WLd Mod

First mod; be kind :P

This is a maligned graphic mod I've been working on over the past year or so. I've rebuilt it quite a few times and am doing so again for the Entrenchment Expansion. I hope to actually finish it this time around.

 

I'm currently working on the TEC effects. Unfortunately this modding thing is still new to me, so its taking me a little while to turn out new particle effects. :annoyed:

 

 

Thanks to Annatar for answering my mod questions.

Feedback is appreciated.

Hey guys, I saw a demo of Solar-flare on Youtube, but never actually found it on this site, has it been realeased?

Search for it on ModDB. It's interesting, but I'm looking forward to WLd's next release more. Solar Flair's phase jump graphics are a bit odd.

Can't wait to check this mod out when its done! I'd try it now, but my favorite race is the
advent, seeing as your still working on this mod *waits* :LOL:

*downloads anyways*

Oh no, another mod with un-editable files >_<. Curse my tendacy to tweak things >_<. I'll
wait until this gets on 7DS. Or until I discover a way to convert these files back into
editable forms.

Yeah, found that earlier today, looked at the install instructions and went  :NOTSURE:

I didn't really like Solar Flair too much... It makes everything look like a fireworks show. Confetti explosions and multicolored phase wave cannons just seem.... odd... But the plasma effects were great!

There isnt much to say, most of us thought this mod would be out a month ago  :p 

We're just waiting quietly is all.

Anyone know where Lost lives so we can get a lynch mob over there to "ensure" this mod gets done?

I think he needs just a tad bit of motivation.

I'm still modding. I had a few slight computer problems about two weeks ago which resulted in the loss of most of my mod(thanks Windows!). I've been reconstructing it since. I was also away from home since Tuesday, leaving me unable to check in here.

Because I had to start over on my mod, I've decided I'm going to be severing bailknight's mod from mine. I don't mean this as a slight to him. His mod rules :)

As bailknight said though, we do have different styles and I would like to show mine.

I've also decided I'm going to release the mod in chunks instead of all at once so I can get feedback while I'm working on it. :)

So bottom line, I'm still here. :d

Oh wow, that sucks man. Would you say you've caught up to where you were before the files were lost, or not? Good luck.

I'm getting there. I'll try to have the TEC beta out before the end of the month. :)

I don't know if it will have new explosion effects though. I'm kinda newb at those right now. :P Also, the 1.1 beta will allow us modders to make race specific explosion effects. :D

Glad to see you are back. I plan on using the race specific thing too. For example, I would love to use your mod, plus bailknight, plus the solar flair, at the same time, but for different races. It just requires having all three mods, and renaming all the files and editing all the races and ships. Lots of work, but big payoff considering having 3 different artistical effects. I am sorry to hear of the loss of all your files. The modding community has just taken a huge blow to the head...
Hopefully you can get back on your feet quickly, as I am eagerly awaiting your new work.

If you like, I could tag all of my files so you won't have to rename them. It wouldn't be too much work for me to do atm.

THAT would be great! If you just put WLD in from of all the names, that would be perfect. Then I can use your specific effects where I want them in the mod.
Thank you for taking the time to do this.

Has anyone tried wld1.2 with the 1.09 beta? I'm curious if it works or not.

Still here. I'm just waiting on the 1.1 mod tools is all. :/

It probably won't due to the changed explosion file and whatnots.

It does not work, as no mods work with 1.09 BETA yet. We still need the tools to update, which Ironclad is currently working on for us.

Good to see you are still around Wld. Is there any way I can get those TEC graphics from you sooner rather than later? They would make a great addition to the new TCA faction of 7DS. Can't wait to see your effects in action. Hopefully you didn't lose everything, I really loved the Revelation's Siege attack...

I just have some tweaking to do for the TEC graphics and those will be ready to go. A few of the texture changes adversely affected a few graphics.

I also still have to tag the files.
Reply #272 Top
Lost, as soon as you finish the TEC up, you can e-mail me the files and I can tag them for DANMAN. Both of you have more important things to do, like DANMAN finishing up 7DS, and you making the next version of your mod. My e-mail will be in a PM. Don't want spam.

Do I understand this correctly that this mod is essentially Bailknights mod with many graphical additions from WLD?

Does it use Bailknights 1.3 mod? And is it compatible with SoaSE 1.05?

Anyways.  Lost, you still alive and kicking?  We could all use some real nice graphical effects.

I really enjoy this mod.  In fact it's my favorite one to play with and I think it adds just the right amount of effects without going over the top.  I really hope that you update it to work with 1.1 whenever it goes live as I've really gotten use to the visual cues and the styles you use in this mod.  I'm running with the contents of the **WLd+BKGM1.2 folder and i really hope that either you or someone can convert them for use in the future when 1.1 is on our doorstep.  I can't give you enough praise on this one.  I think the mod in it's current state is gold.
