  1. Same. I'm a single-player storyline guy. If it doesn't have a good single player story, it isn't worth my time. That's why I loved C&C and Red Alert... and totally loathe the unentertaining and underwelming C&C: Generals.
  2. Spent 50 hours on my first character, getting all the characters and doing all the subquests as possible. It's very detailed... and like many Bioware games, story-driven. There are choices which are neither quite good or evil, but they do affect how some characters perceive you. In fact, there are points where your components fundamentally disagree with you, they may attack you. I don't know when I'll replay it, but its certainly possible given the number of achievements. You'll need at least 6 plays to go through each character's origin story. There are some romance achievements and skill master achievements, as well as plot-point ones. All and all, very nice for an RPG
  3. Text editor ... plus other various tools http://forums.sinsofasolarempire.com/341490
  4. Not really, the AI is something that is mostly fixed - I'm sure Eville Jedi is working on it
  5. Millennium Falcon - a novel review What can I say... I've thought about it, and maybe because its so late in reading from when it was published, but I am disappointed. It has all the classics of a Star Wars adventure, travelling on the ship to discover it's past. But ultimately, I found it too predictable and lacking in anything new. I'm glad I got it on paperback, it's not worth the hardback. Likes: - all the EU references, from the Antarian Rangers to the Firrerreons to the Zann Consortium - connecting the EP3 Republic era up to the Fate of the Jedi era - all the little side stories of the Falcon - interactions of Han, Leia, Allana gang Dislikes: - Predicable; the two protagonist groups would meet up and come together at the end to defeat the hidden enemy watching them - The ending... oh man, the treasure "to restore the honor of the Republic" is a freaking metal plaque? Could it not have been something more exciting? Jedi holocrons? Tapes of Palpatine as a Sith lord.. something? - The ending 2... okay, so they just get up and leave. The only challenging bit is just getting off the planet, but that wasn't much. Seriously? The enemy just doesn't really do anything at the end - No one dies? Okay.. so the co-pilot did. But we knew the Solos would survive. But Jadak? Or even the enemy get away? - Oh the enemy has a second tracker... duh! It's almost as if Luceno couldn't find a less predictable way, the fact that he tells you this directly from the enemy POV is just insulting - All the little side stories of the Falcon are, in fact, side stories. Besides the first part, the Falcon doesn't really get a character of its own. We're told the ship is unique and quirky, but don't actually see it do much of anything. It's like being told 5 different stories about your friend's "girlfriend in Canada" but having her never talk or act, it might as well be a stuffed animal. - The whole ship-stealing, and then pretending to be the previous owner while secretly boarding the ship.... I was confused. The ship is happened to be programmed to return to its own launch place? You mean C-3PO isn't going to even point out immediately these guys were the enemy? Granted Han makes him shut up... but that was a little suspending disbelief. - Something about the Collicoids and a lawsuit and a witness...? What? Is this an episode of Law and Order? - Allana almost gets kidnapped... wait didn't we do that? Oh, it happens again in Fate of the Jedi Maybe these are nitpicks, but I actually thought I cared about the characters in Death Star novel more than these characters. I mean Allana just goes through more of the typical "my daddy's a Sith Lord and tried to take over the world"-syndrome and Solo is still the old-guy-looking-to-relive-old-adventure. Heck, I don't remember Leia doing much of anything except trying to convince Allana to call upon Jacen... wtf. Jadak I almost cared about, but he seemed the invincible super-agent anyway. All and all, very disappointing novel
  6. Help us out! Server is costing us money, we could use your help. If you like our Star Wars sites, our mods like Sins of a Galactic Empire, please support us. Send a little to our Paypal: paypal@swrebellion.com
  7. You do not need to tweak installs, just click "Enable Mod" when you want it on and "Disable Mod" to turn it off
  8. You don't want it - it's minidump-city. Seriously, a lot of work was done to make sure it was stable - this happened to focus on Entrenchment since it raises some mod limits. Double-time would be needed to ensure it works again with vanilla; not likely to happen. Entrenchment is completely worth the $10 through Impulse - it's an easy install too.
  9. to get on the Daily Show http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/tue-january-5-2010/george-lucas Go figure. Personally I feel you need to get your brain checked if your favorite is Episode I...
  10. Advanced designs will come out with the NJO era additions - New Republic and Yuuzhan Vong
  11. Research is still work-in-progress. If you had ideas or want to help, please go ahead and post
  12. You'd have to go through them one by one then, until you can determine which change is crashing your game
  13. Neat. Now plug in all the rest from the Star Wars Atlas....
  14. The latest version is always in the SVN repository. Please see instructions in the Beta Testing forum
  15. What did you modify?
  16. Neat, I look forward to it. I doubt Eville would have any issues adding planets from 7Sins (assuming proper permissions and credits are given)
  17. Added! Essentially if you have 1.0E downloaded already, you can try loading those files into the Subversion repository and then seeing if it will update. It may or may not try redownloading the whole thing
  18. Double-click and allow it to run. It should merge that way
  19. This is just gold!
  20. Uhhh Click at your own risk
  21. http://www.moddb.com/mods/sins-of-a-galactic-empire Check it out and vote!
  22. Don't think there is one for every model, but start here http://www.swrebellion.com/downloads/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=viewdownload&cid=2
  23. The md5 hash I got for this archive is da306af8d2c3b235c68ec77094e55cbb If you don't get the same hash, maybe your download is corrupted
  24. Don't know anything about this game, but looks good http://www.moddb.com/mods/star-wars-the-clones-of-war
  25. And you know who made that model? I'm sure Eville could ask for the skin, if it could be converted to Sins
