This will be my second release, but it is my first project. I started it like 5 years ago, and it has been changing with the time.
Now it's time for it to see the light.

This mod is about a Great War between two mystical races: the CyberMag Warlords, a race based in a medieval knight-like society, but with a vast knowledge of cybernetics, robotics and magical spells; and the Demoniac Wing, a race of beasts, spirits, and mythical beings calling themselves "demons", controlled by the Demon Lords to destroy everything they find. This war has been fought for many thousands of years, without any final result.

In their fight, the Demons find a CyberMag Interdimensional Gate and control it. The Gate led to the Imperial Planetary Union territory, on another sector of the galaxy. They were being watched by the CyberMag years ago, without them knowing that.

Now, the Imperial Union is under Demon attack. The Demons will fight for the domination, the Imperial Union for defending its territory, and the CyberMag for stopping the Demon's advance, no matter if they have to fight the Imperial Union forces.

Here are some screenshots of the 3 races:


Imperial Planetary Union


CyberMag Warlords


Demoniac Wing

Post for any suggestion, I'm releasing this in October I think. Stay tuned!!

aka idmontie

Nothing matches... I'm going to be playing the mod wondering if these units really belong to this race. And lots of the graphics are just ripped from mods. Can we see the credits listing?

I'll just assume you asked RCX if you could use his graphics



Show them your butt, and when you do, slap it so it creates a sound akin to a chorus of screaming spider monkeys flogging a chime with cacti. Only then can you find your destiny at the tip of the shaft.

It's the goliath from Gundam Century mod. And you can call the "imperialplanateryunion" just the Imperials.

Yeah, now that you say it I notice that. Working on the color scheme for each race. And I rip off GRPs form another mods because I'm really bad making my own GRPs.
The credit list will be posted later.

I forgot about that. I will try to contact to ask him if I can use his GRPs. If I can't, I will have to look for another ones.


Well, the screenshots doesn't show everything this mod is, they just show some graphics of the 3 races. You can be sure it isn't just same Starcraft with another GRPs. I'm not implementing new systems like HIgh-Minerals from Eternal Duel to keep the game simple, but I think this can be a good mod when finished.

Keep in mind it's in extremely poor taste to use the work of others without permission. In fact, technically it's copyright infringement. Just giving credit in some ReadMe file does not cover you. I am fairly positive that on the GundamCentury creator's original site, in his FAQ, he forbid any use of his graphics in other mods.

Basically, unless the graphics were made freely available by their author (such as the ones in the database of SEN or CampaignCreations) or you are granted express permission from the author directly, you should not use GRP files from other mods. As an artist myself, and the designer behind an SC mod with many custom graphics, I for one would not want to see mine or my team's work lifted from its intended product and used elsewhere without permission. It detracts from the uniqueness of the original product, of which much effort was placed to achieve. I feel it is very disrespectful, and you will lose points with all honorable modders of the community by pulling stuff like that.

Seek permission, use a different yet freely-available graphic, contract an artist to help you, attempt to make your own, or just utilize normal SC graphics. Those are your legitimate choices. No harm, yet; this is all a learning experience. Good luck, I do wish you the best.

Thanks for that, when I started the mod, I thought every GRP had to be changed to be good, and I didn't know anything about property, so I took another mods GRPs and put them in this.

But now, with the GRP Database and my Photoshop knowledge, I think I can replace some GRPs that I'm not supposed to use.

Now I'm learning building graphics. Look, my first GRP:



Thanks for all the suggestions!!

That building actually looks really good, I look forward to seeing your work pop up around SEN. I just wish you would've asked people about these GRPs though, so that your (surprisingly well known) name wasn't smeared like that.



None.

So, did you remove the GRPs created by RazorclawX? Unless- You asked him and he said okay. Considering the Zeji mod is hosted on Campaign Creations already, I found it strange to find that you opted to host it here as well. But- To each their own, added credits that it was made by RCX and is from CC, which you didn't. But, we all learn, right?

Nice Archons though- Where are they from? Impressive. Your building looks nice as well.



None.

Demoncraft's release date will be delayed. Expect for a late 2008 - early 2009 release. Ripped off GRPs will be completely changed. Also, I plan to release 2 other mods before this one.
