what do i download?
krisvek
i've tried and tried, and I still just cant figure out what all exactly is going on with this mod....pds, ngcs...what is the newest thing? what do i download to get the experience?
 
Thorin
The newest thing is the PDS: AS mod. We're still workign on it.
 
krisvek
ok, thanks Smile and there's an early version of it out, correct?
 
TelQuessir
Early, with a limited ship and equipment selection but nevertheless representative of just about 75% of it when complete. You simply need V7.5 now, and 7.6 next month.

Note that Hiigaran ships will be developed by a separate team - so ship performance and handling might be very different between the Hiigaran and Vagyr releases.

This adds realism, in that 262 Armada (represented by the 7.6 order of battle) has not encountered HGN forces yet.

something I'm confused about is why the original PDS mod is so large, I think it's around 70mb, when the PDS-AS/7.5 mod is only 8.16mb.
Does this mean that PDS v6.1 (i think thats the one I have, I'm not on my PC at the moment so I can't check Pfft) had more stuff in it than this new one. Or are the new versions of the mod being released just incremental patches for the bigger PDS files?
 
TelQuessir
Bigger does not mean better. Small can be good too.
 
t00thPIK88
Yeah I realise that, but it just seems like a huge drop in mod size thats all Smile

Anyway, at the moment I can't download the current PDS-AS because FileFront is doing maintenance apparently:

"PDS-AS(V1) 7.5
This file is currently unavailable while we perform server maintenance."

Quoted from the site. Anyone else having this problem? It was the same last night too. It's not the whole site, just a few select files by the looks Sad

Filefront issues are sadly not news to us. We advice patience on this matter.

Within a week or two all hosting problems will be gone, since I will be registering a couple of accounts at www.servage.com.
All files will be, if Tel approves, copied there for download redundancy.

So what's the difference between PDS V8.0 Phase I Beta and PDS-AS(V1) 7.5? They're both listed on http://hosted.filefront.com/telquessir but the 7.5 version is for some reason newer than the 8.0 one.

Edit: Oh, and FileFront seems more buggered than usual...
Could anyone make a torrent and seed the mod?

You can't link to something that's on your hard drive. Smile
Search google for "free image hosting" and upload your picture to one of those sites.

Narog. You are in error.
In fact avatars CAN and SHOULD be uploaded from Your own PC.

"hey look free ion cannon particles mum can i have some"
"no dear you will get hurt "
"no i won't mum they are only coming from that ion cannon frigate over there."
 
Narog
I didn't know that the forum allowed for uploading of avatars, if I did I'd have suggested that instead.
Nevertheless, I am right about the fact that you can't link to something that's on your hard drive if you want other people to see it (his link was something like C:\My Documents\pic.jpg).

Edit: Anyhoo, about that torrent? Wink
