Thu, 08 May 2008 13:03:38 GMT http://home.spaceempires.net/article353.html http://home.spaceempires.net/article353.html You can download it here Beta 0.6 marks a large step for the mod with the addition of complete working AI for normal and monster races. It also does a fair amount of monster balancing to address issues that had shown up in the now defunct pbw games I was running. Multiplex tracking has been changed a bit, all hulls have a base tracking amount this amount can only be increased by turning over control of the ship to a Master Computer. Also I have tried to push each hull size closer to having a more specific role. As usual the mods needs Image Mod and Sound Mod to work properly Tue, 22 Apr 2008 06:37:50 GMT http://home.spaceempires.net/article352.html http://home.spaceempires.net/article352.html Dark Nova 5.04 has been released!

With the condensed Technology Tree I felt like we needed a few unique items for researching higher levels. To remedy this I added rewards for reaching higher levels in certain techs (Vehicle Systems, Engines, Hulls, Space Ports, Anti Proton Beams, Meson Cannons). Also, since I pulled the special racial techs I decided to add them in as rewards for finding ancient ruins on planets. Colonizing a world with a Ruin is still random, so you will get an existing tech advanced or access to a new type of technology.

See below for details ** Many new players expressed concerns over the complexity of SEV and this made it somewhat unaccessible for new players. This Mod is a stripped down version with a more streamlined ''Technology Tree'' while still maintaining the Galactic 4X feel. This mod builds off the Balance Mod which has strong roots to the stock game. If you are new to the game or the genre this will help you get the basics without overwhelming you. Play this version until you feel comfortable with the game, then move on to the more complicated mods. Also, this is a great mod for casual quick play! There is a working AI, so this is good for single player action.
