[MOD] Distant Stars 1.0 - [22/06/08] UPDATED - Public beta 1.05 Compatible

Improving the original game engine

from Sins Forums



Public Beta available.
1.05 compatible

Introduction
Distant Stars is a collection of changes that i made to the game to become more enjoyable even on huge maps. I found the research tree to short for a 4x game. So the first thing i done is too greatly increase the levels for upgrade. Now most of the weapons, shield, armor, HP researches got 6-10 levels for each tech. Now, technology advantage is become a major factor in the game. Also tried to increase the differences between the race by research.
This actaully means, the Trader Emergency Coalition got more levels for treade and for defense, Advent have more in beam weapon tehcnology and fighters, Vasaris now can make their phase missiles to really past through shields and more weapon research.
When the research tree was finished, i tried to do some tweakings with the units. Most of this changes are posted in this thread in the last one week, but not all of them. The total list is come with the mod.

Inbuilt Mini-Mods
Sound Effect Replacement MOD
Enchanced and/or replaced sound effects and replaced Battle musics from my own collection, now mostly consists the remastered versions of the Haegemonia: The Solon Heritage OST, Band Of Brothers OST and the menu music is from E.S. Posthomus.

SINS PLUS by UZI

Got another problem while playing the Vasari. I know some other guys were talking about it earlier, but when I went to click the Sqaudron Management button for one of my fleets, the game froze and it came up with that 'Saved MiniDump' screen before exiting.

Andy - That's quite nice. I think this will be the default installer in every mod in the future. Thanks for you work, i much appriciate

Tolzak - Yes, others had posted that problem before. Think i know what caused this, adn currently i'm working that. Uploading the next fix when i finished the testing. Not always cames up that error, so i need to run several testes...

Hey Skyline, I just want to compliment you on the music, its really good. But is there any way to add more music to it, so that it doesn't have to repeat the same things over and over again?
Reply #131 from Sins Forums Top
I have had some sound popping issues with your mod that are not present in the normal game (I tested a situation with your mod and then without it). The popping comes during combat, I imagine from the sounds of the ships firing, since it only happened during combat.

I run an integrated sound card by the way.
Reply #132 from Sins Forums Top
Really enjoying this mod so far..agree that fighters/bombers should be toned down a bit tho..not sure how much AI is dev issue or mod issue, but would be nice to see more aggressive AI (probably more a game issue unfortunatly).

Crashes.. I'm currently playing a rather large map (230 planets and 25 odd stars, the 2nd map that Fandango has out). I'm about 18 hours total time into the game, I havn't really had any issues until now (except the known one with fleet button.. only had it crash once, avoiding it till fix). Now, right before "raiders have launched" plays (advent race), I get a minidump (crash). I've saved game right up until crash and had it repeat this at same time every time..and right after the dump when I alt/tab out to the minidump window it then plays that sound, "raiders have launched"..so I'm not sure exactly what it is, but think thats it. Hope its not something to do with the game size as I like the long/large game plays :)

Keep up the awesome work!!!

edit: ya, def w/ the sound.. when a lot of them are playing at once maybe? crashed right when fleet was starting to jump, and one of my support ships started repairing hull on another..seemed to crash as the sound for that was starting to play..I know your reformating the sound files with the program the devs used..maybe that will solve all of this :)
Reply #133 from Sins Forums Top
The game sound engine is limited to play one sound, 5 times simultaniusly. I'll going to reduce that maybe to 3, this will help the sound popping issue, also incease a little the game performance when you use integrated audio, just like me.
Those popping sounds are mostly caused by the enhanced boost and harmonization effects. If there's someone, who got a good sound card, not an integrated, and tryied the mod, please gimme some feedback about the sound.

Thanks Rotorfib for the feedback. Please look in the log folder, if the game didn't generated a log file, just send me that, so i can figure out what exactly casued the problems.
Reply #134 from Sins Forums Top
I'm using a Phase26 Terratec Producer Sound Interface. Not exactly what you should use for gaming but I'm having the same issues with it. I believe that the fact that the engine can't handle stereo samples causes crazily increased volumes (left channel + right channel = twice the amplitude) what causes clipping (/popping) effects if it goes beyond the max level.
Reply #135 from Sins Forums Top
I realized that. The main problem is not to handle stereo samples, just to handle lots of them simultaniously. The funny thing is, the game plays stereo in mono and mono in stereo.
The musics also converted in stereo, with 160 avg bitrate in 48 Khz.
Today i'll finish reconvert the sound, then upload.
Reply #136 from Sins Forums Top
The funny thing is, the game plays stereo in mono

I guess that's because it's easier to write algorithms that are able to pan 1-channel-signals (mono) about in the surround field than stereo signals. The latter would require more complicated stereo width adjustments which aren't provided by the Sins-engine.
Apart from that it's more realistic if an explosion appears to be coming from a specific spot on the battlefield instead of sounding ultra-wide and its location being indeterminate.

