I would hope we will aim to make it as bugless as possible in the long run ;-)

I downloaded this recently and found it to be a pretty sweet and accurate mod, i quite enjoyed it.

Did Infinity238 authorize his model to be modded?

MrSlinks · 09-09-2007, 05:45 PM

Ya - of course, we had to reduce the poly count quite a bit in the end! But I think we were all pretty happy with the result. It's a great model.

I also believe jmsprovan missed out a comment that battlestar Columbia has also been added. As well as the Cylon ShieldStar and Cylon PatrolStar (both models have recieved overhauls since the last release). Other mentions would be the Colonial battle raptor, Vulture bomber, Scarlet Viper and a new harvester unit (rather than the plain old shuttle we were using). These are not definitive, but spring to mind as absences when reading the above ;-)

And a direct link to 'the file to be downlaoded' I don't wanna shift through long closed threads!

jmsprovan · 09-09-2007, 09:49 PM

pictures, yeah i will post some tomorrow. we supply the link to our release thread instead of just posting the download because it usually leads to people complaining about not knowing how to install it.

What do you mean by "long closed threads"?

Nadesico · 09-10-2007, 12:00 AM

He means he doesnt wanna look for old Fleet Commander threads for download links and/or pics.

There is a small image gallery here:

and a progress gallery here:

(EDIT - newer trailer added)
finally - there is a youtube trailor - it might just give you guys more of an idea of the gameplay, although it was originally intended as a front end game intro (since disregarded). New vids are however being worked on as well as a series of inter-mission renders.
