Mod Versions

With many more bugs being fixed, we have now reached sufficient stability in the Alliance of the System Lords to finally bring it to the stable version of the mod! We have now also added new land upgrades (most for GC), improved mod start time and fixed SG1 going in respawn in GC when only one member died. Various ground maps have also been improved and we've added more stuff on them for you to discover. See below to get the full list of improvements and fixes.

This patch introduces a new galactic conquest - Pegasus Prelude- to the stable version of the mod. Pegasus Prelude is a space-only GC that can be played as Ancients and Wraith 10.000 years before the Tau'ri first visited Pegasus. It depicts the rise of the Ancients, the war against the Wraith and, finally, their demise. Furthermore, it greatly enhances the visuals of space battles: Not only are all ships and structures capable of casting shadows, we have also given our Goa'uld fleet a major overhaul by replacing nearly all of the existing models with new ones. Lastly, some of our questionable English translations have been improved by community member Boriss for better readability and our AI got yet another big update allowing it to use the majority of unit abilities intelligently in battle.

-- Removed STORY_TEXT for the finale hint and instead made the story log pop up
-- Reduced delay between conquering all three planets and the Athos/Orakis story logs triggering
-- Changed Prereq of Athos Story Log to finale-root, so it doesn't break if the orakis log gets disabled.

This patch incorporates a massive rework of our xml structure. We heavily worked on increasing the stability and load time of the mod by fixing countless errors that have accumulated over the last years of constant TPC development. Not all crashes have been fixed but there is a noticeable performance and stability boost with many fixes enhancing the general gameplay. Most important fixes in this patch encompass a game crash when playing with more than 6 players/AIs. For Steam users, we were also able to fix non-working shaders which caused many planet backgrounds on tactical maps to appear in bright green. Furthermore, the Dakara Wave Mode map received a major balancing update.

- Re-exported Map_Planet_UnknownSector.ALO to add a missing starbase marker

Effects:
- Replaced several non-existing explosions with a newly created explosion
- Fixed countless incorrect shield hit effects

Shaders:
- Added shaders that were part of the last official Steam patch to the mod so non-Steam users can benefit from the changes as well
- Added our custom shaders to a meg file so they will be recognized by the game (this fixes all green planet backgrounds!)
                
                
                
                    
Code
                    General:
- Removed files listed in the GOF that don't exist
- Deleted some Star Wars units that referenced to a non-existing variant
- Removed a lot of un-needed vanilla files that were still loaded through our GOF. This resulted in further deletions and changes in the GroundUnitsStarWars.xml

Factions:

- If placed in different files, Steam and retail versions of the game read the factions from units pre-placed on a map in a different order

- Adding more factions as this will result in multiplayer crashes with too many players; we had to delete some factions to fix everything

Preface ================================================================ We thank you for downloading the mod "Stargate Empire at War- The Pegasus Chronicles" and we hope you'll have fun playing it.

