how did you manage to get the Eclipse?

I unpacked the fixes.big file, went into the 'building and research' folder, opened the Vaygr folder (that's the empire) and then opened the build.lua file.

In there, I copied the code for the Executor and then pasted below it. I then changed the 'thing to build' to the eclipse (grab the name from it's folder in the 'ship' directory) and then changed the build priority number so that it was higher that the Executor (so that it appears below it in the build menu in the game). I saved it, and then repacked the fixes.big.

This really put my skills to the limit (read 'i know nothing about coding') and took about an hour before I figured out which file i needed to change.

It's funny - I manage to get the damn thing in there, but I can't figure out how to post an image of the battle. Below is what I had. Can someone point out where I messed up? (I've removed the end brackets from 'img' and '/img' so you can read it)

dojoyoda you'll need to upload the image to a site like imageshack or the like, you can't link directly to your hardrive

wow dojo, that's pretty cool...what did you use to unpack the fixes.big file?

Christ - I used Unf Big .BIG-file packer. I downloaded it off the net ages ago.

Behemoth - I'm uploading the .big file to.......mega upload. I added the description 'Homeworld 2 Warlords - fixes.big with eclipse.'

I have no idea if that helps. I just pressed a couple of buttons and it started uploading.

Eville - cheers. "We will make you our new god!"

Behemoth - here's the link for the fixes.big http://www.megaupload.com/?d=F6YEH11L

If you post me a hockey bag full of cash, we'll call it even

oh sweeeeeeeet man thx soooo friggin much

I read the thread about the new AI that is under development and I wondered whether it will be included into the next release? Also, is the main purpose for creating a new AI to fix the problems with the computer building ships at the facilities and to give the player a bit more challenge when going up against a CPU opponent?

Are there any plans to re-include the Star Wars time periods (ANH, ESB, ROTJ, Dark Empire and so on) with certain restrictions on shipbuilding? (for example, the player can't build the Alliegance-class Star Destroyer in the ANH time period, but can build it in Dark Empire)

Did anyone else like the time periods in version .45?

time periods will be back eventually

cool

While playing some Scenarios, I noticed one was off: XW/YW vs. I-VD (I'm assuming this mean X-Wing and Y-Wing versus Imperial Victory-class Star Destroyer). Well I played it, and it's actually an Assault Frigate, Bulk Cruiser, 2 squadrons of B-Wings and 6 squadrons of Y-Wings versus an Imperial Imperator I-class Star Destroyer and 4 squadrons of TIE fighters. Not complaining, but just pointing it out.

EJ, will you be releasing more maps for the mod, or are you pretty much done with that?
