Im in the process of creating an Ancients Datafiles mod, which will be based on the Shivan Datafiles pack, except for Ancients.

Im extracting all of the Ancient ships from where I can find them... and adding other little bits here and there. Anyone willing to help with it or offer comments please do! All help will be appreciated.

Thanks... will have more updates soon to come.

Some time ago I made semi-complete ancient mod.
I will soon check out what I included into it and tell you.
Mod itself is unreleased ,but everything in it can be found somewhere.

[maelstrom0511]

awesome... that would be great. I'm editing the AF Kato right now... along with the Ancient Debris. (Im starting with some easier stuff, then moving up...)

What about the Ancient-Shivan War project?

[captain-custard]

this is a data base not a mod as such

[Mobius]

It might be used in ASW, I hope...

[maelstrom0511]

Well, who knows? idk... Im just using all of the previous mods that have to do with the Ancients, along with some additional tech room info and maybe a homemade Ancientified warp. chances of that are slim.

(my idea behind that is... surely subspace had a different color back in those days? I mean it was a long time ago...)

[ShadowGorrath]

Or you could wait till the first ASW release for more Ancient ships, mods and etc. Like the HTL Kato, some of the INF Ancient ships, etc.

Or better yet, join ASW

[maelstrom0511]

hm there's an idea... but im already getting the ancient ships from Inferno releases... so yeah

edit: Oh wait... you're the main guy for the Ancient Shivan War project...  sorry. Sure, I'll join... what can I do? I dont do modeling or music... i might do fredding though if given assets to work with.

By INF Ancient ships, he means the newer, non-INFR1 ones.
Come on, join us. It'll be fun.

Or if you want to continue this by yourself, the only Ancients craft I know of are from INFR1, and if I recall correctly there was a fighter or two in Nukemod. That's about it.

[ShadowGorrath]

Joining the team means getting access to the assets Just apply on our forum on sectorgame.

Click the link in my sig if you are lost

[maelstrom0511]

  ok thanks all! will be there shortly...

I have not that much of Ancient stuff as I though.
Inf R1 ships and weapons ,old Ancient weapons pack ,Nukemod ship and weapons and one ancient cannon from I think GTGS Enforcer (available here: http://www.freespacemods.net/download.php?view.383).
I used a BP table for Vishnan heavy fighter and made AF Siren (untabled in INF R1).
And I have INF R1 path ,it upgrades some ancient weapons.
You propably have all of it ,maybe except the enforcer.
You will most likely have better name for Siren.

[maelstrom0511]

yeah, I already had the Enforcer... i think i have everything on that list. I'm just gonna have to extract and compile some, you know?

[Mobius]

To clarify, me and Woomeister agreed on giving the exclusive INF Ancient ships (most of which weren't featured in INFR1) to the ASW team.

[captain-custard]

does that mean that no one else can use them?

[FreeSpaceFreak]

It means you'll have to wait till they're released, or else be veeery nice to the INF team.

[captain-custard]

ok,  thats cool just it would be really nice to have a ancients database up and running ......

so that ppl wishing to create something within this period of the fs universe have a full pallete as such to work with ....

[maelstrom0511]

well apparently there's a bunch of people up here working on mods and campaigns set during the Ancients time or that have something to do with the Ancients... so I'm just doing a basic compilation, you could say.
