Homeworld:@ Classic 0.2.32.0

Description
Homeworld:@ is an alternate fan-sequel project. We take Homeworld 1 and Cataclysm as our starting point and build new art, gameplay, and story out from those, discarding all but a few starting-point elements of Homeworld 2. We have a playable skirmish mode with all new fleets, and even new mechanics such as drone frigates akin to Cataclysm's hive frigates. We also have a survival mode where you fight against ever increasing waves of enemies, and later on special extra threatening boss ships.

We have over 40 fully modeled and textured ships from a variety of contributors. However, new players should be aware that our planned ship lists are large and to fill out the gameplay we've put placeholder models in many roles. These range from untextured rectangles to partially finished actual models. If you're playing the survival mode you have the option of only fighting ships with finished art, though you can still build placeholder ships yourself if you choose to.

Another focus of the mod is its story content. Packaged with the mod is our own Historical and Technical Briefing patterned after Homeworld 1's manual. Download this documentation separately at this link[dl.dropboxusercontent.com]. Like the mod itself this document is not finished but already contains lots of information on our expansion of the setting. 100 years have passed since Cataclysm, so there's plenty of new events to cover. Development of the manual and future playable story content is ongoing. Portions of this content, along with information on ship stats, is also available on our reference site[hwat.pathstoeat.com].

Join our steam group if you want notifications of updates or the release of the remastered version.

KNOWN ISSUE: At lest one annoucer voice in survival mode appears to be causing a crash for unknown reasons. To avoid this, use the "none" setting in survival.

@xstar you should check out the remastered version at https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=636887139

Also I'm not quite sure what you're refering to with vertical undocking.

Awsome mod !

However the vertical undocking causes issues with the camera.

These are exceedingly pretty ships

@DarkAmbition: It's not true that only 300,000 people survived the war, at least according to the Cataclysm manual (I don't think that the Homeworld 2 manual says anything one way or the other). Rather, it specifically has a much larger number, "Nearly 550,000 of us survived the Exodus from Kharak..." (pg. 4, "History of the Hiigaran Landfall"). Depending on your opinion of the crew size, that corresponds to five or six cryotrays being saved (and in the latter case battle damage killing some Sleepers while they were in cryosleep, which the manual later directly states as happening).

I thought the backstory was quite good, very much in the spirit of the original manual, though I did notice a number of minor errors (misspellings, grammatical issues, etc.) that could probably use with some fixing.

@Commissar Danny: Standard or missile, and in what gametype?
Commissar Danny D99 28 Oct, 2015 @ 7:26pm 
I've got a bug. Anytime I try to build the ferron destroyer, the game freezes.

@Dark Ambition: Thank you for your attention to the story materials. There are a few points in there that I'll have to take a look at for future consistency passes, in particular doublechecking our retelling of the time on kharak and looking for the reference to population numbers in cata. For the rest, however, I must draw your attention to our position as an alternative to HW2's story. As our mod description points it, we have discarded all but a few starting-point elements of Homeworld 2, and as such any contradictions to things in the HW2 story materials aren't things we're concerned with.

That said, I'd like to thank you again for taking the time to read it.

@lukeo7533: Many of those issues will be resolved or handled differently in the remastered version. Not sure what's going on with the survival mode though. If you want to help debug it, add -luatrace to your launch flags and use a site like pastebin to post the contents of the Steam\SteamApps\common\Homeworld\Homeworld2Classic\Bin\Release\hw2.log file after a crash.

I downloaded this mod earlier today and I'm loving the ship variety and the switch-up of styles, I see that this is a mod in progress so the un-modelled ships will eventually have a look to them, I think it would be a better idea in my opinion to replace the block ships with default homeworlds models so that the game stays consistent and you arent left with giant missile firing blocks of death (despite how hilarious it looks at times), I only have one or two foibles with this mod however: 1. The race selection is a choice between "select" and "select" (I know how finicky and annoying LUA script can be) 2. Whenever I rev up survival mode the intro speech gets halfway, cuts-off and then the game crashes. could be my computer doing the second one. 3. The alien frigate with the description "winning" cannot be unlocked even with everyting researched. :steamsad: All in all it is a great mod, but the survival mode crash, if it's not just my computer's fault needs a big fix.

Some of the ships look great and some look rediculous. Even thought what a ship looks like in space does not really matter I rather have cool looking ships when i play.
