Homeworld 2 modding
-
Hi. So I know this is a Freelancer site and we mod FL, we does someone per chance know something about HW2 modding? How to put ships and turrets for example into the game?
Volken’s topic made me think about to start mess around in HW2. Just imagine, HW2 engine, effects and Freelancer capitals and snubs with more realistic proportion…epic FL battles in HW2 way. So damn cool not to try.
-
Interesting idea, certainly the HW2 game scale is much better than FL, try this link for HW modding tips

The problem with Relicnews and HW2 modding is, that even there are many tools and programs, there are limited or no way to acquire them. The links are 404, broken, missing, old, outdated, etc. The tutorials old or messy. TSP is a modders heaven when it comes to accuracy and tool compared to Relicnews.

It must be said that HW2 modding is pretty much dead, even compared to FL. Modders are few and far between, newbies are nonexistent. Most of those who still mod moved on to newer games like SoaSE.

I for one like Homeworld more than SoaSE so I’m surprised to find out they have such poor support for mods.

Homeworld 2 is LUA encoded, you can easily learn with some ship codes and make a synthesis with them, ships states are in .ship format and can be opened with notepad.
@Volken : Or you can use the research function in relic new forum, In homeworld 2 modding section.
HW2 modding isn’t dead at all! Look at mod db, there is mod under dev and relased.
Kuze I recommend you to contact silliconworm who created Complex Simple mod, here is the mod link : http://www.moddb.com/mods/homeworld-2-complex-simple.
