[MOD] 7 DEADLY SINS : by DANMAN GAMES (DANMAN3712) ver 2.5 FINAL AVAILABLE to the PUBLIC!

The Ultimate Combo mod - featured in PC GAMER

from Sins Forums

Welcome to the 7 DEADLY SINS mod, as featured in PC GAMER by DANMAN .

 

Welcome to 7 Deadly Sins 2.5 FINAL for the latest version of Sins Entrenchment 1.053.
7DS can only be played at HIGH maximum settings. DO NOT USE VERY HIGH settings. This will cause a minidump. Also, there is an issue with Win7 64 bit. You will get crashes, load errors, or the game will not even play, with or without warning. Just keep reloading the game and trying until you actually get into the game and play. This is a Windows problem, not a problem with Sins or 7DS.

 

7 Deadly Sins is:

The ultimate combo mod, the "unoffical" expansion of Sins of a Solar Empire, or so it has been dubbed by the mod community.
The work of many individual modders working together under my leadership (DANMAN3712).
Nearly 4 years old and downloaded in various forms over 100k times worldwide and in 5 languages.

Together, we form the 7DS Mod Team and the backbone of DANMAN GAMES www.danmangames.com

Triad of Creation -Lapis Blackhole Generator and Spatial Compressor Wormhole Weapon

 

New Special Abilities

Capital Squadrons of 6 strikecraft; largely used by Hangars
Titan Wings of 9 strikecraft; also used by Starbases

 

Mobile Starbases -all races possess starbases that can move about the gravity well to interdict enemy forces -assault carefully.

 

12 Playable Races with their own traits that make them more unique, from being a total offensive race, to a highly researching race. Each race now has its own unique tactics of gameplay.

Trader Emergency Coalition- solely based on trade and swarming, with little military might
Corpo-Nations that have rebelled against the Trade Order. Their military might stripped, they have turned to allying themselves with various factions and hiring mercs for protection.
TEC has new Battlecruisers, mercenary contracts, and EMP shells that bypass shields to a small degree.
Trade Coalition Armada- the military arm of the Trade Order
Once the development arm of the Trade Order, they are now the last hope for the Trade Order and humanity. Their ships are bricks with extreme range railguns.

TCA has state of the art weapons on traditional capitalships plus the Dresden and Athena Dreadnought and Beta Kol Titan.
The Orion Unity- modified Orion and Advent Combine
Some Orion split with the Atlantian-Orion Combine to guide the Advent towards their ultimate evolutionary stage. TOU ships are stronger, faster and deadlier; They can even travel between worlds using the Phase Stabilizer technology of the Tempest Titan.
Ship research boosts weapon performance.

DARK FLEET- modified Vasari
The Dark Fleet is all that remains of the Vasari. Where the weak Exodus ran often and fought rarely, the Dark Fleet seeks total dominion through force of arms. Their 5 Titan ships roam looking for prey.
Play style is familiar with greater armor, firepower and destructive potential.

Imperial Armada- from Star Wars
Guided by a clone of General Thrawn, the wasteland armadas of the Imperial Armada can employ powerful Force Alchemical Technology and even unleash the power of the Executor Super Star Destroyer.
Can unlock Jedi and/or Sith Holocrons for performance boost to defenses or offenses respectively -and at the expense of the other.

Rogue Cadre- Playable, custom pirates
Rob, pilfer, and steal your way to greatness. The Rogue Cadre is a melting pot of human cultures, Advent refugees and what remains of the Vasari. They have gathered against the TCA, TOU, Atlantian-Orion Combine and TOC to free humanity from tyranny, mysticism and slavery.
Posess the Precursor Titan and The Machine -the latter capable of capturing capitalships

Arilou Vanguard- UFO race from the Star Control Games
Not being of this dimension, the Arilou do not rely on money and normal means of transport or construction. They simply spawn ships from their "motherships", and travel through Quasispace, which propels them at near instant speeds from planet to planet.

Ur-quan KohrAh Third Doctrinal Fleet- Death race from the Star Control games
Totally aggressive, the Korh-Ah are built for battle. They are all offense, and barely any defense. They focus on exterminating every race and every planet they find, and almost every ship is capable of boming from orbit. Their goal is to "cleanse" the universe of all other sentient life, anything that is not an Ur-Quan.

