posted on June 6th, 2009, 7:13 pm

Hi all I would like to create a mod for Fleet Operations. This mod will hopefully add or change many of things that we have asked for such as:
- More ships / stations
- Rebalance
- AI updates
- GUI updates
- Special Weapons
- etc.

If any one is intrested in helping either pm me, reply here or email me

Create a mod for a mod?

Since this is a community project, why don't you get stuck into the project?

well atm the moment I'm looking trough the files and trying to figure out how everything works and I'm also reorganising the odfs (in file and folder structure).

But as the community have brought up some good ideas or suggestions that we can do with the crrent codes then I thought it would be a good idea to get a team from the FO community who could help by working on the ideas that we can do.

Not to be a stickler(or a pessimist ), but I don't think we are allowed to, or even advertise for one for that matter, but in all fairness I do think it would be cool to see a FO mod that went in another Direction.

I'm really good at making some types of Special weapons. Also I can do some odf revising as well. (Just give me a dictionary for any code lines that are not in stock armada 2 and I'll be cookin up some good special weapons... or super weapons)

Stats (out of 100):
Odf programming Value: 67
Spr programming Value: 43
Texture editing Value: 21
AI programing value: 8
Readme construction Value: 76

[move]Just mail me If I qualify.  [/move]

Hmm i might be able to help port so A2 ships into FO. However i dont see any point in trying to rebalance  the game as it will take more time than we have in between FO updates.

well if you guys wanna help then thx i can do:

poly reducing
texture reducing
jointing
glows
odfs (ships stations)
build buttons
wireframes (ones with system glows)
admrial log pics
gui (basic)

well we need to make ideas and decissions on wot needs (or what we want) doing

What would be the theme of this mod? Mirror universe or dif timeline? Like for example FO is 30 years past the events in nemesis right?....so what would be the them of this mod?

posted on June 8th, 2009, 9:58 pm

I would suggest 5 years after nemesis. which would still allow for the Remans.

im mostly intrested in coding but i can do a little photoshop stuff. Also do you want to discuss it over emails/pm or over the forum. Ive got a couple of ideas of stuff to do that shouldn't be to hard, however would love to hear yours.

i think forum would be better so others can see wot were up2

some of my ideas are
-removing the mixed tech yards
-adding mixed tech research stations
-adding new avatars
--terran empire
--reman rebels
--cardassian
-new ships
-new tech

my idea was to add various ships to the fed warpin. And the other one was to change all the mixed tech so each race you allied with would have a mixed tech ship, like the miranda 2.

My Idea of a cannon "Distress Call", would be six or so ships selected randomly from a pool of ships including Experimental ships, build able ships, and older TMP - DS9 ships.  I'm not sure if it should act as an ability where the ships come and stay for a short time and be under an AI control and guard a selected area, or come and be under your control for a short time then leave.  Both are easily possible.

Cannon? it usually just the enterprise that responds to the destress call. Anyway thats too many and i really like the way it works now it just needs more ships

Just the ent?  Thats because the show is about the Enterprise.  Any way, I like the Idea of warping in a fleet instead of a couple of ships.
