NGGYU: The Mod

Most recent to oldest.

Introduction


Welcome to "NGGYU: The Mod" thread.
Here, I shall post my progress in this mod for your viewing pleasure. I will be trying to keep this thread as updated as possible in the latest things of whatever. Here, I shall try to post as many secret plans for world domination this mod as possible, although super secret mod plans will be kept secret for awesomeness on mod release day.
Not only that, but this thread will be something like an online notepad for myself.

-

The Plans


Here is the basic outline of the mod: 4 to 6 factions. 2 Terrans possibly, 2 Protoss for sure, 1 Zerg for sure, 2 Zergs possibly. That list is organized through original data sets for the races roughly divided into two, each.
The current list of races and their origin are as follows:
Shadow (Cult) - Terran
Greater Confederation (GC) - Terran
Zheng Di (Rightful Emperor) - Protoss
Usurper Family (UF) - Protoss
(Zerg; name unknown) - Zerg
(Unlikely second Zerg) - Zerg

(Below is the mod plan, for your viewing pleasure. Will be updated frequently.)

-

Plans for world domination:


-

The To-Do List


Give Finger Breaker his spell.
Change Manifest Prayer's spells.
DAT edit the Shadow structures.
FireGraft the Shadow Cult.

-

(You are indeed allowed to guess the inspiration for this mod.)
(Language used for Zheng Di: Mandarin, ping yin characters (without accents, unfortunately). Tell me if I've mistranslated any of them.)

4 relatively boring screenshots uploaded.

Currently, I believe I'm using Blue2 pallets for the lasers, which explains why they look a little strange.
However, I am uncertain of choosing the other Blue pallet; In a way, I prefer the strange ugliness of the lasers.

What do you think?

I will try to get graphics for this mod; however, that will be further down the line.
Still, I do have some ideas for which graphics I would like to use.

Never gonna giv....OH SHIT!

No offense, but the mod doesn't look that great right now. Perhaps I'd be more interested when you get custom graphics... I'm guessing that the reason for a lack of such a thing is due to a Phobia of iscripting. My advice - take your time, learn it, it will make everything a whole lot easier and better.



None.

Pff. Learn iscripting? Iscripting learns itself FOR me.

Besides that, BSTRhino was the one who inspired me to first mod. I'm pretty sure that immediately gives me a +1 in iscripting, don't ye think?

-

Again, custom graphics will come later. At the moment, I'm going to start uploading versions of this mod for archival and pleasure purposes.

Updated with the most recently compiled MPQ file. Should be runnable on all versions because of its lack of hard-coded edits.

I call upon the dark forces of the Shadow...

THREADOMANCE, FULL POWER!

I realized the following problem some time ago, but I never got around to doing anything about it. The Shadow race worker doesn't work, crashing because of a lack of a customized .LO? [?] file.

If anybody could be as so kind as to e-mail me a modded .LO? file for the Civilian, I would greatly appreciate it.

And while I'm on the topic of .LO? files, could anybody give me a quick explanation on how to use and properly add them to MPQs? I have LO?Edit, but I've never actually tried hard to dabble with it.

-

By the way, I can't remember what the Hell I was trying to do last with this thing. BUT I think I will be able to implement a new aircraft model that I made a while ago! YES.

A NEW VERSION has been uploaded.

The new version features iscripting, more DAT editing, balancing, and major TBL edits. IMPORTANT: the Civilian, Shadow Cult Weaver, has been fixed so as to be able to properly gather resources.


TODO:
Give Finger Breaker his spell.
Change Manifest Prayer's spells.
DAT edit the Shadow structures.
FireGraft the Shadow Cult.
*Finish Shadow Cult!*

3.a) Reaver / Hue-Lei Gui (Fire-Lightning Turtle) / Middle-to-High Tier Special Ranged Siege
3.b) Scarab / Hue-Lei Qiu (Fire-Lightning Ball) / Misc./Original/Etc.
Isn't fire huo (instead of hue)?



None.

Indeed, you are correct! I've changed the error now. Thanks!

Please lock this topic, I think I lost all of my data for the mod (and if not, then the motivation).