Ur-Quan KzerZa Third Doctrinal Fleet- Slaving race from the Star Control games
Unlike their Kor-Ah cousins, the Kzer-Za believe in a diplomatic approach, let alone old habits of enslaving entire races into their Hierarchy. They have grown from their 10,000 year old ways, and are more good than bad now.

Atlantian-Orion Combine- the ultimate race, the seeders of life (the gods)
The Combine are part of the original Creator Alliance and responsible for seeding galaxies with genetic data. The Orion are the protectors and defenders until the Atlantian vessels can be fielded. Their greatest strength is their technology, but the loss of labs remove bonuses gained from research.

Taalo Horde- Ancient Rock race, from the Star Control games
As if the universe itself groaned for a protector, the Taalo have awakened from a million year slumber only to find old allies -the Atlantians and Arilou stripping the galaxy of semi-sentient flo-metal. They are the ultimate enviromental defender with a naive sense of justice. They have incorporated alien technology into their asteroid bodies with great results.

Triad of Creation- Ancient Destroyers of Worlds, Galactic Enslavers
The Triad of Creation, the Dnyarri, Antaran and Lapis, seek to eradicate all life in the universe. They nearly destroyed the Atlantian-Orion Combine in the Ori galaxy by turning their creation -the Vasari- against them. They emerged from within the Rogue Cadre taking a sizeable portion of their population into slavery. Their fleets struck the Taalo and Dark Fleet with vessels designed for infiltration nearly crippling the two factions.

UPDATE:I updated the main post, with new graphics, and a complete, organized list of what is in the mod, and what is coming down the pipeline.I will update with new links as soon as the full install of 1.3d is done.NEW UPDATE to 1.4:As of right now, 1.4 no longer exists. I am switching to a new numbering system for everyone's sake. When ever a new MAJOR update is made, it will be in whole number versions, and small updates will be in decimal versions.So, the new version, will be 7 DEADLY SINS 2.0, and any updates will be 2.1, 2.2, etc.This way, it is easier to keep track of all the changes, both for myself, my team, and all the players.So the current version of 7DS is 1.3d, after this, the letters will be dropped. If a minor patch comes out, it will be 1.4, but any MAJOR changes will take place in 2.0I hope everyone understands what I am trying to say. I want things to be more simple, for everyone.DANMAN


seems logical. :P

i like the new picture at the top. :)

and i find that the marza does look a little weird. but it shouldn't take a lot of work to change it back to the original, right?

after this week, (its finals week, so lots of studying), i'll be able to help you out a lot more. :D

did you set the player home worlds?

Edit:

I was able to revert the marza back to the default design by just replacing the mesh with the one found in the game files. personally, i like the original better than bailknights.

Is the blackhole different from the wormhole? I think they both have the same particle effects but it didn't eat my ships in the wormhole
Reply #809 from Sins Forums Top
This is minor but when I went to go change my theme it was a TEC pic and two advent pics. Can someone check this out see if maybe i installed something wrong.

No, the wormhole is NOTHING like the Blackhole. When you find the Black Hole, you will know it. It may even scare you. It looks absolutely menacing, and has an eerie dying sound with it. Also, you ships will begin taking damage as soon as you phase jump to it, so you'll know.

Yes, this is a minor bug, but it only happens on the selection screen. Don't worry, the Vasari still look like the Vasari. I actually don't know how the bug got there, or even how to fix it. If anyone does, please let me know and I will get right on it.

its because the atlantians are in the second place which boots the advent to third and since they are both using advent pics it will look like their are two advents

mate the priates are to friging hard to beat need more ships (like larger fleet sizes)
i tryed to take a priate base with a fully upgraded fleet and lost with in 20secs
my cap ships didnt even get a chance to retreat back in to phase space
Reply #814 from Sins Forums Top
well i meant that there needs to be better ships that the tec can get
like bigger carriers and also which ship can capture the ships in graveyards ive researched it but dont know which ship to use
Reply #815 from Sins Forums Top
commander_dread:
It’s the colony ship that caps the ships in the graveyard and as for the pirates there meant to be hard and challenging (as the have stole tech from all the other races). But they are sill beatable and they have been thoroughly balanced so that the aren’t overpowered, u just need a biggish well equipped fleet now and not just a small task force as before. I personally suggest that u also have plenty of long range frigates as the have the capture ability (as this can still be used even when there drive systems are offline) the are also useful at taking out the defence cannons (as they are now more powerful) , but be sure to give them a good strong escort. :CONGRAT:

First, you have to research the capture ability, its level 6 civilian for tec.

