Title: Vlanetar Mod for freespace2 - ready and waiting!
Post by: erick_satire on June 29, 2002, 03:02:42 pm
The Vlanetar mod is my new mod for freespace 2.
It includes:
New textures,
modified models,
remade weapons and ship tables (new weapons and ship)
new story.
New soundtracks.
new backgrounds

Big plasma globes that melt ships like potatoes in an inferno.

and of course a nice demo campaign of 6 missions

Check it out, you won't regret it!

It looks good, but the one thing putting me off downloading it is the fact that there seem to be about 12 different sections I need to download. Put them all together in a vp, or at least a single zip file and make it a bit more convenient.

There're some on the website. The potatoe melting plasma things look particularly interesting (specifically designed to take down Ares, methinks)

:wtf: I'm assuming ther's a point to this - I don't actually have any proof of that, but as I said, it's just an assumption.

Look at your spelling of potato. What was Dan Quayle famous for spelling incorrectly? :D

I've got no idea, actually, but I'm not American :D.

I do know I'll watch my spelling from now on though :nervous:

I`m not american either but Dan Quayle was famous for correcting a school kid's spelling of potato by adding an e to the end.

Silly president. :D

Anyways, erik, it's ok. But I still don't like the Star Wars music. Also, needs to be a little bit more serious (at least, I get that it's trying to be;)) Also, try to add more info in, like during teh campaign briefings.

First of all people, about the files.
I am quite sorry that it has to be like that. I know it's a pain and I don't like it either, but that's the only way I could've put them there with this server.
I would much rather give u one single, small download, but unfortunately freespace doesn't support mp3 or MIDI. If someone would be able to add that to the code I'll be a  happy man.

After you download all the messy files for the first time you're done though. All updates will be small and one file I believe. I'm gonna add some more planet pictures, maybe stats for more ships (like the installation and freighters), nothing big coming for now.

I really want comments about how the new stats for weapons work for you. What you think should be changed (missiles/ lasers i dunno , stuff like that).

The plasmas (the big ones) are anti-capships.
The small ones (the aragorns) are for any fighter, not just the heavier ones (ares). They also cause considerable damage to cruisers and capship subsystems.

And I guess a potato can melt just like any other substance :)
In the right temperatures, yes :)

Enjoy the mod, and whatever you people do. Remember, that after all, this is all been done for you.
