Quick synopsis

This mod introduces the colonial and cylon factions to the Sins of the Fallen universe. Both races will be playable with any of the planets, addons, and races included in Sins of the Fallen including the stock races. Both the colonial and cylon's factions will be balanced against the stock factions to support this approach. 

 

Colonial Fleet

Relying on heavily armored and armed ships the colonial fleet is always on the defense looking for cylon incursions. Lacking shields of any kind Battlestar Point Defense systems are used to intercept incoming weapons and minimize damage to nearby frigates and cruisers supporting the fleet.

Quoting EternalRequiem, reply 298

Quoting Mord_Sith84, reply 297Sorry if I've missed something here, but with the Boomer and the Cylon colony as Titans, does that mean that they won't be playable until Rebellion comes out?

no, I would think they would be playable just we wouldn't be able to implement them in the way Rebellion will until it comes out. That being the super large ship with awesome abilities of taking fleets on by itself and the new abilities that come with it. Also the ships having a 5th ability slot.

At the moment we can't do super large ships because the pathing and grouping AI in the game for ships makes for very, very bad space traffic jams.

I'll come up with something original ;)

I hope you both don't mind but I thought i would give your Warstar a makeover:

Warstar Organic

warstar

warstar 1

 

Still needs some work but i hope you get the Idea (and hopefully like)

Galactic Civilizations IV

That looks interesting.

Reply #305 from Sins Forums Top

They both look good I think.... Ultimately up to ZombieRus5 to decide...

Reply #306 from Sins Forums Top

Well so far I like Koobalts in terms of getting a consistent look.

Here is what I scrapped together after I tossed several of the textures I though were good but were too fuzzy.

Interesting frigate idea I saw online...

Reply #308 from Sins Forums Top

Looks good ZombiesRus. I was wondering if you have ever seen the Colonial Warbook pdf. that is on the Wolf shipyards forum. It has some cylon Gunstar size ships from the first cylon war that might work for sin's.

Reply #309 from Sins Forums Top

About my starbase i found a way to make it even better (as less random where the detail go) so when i have some time i will make one more uv/seg, perhaps it will be even better.

Ya, I'd like to have some of the stuff in that... Unfortunately pictures can't be turned into models ;)

Cool, because right now I think I like that texture the most.

WOW - love the WarStar base texture and the frigate idea.... soooo cool!!!

Reply #314 from Sins Forums Top

The frigate looks like a streamlined design, could function as a fast and maneuverable attack vessel?

Yeah something that can move in fast and deliver a large swarm of missiles in one go at a single target. It's downside would be lighter armour and due to its large launcher count a slower reload time. Excellent strike craft.

Love it.

How many more ship slots do you have to fill ZombieRus? Need any more ideas?

Reply #319 from Sins Forums Top

@Koobalt - Did you keep this model? Was thinking it might serve as a Hangar/Turret combo...

End of Cylon_Luvr's quote

Well, as I see it.

Models that have good or better textures.

Titans: Colony, Boomer

Capitals: Basestar, Worldstar, Guardian MkI, Guardian MkII

Cruisers: Heavy Basestar, Carrier

Frigates: Colony, Light, Long Range, Siege

Starbase: Warstar


Models that need work

Capitals: Resurrection Ship (Neds uv-map/textured)

Cruisers: Utility 1 (Needs new Texture)

?: Resurrection Hub (Needs uv-map/textured)
Modules: Culture Center: Communications Array No 1 (Needs uv-map/textured)
 
Models that are needed
Cruiser: Utility 0 - Not a fan of re-using the resurrection ship
Frigates: Scout - can get by with an existing model if needed. The Scarab might be cool though
Frigates: Anti Fighter - current model is ok, but untextured. I'm open to ideas

Modules:
Frigate Factory? Current looks like the Chmaeia in the Colonial Warbook
Capital Ship Factory? Not sure what to make of the current model
Combat Lab? Communications Array No 3 if can be modeled
Non-Combat Lab? Communications Array No 2 if can be modeled
Extractor? Need
Refinery? Need
Turret? 
Repair Bay?
Hangar Bay?
Superweapon?

What about the Hades II basestar? Are you going to put this in? Could it be used as another capital ship or maybe the Cruiser Utility

End of ZombiesRus5's quote

Could this be another Titan? Or how about a superweapon? (considering that in the series there was only one, and very few of these are built by players on average during a game). As a superweapon it could allow for vastly improved resurrection technology

Scarab would be awesome... Wonder it Aramil75 or Koobalt could help?

What does the current anti-fighter look like again? I can't remember!

So Koobalt's old WarStar design that you posted above could be used as both a hangar bays and turrets? Can these two functionalities be combined?

Frigate factory looks ok if it could be given the right texture. Capital ship factory is pretty crappy... really not sure what it could be though. I'm assuming that in the series, the Colony had in-built facilities to build the basestars...

Could the turret be a large, modified raider? Or maybe the below mega-pulsar cannon? (which would look like a miniature hades II basestar side-on, which can fire missles from around the sides and a more powerful, intermittent cannon from the middle)

Reply #323 from Sins Forums Top

1. The new texture for Starbase is in making process..

2. I have a terrible flu, so every thing will need more time

3. "Scarab" no idea what is that??

4. The model that you post, yes i still have it, you can do what you want with it.

5. I have cool vision of capital shipyard in my mind for cylon, once i will feel better i will give a try for it.

This scarab?

It has two setups closed (as picture) or open where those rear arms are spread out.
