We are happy to announce the release of Star Wars: Conquest 0.8 ! This version is basically a major overhaul of this mod with many of the models, textures, sounds and general gameplay being significantly improved. There are now 14 playable races, much more selection of armor, weapons, and greater variety of troops and town walkers. Sound effects and the world map were improved and we have begun scene editing so several towns have been modified and we integrated several mini-mods to make gameplay better. A list of all changes would be almost impossible but many people were involved in this release so I have tried to summarize some of their contributions below. This is in no way a complete list and there was a LOT of work done by these and others. I will attempt to better update the first page with a list of all contributors and please send me a PM if there is anybody I missed.
Geroj - models/textures (new alien faces, armor, weapons, scene props, scene editing for Naboo/Geonosis/Ryloth, the Tusken Raider Attack quick battle, etc)
Vector Dalon - models/textures (new space ships, scene props, scene editing for Yavin IV and Tatooine, etc)
TakiJap - models/textures (new cantina and ship battle scene, scene props, improved textures, etc)
The Happy Stormtroper - models/textures (new and improved imperial equipment, new rebel and generic armor and helmets, etc)
Barf - models/textures (lightsabers/laser bolts, clone troopers, battle droids, speeders, yoda/jabba, etc)
MartinF - coding (faction patrols, trade federation with ship purchasing and bank, after death camera, etc)
HokieBT - coding/textures/sound/etc (coding and trying to organize everything, sound effects, textures, etc)
Many others contributed as well including: HocusPocus (balancing item prices), Tyrinius (scene editing for Tatooine Moon\Fondor), Obi (code for new village upgrades), patkelly (NPC dialogs), Moss (textures), daerdevil (textures), Sibylla (leia hair and female face textures), -IYI-O-R-T- (weequay, darth maul face textures), Jedediah Q (face textures), Thorgils (clone era weapons), and many posters on the forum who gave suggestions or helped with beta testing. We really appreciate all your help.

Note: We were not able to include all suggested changes in this release so some feedback from posters have been noted and will hopefully be included in future versions. I'll see if I can post a list of planned changed in the next few days. This is still in development and so we hope to further improve the scenes and add more variety to this mod. If you want to help with this development then please post here or send me a PM, thanks!
edit: Music was one of the things that didn't make it into this release, so besides the theme and some cantina music there isn't any right now but will hopefully be included in a future version.
