A Babylon 5 Mod for the Final Frontier Mod

[PsiCorps]

I propose we use the Ron'Goth as a Dreadnought / Battleship. (like in the table)

OK, keeping this the same we're still left with a carrier and a destroyer that have the same names, any idea's on what we should do to resolve this?

I'll take a look into this ships

They're all from Babylon 5 Wars, and i've managed to find an awful lot more names from the same source that we can use to fill out the LoNaW fleet lists.

The new Morshin model isn't meant to replace the first one (modwise), but rather to be the second carrier class. (Being the second a clear upgrade to the first one)

I stand corrected, i'll incorprate the Morshin2 as the second carrier.

Hi again,

Just to let you know the 10th ship pack has been released.

OK, keeping this the same we're still left with a carrier and a destroyer that have the same names, any idea's on what we should do to resolve this?

I quote myself :

I think we could use some character names for the conflicting ship names, for example: Na'Fal, G'Sten,... I remember that in some episode G'Kar talks about various religious names (other than G'Quan), we could use those.

EDIT
BTW, I have started work on the Brakiri Ikorta, whe finished I'll start modelling the remaining major powers ships. (The Celerian looks like a smaller primus, and the Tralathi a bigger Sharlin)

 

[PsiCorps]

Apologies, fatigue has got me misreading things.

Some alternate carrier class vessels for the Narn are G'Kal, L'Na'Kal, T'Rann and T'Dok.

Some Destroyer names are Ka'Toc, Ro'Than and Var'Loth.

A final name to fill out the Centauri fleet list could be the Centaurum Command Ship

Again, these names come from B5 wars.

Hello everyone,

Here is another ship for the Brakiri, the Ikorta Class Assault Cruiser, this one is supposed to be the largest ship in the Galaxy capable of atmosferic operations, being actually designed to land and deploy troops.

Based on that info, and in the intel I got (from the reference images) I see that this ship - unlike other Brakiri ships - uses and ion engine rather than a gravimetric one, I believe that the Ikorta uses the ion engine for propulsion and a gravimetric one for landing operations. It should have a bonus while attacking systems.

Poly count: 724
Animation: FF Destroyer

About those ship names I like T'Rann and Ro'Than

 

[Premier Valle]

Hello all,

Continuing with the Brakiri (no ship this time), I made a little research about the ships, so I added the Brakiri to the Ship table:

Here are links for the ships in red:
Falkosi, Riva, Pikitos, Deveskar, Rakarta, Shakara, Brathon, Cidikar II, Kabrokta, Jakaroth, Brokados.

I played a little with them to make them fit the mod's ship roles. The "Cidikar II" is not the true name, but I found it named Cidikar... and we already have a Cidikar (I guess we could call them the way the Corumai is called).

What do you think?

 

[PsiCorps]

Hi Premier
I like the list, in fact, i've already added all of the units named to the roster of units for the Brakiri in game.

The merge of B5 and FF+ was going well until i tried to do something with the promotions and adding some new UnitCombatInfos. It does seem to have messed with the DLL, i want to see if it is repairable before i abandon it.

 

[keldath]

Hey guys...

so - any idea when this mod will be ready for an official release?

 

[PsiCorps]

At the moment we have no set date for an official release.

I've now successfully merged B5 with FF+ but have found there is still a lot to do.

The minor races still need their ships (Premier is working on this) and there is plenty of work to be done on the Tech Tree to ensure a good progression of buildings/units/promotions as you research things.

Keep watching this space for updates.

 

[keldath]

i see...

i keep checking here for a long time now

have all the 10 ship packs integrated to the mod yet?


perhaps there are some stuff i can help with?

 

[PsiCorps]

All 10 ship packs are incorporated into the mod, Babylon5 + V1.0(As yet this version of the mod hasn't been released as it still needs a lot done to it)

perhaps there are some stuff i can help with?

You could take a look at version 1.4 of the mod and see if you can come up with some suggestions on reorganising the tech tech tree. Which ships/buildings/promos/civics you get with each Tech. Bear in mind there are some new buildings and promos that come with FF+ so you'll need to look at that mod too.

I look forward to hearing from you.

 

[keldath]

humm,
i have looked at 1.1.4,
how about you sent me your latest version,
and ill build an organized tech tree?

my favorite thing in modding is to build the tech tree, i always start a mod from that also.

through the tree, i will be able to set the unit class in order, civics, and everything.

if you want, you can take a look at my tech tree in overlord2 to see how complex and organized i built it, also, i believe a tree should be based on unit tiers.

could this be the beginning of a wonderful friendship?

Hello All,

I have completed the Minbari Valen Class Cruiser (tho it is actually an ISA ship we took the it for the Minbari). It has 1321 polys and uses the FF Cruiser animation. This ship is meant to be in the Advanced Cruiser tier (not yet added to the ship table).

Hi Keldath
I've just sent you a PM, if you can help us out with Python, SDK and DLL stuff it would be great.
I've been considering rewatching the series again, may well do it now.

 

[keldath]

Hello everyone!,

Here is the Minbari Enfali Class Frigate (I've seen it is referenced as a cruiser, but for its size and capability I say its a Frigate ), it is meant as the earliest Minbari Destroyer. It has 694 polygons and uses the FF Cruiser animation.

This Ship is the one we can see at the beginning of the "The Legend of the Rangers" movie.

And here is the updated ship-table:
