AI is easy enough now after 4+years but I cannot simply do AI for mod projects that don't wish to update their code.

I don't know where the proper thread is to discuss this topic, but this is a topic that is still of interest to me.

First of all: What is "AE code base?"

The last time I heard of AE, it meant 'Area Effect,' but that was a long time ago.

Thud Bud:

1) You have suggested here and elsewhere that Kaveman's Tyranid Mod is on track and that it will be made 3.10 compatible and SoulStorm compatible. I was hearing rumors or vaguely remember that there was a SoulStorm version of that one somewhere. Is that correct? I assume that if there is a SoulStorm version, it will be rather quickly and easily made 3.10 AI Mod compatible? So, we can probably expect it to fall safely under the SoulStorm Combiner Mod at some point?

2) I have noticed that you have picked up the Harlequin Mod and brought it here to the Revora Forums. Is it safe to assume that the Harlequin team will put out something that is SoulStorm compatible and thus come with the 3.10 AI Mod and be SoulStorm Combiner Mod compatible at some point?

If you have these two and a Combiner Mod to combine them, then you have your core upon which to build and add anything else later on.

For myself, of all the Usermade Race Mods, Kaveman's Tyranid Mod was my favorite. I just took to it like a duck to water, and I liked playing as the Tyranids, back in the DC days. This is indeed the first one that I would like to see SoulStorm compatible and the first one that I would like to see as the core of any kind of SoulStorm Combiner Mod.

In many respects, my second favorite Usermade Race Mod was indeed Shin's Harlequin Mod, and I liked taking screenshots of it and watching it in action, and even playing as the Harlequins from time to time. Thus, I would indeed like to see this one be the second Usermade Mod to make it into some kind of SoulStorm Combiner Mod. If we could play the Harlequins and Kaveman's Tyranids together at the same time, that would be really cool, actually.
