What was this about a homeworld mod?
on: May 07, 2008, 11:15:46 pm
Just ordered HW 2 after hearing many, many, people say that its a great game. So, I was wondering, where was that FS2 mod for it?

Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!

Yes but my Elysium transports just stand there and don't get me resources.  So I stopped playing it...

I have a high speed version of it, and a version that I'm not allowed to share. Now if I only could find the high speed one...

You won't find it there. The maker of the mod uploaded it to filefront for download not so long ago. At worst, if anyone wants, I will have to upload it somewhere.

Ah np, I remembered he used to have the main stuff there so I figured it would be the best place.
I didn't know links were no longer listed there.

There are only 2-3 projects I follow there on occasion.

Uhmm... I'm pretty certain it was the most recent version. Inside the game it says Beta v.03 and it's about 63.2 mb

Make sure you play Homeworld 1 as well, because it's a far better game.

seems like it would make more sense to have a Zephyrus as the resource collector than an elysium.

The Zephyrus isn't HODed.

And you got the internal version, because someone posted a link to it in public. It's removed now though.

Homeworld 1 > Homeworld 2.

After finally finding it on eBay, I'm presently playing through Homeworld 1.  I've just gotten to mission 6.  It was nice of the Taiidani to give me 7 assault frigates, 3 ion frigates, 2 destroyers, and a carrier in mission 5 =)

The asteroids in mission 6 don't much like my frigates though.

Bugger, I hated that mission. I just ended up group-selecting the frigates, dancing them around the incoming asteroids with attack-while-moving commands, and hiding everything else nondockable behind the Mothership.

Mission 7 is the really ugly one.  Drone frigates and defenders around your resourcers and a capship group following the enemy mothership around blowing up pods is the only way to survive with a fleet intact (I ended up losing 2 support friagtes but nothing else).

Mission 8, which every walkthrough says is difficult, was a piece of cake.  Then again. 4 drone frigates and 3 defenders plus an additional 10 multiguns makes short work of swarmers.  And thanks for the MBFs!
