Evoluton: A Somekind of TC for Freespace
Well ofc I'v never exactly knew the real meaning for TC. However I came up with this TC for Freespace 2 that I call Evolution (or Human Evolution). That I have currently on Moddb. I was woking on the New Era Mod but due to the public disagreement I trashed it  :mad:

Im on Vacation however in a diffrent state and will be away for awile: (Got nothing else to do so thats why this post exists). Evolution is planned to be on Homeworld 2 also. (A little offtopic here but Bloodfleet has a Released Version of Freespace Fleet Command, So you have 2 mods to follow here, Aparently Bloodfleet isnt getting the credit he deserves you hounds). The Moddb Link for my mod is here: http://www.moddb.com/mods/human-evolution-a-freespace-tc

If you wish to follow my mod, Ya! If you dont wish to. You may move away from this post. I  will post a back story too but for now, I wish to see what you guys think on my mod :)

Will this TC be more successful than your last... um... four or five TCs?

So far so good.

Let's see how it turns out. I'm tracking it.

Total conversion

Just to define things a bit further: a total conversion is when you change (nearly) everything in the game, including all the ships, weapons, and even the interface for something new. Mods using the FreeSpace Open engine that take place in an alternate fictional universe are the most stereotypical total conversions (see The Babylon Project or the Wing Commander Saga for released total conversions). It seems you're trying to create a new non-FS-related universe, using already existing canon and user-created content, which is all right, but I wouldn't call that a total conversion.

Just call your project a mod. No one can argue that this project is a mod, but it's arguable whether it can be considered a total conversion.

Well, more simply put a total conversion just uses the engine/whatever, most of the original assets are removed and replaced to make a new game.
Sig nuked! New one coming soon!

Re: Evoluton: A Somekind of TC for Freespace
um, it is a Total Convertation because it doesnt reflect with the Freespace Timeline in any way. Now I do have copywrite Issues for all the models used in the game ^^


"All the models used in the game are not created by MatththeGeek, Bloodfleet and Myself, All the Model's Owners are credted for their own work thank you Also, I know TC means Total Convertation but thanks anyways Spoon. But trust me, This Mod will stay because its actualy Creative Genus lol  :P

I am helping him for the HW2 part of this.

The people here (or at least some of them) are well aware of my Freespace for HW2 mod, btw. Matth made sure of that :P

Its just a full name I came up to prevent Confusion with the Dead Homeworld 2 Mod called Evolution on moddb :). Also I couldnt think of any other names and besides the Mod is Creative Genus not Human Evolution :P

And the SOC Destroyer, It was my faved Ship I saw on www.freespacemods.net :) and The Orion I plan to use if there ever will be a Second Evolution (Root me on and without a doubt there will be)  :yes:

Re: Evoluton: A Somekind of TC for Freespace
You do not understand.

A "Total Conversion" is effectively an entirely new game that uses nothing, not a single file, from retail FS2. What you are doing is a mod, nothing more, nothing less. A total conversion is infinitely more work than a mod.

Here's a handy rule of thumb: As long as you need FS2 installed to play whatever it is you're working on, it's NOT a total conversion. As long as you use files from retail (including the interface art or sounds), it is NOT a total conversion.

Also, you should think about reigning your "creative genius" in a bit. He's messing up your grammar and syntax.

How that translates into a good thing is something I cannot understand.

I assume that was a pun on the taxonomic rank 'genus'. "Evolution"... hehe... although that may be stretching it a bit. :/

BTA: I'm curious, is English your first language?

 
Re: Evoluton: A Somekind of TC for Freespace
Oh god, I can stand broken english, it's understandable. But for the love of god, watch what you capitalize. Only capitalize proper nouns and the first word in a sentence. If you're unsure, just don't capitalize. Please, it hurts my eyes.

Okay guys, let's stop with the complaints about BTA's English.
