beghins

I only need a hosting of 15 MByte for give it for downloading, thanks

SvK

This is the HW2 forum for completed mods, so you are in the right place.

Loki

hmm,

Eagle114th

If you dont mind, can you please tell us what your mod is about, along with screen shots? I am very auxious and looking foward to try your mod out! Can't wait!



Eagle out...

Archanon

15 MB isnt much for a mod with new ships.... hod files can be pretty large...

Berrik

His new ships may be using existing ship graphics with new stuff glued onto them like the PDS crew does.

Medivh

that still dont answer the question, What changes are there, shiplist and so on...

BaalRoG

I can host it for you, if you like!
www.haeggalaxy.com

Give me a logo of your mod and i will implement it into the page and create a forum area for it.
And if you like you will get a teamname as a leader to work on it -> Team SciFi20XX Delta...

Team Alpha works on Prophecy for Haegemonia at the moment!
Team Beta works on X-Treme for Nexus at the moment!
Team Gamma works on Fleet Command for Haegemonia together with Project90...

Another Team works on Shock and Awe for CnC, but that isnt sure at the moment!


So, if you like...
But please give me a short info about your mod and what it does.
And surely we have high quality demands for our mods...so i would like to see it first with some other members, if you are interested.

If so, please register on the page and pm me or write me a message (icq -> 86385437)

We are a growing scifi and mod community and want to expand.
Our goals are to make wonderful mods for scifi games

Ragnarokx

Im interested in info about this mod, too

Avatar Terminus

Wow... this sounds...

...complex?

Archanon

@berrik... Well... you'll have to include the hod then also, so that's no argument...

I think this is just a lot of BS.....

beghins

OK,

Thanks BaalRoG, I'm going to contact you.
"Hiigaran Complex" is ready and will be downloadable from www.haeggalaxy.com over the next 2-3 days.

Only I've another task to do... I need the Pipakin,s Hardpoint Editor because I can't download it from server, I think it's off-line; someone can send it to me via mail? beghins@interfree.it

About description, English is not my first language, so I need too much time in writing, I'm sure that someone of you will be glad to make description of new features, ships, ecc. once played "Hiigaran Complex".

Thanks very much, Beghins.

BaalRoG

So didnt you reach me?

gthompsn

@ beghins : your English is pretty decent considering it is not your native language. One of the things I really like about the HW modding community is that people from all over are contributing to it.

basher

where can i get this mod

beghins

Ciao,

Complex 1.0 is ready, I've sent the file yesterday to BaalRoG, I think he's uploading Complex 1.0 on www.haeggalaxy.com right now.
A new post will follow this one once the mod will be uploaded.

BaalRoG

Its ready to be downloaded

beghins

Complex 1.0 available for download.
Thanks to www.haeggalaxy.com for support.

Mithias

You still havent said what this mod does and theres no description on the site either.

beghins

Sorry, a description will follow over the next days.

DatonKallandor

I tried it, its very good. If you can expand the changes to the vaygr it will be one of the top 3 mods.

Only problem is on some of the new maps there are not enough rescources.




Daton

beghins

A new version is nearly ready, and it include Vaygr too.
A bug: in this version the map "Final Core" and "Vail Of Fire" shouldn't be included, only in those ones the resource are not enough, don't play them!

DatonKallandor

Great to hear Vaygr are thought of too.

Great also that I tried 2 maps and it was Final Core and Veil of Fire

A short description of Complex 1.0
Complex is a mod for Homeworld 2 designed for players that like having long, tachtical and complex game matches; it's recommended only for H2 professional gamers, not for who's searching quick deathmatch.
Complex tries to expand all features (research, technologies, abilities, weapons, subsystems, unit characteristics and physics) of the original game without change its game structure.
Complex includes all the features I liked from the H2 community.
Complex rebalances H2, changing costs, time/mode of building and research, introducing new technologies.
Complex introduces new researchs, trying to exploit the H2 script engine to the maximum:
-Weapon damage;
-Weapon aim;
-Drive;
-Cloak strenght, detect and time;
-Repair;
-Shield power, regeneration and time;
-Sensor power, distortion.
Complex includes new units (ships, missiles):
-Intruder;
-Spy;
-XBomber;
-Multigun Corvette;
-Sniper Frigate;
-Shuttle;
-Viper Missile.
Complex includes new subsystems (modules, weapons):
-Harvest Control Module;
-Drive System;
-Advanced Defense System;
-Advanced Repair Module;
-Anti-Radiation Module;
-Plasma Bombs;
-Kinetik Cannon.
Complex includes new multiplayer maps with random generation of scenario.
Complex introduces new gameplay improvements:
-Bounties (grants RU after killing an enemy unit);
-Mining Bases (grants RU after capturing a mining base);
-Selectable Starting Fleet (allows to start with different fleet: small, normal, large, huge);
-Random music;
-Weapon effects, unit characteristics and physics rebalancing.
Complex has been tested for very much time during multiplayer matches; what has been ascertained: the medium time of a match is 2 hours; the medium percentual of research is 60%. This means that the player can choose various development lines (speed, technologies, weapons, ecc.).
Comples has been developed for Internet/LAN gaming only; AI doesn't work, I advice to play against AI (player VS CPU) only for testing and trainig.
Complex actually works only for the Hiigaran race, Vaygr race will be implemented depending of the diffusion of the mod.

