Federation and Empire

from GalCiv2 Forums

This had begun as a collection of starships based upon the Star Fleet Universe and other sources and has now evolved into the development of a full complete mod.

What you can expect to see:
9 custom major races to choose:
United Federation of Planets; Klingon Empire; Romulan Star Empire; Kzinti Hegemony; Lyran Star Empire; Hydran Kingdom; Gorn Confederation; Tholian Holdfast; and the Interstellar Concordium.

8 Custom minor races.

Custom technology trees and weapons set up for each race.
Custom player useable shipstyles for every race.

2 Custom Immense Maps: "Federation and Empire" and "The General War"

Custom Campaign: "ISC Invasion"

Starship sets are being developed now and available for use here:

http://library.galciv2.com/index.aspx?a=2985422

I gladly accept ideas for this mod and collect ships that you make to add to the ship sets. Feel free to share your ideas. I'd love to see your screenshots as well.

I know you had to stop work on the Chandley, just wanted to see if you had come up with any new ideas for it or if its totally out due to the angles on the ship?

Due to a unstable warp field that the Chandley was generating the Federation council made their offical judgement:

;P

Duh - my logo for the Tholians is different... or does that mean you prefer the initial version?

Too blurry, I have the Neo-Tholian logo which appears in the full mod and I needed them to match.

Email it, my PM box is full, I erased everything but it says it's still full.

Reply #811 from GalCiv2 Forums Top

Seth... the solution(s) for that are clearly spelled out in replies #792 & #800 right above!

Creating another new bik (which also involves a TitleWnd.dxpack file values editing) or renaming any given png to bik AND using those only from the proper location in the mod folder.

My mom won't let me download the tools that can edit those. So can someone fix the DX pack and the Terror Star animation, here is the image i'm using for the background,

Reply #813 from GalCiv2 Forums Top

Ok here is the ISC logo I forgot.  Its in the pack now awaiting approval.  But just copy this one since its exactly the same and the right size.

Hey does anyone here want to make the planetary improvements?

Reply #817 from GalCiv2 Forums Top

Anyone have an idea of what the Deian logo should be?  Its the only one I don't have.  They will be a minor race and they are not members of Federation but Associate Members.  So basically there is a treaty.  Reason I picked them is that I thought it would be cool for role-playing if you are playing the Federation.  Romulans declare war on the Deian?  Do you declare war in their defense?  Or what if the Deians declare war on you or vice versa?  Civil War?

Anyway I was thinking of some sort of banner that included a unique emblem but that also included the Federation logo.  Kinda like the British Union Jack is on the Australian flag.

Improvement editor?

I know, I was just asking if anyone one would like to make the improvements since I'm busy with the techtrees.

Are you going to use the Federation logo(s) that are offered here in the Library?  Or are you going to make your own?  There was a set that had several of the associate Member logos in it.                                                       

Were you thinking of doing what you said with this one?  I could see the star field being changed with something else for your Deians.  Or the other thing would be just to do something seperate all together.

Here is a couple of other ideas.  First is from the Battletech set of logos.

 

The second idea is called the Elf race and was created by Formis6

Reply #821 from GalCiv2 Forums Top

we could combine the two.  Add the Federation emblem at the bottom of that Battletech banner.