Well let's just leave it at that until we'll see what happens after the reconversion ;)

Hmmm... i am selecting the ship of the fleet one by one for create the fighter/bomber... and no more problems after...

Have around 30 hours with these mod on a huge ramdom map...

In my case, only one bug who repeat always... once i wish to quit the game, when i am in the "statistics" menu and i click "main menu"... the program frooze the computer... a ctrl-alt-del don't help... only method is a hard reset of the computer ! This have never happen before using these mod !

GREAT WORK...

Ok I've added some code behind the installer. You create (i'm making it for you SkyLine) a small XML file with the details needed to install the mod and it will do it. It will also detect if the mod is already installed. The tool will allow you to execute files as part of the install and will provide some simple XML tag definitions to do simple things like copy a folder. Here is the latest screenshot. All the details are loaded from the XML file

I tried to post the XML file in here, but it doesn't render correctly using the code=xml tags...

All I have left is to add the simple XML tags that let you do things like copy files, folders. Oh and all the graphics are editable, so you just need to replace my PNG files with your own to have your own logo and background rendered.

I dont think this is to do with the mod mate, personally I've always had this "delay" between clicking the "Main Menu" Button and actually having the main menu appear, this only happens in the larger games.
Try waiting slightly longer (say 5-10minutes) before rebooting your computer, also check to see if you can still move your mouse around, if you can then your pc hasnt crashed.

Looking great Thraka, seriously great looking installer cant wait to give it a try! Can it update mods too? From say v1.0 to v1.1?

I was reconverted the sound effects and also edited some of them, too. i don't hearing any popping. The effects download link is in the download section of the thread.

Indirectly... yes...

Simply because with the mod, a similar huge map use more memory... working with Linux and a VM machine with WinXP, not enough RAM was allocated for the VM ... and WinXP unmount my raid system when it try to use a swap drive on a EXT3 partition... with a full 4GB ram allocated to VM, it is like before... a "delay" from only 1-2 second...

Hope that one day "Sins of a Solar Empire" will be supported by Cedega... It will resolve a lot of problem and use the full power of my computer...

In any case, thank to Uzii and skyline for these great mod...

Fighter Management CTD is fixed... Sadly, the problem caused by the removed bombers from non CV/BB classes. So... the other caps can build bombers, like in vanilla sins.
I'll upload the 2nd fix tomororow.
If someone had a crash when a pirate raid started, please tell me.

I'm almost done with the first release and MOD authors will be able to use it. It still needs touching up on the user experience (what the end user see's during the install and how errors are reported to them) I just put in the most simplest way. So really my TODO list is:

1) Custom error dialog
2) Logging so you know what is going on
3) Multithreaded UI - UI will update while operations are being completed
4) Detect which versions of a mod are installed
5) Determine actions to take when upgrading from version X to version Y
6) Evolve into a MOD MANAGER

I'll be releasing v1 later tonight, I'll start my own thread and it will be hosted in my own site. It will come with all source code. I was in a new job orientation today which was a lot of fluff that I already know so I got like 97% of the tool v1 done.

Ok, I just completed my first full game and I'll give you as specific feedback as is possible from the top of my head. Keep in mind, I'm not criticizing your mod, I think it's great and it hits the nail right on the head, and comes closer to the mark of what this game should be than the original version of the game.

Bugs:
- After installing the new sound files, the sound popping issue was eliminated from combat. However, I noticed the sound pops at different times now. Specifically, I noticed it when the "Raze planet" ability was used by the Marza, and when standard capitols were using their planet bombardment missiles. It was only slight, but it was there. The only other popping I heard was during the explosion sound from the Advent carrier. All other ship destruction sounds did not yield any sound popping.

- After the quick fix the game is still crashing occasionally when you press the fighter squadron selection button. It happened mostly when I hit the button in a large fleet that had 40+ squads of fighters. It never happened with planetary fighter selection, only fleet fighter selection.

-The Tachyon Generator in the research tree has "string not found" written in its description.


