X-Tended - Terran Conflict (XTC)

[stemardue]

@ricky69

the problem with that video file, as Cycrow already said, is that it is a whole long video file containing all the video snippets you see in game.

Those clips are timed and the game accesses to them via time codes, so there is no way of editing it without messing up all the other video files. Unless you append to it some new clips (or pictures stills) and then are sure to recode it back to the original format. Believe me, it is a titanic work and no grant of success.

Then you should replace all the time coded calls to point to the new scenes, thing i'm not even sure that might be done... (don't know if there is a Tfile listing those or if they are hard coded - and personally i don't need to know since that 'mod' is something i think no one wish to waste time with )

Mmm.. That s a pitty

@enenra
Ehm i think so It could be with a few tipe of stations or only with the main races like boron and split as the terran solar system

Ho hum - I keep getting a Not Found / 404 error when trying to connect to the X-Univ. site.

I just hope that XTC will differ from X3-TC just as much as XTM did from X3-R.

[Arendee]

If I could make a request,

I think it would be cool to have a new type of carrier class or TL used for carrying bombers and corvettes. Something like a carryall from dune, or the aran. It wouldn't have that large of a capacity. Maybe like an oversized TM.

The force is with us! GREAT NEWS!
Good to hear you are at work.
XTM was truly amazing. When I first travelled through XTM's Akeelas Beacon I got an idea how big this beloved game of ours could be. If directed in an inspired fashion.

Now all that I can do is wait and send a prayer every time I play XTC and wonder:
How huge battleships can simply vanish in a ball of light every time they are being defeated.
Why ships must zigzag the universe and at the same time useless taxi services spam each sector.
Why dustclouds are used for colonization and not as hideouts.
Why anyone except Boron would want to settle in dustclouds.
Why stations are build without purpose in the middle of dangerous asteroid fields.
Pray that you might do all the things others cannot.

Godspeed Masters of Code.


Edit: I am not making requests (surely you have your hands full without listening to our wishful thinking), but it would be great to give dustclouds and asteroid fields a meaningful purpose. Something Egosoft has never managed to do. Ah, nevermind. Am I excited or what?

Hi,
I come up with another idea
I saw recently a topic about the return of engine flares from X2.. It could be awesome!!

[exhale99]

You could bring the old valhalla back

i hope they do. i already had to mod it into tc, amazing ship. better looking and more powerful then the tc valhalla

+1

But you can already do it through copying this .txt to your TC/types folder:

A couple of new shots for everyone. Us playing with the skins system. (Content subject to change as we develop the mod further.)

Well, it certainly looks far better than the stock pirate novas - after all, who says pirates only do red?

I particularly like how pronounced the changes are, easy to spot and distinguish the patterns.

And a personal note - i can read that. Do you propose anything?

[Aragon Speed]

Well while these will work in theory they haven't actually been tested in game yet. So not promising anything until it's in the game and working.

As I said, this is just us playing with the system. ^^

Generally speaking, following the good old fashion of X-tended, it won't be so easy to put your hands on the 'cool' stuff

[SNav]

It looks like terran military becomes biker gang.

that's a nice orange but if i was a pirate my ship would be painted from head to toe in "deep space black" with blacked out windows

[mr.WHO]

Does this Katana is a custom model with black hull only?
Or is she has a full texture upgrade that will allow us to have a full range of colors via paint workshop in our private HQs ?

It would be fun if you could make a texture upgrade for most of ships so the "paint workshop" would be finnaly useful (right now, only Split Capships have a proper texture that allow to have a visible colour change via HQ painting).

[Aragon Speed]

This is a custom texture applied using the skins system. How it will react at the HQ's paint shop I have no idea.

[supakillaii]

What, we got skins now?
o.O
Estimate #?