Feel free to visit us on the internet: URL=http://www.stargate-eaw.de/ We gladly receive your new-found bugs, criticism and ideas at the site's forum. ================================================================ 2. About Stargate Empire at War - The Pegasus Chronicles ================================================================ The SGMG hereby introduces its latest mod-project. "Stargate Empire at War - The Pegasus Chronicles" is a total conversion of the popular "Star Wars Empire at War: Forces of Corruption". All currently available factions will be replaced by other factions of the Stargate-universe. The mod encompasses: - 3 playable species: The Tau'ri, the Goa'uld and for the first time the Wraith - Lots of other, independent species like the Replicators, the Asurans, the Aschen, the Grace and many more - Countless new ships and planets - New and completely reworked sounds, animations and effects - Numerous new and unique multiplayer maps - Completely reworked AI ================================================================ 3. Installation ================================================================ 1. Execute "SGTPCSetup.exe" and follow the instructions. The mod will be installed automatically. 2. To launch the mod, simply click on the modlauncher shortcut from your desktop and press "Start". Alternatively, navigate to the root directory of "Empire at War Forces of Corruption". The directory should look like this by default: C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Empire at War Forces of Corruption or: D:\Games\LucasArts\Star Wars Empire at War Forces of Corruption Now run the modlauncher: "SGTPCLauncher.exe". The modlauncher serves the purpose of keeping "The Pegasus Chronicles" up to date at all times. Should there be any updates available you will be given notice. Finally click on "Start" to launch the mod. ================================================================ 4. Known Problems ================================================================ 1) Hopefully, there are none ;) ================================================================ 5. FAQ (Troubleshooting) ================================================================ 1) When clicking on "Stargate.bat", nothing happens. What next? Possible Reasons: I. Your game is not up to date. Make sure you have installed the FOC Patch 1.1! (http://empireatwar.filefront.com/file/Forces_of_Corruption_Patch_Update;73651) II. The mod has been installed incorrectly. Go to the root directory of Star Wars Empire at War Forces of Corruption and check the "Mod"-folder for a folder named "Stargate". If such a folder doesn't exist, the mod has been installed incorrectly. Download and install the mod once again. III. If you're running Windows Vista or Windows 7 and are using more than 3 GB RAM, the RAM-fix could possibly solve your problem. (http://empireatwar.filefront.com/file/Forces_of_Corruption_RAM_fix;107025) IV. You're using an older version of Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5. or are lacking it entirely. Install a current version. (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/de-de/details.aspx?FamilyID=333325fd-ae52-4e35-b531-508d977d32a6) 2) Will I be able to play "The Pegasus Chronicles" without the add-on "Forces of Corruption"? No, the add-on is obligatory. 3) I've found a bug, where can I report it? At our forum: http://www.stargate-eaw.de/index.php?option=com_agora&Itemid 4) I'm unable to download updates via the modlauncher. You have to run the modlauncher with admin-rights (right-click -> Run as Admin). Make sure you possess the necessary admin-rights. 5) The FAQ doesn't solve my problems. Where can I find help? We'll gladly help you with any problems at our forum: http://www.stargate-eaw.de/index.php?option=com_agora ================================================================ 6.

- Added missing planets to the Wraith Large Shipyard
- Reduce planet scale by .2
- Removed starbase stealth from some space-only planets (Adara, Tobin, Thaltus ect.) but also added it to others like Black Hole, Nebula or Maelstrom
- Added Orilla to Asgard Shipyard
- Added Replicator and Ori wake up code for Wraith AI as Goauld
- Fixed bug where supergate would not spawn in Tauri GC if you defeat the Ori quickly
- Adria and Ori AI chain modified slightly. No more duplicate Adrias. 
- Adria implantation will now take control of all Ori forces and planets when research complete. Have increased cost and duration of upgrade given that this could give you a big chunk of the galaxy. Also made it so Ori Ai activates if you take SSG before AI normally wakes.
- Added and fixed some Ori AI activation events in both Goauld and Wraith event chains
- Added Wraith AI activation in event of Ori or Replicators becoming active
- Removed Adria spawn from Supergate - now done via script
- Fixed potential bug where you could destroy Ori and not get the supergate
- Made the Goauld Eyes, and Wraith Bioreactor compatible with new ZPM loading system
- Fixed wrong zoomed terrain image for Iratus Bestiola
- Wraith Rebel Heroes must die before Wraith get theirs 
- Langara can now build standard mines
- Disable gate raid to Earth (Iris)
- Created a combat armour upgrade used for all factions and added it to Vadena
- Balanced defence of items more
- Added the MK2 naquadah generator as a limited buildable unit on Earth
- Naquadah generator MK2 is now required to get the sol/sleipnir. A MK2 to spawned, and then buildable up to a max of 2 when you conquer orban, lantea and have the daedalus.
- Fixed Indoctrination Camp does not increase income (resolves #3605)
- Set star- and ground base levels for moon base
- Disable spy network ability on M6R_867 and reduce Raspun structure slots
- Allow asteroid mine in asteroid field
- Make SG teams buildable on all human off-world bases in Galaxies
- Fix Missing ground and space structure slots on Rhenus
- Updated victory conditions for all three factions (issue #3606)

Goauld:
- Anubis has had a host of heroes added to his roster via event spawn. Before a hero can be recruited from their spawn world, said hero must be dead first. This has now been solved - no more multiple baal, for now ;)
- Fixed lack of shielding on Stealth Hatak

Tauri:
- Tauri Lantean satelite now fires 3x as fast with increased damage
- Balanced the BC-304 MK2 a bit more, and added it to the speed boost planet ability
- Balanced the MK2 upgrade - it worked out more expensive than the Oneill, and took too long to build.
- lighly buffed railguns for MK2, and replaced power to engines with a divert power to beam weapons ability. This takes power from rail guns, missiles, engines, and defences, and buffs the beams. Beams have been slightly modified in accordance with the new ability.
- Sleipnir is now slighty better balanced for the GC. Weapons have been increased to 80% the power of Oneill, and shield buff ability reduces weapon power further and regen is decreased more to reflect the 80% power reduction
- Slightly pimped Jumpers (land)
- Updated good/bad of SG-Team and Special Forces
- Fixed issue with Aretmis full power to weapons where it would fire 3x slower, but deal 3x damage, meaning ability had a net result of 0.
- BC304 refit added, which will deploy F302s. Requires Replicators to be active, an asgard shipyard, and an upgrade to an existing BC304 to be completed.
- Additional balancing for the BC304 refit and MK2. The X301 launching version will be discontinued once the MK2 becomes buildable, older ships can still be upgraded to the refit, meaning the main version becomes the refit, which can still be upgraded to the MK2 as before.

Wraith:
- Made ZPM Hive an upgrade unit like the MK2 and modified event structure accordingly. Now requires a hive ship, large shipyard, and ZPM in orbit. ZPM and Hive are removed after upgrade

Replicators:
- Re-add accidentally removed hangar hardpoints to repli starbase 
- Replicator infobox now fires when invading Sateda
- Fifth now got the nanite missile as ability
- Replicator nanite missiles now correctly convert smaller ships, frigates and corvettes, and other replicator ships will stop firing on them. Heroes, and larger vessels will only be stunned by the missiles for a short period.
- Increase Replicator_Space_Projectile_Missile.alo collision mesh size 
- Fixed an issue with nanite missile SFX and particles

Ancients:
- Fix Ancient_Satellite_Death_Clone scale
- Set max build limit per planet to 1 for Ancient weapons platform

Jaffa Rebels:
- Coded Jaffa Rebels Ground Building Barracks (with placeholder model)

This patch revolves around the release of our second story-based galactic conquest: The Alliance of the System Lords! The new campaign depicts the rise of Anubis, the fall of the System Lords and the beginning of the Jaffa rebellion. Will you save Earth from its impending doom or help the darkest of Goa�uld rise to power? This time, the battle will not just be decided in space but on ground as well! The galactic conquest encompasses 30 planets all known from the series, each one accompanied with a custom-made space and ground map. Nearly each planet comes with unique, handmade props, many with exclusive abilities and new dashboards, and some with special build options. Furthermore, the patch tweaks a few issues in Pegasus Prelude, tweaks ground skirmish, adds some more particles to ground and space combat and contains a few minor bug fixes as well as some under-the-hood code rewrites.

This patch aims to flesh out the last remaing issues in ground combat. We've added several new effects and sounds for the ground units and fixed many bugs reported to us. The easy AI now goes a little softer on new players, balancing has been adjusted once again and many missing details have been added. We've also adjusted the skirmish menu a bit, now always pre-selecting our mod maps. And while we were at it, we've added three new ground maps for you to play on: Vorash, Pangar, and Revanna. Additionally, we've also made the planet connections in the Pegasus Prelude GC visible so you don't have to guess the hyperspace routes. Lastly, the Asurans now also brought into space skirmish in stable.

Hotfix! - Fixing Pegasus Prelude crash on start - minor changes

This patch further improves ground skirmish by adding new units and abilities (Wraith foremost), improving balance and visuals and fixing several minor and major issues with ground battles in general. The fix for the long standing bug with the Wraith Queen not spawning in the Pegasus Prelude tactical battles is also included. Furthermore, it adds a new ground skirmish map - Yus Homeworld - and slightly improves the mods' performance, especially the load time on startup. Lastly, as usual, we continue improving our description texts: Thanks to community member Boriss for all his work on the English texts, and AbkanST for his work on the Russian translation and darkyuri for his work on the Czech translation.

Hotfix! - Fixed Pegasus Prelude crashing on start up - Fixed game crash after returning from battle to main menu or after being in main menu too long - Fixed Selmak not having textures

This patch introduces ground skirmish to the open beta! The main features include: - unique ground units over all three factions - all of which are based on units featured in the series. (In case of the Wraith we had to invent some units though) - 15 additional hero units: 6 heroes for Tau'ri, 5 for the Goa'uld and 4 for the Wraith - 30 new base building models: Around10 for each faction, each with neat construction animations and damage models - Completely new set of offensive and defensive turrets for all three factions - Amazing new animations for each unit and many buildings - Special Jaffa units with retractable helmets � just like in the movie - Unique features such as shield MALPs, Thor�s chariot, the Tacluchnatagamuntoron (congrats if you know what we are talking about without googling it:), or Transportation Rings which allow you to instantly travel to distant locations on many maps - Brand new walker vehicles for the Wraith that should catch the spirit of overall Wraith style very well - Many new �made from scratch� special abilities that are faithful to the series - Sound effects and music taken directly from the series for the most immersive experience - Stargate-based ground maps that were made with care to faithfully re-create iconic locations from the show. For Tagrea alone we created around 50 individual building types, including a fully animated train and the Gun Balloons that surrounded Prometheus. - 7 ground skirmish maps total and more on the way, which will be added later - Exceptionally stable performance especially in multiplayer � say goodbye to synchronization errors! Furthermore, the patch adds new music tracks to the mod as well as new speech sounds and sound effects to the space part of the mod. Additionally, it includes many gameplay improvements and fixes for the Pegasus Prelude GC (including all new planet ability icons!) along with a bunch of minor updates for skirmish such as infinite fighter respawn for all ships with hangar.

This patch greatly enhances the visuals of space battles: Not only are all ships and structures capable of casting shadows, we have also given our Goa'uld fleet a major overhaul by replacing nearly all of the existing models with new ones. Some of our questionable English translations have been improved by community member Boriss for better readability and our AI got yet another big update allowing it to use the majority of unit abilities intelligently in battle. Furthermore, Pegasus Prelude has finally made it into the stable version of the mod, accompanied by various fixes, beautiful new intro movies, a new background and various balance and QoL changes.

This patch adds a massive amount of AI changes and improvements to the mod. We have improved the AI on various fronts, significantly improving its performance in GC and skirmish. This includes a re-balance of Pegasus Prelude and will also benefit all future GCs. For Pegasus Prelude, we have also fixed the Asurans being nearly useless as they hardly killed any Wraith forces at all. Additionally, units use their special abilities more intelligent now. Furthermore, this patch incorporates various feedback by the community, numerous balance updates and several minor bug fixes and tweaks.

This patch comes with a variety of important changes: firstly, all Steam users will be happy to hear that we have fixed the problems that occurred when trying to play our custom TPC maps online. We have completely solved the issue so go online and battle your friends on your favourite TPC maps! Secondly, we have added a completely new AI to Pegasus Prelude. The new AI will be much more adaptive to player's actions, produces more units on its own and can construct all available resource buildings and starbase upgrades. In conjunction with the new AI we have also doubled the amount of ships the Wraith can spawn during a tactical battle (We halved their popcap-requirements). This should further add to the Wraith strategy of flooding the enemy with inferior ships as it was introduces in the Stargate Atlantis TV series. Furthermore we improved some events and minor problems to make Pegasus Prelude better than ever before. Last but not least we also fixed an issue in multiplayer which would cause the capture ability of SG-1 to not work properly.

This patch incorporates a massive rework of our xml structure. We heavily worked on increasing the stability and load time of the mod by fixing countless errors that have accumulated over the last years of constant TPC development. Not all crashes have been fixed but there is a noticeable performance and stability boost with many fixing enhancing the general gameplay. Most important fixes in this patch encompass a game crash when playing with more than 6 players/AIs and all tactical missions in Pegasus Prelude being broken in Steam. Aside from the now working tactical missions Pegasus Prelude has an improved late- and midgame without the Wraith becoming too passive. The constant money flow has been deactivated and many events have been improved and bugs were fixed. For Steam users, we were also able to fix non-working shaders which caused many planet backgrounds on tactical maps to appear in bright green. Furthermore, the Dakara Wave Mode map received a major balancing update.

