I don't know if it is just me but when I down load this mod foer 1.15 I don't get the Icons that go into Galaxy Forge so that i can create my own maps

Sorry for that i forgot to include the galaxy forge icon folder in the zip file.

If you download the entrenchment version there is the folder included.

For the release i won't forget it !

So its time for an update again.

I finally got the pulsar and the blackhole to work under entrenchment. Version 0.8 is Entrenchment only, cause for the next version (which will be for vanilla too) I still have to change the buffs and abilities. As i want to make some new researches that reduce the effects from pulsars and blackholes. And so I just want to downgrade the stuff once.

Everyone who tried to work with researches and abilities may know this is the most difficult task in sins.

A special thank goes to Annatar and the IC Devs!

Annatar for his patient help and IC for getting the "DoDamage" instant action to work on stars with the next offical sins patch. I am looking forward to it, then also the pulsar star will work

All further infos about changes and the new download link are in the initial post above!

Finally some infos about the 4th scenario that is included in v0.8:

Scenario - Sirrius Odyssey - v1.0

travel further...

A new version (0.8a) for Entrenchment 1.02 is out!

Finally the Pulsar Star work ! Thank IC!

The 0.7 vanilla version is compatible to 1.16. You just have to copy the maps into the new GalaxyForge folder.

For updating vanilla I have to wait until a new dev.exe is out, because the v1.15 dev exe is incompatible.

I also started a blog on http://tohklidan.impulsedriven.net/ where you can get additional informations about this mod or discuss ideas, or stuff you like or dislike.

It would be great if you leave me some feedback here about this mod! So write a few lines and make me happy

TohKlidan,

Great job on this mod!  Having the Sol system planets that Cybdevil was working on was always the ultimate for me.  I'm not savvy at moddeling, texturing, etc so I always appreciate the hardwork people like you do in addition to your graciousness in sharing.

Call me obsessed with details, but I find the mainview icons a detraction from a realistic experience.  I keep LazySumos minimal mod on hand to unclutter galaxies in the mods I play.  One thing that I have not figured out is how to change the rotation of the planets.  Currently, they all rotate clockwise, meaning that the sun rises in the west and sets in the east for each planet.  Any idea on where this can be changed or is it hardcoded?  I've searched the threads and never encountered a solution, let alone, the question.

I want to help you keep your mod going.  Though my skills are limited, I do understand the basics of changing and merging files and am willing to learn more. 

This is my favorite mod!

Thanks for your post, rmkiefer.

Its good to know that there some people out there, that like my work.

No there is no such parameter I think it is fixed, you also can't change the speed of the rotation. But if you post your ideas in the suggetion thread for the next expansion, maybe the devs will add it. They also get the "DoDamage" trigger to work on stars with the latest patch after I wrote a email to the support.

Also I wasn't able to change angle for the rings of Uranus, the only things you can do with rings is change the colors and change the chance how often they will appear.

Arrgh double posted sorry.

just wanted to say i enjoy your mod Celestial Bodies and was wondering if anyone has a map of Sol. System that branches out to other stars looking for a large map? all the sol. system maps ive seen have been our solar sytem only.

Thanks

I have not found any map that includes sol and additional systems around.

But I have an idea for a map where Sol, Sirrius, Orion and Alpha centauri is included. 

Perhaps someone else has made such a map for this mod already, and will it share with us?

That would be nice don't have tons of time for playing and making a map when galaxy forge is up will take me what will seam like forever. PM me if you do make a map like that please would love it

I updated the Entrenchement version of this mod to 0.8b today. There are only minor changes and fixes. You will find the links in the first post.

Also all files are now hosted on mediafire. and I repacked the vanilla version 0.7 it contains now also the galaxyforge icons.

You will get one if the map is finished, but this may take awhile.

Is there a galaxy forge coming with it soon? You kinda forgot to add in the GalaxyScenarioDeff. file. The icons dont just magicaly make the planets appear you know.

But im glad that i finally get mars in thin game... one more thing, why is mars purple?

Edit: NVM. Found it in game info folder. But still. Mars Purple?

Someone posted this problem several posts before, that all planets are purple. But after I asked him to send me a screenshot, he never replyed again.

I don't know what the problem is, cause on my pc it doesn't look purple. maybe it is a problem with cybdevils texture, I just took them without any changes. Or it has something to do with the grafic card and the settings. 

I can post a screenshoot and my setting here, later today when i am at home again!

It might be the entity file. try changing the planetglow color. I would but im in the middle of my test of this game. Yhe planets really are great. exept a few texture glitches (zooming out you can see a black circle as if the planet was cut up).

I also have some more planet ideas. If cybdevil is interested to make them.

1. Mimas (Death Star Moon!!!)

2. Sedna

3. Dysromina

4. An Actual Ceres not an ice dwarf.

And more.

Ok so i checked the entity files and theyre like the games entity files no a mod type. Wierd...

Edit: NVM again its only some.
