I've revised the Executor and Eclipse for 1.1. Download the file below, and extract it in the XML folder.

I suggest adding in some details about what these files are for.

From what I can see, adds an upgrade for both Vader and Palpatine.
Vader can upgrade into an Executor-class SDD named (naturally) the Executor.
Palpatine can upgrade into a sovereign-class SDD named 'Eclipse'.

Very cool. Thanx for this. Vader just doesn't feel right without the Executor. :grin:

Yeah, it's an upgraded version of Kalebs mod for 1.0. He added them for empire too, and they were present in PR E

For the record, it is an addition of the Eclipse for Palpatine, and the Executor for Vader. I just updated the 1.0 files.

Maybe you/we should put together PRE for 1.1. This, land revisions, etc.

Great minds think alike :] I meant to introduce such a mod later on, as various mods for 1.1 are released. For now, there are simply too few of them, and they are touching diffrent subjects, so no overlapping files :evgr:

Well, OK. We'll get it done eventually, though. I'd say to release the land mod as that.

Will it get through in next one? I'd like to encourage you to use some of our job more... We really do appreciate what you have done to enhance FoC, that's why we created PR E - to allow you to focus on more important matters, while we do the basic job. I'm also thinking about icons for space units, Kalebs' bigger maps etc. Things like this can sometimes take a lot of work, so there's really no point in you repeating such a basic job - if you can do something more ambitious instead :thumbsupsmiley:

Definitely. I know you have so much to do (I'm amazed how much you did on land), and I'd rather you turned little jobs like these over to us.

Well, adding in the Executor isn't something that would take me a terribly long time; I just didn't properly get to hero changes for the last release. The bigger issue with using your changes is version control - I'm no longer running v1.1, so I'd have to merge all the changes in manually with UltraCompare, which is a pain (did it a couple times on the campaigns since both of us were changing them at the same time). I prefer to keep all the XMLs "autonomous" with respect to a certain team member to avoid those kinds of situations, which used to just be me, but I've since "ceded" the campaign XMLs to Ghost, for example.

Er, anyways, so while we do need the help, it isn't with coding. How comfortable is everyone with Photoshop though? I might have a community project that would help us out quite a bit...

Any chance we can get an actual Eclipse model with all of its 10 gazillion hardpoints?

(Waits to hear PR's screams of agony because of the coding.)

Hmm... no thanks :thumbsupsmiley:. Wouldn't you rather have a new cruiser or something though?

What about Lucrehulk? Not that it's really needed, but Death Star is such a nice novel... :thumbsupsmiley:

How about a new model for the Victory...the stock one is ugly...and I know they're out there somewhere...

Either way, the new release looks great Phoenix...keep up the good work!