Code
                

                    General:
- Removed files listed in the GOF that don't exist
- Deleted some Star Wars units that referenced to a non-existing variant
- Removed a lot of un-needed vanilla files that were still loaded through our GOF. This resulted in further deletions and changes in the GroundUnitsStarWars.xml

- Removed non-existing entries for ShipNameTextFiles in the GameConstants.xml
- Added Damage_Default, Armor_Default, and Shield_Default to GameConstants.xml

Factions:
- We have reworked our faction code (order, files, number of factions, maps, ...)
- If placed in different files, Steam and retail versions of the game read the factions from units pre-placed on a map in a different order
- It is important that the ORDER of the factions does not change, otherwise faction attribution in the map editor will break
- Adding more factions as this will result in multiplayer crashes with too many players; we had to delete some factions to fix everything
- This fixes major Issue #0002150 (7+ player crash) and major Issue #0002191 (Tactical missions in PP broken in Steam)

- Fixed wrong event (Hippaforalkus) being fired as emergency trigger for the final mission
- The Asurans-turn-hostile event should now work properly
- Updated Arcturus event so it can also trigger if the player re-conquers Doranda if he had lost the planet before
- Updated Atlantis mission map that had units placed with wrong faction attribution
- Re-wrote the Upgrade-Moros-Dreadnought event. Moros will no longer automatically despawn - only when you construct the upgrade

- Removed the (unused) Rebel AI from PP 

Dakara [Wave Mode]: 
- Replicators will no longer attack before the space station has been conquered
- Increased the reload time for the Goa'uld flash satellite
- Fixed an issue which caused player units to attack their own station once its attribution had shifted
- Increased the difficulty (more Repli ships!) (Issue #0002235)

The Wraith campaign has been massively reworked, various bugs have been fixed and the balancing is much fairer now for default and easy difficulties for both factions. While many game-breaking bugs have been fixed this patch does not fix the general instability of the GC. Save often!

Code
                

                    General:

    PP GC (Ancients):
    - Fixed an issue which would cause convoy mission transports being stuck at the exit point 
    - Slightly increased performance of the script at various locations

    PP GC (Wraith):
    - Added debug events for the Wraith story line
    - Removed the AI lock for the Vanir planet which caused the planet to have a red glow. The AI will not move there and the Vanir are allied to the Ancients anyway.

    - Tried to make the story mode service code more efficient

    - Significantly decreased the difficulty on lower difficulties. Especially the attacks at the beginning are much weaker now

    - Fixed Delphi not being registered as dead in the Gonta event making it unable to win

    - This also prevents the possibility of an incorrect text of the Ancients evacuating the settlement when they take the planet back even if Delphi wasn't present 
    - Also fixed an issue which would cause the Delphi-successfully-defeated event to trigger even after the planet was lost and the mission failed
    - Increased the chance of Asuran or Dreadnought attacks compared to regular Ancient and Vanir attacks if either of them are active
    - Added 'final hints' text strings to the story dialog so it would finally show up and not just show an empty log
    - Fixed an issue with the finale text not being displayed due to duplicate event names
    - The Athos/Orakis final missions will no longer time out after they have been played
    - When the final mission is won, the player fleet will no longer retreat
    - Orakis Mission:
    -- Reduced the difficulty for this mission on Easy and Medium settings (Wave strength and number of defense satellites)
    -- The Wave spawn entry point is now a bit further away from the area that needs to be secured
    -- Added missing objective to secure the landing zone if they player killed the under construction ships before the timer was up
    -- Reduced the speed of spawned capital wave ships
    -- The wave ships will now properly move toward the landing zone

    -- The transport ships will now properly move towards the descent zone

    -- Fixed an issue which could cause a hero not to spawn as tranport escort
    -- Revealed spawn area of Melia and the first transport 
    -- The mission will now be lost when all Wraith ships have been defeated

Welcome to the open beta! This is the base version. For now the open beta contains the content of the stable public release plus the nearly complete version of Pegasus Prelude for everyone to test. This version is �feature ready� meaning that everything gameplay related is implemented. Also we fixed all the game breaking bugs found by our closed beta testers. However please note that the version of Pegasus Prelude in the open beta is of course still work in progress and that other bugs are still present including the following: - The GC is prone to crashes. Save often! - The Tau'ri tactical dashboard, GC space station and some other Tau'ri specific logos are still visible. The target of this open beta test is especially to know if the balancing of the GC is alright and if we missed some bugs. Therefore we would like to encourage everyone willing to share bug reports, his opinion and ideas about the open beta and the current Pegasus Prelude version in our new open beta forums. While talking about sharing... All members of our community are free to share images and videos of the open beta in all places of the world wide web! The only thing we would like to ask for is to be always clear that you're sharing content of a beta version of our mod.
