Hey, I've been out of the loop as to the actual game development for the future (I've had my head stuck in playing mods). I've heard of this 'Fallen Enchantress' thing and I thought originally, 'Eh, just a mod'. Except, from what I'm reading and hearing on-site, it is going to be an expansion pack. Firstly, I'd like to know, as much as can be told now anyways, what exactly is this expansion pack going to add new? Is there a

Euh, no offence but I think you're mistaken. Tried putting the mod in that very version. It minidumped. EDIT: Maybe not. This new beta minidumps on my computer all the time. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. A readme note of some sort would be nice. :-D EDIT #2: Eh-heh...kinda feel stupid. The download screen said it was for Entrenchment. I have the latest version thereof. Minidumped anyway. Any construct

Dunno why but based on what happened to them in Star Control II, I think the Taalo would have become some kind of omnicidal maniacs , given the Orz *chasing* them in *Pretty Space*. In my interpretation, given the horrific nature of what the Orz possibly are, I'd say the Taalo have been stuck in a hell-dimension like that in the movie Event Horizon - either they became evil from it, or they are jus

My computer is actually just a gamer's laptop but a standard rig for that sort of thing, not a custom job. Still plays games like Borderlands and Fallout 3, among others, very well (1920 by 1080 in the game Borderlands with the graphics at full and plays just as well as XBox 360 if not perhaps a little better, does the same in Fallout 3 except I might need to find an external fan I could put under the laptop since it overheats playing that). So I'm happy with it. &

I had been looking forward to trying your mod, DANMAN, I really did. I was a fan of the original back in 7DS 2.1. Obviously the mod does not work at all on my cutting-edge (at least in 2010, a then high-end gamer's laptop of the ASUS Republic of Gamers specialty brand, I know it has an Intel Core i7 and NVidia Geforce GTS 360M among other high-end stuff that makes it run as if it were a reasonably-priced desktop machine for such). I cannot get it to work and I lack t

Good job, can't wait for the 1.2 version! If I can suggest another race, here's one Empire race and one Kingdom race, both Doctor Who races. For the Empire, a species called the Sycorax - aliens who would fit almost like native Fallen into the Elemental Universe, so you might want to give them some high-tech but low-tech goodies, perhaps cybernetically-enhanced wargs and projectile-firing rifles. http://tardis.wikia.

I hope gunpowder does get added in even if only as a minimod. I can see good applications for it, and not just for dwarf factions or Ironeers - my sci-fi faction could do well with flintlocks, since they'd know more about gunpowder than some other faction who would be researching it, it'd be just a matter of rediscovering it. Same thing in the Warfare tree though, I'd imagine. However... [quote who="Heavenfall" reply="5" id="2854117"]The XML is no problem, however th

Hey, Basically, I wish to begin working on a custom faction. My intention is that they have some mild sci-fi elements but overall keep much of the overall Elemental gameplay. I am going to make this faction an Empire, merely because this faction is based on a species in my original (unpublished) fiction that are villains. I want to start by creating the new race based on one of the human nations tagged "Men" in the game, just a simple swapping of skin colour and hair

[quote who="Murteas" reply="3" id="2853541"]I believe that you have to change a tag in the custom faction if you are using the expanded faction mod: From Heavenfall: Most custom factions will be broken by this mod (unable to build basic buildings). To fix this, open up your documents\my games\elemental\race\ and edit the file with the name of your faction. You should change something into <RaceClassification&g

Hey, I'd like to download your mod in the Diplomacy version but Adrive is flipping me the bird by not letting me download at all . Is there somewhere else you've put the mod or am I just going to have to go without? Do I have to sign up with Adrive to download this? I'd imagine I'd have to pay Adrive a fee for their services if I did. Nothing against you, Dolynick, I'm sure it's probably out of your hands what Adrive do with the

[quote]The Time Lords would not be a good choice (and they aren't really good guys either).[/quote] True - far too powerful as a civilisation as well. But an individual Time Lord in control of their own group as a Sovereign might be a good idea. A renegade, not like the Doctor, but more like the Master or the Rani, in control of a regular civ of some kind. I'm not sure if The Master would be a fit as he got sent to the Time War, but how about, as an example, The Ra

Bug report: When I was playing the mod just now, I research the Infantry Rifle as the Cybermen, but the graphics for it is still an archery bow as per the standard Kingdom/Empire sides, and most obviously not a bow. Quite jarring, is there a way to fix that? Also, I'm wondering how does one go about making the Cyberman upgrades placed on my recruited Champions, if that can be done in the mod now. It's basically for role-playing purposes while playing the mod

This'll be interesting, great science-fantasy in regular Tolkienesque fantasy. I am downloading this post-haste. Why? I'm a big fan of Doctor Who (almost as much as Stargate SG1 and Stargate Atlantis). Need I say more? The Master would work as a Sovereign very well - if he could get himself out of the Time War again... EDIT: Downloaded the mod, played it, great mod! I like your take on the Cybermen es

Good enough for me. Maybe I'll come up with a Heavenly Forge type faction if I make a low fantasy RTS of my own someday. However even I admit I can come up with more interesting ideas than that again. I wish you the best of luck for your steampunk ideology Heavenfall; I knew the idea of the Heavenly Forge type mob wouldn't fit in other's views, and that's good enough reason for the idea to be canned for Elemental. Maybe if I make them as a faction for the free game Gle

Hey guys. I'm an enthusiastic player of Elemental, and like creating custom groups and such, but I've done some looking around in the game and existing mods and it's pretty much bogged down in a strict Tolkienesque good vs evil. That Lovecraftian-type Lizardman mod idea sounds interesting but I haven't downloaded it yet, mainly because I've been playing Sins of a Solar Empire's Maelstrom mod incessantly. A mundane tech tree needn't be boring, despite the name. Nor, a

Hi, I'm a long-time lurker but I seldom post at all, this is probably close to my first if not the first post on this forum, so, a big hello to everyone here. Hi! :D Anyway, let's get down to the message topic. Basically, I'm asking you guys what you think your favourite official canon civilisation is, and why. However, there are two things of note, which I hope I've made clear in the title and subtitle -bu
