Yes, they did integrate technology into themselves. There are non-cannon shivans and cannoned shivans. One example of a disarmed or unarmed shivan was when they were being tested on. An armed shivan can be seen when the GTI (i think) boarded a Shivan freighter and it pulvarized them. XD

This is hilarious. I couldn't figure out whether or not you were trying to say 'non-canon and canon' for a while.

Re: RELEASE - Shivans! v0.2
Now I see it. Yes, I know that model.

Too bad it's info is classified for us mortals.

You mortals can figure out what model it is, sooner or later, depending on your intelect.

 
Re: RELEASE - Shivans! v0.2
That's mostly because I already told you what it was. :P

I'll probably make a video of it once I'm done with it, since the textures are animated.

I can see it. A new Shivan corvette? It's a nice reskin. :) But I don't think the model looks very Shivan.

I haven't looked, but it's not the Shivan Iceni, is it?

It's a reskinned Malia corvette. The spiky behind is the upper left corner.

Re: RELEASE - Shivans! v0.2
Regarding the mini-campaign: Pretty much ShadowGorrath's work, though I did nerf the enemy Hunters in mission 2 by changing the default weapons. That's right, you heard me. They're already nerfed. I suggest you use the cruiser as cover for mission 3. Consider them non-canon and more of a user submission thrown in for some variety.

The 3 demo missions are my work, so you can ***** at me all you want about them. :P

Tactical and Meson bombs, as well as the Mass Driver (and the Infiltrator and Experimental Light Fighters), are considered special issue and will be rarely available/used in a campaign (in line with their uber-ness).

I can't get the missions to load, with various 3.6.10 builds or 3.6.9.
Can you be more specific? How is it failing?
It loads about halfway, and I get an error report and CTD.

What's in the error report?

Dunno, it wouldn't have anything to do with FSO. I'll run a debug build.

Re: RELEASE - Shivans! v0.2
Is anyone having issues with lag? When I start the first mission, it takes a while to start up, then it lags very badly. So badly in fact, I can't play.
Imagine awakening, and hearing the heartbeat of the galaxy for the first time.
It is like a cloud, a mist that drifts from living creature to creature, set in motion by currents and eddies.
It is the eye of the storm, the passions of all living things turned into energy, into a chorus.
It is the rising swell at the end of life, the promise of new territories and new blood, the call of new mysteries in the dark.

Re: RELEASE - Shivans! v0.2
Can it be mallocs? As the recoloured advanced mediavp shockwaves in the advanced addon pack for this mod are TGA, and I think uncompressed. Plus the beam cannons are the high detailed animated versions.

So if you load the BoE mission, for example, with the advanced pack, I can guess that even modern PCs can choke.

 
Re: RELEASE - Shivans! v0.2
or it could be your computer. My computer will load everything and not lag. My other computer... amazingly still operates well and it's memeroy is over 99% full! XD (First time it's happened) But honestly, it could be something in your computer.

Re: RELEASE - Shivans! v0.2
The advanced recoloured shockwaves are in TGA and probably uncompressed too. To view one you need quite a bit of RAM, and that's just for the shockwave. Well, I don't know if it can really lag on modern PCs. Tell me how much RAM you have?