Guilmaee

I cant get this mod work. I can select Complex options but i dont find any new units or subsystems.

Sorry my bad spelling.

beghins

Can you select Complex into game (multiplayer or player VS CPU)?
You should be able to view all, but you have to select Hiigaran race too, remember that Complex 1.0 works only for Hiigaran, Vaygr actually is in progress.
If you have any other mod installed you have to remove it.

Ciao...

Guilmaee

No help need anymore. Forgot "-overridebigfile".

Sorry DP

BaalRoG

This mod is great! Thank you that i can host it

Many things could be expanded to make it even more fantastic!
Did you ask some modekllers to use their modells to integrate more units?

Ride

:meh: What!! No Vaygr enhancements! :smash:

Filthy Hiigaran whores!!! :cranky:

--Ride

beghins

Complex 1.1 is available for download, see the first post of this thread for details.
I apologize with who has a slow connection and has to download Complex two times in two days but I've discovered some critical bugs and I've fixed them.
I'm sure that the new version will be Complex 2.0 and will go out the next week; it will include full support for Vaygr.

Thanks, Beghins, ciao...

beghins

Thanks,
really I'm searching for 3D artists that want to cooperate in Complex.
If someone has time to spend in building units, let me know!
These are the improvements I would like to include at the moment:
One big cannon for Mothership (subsystem, like Cataclysm);
Weapon subsystems, still for Mothership (in this case it should be sufficient change the scale to ion, kinetik and plasma bombs just used for Battlecruiser);
Also a big Bomb Vassel (like Juggernaught in DR2, remember?), but this one is too complex and I think it require too much time.

Let me know if someone want join this job, ciao...

BaalRoG

New version is up! 1.1a ready for download!

The Monkey

I love your mod man. Gald someone thought about this! :bandit:

bobafett

hey baalrog i am logged in your site but i can't download complex mod or watch the newsletter, the Members List, Statistics, Journal, Top 10, Top Users, Project Summary

can you help me

BaalRoG

hmm, which browser do you use?
are you logged in as bobafett and have you got the email to authentificate yourself?

voidster

Ill give this mod a shot. What the heck

voidster

Ok 1st impressions. Needs MAJOR work. Just going against a standard AI (vagar) and I as HG, they came in swarming around before i had a chance to really respond. It took WAY too long to build up enough resources and ships to counter attack. Resources are EXTREMELY low for something that is supposed to add to game time. If you fellas intend the resources to stay this low you must change the cost of subsystems, ships and research. Either that or just bump up the resource amounts (i mean seesh the type 4 asteroid is only 1600 :blah: )

good points though, is that many of the research technologies are well thought out, and make quite a bit of sense. (for instance the armor add on research for subsystems and the harvest improvement features)

Definately a good start, but needs a lot of TLC. Im sure once you get the Vagar side completed and update a few odds and ends this mod will be a lot more popular.

beghins

Voidster,

thanks for your analysis. All that you said will be arranged in Complex 2.0, I think it will go out over the next 3-4 days; it will support Vaygr side, and AI too (actually AI is not implemented, is that the reason "you had no chance to respond"
Complex 1.0/1.1 has been tested and created only for Hiigaran VS Hiigaran without CPU, and that's the way to play version 1.1
But, sorry, resource harvesting still will be slow, because that's the philosophy of Complex.


Really I've not understood, resources are very large in Complex (have you set resource cap to high/very high?), may be you've found a bug...

Ciao, Beghins

Snuff

You realize that we have to become members of www.haeggalaxy.com in order to download this mod, don't you?

Mr. Pete

voidster

beghins

Tried it again, This time i focused a bit more on that Anti-cap ship missile. Wow that made short work outta the opponents. :evilnod:
I didnt see very high listed under the resource option, ill check it again.

Looking foreward to the update fellas,
void

beghins

Ciao,

voidster,

In multiplayer menu you have to select "Complex" instead of "deathmatch" like game type elsewere the game rules don't work... this is another inperfection that I'm going to fix, thanks

BaalRoG

sure, because i cant support a download for thousands of people...
thats why onlay members can download... traffic is expensive...
sorry

Snuff

Help anyone??

beghins

Snuff,

wait for Complex 2.0, I'm going to upload right now, your problem should be fixed.

Snuff

Well thanks Beghins.

I know that I'm not a dummy when it comes to sorting through most of this, but that error is completely alien to me. So even though I could FIND the error, I couldn't DO anything about it. :argh:

By the way, the HW2 log complained about the Gun & Ion turrets having repairability but not having repair points. I fixed that error in mine by simply removing the "Canberepaired" bit. Didn't know if you knew that or not.

I look forward to playing your mod. I may be a part of PDS, but I always like to test out cool ideas.
