Where are the downloads?
 

I think this is the 3rd week I've rushed to the library during my lunch period, and come up empty handed on SEV downloads. Where are all of you modders & shipset creators who usually upload something on a weekly basis?

Re: Where are the downloads?
 

Spaceempires.net has most of the downloads - in the Shipyards and Download areas.

The Balance Mod is always available at my site.

The Wiki has a few links to mods that are not hosted elsewhere...

SE5 Shipset megapack (currently 320 MB)

Multimedia pack (currently 150 MB)

Are you already checking specifically on your favorite mods?

You guys seem to have misinterpreted the question. He's not asking where stuff can be downloaded, he's asking what happened to all the new releases there used to be.

There hasn't been much in the way of new releases lately. What has been released tends to be announced more on spaceempires5.com and spaceempires.net more than Shrapnel these days.

One can keep track of new shipsets here.

Kwok , any thought of including any of these new shipsets for Balance Mod ?

Re: Where are the downloads?
 

That would not be a good idea. It would distort the purpose of the mod, which is not to add things to the game, but simply to balance the data. It would increase the download size of the mod. It would increase the amount of maintenance work Kwok has to perform, keeping more races up to date. And last but not least, its trivial to adapt shipsets to work as AI empires in the mod, making it not a very compelling thing to do.

Part of the problem is that making new things for SEV is much more difficult. The 3D nature is what does that. With SEIV you didn't need to worry about that so long as you had a presentable 2D image. 3D stuff is a different thing entirely.

The better SE4 shipsets were made from 3D models, though.
