Ah found the issue

It also show up in case the ship doesn't have enough max health, upscaling the same design removed the tielr even with rising star on

@Foxtrot39,

Do you have the DOF_Shipset_CommonLibrary also subscribed and/or activated?
Foxtrot39 18 Nov, 2022 @ 11:09am 
hm I disabled rising star and still get the damage tiler on full health ships
dolynick  [author] 17 Nov, 2022 @ 11:00pm 
@Foxtrot39,

That's actually the damage tiler effect. Shouldn't be being applied to full health ships but I know Rising Stars has been having issues with the shipsets for a while so it's probably related to whatever changes are in play in that mod that is causing general incompatibilities with them.

Just passign by to say the texture are messed up with patches of rock all over the ship

Since the main shipset modpack is incompatible with rising star there isn't really an alternative

Thanks for the mod. :)

Will you eventually add HW1 ships also?

@ColSaid

Ah, yes I misunderstood your question.

This mod, like all of the DOF Shipsets, should work with pretty much any other mod (including Rising Stars). It's one of the main reasons the shipsets were separated from the Faction Add-On.

The Faction Add-On itself will definitely not work with Rising Stars. You'll have to pick one or the other. Fleet Calc might work with the current version of RS, but I know Dalo was looking to integrate it into RS so at some point there will be an RS update that makes it incompatible.
Mr Said 3 Dec, 2016 @ 9:36pm 
Oh, my mistake, I was looking at the wrong notes. I was refering to "Rising Stars" as not working with your Mod's. I do see that it's by another author, (thought I'ed let you know, sorry.

@ColSaid

I don't recall making a statement like that. The ships can be sized however you like. What is more likely is that Ships in the Homeworld universe (according to it's actual data) might be relatively small compared to other Sci-fi settings but if that comment was made, I don't think it was me.
Mr Said 2 Dec, 2016 @ 7:15pm 
Thank you for your time, but a question before you go. Didn't you say that this Homeworld will not mix with the other Mod's ? I belive you said that the scale was off, or something to that affect?
dolynick  [author] 2 Dec, 2016 @ 4:47pm 
Hi ColSaid,

There is no guide to Homeworld because it's just a shipset. Like all DOF shipsets, they only add a new set of ship models for you to use with any faction/race you like.

Game play changes are limited to the Faction Add-On. I have not added Homeworld races to the Faction Add-On because I haven't really played Homeworld and, to my knowledge, they don't require anything special beyond what the default races offer (choose the one that you think suits them best).
Mr Said 2 Dec, 2016 @ 2:48pm 
Hi there, ColSaid here.
Would there be any Guide's to HOMEWORLD ?
I've just got around to playing my full game of " Homeworld " and found some things have changed. For one Annex, pleased to see that the cost is high, very high, 20,006, and supprise's in Nebula's.
You do quality work. Thank's ColSaid (Ret.)

Trying a new compression level that I think should be a better balance.
dolynick  [author] 9 Sep, 2016 @ 11:53am 
@ein_FRE4K
They're not. My guess is you have not also subscribed the DOF Shipset Common Library. It's listed in the description but I see that I forgot to add it to the required item list in the sidebar as well.

all ships are:steamhappy: transparent

@grffnhwk
Not any time soon. I'm moving on to redoing the other shipsets in PBR now.

@Sergeant Blueforce
Honestly, it's too late now. Even if I were to change my mind on the matter, I have a lot of other work to do before I come back around to this shipset for any major changes.
grffnhwk 7 Sep, 2016 @ 12:54pm 
@Sergeant He's doing as much as he feels comfortable doing. I'm thrilled to see these ships flying among the stars again. Perhaps more ships can be released later. With the latest ground based prequel, I'm not sure where the homeworld title is going. I suspect they are pretty much done with it though.

@Dolynick Any chance Sajuuk will make an appearance? :)

I personally feel your logic is quite flawed. I really can not see Gearbox pursuing a legal case against you for porting some models and textures. If that would be the same as a game developer chasing after someone who made a model from their game a playermodel for Garry's mod. The only situation I believe Gearbox would feasibly attempt to file a C&D is if you emulated Homeworld's gameplay elements along with using their assets; only something like that would really affect their sales in any way.
dolynick  [author] 7 Sep, 2016 @ 7:57am 
@Sergeant Blueforce
You are correct. Still, same issue different company. Normally I might not have worried about it but Remastered is in large part a re-skin in and of itself (I know it does some other stuff too, but that's one of it's major selling points). It seems weird to offer their re-skin files for free when they are actively making sales of them.
Target Practice 7 Sep, 2016 @ 1:20am 
@dolynick (I didn't want to get a Cease & Desist from Relic because they're still making sales.)
You do know Relic has absolutely nothing to do with the remastered collection? Gearbox software are the current owners of the homeworld IP and developed the remastered collection in conjuction with BBI.
grffnhwk 6 Sep, 2016 @ 8:28pm 
I've been playing around with it, and great job! The ships look great, I like how you handled the corvette turrets and the red to blue engine glow is nice. The only thing that I noticed right away was the battlecruiser bridge on the left side rather than the right, but I can get used to it being that way. :) I love these ships.
grffnhwk 6 Sep, 2016 @ 8:16pm 
Here are my observations:
-In the race select screen. The homeworld assets are fully loaded right away, whereas the other Doly shipsets are still loading up.
-The new game loading time is faster for me with HW shipset only loaded vs either of the others loaded by themselves.

Not sure why that would be except my rig is pretty beefy, and may not get hung up on the larger files. <shrug>
dolynick  [author] 6 Sep, 2016 @ 7:16pm 
You guys will have to let me know how the load times are. This is the first shipset I've done in completely uncompressed PNG format. I'm not sure if it will help or hinder load times. I'd estimate that it would be about 120MB-180MB compressed for comparison.
grffnhwk 6 Sep, 2016 @ 3:18pm 
That is something I love about these guys. I've never come across a group of developers so responsive and so helpful to the community before.
dolynick  [author] 6 Sep, 2016 @ 2:52pm 
"I'm really diggin' your new shaders."

Direct that credit to Jon Micheelsen. He's the dev that created the rendering engine for the game, and he was gracious enough to donate some time creating the new shaders for the community on his own.
grffnhwk 6 Sep, 2016 @ 2:45pm 
Not exactly what I meant. :) More community members with a flair for moding wouldn't be a bad thing is where I was going.

I'm really diggin' your new shaders.

"Might be able to convert some Homeworld fans over to SR2 with this. >:)"

Well remember that everything in this shipset is from the original HW2. I did not use any Remastered source files. I didn't want to get a Cease & Desist from Relic because they're still making sales.
grffnhwk 6 Sep, 2016 @ 2:25pm 
Might be able to convert some Homeworld fans over to SR2 with this. >:)
vaaish 6 Sep, 2016 @ 2:21pm 
Thanks! Quite excited about this one :)
dolynick  [author] 6 Sep, 2016 @ 2:11pm 
Well I'm sure there are plenty of improvements to be made yet. That can happen over time. I wanted to get it out now rather make everyone wait indefinitely.
grffnhwk 6 Sep, 2016 @ 2:05pm 
I have no doubt they will look great. I'm serious when i say I've never seen these ships in anything but Homeworld 2. I'm itching to get off work to try them. Course, you've sidelined my moding endeavors for a bit now.:steammocking:
dolynick  [author] 6 Sep, 2016 @ 1:53pm 
Thanks. Hope you enjoy it. It's not perfect but some things turned out pretty nicely.
