm using the planetmirror link but for some reason it did not work all the time when resuming the download for it?
I used filemirrors to get the link again and this is it:

[http://downloads.planetmirror.com/pu...AM_MOD2.5.rar]

I had to re-download it from the beginning as I lost it but now it seems okay now!


maxdamage.

[Racaillum]

For some reason when I chose a diferent game type the game craches

[Natopo]

Why is this mod not on ModDB anymore?

Oh, and when will you have a .big version of this?

[Kou Uraki]

what r u talking about Natopo, the link for it is right above u

[Natopo]

That link doesn't work, but I know where the one that does work is. However, it is not in the ModDB for Homeworld 2 directly. They don't have a link for it in the list. And that link is .rar, which I wasn't asking for.

[Homdax]

I have put it up for download on a location of mine.
I have not completely lost track of this mod, guys.

Link:

http://71.18.20.158/hw2mods/GUNDAM_MOD2.5.rar

[Natopo]

Why does it download as a text file.

[Kou Uraki]

ok, totally different prospect here. Now it sounds like u dont have WinRAR. U need winRAR to upen RAR folders. Its jus like winzip, but better.

[Homdax]

I should repack it both as a .big and in to a rar'ed zip.
Kou, You can create .zip files with WinRar, you know...?
Even selfextracting.

[Natopo]

That would be very nice :mod: .

[maxdamage]

d/l the mod and WOW!Cool! :thumb::thumb:



maxdamage.

[RGM-79N]

i'm just wondering...but is there some way to use this mod without the batch file like linking it to the original homeworld2.exe file? i really do not mind reinstalling the game.

[maxdamage]

Rename the file gundam_2.5.tzj to gundam_2.5.big and there you go!


maxdamage.

[RGM-79N]

er...that doesn't work. It just loads up the regular game.

[death_ab]

natopo, your using a Mac arn't you (To download it)

Though i guess PC's might have the same problem


Just 'save as' and/or rename the file after download

[Death_Sheep]

Oh man, Zeon just bet me to a bloody pulp... Tri-Stars... soo..... many.....

[Kou Uraki]

lol, i fixed that problem with me a long time ago. you should consider doing so as well. i put a 1 ship limit fro all the hero mobile suits and mobile armors. well, then again i also heavily modified the hiigarans and vaygrs so they can stand a chance against the EFSF and Zeon, but thats another story. you gotta modify the unitcaps luas.

[Shrimpcraft]

nah screw unit cap :P when ur good u can still take on many tristar with MASSIVE AMOUNT OF GM :P

maxdamage.

use the standard shortcut for loading mods into HW2:
""C:\Program Files\Sierra\Homeworld2\Bin\Release\Homeworld2.exe" -mod gundam_2.5.big -luatrace"
and it should work!!!!



maxdamage.

[Smashbro964]

[maxdamage]

Look in the first post for this topic to see if there is a main website for mod...
