Sounds like you're on Linux. There's a case sensitivity error with the background files, it seems. Will be fixed in the next patch, but till then you can fix it yourself by going into the mod folder and finding the two files SRD_Nym.jpg and SRD_Rofocale.jpg under graphics/sylphon/backgrounds/ and renaming them to SRD_nym.jpg and SRD_rofocale.jpg. That should fix the error.

edit: all wrong, Nicke fixed it

Thanks for the response.
I'm actually on Windows 8.1. Sorry to say that renaming the files didn't work, however sticking SRD_Nym.jpg into Starsector\starsector-core\graphics\backgrounds seemed to fix the issue.

Sorry for the inconvenience, the issue has now been found (seems like it only impacts newly-started campaigns). The "proper" fix will be going up sometime today or tomorrow. Replacing SylphonRnD.jar (under Sylphon/jars) with the file I've linked below should fix the issue for now (as long as you move the SRD_Nym.jpg and SRD_Rofocale.jpg files back to their original location, first).

Download .jar

And that's why you shouldn't try to do bugfixing at 5am~

Re: [0.8.1a] Sylphon RnD 0.7c

Quick hotfix patch to 0.7c

Just fixing some script errors.

Download in first post, as always

Edit: There was a typo in the nex start config that has been fixed now. If you're encountering issues with the Nex starts, just redownload the mod

Edit2: Hotfixed another bug. Download in the usual place

Edit3: and yet another hotfix. This release ended up a bit chaotic. Fixes Replekia having the wrong system.

Downloaded this on sight  ;D. Anyways, I like this mod and all, but a hand full of the ships look uncharacteristically... regular... relative to how unique this mod is.

Also, did anyone notice the gif of the Finis Astra getting photo bombed by that asteroid?

The ship designs in Sylphon fall into a total of 6 generations, representing advances in Nulltech research and fleet design over the years of the corporation's military build-up.

Here's an overview:
Spoiler
[close]


Generation 0 refers to pre-Nulltech designs.

Generation 1 are the first two ships converted to include the newly developed Nulltech. These are based on existing ship designs and modified with Nullspace Conduits.

Generation 2 is Sylphon's first foray into custom ship designs implementing Nulltech, meant to solidify the core fleet roster. The Equilibrium in particular was designed to server as the heart of the fleet.

Generation 3 is the second wave of original designs, bringing both a modern carrier and an advanced fleet support battlecruiser.

Generation 4 consists of the introduction of a full series of new heavy frontline brawlers with nanolaminate armor aswell as the continued modernisation of the Sylphon carrier roster

Generation 5 represents the current day in the SS timeline with a number of new and experimental ship designs.



Hopefully this clears up a bit why some ships look the way they do

Hello there !

I tested this yesterday and completely fell in love with it.Especially with Replekia,it feels like im flying around in kongou with those type 3 shells and such <3.

Anyway,i wanted to ask if you plan on adding many more ships,or variants of ships ?
I mean something like lets say SCY nation has,many different types of destroyers,frigates and such...

It's still being expanded upon. SCY has had plenty of time to get all those ships, though. The Outcast are only in their infancy and will grow over time. Whether it'll ever reach SCY levels, though, I can't really say at this time. Sylphon ships aren't really designed to come in different variants like SCY ships, but Outcast ships will mostly be variants of existing Sylphon ships for now, though.