Secondly, I was able to demolish the pirates with my fleet. 11 lv. 6 caps, 2 of each, and 3 kols. the fleet also had 50+ cobalts, 25+ lrms, 25+ flak, and 10+ of each cruiser. and my research was maxed out, in both military and civilian. Yes i know that's waaayy excessive, and the pirates were defeated very easily (i lost 3 cobalts), but i kinda loved the fact that they were like a big bad boss. no longer easy pushovers, but 'omg wtf, hax' opponents. :CONGRAT: I love the way they are right now. :CONGRAT:

Hey DANMAN, did you realize your mod is being modded? A guy named Leinad is doing it with his Epic Rebalance Mod. I figure it's quite an accomplishment to have a mod of your mod being created.

Keep up the great work!

Hi DANMAN,

I registered to congratulate you on your awesome mod, I love it (especially the Atlantians, I like having a few powerful ships way better than 100 crappy ones).

However, I wanted to ask you guys a question: How on earth do I beat the pirates? I went to their base with like 5 Uber-heavy capital ships, 20 big battlecruisers (the things the advent have as capital ships...) and a few others as well. I had no chance because they captured all my ships right away and I couldn't do anything against that. I have reasearched that "anti-capture" thing but it doesn't work.

Can anyone tell me how to prevent them from capturing like 20 ships in 20 seconds or how to counter that?

Maybe make a change so they can't capture cruisers or we can recapture...

Thank you. All praise goes to FourAcesII. He made the main screen, then I added in Uzii's planets and my Gas Giants.

CommanderDread:
They are supposed to be hard, very hard, much like a "boss" in a video game. As fas as the "recapture" research, it does'nt prevent your ships from being captured. You need to build the Long Range frigate of whatever race you are playing, and they have the ability to "recapture" ships away from the pirates. When you face them, go after the ships that take over your ships first. Only one kind of ship they have can do this, so destroy them first by concentrating all your firepower on them.
As far as them taking over your "cruisers", then you must be playing as the Atlantians. This is exactly why the pirates and the Rogue are like a "menace" to the Atlantians, because the Pirates and Rogue have the ability to take the Atlantian ships and turn them on their creators! Try to build a fleet like I and Darkstar suggested, and try again.

I'm having a heck of a time finding it, if it does exist...anyway, does anyone know if there is a comprehensive log of what's changed in this mod?


I don't know what you are talking about, so please explain further.

Yes! Isn't that great. I gave him my blessing, and I am deeply honored by this.

First off, thank you very much for your kind words, and I am very glad you like the mod. Secondly about the pirates, like I just said, make sure you bring lots of LRM frigates with you, with the "recapture" ability. When you get to the pirate base, concentrate on the ships that have the "take over" ability. Once they are out of the way, you don't have to worry about losing ships over to the pirates. Also, if you build your race's Supre Weapon, fire it at the base before your fleet arrives. It may be enough to give you an advantage. Bring lots of guns, even your entire fleet if you have too. If you are playing the Atlantians, bring lots of Sekmets, as they are strong against the pirates. Bring the Osirus, as it can take a beating before it dies. Any other races, bring lots of Battleships, and lots of carriers. Send out waves of fighters and bombers, and make all your ships fire at one ship, picking off the pirates one by one. You should win then. Hope this helps!
Remeber, the pirates are a "menance" to the Atlantians, because they can use thier technology against them, which makes them so dangerous.
Good luck!

DANMAN

1. Capture the pirate ship which has capture ability first!
2. When you find your ship been captured, disable it's ability and auto-attack, and order it withdrawal.
