Ok, so I made a couple "upgrades" to some INFR1 Shivan ships, got an idea for a ship, and decided to make some sort of mini-mod. This is the result of daydraming at school, and some free time with FS.
It needs 3.6.10 beta mediavps due to a remap of one ship using 3.6.10 grade maps. So I packed in the needed maps, and now I guess it should work with 3.6.8 Zetas aswell.
Contents listed in the ReadMe. But not all, so download the mod to find out.

===== 'Dantallion' mini-mod =====
-----Contents:
After the Great War, one ship survived, though seperated from the rest. This was going to be the story of that ship. The SD Dantallion.

You - for bothering to download this
----------NOTES. READ THEM!
Possibly needs 3.6.10 mediavps
Try the cutscene mission. But you will need a new build for it ( SCP build fs2_open_C09062008.exe ). If the mission isn't played, then a 3.6.9 build will be sufficient.
Made by Žygimantas ( a.k.a. ShadowGorrath ). Remap and tables for the SSD Anger are by ShadowGorrath, aswell as the map upgrades of the Kahlan, Hydra and Durja. Everything else is listed in the credits, with who made the stuff.
If anyone wants to take up this mini-mod and make a campaign for it, feel free to do it, as long as you credit me and the makers of the content, and notify me.

Should be in the campaigns section. I'll give it a look later :nod:
-
Does the SSD Anger appear in some other mods table or why is there a +nocreate in it's table entry what prevents that my fs finds this ships table entry...:wtf:
-
Looks cool. Might make a BoE with it if I'm bothered.
-
You used my nebula eh?
You should have asked first, but w/e.
-
Sorry for using it without asking, but I would have had to wait till you reply to a PM before I could release.
And it seems I forgot to remove the +no create entry when I deleted the duplicate TBM x_x
Well, it was more of an excuse to release the slightly updated maps anyway. . . I made everything into this in an hour or so.
-
so are you tracking the dantallion and the anger down? or are you playing with the shivan's perspective?
-
The story is that the SSD Anger was originally the SD Dantallion that fought in the Great War, and the only survivor of that force that fought in the Great War. Well, it escaped the GTA and PVN, but couldn't return to the Shivan homesystems. During those 11 years, the SD Dantallion became the SSD Anger, with the Shivans heavily upgrading the warship and it's fighter/bomber complement. Some of the new tech are the interstellar subspace drives, that don't need a node to travel through, heavily improved shields, self-regenerating armour and beams based on the Lucifer ( LRed's and other beams though ). These Shivans are different, independent from the rest. So they voyage the stars alone, looking for something, but not for a way back anymore.
But what happens when they actually find their original home, and the other Shivans?
And yes, this is supposed to be played from these Shivans perspective ( not the original ones that you encounter in FS2 ).
P.S. IF ANYONE WANTS TO PLAY THIS BUGLESS, THEN OPEN UP THE SHIP'S TBM FILE, AND REMOVE THE '+no create' FLAG FROM THE SSD ANGER ENTRY!
