Epsilon Mod, Story and Specs

Hello,

I'm working on a mod with three others, as the title implies, it's called the epsilon mod....the name epsilon comes from our five new epsilon factions, (epsilon being the 5th greek letter) that are the biggest threats to the sirius sector, larger than the nomads...it will also consist of 5 new counter-epsilon factions, 1 from each house, and 1 from the pirate systems (hispania)...the counter-epsilon are factions like the order, who were formed to protect sirius from its new invaders...here are some specifications on the mod...keep in mind, everything in this mod is original, so you wont see any hercs or tie-fighters...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
30+ Ships are already built, we are in the process of cleaning them and making MATs

12+ Systems...2 for each house, 4 independent / pirate systems...possibly home systems for the epsilon factions

Weapons, no number yet, but they are fast...we could easily pull 100+

New sounds

Complete Infocards

Possibly new news entries...it is easy, but we dont know yet
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There is no release date for the MOD...but we are working about 16 hours a day on it...we are trying to get this thing off the ground...we have a website in progress, i will post a link when we get more pictures on it...

THE TEAM
Alex (Me) - Systems, Ship Models
Dave - Ship Models, MATs
Steph - Weapons, Sounds
Pete - Testing, Debugging, .exe compiling

Thanks for rebirthing the topic...phew...anyway, we have some cmps and mats done, not close to all of them...we are currently bringing up a website to post our pictures, the site is on the net and has some pictures, but we are adding more and cleaning it up....i'll keep you updated as we go along

Hmm... a completely original mod? Got my interest. If you need any help testing this thing give me a shot.

this may be released in chapters....instead of one large package...a few reasons

Dave is the only guy working on .MATs....so one huge package would take a long time....

People with slower connection speeds can still enjoy the mod without waiting for a 10-20-30 whatever MB download....

Keep the interest going

Debugging....new ideas....

Well, you get the idea....we are working 16 hours a day on this mod....take that greenspan!!! anyway, we may release a teaser soon....and the website will be posted in a couple days...maybe tomorrow, or later tonight :p...look at for that...i'll keep you posted

Oops, edit....we are also working on new gun models....i've got them covered...i've got some pretty nice models done imo...if i can get MY webpage up i will post them

Silly me, edit again...we are also adding new ship classes...MF's, Assault, Interceptors have been added so far

ok....more news....we are adding destructable bases, and we are working on random missions....this mod will be open sp (pending xerx's permission to use his script)....got some new models done...will put em on a site somewhere....i'll try to get them up...i've got a site on geocities....but geocities doesnt want to work on my comp....so until i can find another good free web page designer that lets you put as many pics as you want in (there can be a page size cap, i dont care) i will rely on the mod website for pics....if anyone knows a good one, if you could tip me to it, i would be much obliged....
