I hope it is not dead. It is a really nice wiki full of info, would be shame to loose it.

You need to move "_templates" (NexusSkirmisher/) from modification package into your installed NexusSkirmisher/_templates then you should see WarBeginsSkirmisher mission type.

Well, you can find most of game effects at universe/engine/efx.ini (or mod_efx.ini which adds new effects but permits original effects to be used). Third number in Start/Travel/End line at tacticstypes is the number of exact effect at efx.ini file. So, you need to take desired effect from efx.ini and then add its number to your weapon.

I'm afraid that there are no plans at all. I might be doing some videos for SG and W40k but that strongly depends on my free time. Chakotay seems to be close to release, so that might boost modding moral for Nexus nicely, hopefully. Some huge news post promoting all mods would be surely great thing and if my English was not so crappy, I would make such post myself.

Lovely bundle, very lovely and most of all lovely games. Madness of the Saints Row The Third is needed madness... at least, for me.

Mod Development / Released Mods / Re: BSG Mods all dead on Moddb!

« on: November 16, 2012, 23:28:11 »

I think, we should try to bring BSG mod back to ModDB. Battlestar Galactica : Fleet Commander for Homeworld 2 is back there and ModDB have not stopped them (yet at least). It might be worth a try to add it back there with some latest build and changed name and then wait what might happen. What do you think? Should we try to bring this incredible mod back?

EDIT: Never mind, BSG:FC has been taken down from ModDB

Example - Railgun Efx from SG:WB

at universe/engine/efx.ini (or mod_efx, if you want original Nexus efx working with your mod too)

EFX 4  // Railgun

   NoModColor /// Color will not be changed by race
   STRIP
      Texture 11 /// See manual about this
      Length 6 ///Self-explanatory
      Radius 12 ///Self-explanatory
      Color 1 1 1 ///Red Blue Green colors
   STRIP

   SOUND
      Index 207 208 /// From universe/engine/sounds.ini
      Level .5 ///volume
   SOUND

EFX

at universe/tactycstipes.ini

DEVICETYPE 5
   Name "Railgun"
           .
           .
   Start 2 0 3 0.1
   Travel 2 800 4 7.2 ///Third number is the number of the effect (1st type, 2nd speed, 4th size)
   End 1 1000 5 0.5
DEVICETYPE


I really recommend to go through efx part of modding manual again because efx part is quite well explained there.

Game Assets / Re: Updating planet meshes

« on: November 09, 2012, 01:03:09 »

I have finally find a way to add the night texture part, well sort of. It is quite easy solution actually. Instead of trying to make x_night properly work on the new mesh, this texture can be added as alpha channel (with inverted color) for planet's main texture. Here is working demonstration...

Try mission editor because that one displays error in almost every case.

Without error message, there are some possibilities that I can think of:
1. Not enough weapon slots for your weapons
2. Duplicate DEVICETYPE number or name
3. Missing effect for your weapon (wrong effect number/missing textur)
4. Missing weapon mesh

Check those and you might be able to find the problem.

Well, what is it that you need to know? Basics, anything specific, errors?
Do you have modding manual? (http://www.moddb.com/games/nexus-the-jupiter-incident/downloads/nexus-mod-tools)
You can find almost everything that you need to know about weapons there.

Hamachi simulates LAN connection, so use LAN gametype and you will be able to play with others in Nexus Hub then.

Hello everyone

General Discussion / Re: About the Mechanoid Angelwing's energy absorption ability

« on: August 27, 2011, 08:48:19 »

I think, I know what you are looking for:

Absorb <num>: It charges the ship’s reserve pool with the ’num’ percent of the shots that hit the ship.

This can be added to any shipclass, so it should not be problem to add it anywhere.

General Discussion / Re: Things to ask the devs about Nexus 2

« on: August 25, 2011, 09:43:24 »

I think, those are very good question. Source code would be great to get and don't think that is impossible. id software is going to release Doom3 source code and there are space games that released their source codes, so not impossible.


May I ask EmeraldReporter, how do you know answers on some of those questions?

Scheisse, It seems that does not work as it should. There goes the idea........ stupid system. Try anyone else to link it with his /her mod too, so we will see if that really works. Anyway, if anyone is posting any news, link it with Nexus Fan Group too. It is one of the biggest fan groups on ModDB, so we should use it to promote each other.

Arparso, could you link your news post "Nexus 2 back in development, looking for funding" with Nexus - Fan Group on ModDB? This way all modders should be able to link the news with their mods also witch would mean more support for it..

General Discussion / Re: Future of Nexus Modding

« on: August 17, 2011, 15:04:24 »

News post about major updates, articles about Nexus mods, support during MoTY2011 and later perhaps some financial help with hosting. It will be for adding promo banner under our ModDB news post and on same Nexus mod spaces at least.

We don't need to add it extremely visible here, you can just make some small area like "our partners"  for it. No need to make it popping up on every step.

General Discussion / Re: Nexus 2: Funding timeline

« on: August 17, 2011, 11:06:16 »

I have a crazy proposition for you all: What about to a big pledge as a group? You might ask why, well, reasons are simple - Bigger pledge and REVENUE SHARE. Again, you might ask why and what for. I'm certain, there are people like me that want to pledge more then €250 but they won't do it from practical reasons. Personally, I would pledge €1000 (maybe €1500) but I just won't do this because of no practical gain. If we pledge as a group, we will gain Revenue Share witch we can use for funding things as web hosting, MP ecosystem for old Nexus TJI and such things and the rest of Revenue Share would be divided to pledgers respectively.

Thoughts?
