i know this is probably stupid but...

is there a way to retrofit the SC3 storyline, quests, sidequests, etc...  into the SC2(UQM) graphics engine?

in other words can there be a mod made for SC2(UQM)  to make it SC3?

i think if SC3 was shown that way, people wouldnt hate it so much.

and that way you could preserve the way everything is supposed to look.
i already have ideas to do it(instead of making a new uqm game mod that i was planning)
but i just dont know how to code very good, and im waiting for the final release.
i would do graphics right now, but i have no idea what you guys might be changing for the next releases.

the mod could be called...            KQM : Kessari Quadrant Masters  Wink

Yes.  They would.  Why?  because the storyline was absolutely horrid...

Honestly, the game blew.  Be better off making an entirely original spinoff.

Because we don't want to be reminded of SC3.

I think the SC3 story is copyrighted, so I don't think you are allowed to copy the text and then distribute it for free. Other than that, you'll have to change some of the SC3 gameplay (starmap, colonies, fuel/resource management) to fit the SC2 gameplay. The gameplay is pretty different, so it's not a trivial task, I think.

It wasnt the graphics/interface I dont like about sc3, its the races/ships/story line.

And sc2, though awsome, can be sequeled. It would just require some creative genious, talent, and a team that can get along.
