also i got a mate who i could team up with who can make fairly good sprites which i could attach the data etc to( if i learned it tutoring is appreciated). Not certain yet in the how and who, but most likely and midline faction filling in the neutral role in the system, perhaps just called independents with mining teams and convoys etc, or a neutral corporation.

Care to chip in?

Names or sprites?  :D

I would love to help out - I don't think I can help for a while though, but given the scale of this project hopefully it will still be going (and I'll still be welcome) in an indeterminate period of time (month or two?) and you won't mind a slow but steady contribution?

We can take what we can get at this stage, and decide from then maybe? It's up to our good o'l team leader :P

@mendoca

Care to perhaps chip in to the independent faction i'll probably (not set in stone yet) make with a friend? Y uou can just work at your own pace while we make some additional sprites and ships, and you could mentor us a bit cause we are kind of new.

Faction names then people?
My ideas so far:
(The) Proteans, Energy based weapons, mainly bright colours, probably purples and such
(The) Caranians, Universal weapons, Devastating ranged weapons but weak overall as a fleet, Darkish colour scheme(perhaps reds?)
More soon!

So, I am thinking of making a mod that will include:
  • at least 300 ships, completely original

Good luck.

Off topic first: my amazing headphones of amazingness (Sony MDR CD1700s) have returned from the grave after being sternly spoken to (drivers are hugely bass monstrosity like again) They also seemingly have developed 3D sounds.

Yay!

On topic: According to Vandala's topic, 600 ships have been modded, which means you'd be adding a third. All original.

How the hell will you do that?

Will there be aliens or not? I think this should be mainly about humans.

Anyway, another minor pirate faction, hostile to The Corporation, could be an ragtag bunch of traders, mercenaries and other assorted freelancers based around a small moon orbiting the gas giant. These pirates would be hostile to all the factions in the system, so they'd pretty much be the basic Pirates, with low tech ships, small few ship fleets, raiding trading routes and all that cute stuff.
