Cheers guys.

and Hotsake, it's still listed as a beta on the forum thread, hence why I hadn't upgraded

i see.. so v1.30 compulsory then? I'll note that up front

Rogue · Post by **Rogue** » Sun, 13. Feb 11, 04:47

Seems so, I'm gonna do some more checking tomorrow (really need some sleep) just to verify it wasn't a conflict with anything else.

It's far more probable that it was something I screwed up since I have a knack for that, and I'm running a fair few mods.

Knowing my luck it was Immersive envrionments. Although that plus your gates almost blew my mind away when I went in PTNI HQ.

Yeah, he really should make an announcement or something. It's a release candidate (hence "RC 1") which means it's basically stable. More importantly, it's required for SPKs put together with the newest SPK creator, and on more than one occasion, he's posted in a mod's thread saying that the solution to a problem someone was having was to use 1.30.

Ah that must be it then. I made the spk using v1.30 RC1

Hi, these redesigns look great, I especially like the Babylon 5 Version. But is there a chance to make a version without visible event horizon? Just like the Terran TOAs?

hmm no need to really, you can go into
X3TC directory/objects/others/Cadius/Warp_Gate_B5
and delete the "wormhole.bod" file. That should remove the horizon.

Ah, ok. Thanks.

By the way, maybe it's a feature but ships enter a sector outside of the new gates (Babylon 5). Everytime I pass a gate I enter the sector at the upper left side (in flight direction) of the gate.

Those necro gates are huge!!!

addding the special ripple effect makes them look really good.

The Hub gates arn't changed either..

Great work..

Cadius · Post by **Cadius** » Tue, 15. Feb 11, 04:11

@Alex Corvis: Not really a feature, it's a bug I haven't figured out. For now it hasn't caused any gate related death.

@Retiredman: Yep big enough to allow a stock Valhalla to fly through without exploding. I've recently started a new game and since Hub gates and Terran Jump Gates only appear later in the game it's a bit difficult to test. So I postponed changing them til I could be sure it's not gonna cause any issue.

Cadius, what happened to the original warp gate redesign? I liked the one you came up with the first time. The large rotating blocks on the back would have been really cool. I love your new gates, but I was steering away from any cross game/genre mods. Do you plan on making a regular jump gate redesign (no themes in mind)?

Cadius · Post by **Cadius** » Tue, 15. Feb 11, 04:29

yes, there's a few more designs coming in. Will upload them when they're done.

Rogue · Post by **Rogue** » Tue, 15. Feb 11, 16:40

Aye the Balcora gate is my current "must have".

The Necron gates really don't look that out of place however. They certainly fit more in with the concept of "ancient technology" for me at least.

Pure jewels like everything from you

Is there a chance to install it without the Plugin Manager?
Im using different Fake-Patch Mods so i dont know if its running with the Plugin Manager.

I tried to unpack them with the Explorer but no chance.

Go on with this awesome work!

Killjaeden · Post by **Killjaeden** » Tue, 15. Feb 11, 17:56

Necron gate ... hmm looks quite nice.
How about a Tyranid gate? One that burps if you fly through.

Wonder what ES's TNBT will be like... would like to do a battlefleet gothic mod if its good and moddable.

Rogue · Post by **Rogue** » Tue, 15. Feb 11, 18:49

lol, Burping gate. I want one of them

paulwheeler · Post by **paulwheeler** » Thu, 17. Feb 11, 13:06

Just a heads up - once installed, I had trouble changing models or going back to vanilla in an existing save.

Removing them or swapping to the other model gave me the old save game corruption issue.

The only way was to go to a Terran sector with no standard warp gates. Save, swap them and then reload.

Love the models though - Great work as usual Cadius! Looking forward to getting more of them!
