Looks quite promising!

But, i can't resist a supplemental comment, no offense intended either;
"You must have a lot of time on your hands. also!"... cranking all of that work at near light-speed pace!

I may actually have a couple of questions about how you coped with "replacing" the default races to Transformers opponents straight onto the main setup screen - since it may be a workaround for the triplet themes i plan to integrate in X-Worlds.

Would you mind sharing that solution with us all?
And, thoroughly describing it step-by-step so that we learn how to apply the actual valid process?
(Things like; where the specific files belong, how the "paths clug" can be rectified, mod folder structure, etc.)

That is, IF you can find the time, foxthree! ;)

Yet, you did not work hard enough to spell things correctly.

Earth Defene Command?

Shouldn't it be:
Earth Defense Command?

ajoint

Is a space needed between 'a' and 'joint'?

If you capitalize Autobot, shouldn't Human also be?
etc...


Sorry, it may be a great mod.

But you should pay attention to spelling and grammar, even more so in your mod than in your posts. Both spelling sets are horrible.

Spelling errors may be overlooked in a post, to some extent.
But please, can't you at least take the time to spell correctly in a published work?

Doint worry I saw that and fixed that and any other typo's you should notice the changes.Note Im making three other mods right now this is not my most important one right now my Dune conversion is going to be my best work.Im very proud of it and to answer your question Zyxpsilon heres how I learned I took someone easles conversion saw how they did anjust did the same but with my own data.Its that simple heres everything you'll need if you doint have it already
[pix resizer]
sofar its the best resizer ive tried you can only do it one at a time though.
next [radtools],you'll need this to make bink videos youll be surprised how many big game companys use radtools the maker of halo use this.
and last but not least the [tech edit] file which can be found in the Galciv2 library.Oh just to be safe changing the raconfig file doint delete all the altarin resistance files like RaceImage02 because its hardcoded the same goes for the dread or the pirates minors.I had to learn that the hardway I hope that this helps.

In general, there is many ways found in any of these mods. I also took apart much of the files already into these zips and was able to grasp a few things of importance. It looks to me though that there is NO strict (or SD validated) standard upon which anyone can adhere.
The (very obsolete) Mod guide by CariElf has an interesting comment about activation of Races; simply by adding an (Ignore)1(/ignore) to any ***would*** pull it off the init process. Haven't tried that (or a few other tricks) yet, but i will once my races are mostly done and ready to be assembled into a coherent dedicated folder.

As for the graphics tools suggested - trust me, i've got everything i need from other projects.

Which reminds me of something obvious to some but hardly "comprehensible" to me (i may catch the drift later, but as of now, it really boggles my freaky mind!);

Minors validation. The raceconfig.xml has a fixed set (From Ak to Sn plus the DL) of 9. This, in fact, hints me about the option to choose (at game setting time) how many are to be included in any particular game. What if i simply want to replace all of them at once with a brand new set; by 1)overwriting the defaults or 2)appending mines to the list or even 3)deleting these race ID tags while inserting MY values.

See, it's almost as if too many trial/&/error mix-match designing steps have to be taken just to have a MOD work as it is meant to. Functional properties included.

Considering, i'm still at some early stage of understanding the whole scope of Modding tips and proper formatting issues... i'm extremely surprised there isn't an official guideline provided by SD which precisely indicates to us WHAT is the full MOD process and its numerous options.

Anyhow, i'll get there (probably more slowly than i want but eventually, i will). Thanks for the help above, anyway.

Fox it is looking good. If you need any place to upload it to and work on it or need a place to upload screenshots etc please consider the Galactic Core Mods site. We can happily accommodate the mod in its full version and you can use the mods site to show off various parts and changes etc. Link in sig :D

Fox 600mb is not too big for us :D

Just register over on the GCM site and send me a private message. I will set you up with an FTP account for you to upload to the server directly. All you would then have to do is link to the file you uploaded.