Positive Observations:
- In my opinion, the increased fighter capacity is a great idea. Sova Carriers are finally worth having a couple of, and it looks better when you have 5 or six squadrons of fighters following it instead of 2. The fact that the original game allows carriers to have so few fighters is just plain stupid. Not allowing the other ships to carry fighters was also a good idea, it's unfortunate it had to be scrapped because of the crashes. I like the increased capacity of the hangers as well. All these fighters force both you and your enemy to build anti-fighter ships, something that wasn't really necessary in the original game.

- The research system is much better with this mod, my only complaint being that it costs so much crystal. However, the economy bonuses make up for it, allowing you to make the money to purchase more crystal. This research system really forces you to focus only on certain aspects, and makes some research (such as the resource bonuses) much more worthwhile, and sometimes necessary. Making research stations more expensive was also a good idea.

- Adding more logistics slots to some planets turned out to be a good idea. Now the computer will actually build some formidable planet defenses, which they almost never did before. They still kind of build them in a weird fashion, bunching structures in seemingly random places, but that's just because of the terrible AI that Stardock included with this game.

- The increased amount of capitol ships finally allowed me to distribute my fleets better. Just those couple extra makes all the difference, and their increased strength allows me to keep them in smaller groups. It is much easier to keep key planets safely garrisoned with fleets in this way. This is a good change, since instead of having a larger fleet that I have to play hopscotch between planets to keep them defended, I can have smaller fleets that stay in one place and don't force me to move them around constantly (and this is good, since you made capitols a lot slower).

- Giving home planets more resource asteroids is good, it makes your HP more valuable so there is more incentive to keep it safe. I actually had the AI engage me as I was bombarding his home planet, even though he was clearly overmatched. That never happens, so this is a good thing.


Negative Observations:
- The defenses are a little overpowered. Making the defenses stronger was a must, but I think you made them a little too strong. Before, 6 turrets couldn't even take down a group of frigates. Now, 3 turrets (upgraded) can take down a capitol ship. I would say you should make the turrets count as 1 slot again since the increased capacity of hangars and the damage/rate of fire increase more than makes up for it.

-I noticed with the modification to the fleet supply, the AI seems to make A LOT of frigates. By a lot I mean 1:45 into the game my ally had one particular fleet with 130 Cobalts. I never recall the AI building this many frigates before, and it could lead to some frame rate issues with so many ships on the screen. I didn't really have any problems, but I imagine if the game went differently and I ended up fighting an AI with that many frigates it might be.

Those are my insights after a 7 hour game. Overall, good mod so far. Good luck, I hope to see more additions in the future.

Bonerfest:
First... Thanks for that very detailed feeedback. i hope you enjoyed that match.
Bugs:
- The sound popping is maybe caused by the increased bass and harmonizations also the added Hi-Fi chorus. As i remember i don't changed the missile sounds for bombarding, and the capitals using the same dying sounds. I have popping sounds sometimes, mostly when the CPU is running at 100%, that caused by my integrated soundcard. A friend of mine tested the sounds on a Creative X-Fi Fatality Edition soundcard, and didn't noticed any trouble.
- The fighter menegment problem is fixed, but the patch isn't uploaded yet. That's because the patch contains other changes, mostly for optimizing the performance. The detailed list of changes will be available when the Patch uploaded. Currently the Patch is in the testing phase. The first fix is only to remove a bug from the Vasari research tree.
The patch will be released today, i hope.

- I know about the missing string problem, and that caused by the duplicated files i used. I'll try to insert that fix in to the patch, too.

Positive Observations:
- The increased squadron numbers are causing lots of lag, mostly on larger maps. The patch optimization is mostly aim the fighters. I'll list the changes later.
- The crystal need for researches isn't really balanced now, that's why released a public beta before the final. i'll reduce the cost a little, but researches are tha main crystal consumptions in the mod, so you need a lots of them, to perform researches.
- The AI is writed by the programmers from Ironclad games. Stardock is only a publisher, not software developer.
- in vanilla sins, the ships got nearly the exact maximum STL speed. Now the Vasari ships a little fasters and the Tec vessels are a little slowers.
- With the increased resources for the homeplanet is maded for quicker games, and also needed for increase because the structures/ships/techs are more expensive.

Negative Observations:
- I incresed the price of the defensive platforms, also slightly reduced the damage
(about 10%-15%). Hangar Defenses also more expensives and cost 5 Tactical Slots for every races (with the patch). Try to using another siege strategy, like bombers to take out the defenses. Those Platforms mainly builted to destroy enemy ships and i think there now capable to make this.
- The incresed ship building priority is camed with the mod, because i found the AI to weak. Mostly incresed the priority for AGGRESIVE AI, and to the FORTIFIER. Also they now building more defenses.
